1. Launching with forty products
A big catalogue feels like readiness and reads like a warehouse. Ten good listings with real photos sell more than forty half-written ones, and they are quicker to fix. Add the rest once you know which row people open first.
2. Leaving products as drafts
The most common support question from a new seller is why the shop looks empty. Usually the products exist but were never published. Open the shop from a second account before you send anyone a link; you will see what they see.
3. Hiding the way in
The shop button sits in the bot menu beside the message box, and it is how most buyers will arrive. Pin a message with the link as well, and put the link in the bot description so a new subscriber meets it before they have said anything.
4. Prices without delivery
A price alone makes a stranger guess at the total, and they guess high. Set your shipping zones and a delivery line in the description on day one. It is the cheapest fix on this list and the one most often skipped.
5. Going quiet after the first order
The first buyer is the most likely second buyer, and the conversation is still open. Send a photo of the parcel before it goes. It costs a minute and it is the difference between a customer and a transaction.
6. Rebuilding the shop every day
Changing the theme, the order of the blocks and the copy daily means no version ever gets a fair test, and regulars stop recognising the place. Pick a design, leave it for two weeks, and change one thing at a time after that. The gallery on Telegram Mini App store exists so the first choice does not have to be invented.
