The Ebay Powersellers Toolbox
Nick Moseley asked:
“I really must get round to selling on eBay” Sound familiar? It’s a fact that starting out selling on ebay is daunting. It’s a huge site with lots of hoops to jump through - so it seems anyway.
But as a full time Powerseller I can tell you, that it’s easy once you master a few basics and have your standard set of tools and resources sorted out.
In this article series I’m going to list and explain the tools and services you need to get in order to operate effectively as a seller on ebay.
**Why aim at Powerseller level?**
A Powerseller is an ebay seller who has sold above a certain number of items/value over a 3 month rolling period. It is an indication of success so therefore you what to be there as if you’re not then you’re by definition not selling very much and only making a bit of spare cash.
**How long to become a Powerseller?**
A minimum of 3 months. You need to sell over a certain number of sales/value and maintain a good feedback rating over a 3 month rolling period. So even if you sell $100,000 in month you won’t be upgraded. That’s because eBay define Powerseller’s as their most experienced “pillars of the community” So you have to prove yourself to eBay and that takes a little while.
It’s possible to do it in 3 months but unlikely. You’d be pushing very hard and taking some risks because of your unfamiliarity with the system. Better I suggest to aim at 4 months with month one being the test and learn phase.
**What do you need? My Powerseller Toolbox**
Some of these steps and tools you can do or get before you start. Some you need to be aware of and ready to fire at the right time. I’ve indicated this on each step.
**Verified Paypal Premier or Business account - Right away.
Free and essential. Lets you receive and send any amount of money. Premier if selling as a private individual. Business if you’re a business.
**Quality digital camera - Immediately.
Essential. Make sure it has a good macro mode for close up shots. Photos are a key to your success. When you’re selling products where you can get manufacturer shots I still find it good to take my own shots in a natural setting for the product. This adds extra differentiation and you’ll come across as more of an authority on the product.
**Image Edit software - Right away.
If you’re a whiz with Photoshop or other image software great. If not then you’ll need image editing software for resizing and touch up. I use Irfanview which is free.
**Image hosting account - Right away.
eBay’s Picture Manager is pricey. An alternative is an image hosting account. You just upload your pictures and copy and paste the image codes into your auctions. I use villagephotos.com where I get a 5000 image limit for $6 a month. Their cool image gallery feature allows you to use many photos in your auctions for free.
**Answertool - As soon as you start listing
I can’t praise this enough. As you do eBay you’ll find that you get many repetitive questions. E.g., postage queries, requests for your address, common questions on core products. It’s really annoying to type a reply each time for the same thing.
With Answertool you build up a custom database of common answers and access them through a really fast easy tree structure that comes up at the click of a button.
It’s simly a “can’t live without” tool.
I estimate it’s saved me 20-30 minutes a day since I got it 18 months = 10-11 days of pointless typing eliminated!
**Roboform - Right away
As you develop your business you’ll find yourself needing to log in to allsorts of places, ebay, supplier websites, membership sites etc. Roboform stores and automates all your login and password operations. Once you have you can’t and won’t live without it. A massive time and hassle saver that is also great for filling in online forms, e,g, anything with name, address ‘ Get it.
**Turbolister - Right away
Free. eBays auction listing and management tool. Create and manage your listings on your computer and upload them en masse to eBay. It’s faster and easier than creating auctions on eBay’s online interface, has loads of design templates and requires no HTML or techie skills. A vast time saver. Get it and take a few hours to learn it.
**Selling Manager Pro - Right away
Automates your business processes through the sales cycle - from customer emails and listing management to leaving feedback. Get the Pro version. It’s free for 30 days. Indispensable.
**Open an eBay shop - After 10 positive feedbacks
Your own eCommerce website within eBay. You can organise all your auctions in categories you define. You can put your own custom pages on there, run sales on your fixed price items, manage cross sell promotions, build and market to your own email list. You even have a Vacation feature to freeze things if you go on holiday. If you want to do a bit of SEO (Search engine optimization) this is where you target it.
There are 3 levels: Basic, Featured and Anchor. Go for Featured. Anchor is hugely expensive so ignore that until you’re at least a Gold level Powerseller.
