That’s a difficult question and depends on many factors

FBM or FBA
Private label or added offer onto top ranking asin
PPC used ?
Luxury / Seasonal products or everyday essentials

List is endless

To be fair, that question is like asking, “How long is a piece of string?”

As @The_Little_Shop stated, there are many factors as to what will influence your first sale.
For example, if you listed on a top ranking product, with the best price, it would probably take seconds.
However, if you list on a brand new product, in a category that is both high value and luxury, it could take months.

So if you provide a bit more information, you can get a better idea.

wow!
I’ve worked with Optics but it’s rare to see this in a home bar
All your products look fab!
Maybe ETSY could be an option?
I love your Instagram page as well!
If only the Scottish weather were better!

Just wanted to say that your products look fab! I also agree that Etsy and NOTHS would be perfect for you if you don’t already.

I would maybe start doing some social media posts, boost your brand. Maybe some product videos on YouTube, blogging etc.

Yous have a good start.

You could try the Vine programme. I’m about to submit a product for Vine - from what I understand you generally get around 20 reviews. Having some reviews for your product will definitely help sales. If you are on Launchpad it is free, otherwise it’s £140
