Giving your TPT store a fresh look can do wonders for your store and the revenue it brings in just think of your favorite people that you follow on social media, or anybody in the entertainment industry or even your favorite cereal brands. If you compare those brands from 10 to 20 years ago, you might just be surprised at how they looked. If you ever go into maybe your favorite people that you'd like to follow, do some scrolling and see how they've come so far in the last year or two. Brands are constantly updating their look in order to stay current and relevant. It's completely normal and important to change up your brand look in order to stay relevant in your TPT business as well. Today, we're going to be talking about four reasons why you should consider giving your TPT store a fresh look.

The second reason why you should consider giving your TPT store a fresh look is that you're not happy with it. Maybe you did freshen up your store a bit but you don't like how the colors go together, you might realize that the two colors you picked out and love aren't cutting it in the grand scheme of things. Or you don't like the fonts you chose to include on your previews or product covers. And maybe you know it's too bold or it's just really hard to read from a small screen. If for any reason you're not happy with how it looks overall, then it might be a good idea to give your TPT store a makeover.

Did you previously create only upper elementary products now you are trying to focus on middle school teachers. Whatever the case, if you're looking to cater to a new group of teachers in any way, it might be a good idea to give your store and brand an update.

These four reasons on why you should give your store fresh look is exactly what happened to me. In fact, at one point, I was feeling all four reasons. At the same time, it looked extremely outdated. I wasn't happy with how it looked. I wanted to appeal to brand new customers. And I definitely wanted more views and more sales. The store makeover that I gave for my TPT business wiped all of those feelings away. Before the makeover. I hadn't updated anything in my store for almost four years. I didn't touch it at all, there was no branding at all, it was just all Higgledy Piggledy, just random colors, no branding at all. So I promise you, it is never too late to give your store and update. If you're not sure your next steps of how to even go about giving your store a makeover.