Right away - Look at other sellers to get ideas for things you. Write the pages in advance so you can set them up quickly later.
**About Me page - As soon as you get auctions running
Free. A basic thing you must do. People buy form people and this where you get to tell people who you are and what you do. Write for your target audience in the context of your situation. So if you’re just starting, say who you are and that you’re clearing your house out so keep checking back! Later you can put info like buyers guides, FAQs and technical info ‘ stuff you don’t want cluttering up your auctions.
**Buy some stuff on eBay - Right away
Get some positive feedbacks and learn how eBay works from the buyers angle. Maybe things for your hobbies or some supplies you’ll need like scales and bubble wrap.
**Define Terms and Conditions - Right away
See my sites and feel free to lift and adapt mine if you. No matter how you’re selling you must have these just in case. Key things you might put in an auction are places you can’t or won’t ship to. Types of payment accepted. Whether or not people can call round to collect. Refund & Guarantee policy.
**Define Refund and Guarantee policy - Right away
You wouldn’t buy a most things without one so why should people buy from some person on ebay if you don’t offer one? I offer a 30 day money back, no questions asked. I get about a 1% return rate which is a mix of defective product (it happens) and ones where I suspect the person needed the money back as they’d overspent. Regardless I do the refund.
**Check email 3×7
Check morning, noon and evening at least. Potential customers will sometimes ask the daftest questions or ask about things that are clearly written in the auction. Just be polite and answer and don’t say anything sarcastic! Replay too late and someone might not bid and that can mean a bidding war never starts and the auction bombs.
**Skype or phone communication
If you don’t mind taking calls then I suggest a phone with answer machine and published hours when it will be answered or you’ll never get any peace. The same goes for Skype.
**Mailing stuff - Right away:
*Big sharp scissors.
*Scales that measure from 1 gram up as high as possible.
*Brown packing tape.
*Wide clear cellotape.
*Brown paper wrap.
*Bubble wrap rolls.
*Padded mailing bags, I use MailLite.
You can find suppliers for all this on eBay though I prefer office supplies company Viking Direct where I buy mailing supplies in bulk monthly.
**Future products and sales - Whan awake at all times!
Think about product you’ll source to resell. Make a list of hobbies and interests past, present or thing you want to start and go scout online for manufacturers and wholesalers and make a spreadsheet contact hit list.
**Summary
Time spent in preparation is time well spent. Take care not to get caught in this phase ‘ analysis paralysis as it’s called. Get your tools done fast. Be focused and determined and move onto action stations ‘ selling your first items.

What Are The Benefits By Getting Local Shops As Your Drop Shoppers?
ebaydropshippingworkathome asked:
Think of a situation: you’re shopping for ladies’ apparels in a shopping mall. Then you stop by 2 boutiques. One is a small shop with less than 100 items. Another is a huge shop with more than 5,000 items. If they’re selling similar things, which one will more likely get your sales?
You will probably hang around the 5,000-item shop and spend your money there, right?
It’s a very simple retail strategy. The more choices you can offer to your customers, the more likely they’ll spend more time in your shop. The more time they stay in your shop, the more likely they’ll spend their money on. You don’t have to be an expert to understand this truth, do you?
In fact, it’s just the same in the online world. The more good items you can offer in your online shop, the more interests your customers will have. This is one of the benefits you can get when working with a local shop. If you try to set up an online business by ordering in bulk or wholesale for certain items, how many can you order? Just a few t-shirts can cost you a hundred bucks or more. How much money do you need to invest before you can start selling in a resonable scale?
Besides, don’t expect all your items can be sold. It’ll never happen. Otherwise, you’ll never see those season-end sales in all the shops around every year. Then how much profit do you think you can earn at the end if you try to order from wholesale yourself?
However, if you can get a local shop as your drop shipper, it’s no more your concern. You have the product variety for your sales without any investment on stock required. Whatever the local shop has, you can just post in eBay and sell. The shop owner will never mind you advertising too much for him. If you can work with a few different types of local shops and make your eBay shop like a department store, your customers may be trapped and never go for other sellers, just like what you do when you go to a real department store.
