Over 3,000 Shopify views but zero sales—what am I doing wrong?

Hi everyone,

I recently started a small UAE-focused Shopify store selling affordable kaftans. The products are priced around AED 59–69, and I have been sending traffic through paid social ads.

Shopify has recorded more than 3,000 views, but I still have zero sales.

I tested the customer journey myself—from the product page to the cart and checkout—and initially believed everything was working. However, I may be overlooking an inventory, shipping, checkout, trust, targeting or product-page problem.

I’m also under financial pressure because I am repaying a loan, so only a small amount of money remains for testing. I’m not asking anyone for money or sympathy—I need honest advice before spending more on ads.

Could you please tell me:

* Does the store look trustworthy? * Is the product or price unattractive? * Is important sizing, delivery or returns information missing? * Could my advertising be bringing low-quality traffic? * What would stop you from completing the purchase? * What should I fix first?

Store: [https://nervshop.com\](https://nervshop.com)

Brutally honest feedback is welcome. I would rather identify the real problem than continue paying for traffic that does not convert.

Thank you.

I'm Sudanese and I taught myself to design digital products. This is the first one I finished.

Salam everyone.

I'm Suhaib. Over the last few weeks I taught myself how to design and build digital products, and I finally finished my first one.

It's a printable activity book for children ages 4 to 7 that teaches bike safety. 45 pages — illustrated stories, mazes, matching games, a colour-by-signal page, an I-spy, a bingo card for a family ride, and a certificate at the end for when the child finishes it. I drew and laid out every page myself. I solved every maze by hand to make sure each one actually has a clear path, and I wrote an answer key for the back.

I also made the marketing images for it and three short video ads.

I'm not posting this to sell it to you. It's in English and it's made for parents abroad, and I know it isn't something our people here need right now. I wanted to show it to my own people, because I worked hard on it and I don't really have anyone else to show it to.

The other reason I'm posting: I'm looking for work. If any of you work in design or digital marketing, or you know someone who needs page layouts, product images, or short video ads made — I can do that work now, and I'm looking for clients.

And if you have feedback on the work itself I want to hear it. Including the hard kind.

0 sales. No ad budget. Built everything with AI. What I learned and what I still don't know how to do.

I have a print-on-demand art store. I've been building it for a few weeks. I used Claude (AI) to write all my copy, build my SEO strategy, create email templates, and map out a growth plan. Honestly — the AI did an excellent job. My product pages are good. My blog posts are live. My email sequence is ready to go.

I still have 0 sales from anyone who doesn't share my DNA.

What I've learned:

  • AI can build a store that looks legitimate
  • AI can write copy that converts (probably — I have no data yet)
  • AI cannot give you social proof
  • AI cannot make you press record on your first TikTok
  • AI cannot replace the discomfort of asking real people to look at your thing

What I don't know yet:

  • Whether the art itself resonates with people who didn't grow up with this visual tradition
  • Whether $39 is the right entry price for a fine art print from a brand nobody's heard of
  • Whether posting on Reddit like this is stupid or actually smart
