I need advice. I have some personal matters that need immediate attention and I will not be able to complete orders during this time. Could be a week or more.
But I’ve only recently started receiving orders on a daily basis so I do not know if I should pause the gig or not. Will pausing affect me? I am a New Seller.
Please help

But remember either option you would use that will affect your sales. I saw many sellers have thousand+ reviews but their sale became 0 after pausing their gig or editing their gig. Most important thing your gig impression, views,clicks will decrease and it will affect in your gig ranking

I can’t weasel my way out of this one, I don’t think I actually have a choice. I’ll find a way to get back up.

Another option could be that someone else is running your account temporarily, but I don’t know if that is possible. In the end it’s all about choices, what is more important? I think looking from my perspective - that solving your personal problems are priority number one.

Hello, if you cannot complete orders of course pause your gig. You have no choice.

You could extend your delivery times to 21-29 days and deliver when you return. If you choose this, put clear notes in gig/profile descriptions saying that deliveries will take much longer than usual. This helps you avoid cancellations or poor reviews over people who didn’t see the extended time.

But will I even get orders then?
That’s an excellent idea though, that way I won’t lose my views either. Thank you so much for your response!
I don’t know if you’ll get orders. I have used this method to stay visible and orders slowed way down, but I still received a few.

It will damage your rank and possibility to get more orders. So I think you should be careful on it.

Increase your price range to increasingly high, or maximum so that it will keep buyers away. When you are ready to take the orders again then decrease the price.