Isn’t it good?

Success Tips of an Ebay Ebook
optica00002 asked:
I hope you all had a good break during the holidays and are now ready to get back to work. Now many of you may have set yourselves New Years Resolutions. If you haven’t I can think of a few good ones for potential ebook sellers:
1) Register as a seller on eBay:- If you have been putting it off for ages now is the ideal time to register. Why? Because now not only will you have the usually things that you have been meaning to get rid of for some time, but you may also have unwanted Christmas gifts. I really cannot emphasise enough, the need to register on eBay to sell as soon as possible. Selling on eBay takes a while to master, and like many other things, practice makes perfect. The sooner you register, the sooner you can get good at it, and you will also be one step closer to starting a business on eBay. If you really do not have any physical items around the house that you wish to sell then why not try selling an ebook? You can get resellable ebooks free or very cheap from a variety of websites and newsletter. Listings start at just 15p so you can experiment with selling for an incredibly small investment.
2) If you have been selling on eBay for some time, consider getting an eBay shop:- At only £6 a month the benefits really are worth it. The first major benefit is the cheaper listing fees (Buy It Now Store Listing Fees start at only 5p a month). Although Store Listings don’t get as much exposure as eBay Auction and Buy It Now listings, you can use a combination of the listing types to save money, and also increase sales. Other benefits include Sales Reports Plus (which incorporate eBay fees and PayPal fees to show how much you have actually made), Traffic Reports, an actual website address that you can direct your customers to: “http://stores.ebay.co.uk/yourstorename”, custom shop pages, and much more. If you are trying to grow your eBay business aggressively, then you really need to consider getting an eBay shop.
3) If you have an eBay shop and sell on eBay, try to improve your business in some way:- The improvements need only be small to be effective. For example, maybe you need to update your About Me page to reflect your business more appropriately. Perhaps you could redesign your listings so that they look more professional. Or maybe you could set yourself a goal to add a new product to your inventory every month. This last goal is a particularly good one for ebook sellers as once added to your inventory, you can have an ebook
I hope you all had a good break during the holidays and are now ready to get back to work. Now many of you may have set yourselves New Years Resolutions. If you haven’t I can think of a few good ones for potential ebook sellers:
1) Register as a seller on eBay:- If you have been putting it off for ages now is the ideal time to register. Why? Because now not only will you have the usually things that you have been meaning to get rid of for some time, but you may also have unwanted Christmas gifts. I really cannot emphasise enough, the need to register on eBay to sell as soon as possible. Selling on eBay takes a while to master, and like many other things, practice makes perfect. The sooner you register, the sooner you can get good at it, and you will also be one step closer to starting a business on eBay. If you really do not have any physical items around the house that you wish to sell then why not try selling an ebook? You can get resellable ebooks free or very cheap from a variety of websites and newsletter. Listings start at just 15p so you can experiment with selling for an incredibly small investment.
2) If you have been selling on eBay for some time, consider getting an eBay shop:- At only £6 a month the benefits really are worth it. The first major benefit is the cheaper listing fees (Buy It Now Store Listing Fees start at only 5p a month). Although Store Listings don’t get as much exposure as eBay Auction and Buy It Now listings, you can use a combination of the listing types to save money, and also increase sales. Other benefits include Sales Reports Plus (which incorporate eBay fees and PayPal fees to show how much you have actually made), Traffic Reports, an actual website address that you can direct your customers to: “http://stores.ebay.co.uk/yourstorename”, custom shop pages, and much more.

About eBay Today
Anyone who has invested in eBay stock over the last few years probably knows that eBay’s position in the Internet marketplace is rapidly changing. eBay’s 1998 IPO occurred during the fabled “dot com bubble” years and was influenced by many of the same forces that made other technology and Internet IPOs so (in)famous. On the first day of trading, the $18 per share target price gave way to an opening price of $53.50 and eBay’s revenue growth has stayed more or less continuous since then, staying percentage-wise in the 30s and even venturing at times into the 40s—enough to make any investor smile.
