Answer

Does tourist footfall in Palma guarantee good sales for a business?

No. In Palma, many visitors stop to take photos or look at a shop window without buying anything, so footfall and actual sales are not the same. A business can gain visibility from tourists, but it still needs repeat customers, a clear offer and enough local spending to stay healthy.