In recent quarters, however, things have slowed down a little. Quarterly year over year growth is now at just over 30 percent and shows a downward trend—still excellent, but not quite as stratospheric. Some of this is due to increasing competition from eBay competitors, including Google (worldwide but especially in North America and Europe) and a number of alternative auction houses across Asia and the Pacific Rim. In some circles, people are talking as if the slowing of growth and the maturing of eBay as a company and stock mark end times for the company. Not so.
In recent years eBay CEO Meg Whitman’s strategy has been to continue to strengthen eBay’s core auction business while at the same time to diversify eBay’s business model and holdings as a hedge against competition in the online auctions and ecommerce market. This strategic and markets growth has included a number of investments and acquisitions—big names that today are also eBay. You may have heard of some of them:
* Skype—The wildly popular Skype VOIP (voice-over-internet-protocol) service is eBay’s largest acquisition to date and one of its most recent, purchased in 2005 for approximately $2.6 billion. Whitman’s vision for Skype is as a communications hub not just for Internet customers looking for alternatives to traditional telecom packages, but for eBay buyers and sellers, who will eventually be able to interact securely and anonymously by voice. She also sees a future in which the forthcoming Skype subscription charges will be cleared primarily through PayPal.
* PayPal—By now, nearly everyone realizes that PayPal is now an eBay company, picked up for $1.5 billion in 2002 and a natural match: the vast majority of eBay transactions involving online payments at the time used PayPal, and this remains the state of affairs today. True to Whitman’s vision, PayPal has also grown to become the premier payment system for ecommerce across the Internet, second only to direct credit card transactions and safer as well. An increasing number of etailers and even brick-and-mortar stores accept PayPal payments today.
* Craigslist—In 2004 eBay paid an undisclosed sum to acquire a 25 percent interest in Craigslist, becoming its largest single shareholder. Our company selling links of london on craigslist have good effect.eBay has kept a low profile vis-a-vis it’s ties to and influence on Craigslist, but with the classified service’s growth going through the roof and the classified marketplace becoming more important online in general, investors should see this as a strong asset with big upside potential for eBay.
* Half.com—Half.com, acquired by eBay in 2000, represents eBay’s move into the online used media market. Half.com was a rising star in and in many ways the creator of this market which has now been joined by the likes of Amazon.com, among others. Half.com remains a perennial favorite amongst students, bibliophiles, game enthusiasts, film buffs, and others in seeking to buy used media products at reduced cost. Because these types of products are commodity priced and often have a long shelf life before being purchased, the alternate sales model that Half.com represents is both appropriate to its market and does not compete directly with eBay’s core auction offerings.
* Rent.com, Shopping.com, Prostores—While not as monumental in scale as the aforementioned transactions, eBay has also diversified its retail and real estate businesses with Rent.com, Shopping.com, and Prostores, which together complement eBay’s existing eBay Motors, eBay Real Estate, among others, in retail beyond the commodity and consumer goods market.
If together these acquisitions paint the picture of a company in the midst of steady and continued growth, they should—eBay remains the premier online auctions and retail space and is poised to continue along this trajectory for the forseeable future. eBay’s major threat at the moment is Google, also rapidly expanding and enjoying market-leading growth. eBay’s relationship to Google is a troubled one, as eBay relies on Google’s advertising model and market reach for its continued success even as Google continues to enter market niches in which eBay products already exist—for example, classified ads and online payments.
Despite these challenges, prospects for eBay in the future look bright, as eBay growth continues to be strong and eBay’s recent acquisitions continue to pick up financial steam and Internet traffic as well.

Unbeatable Ebay Business Opportunities
Lisa Moore asked:
When you first look into the numerous eBay business opportunities websites, you may feel that it’s too big, complicated and confusing. You might even believe that only Internet professionals or Internet veterans can figure out its complexities and find an eBay business opportunity. Fortunately, this assumption isn’t true.
If you take advantage of an eBay business opportunity, you may come to realize that even Internet novices can easily learn and succeed. In fact, most eBay business opportunities are conceived out of resourcefulness and not out of Internet intricacy. People with just about any Internet skill level can earn substantial profits just by taking the time to find the right eBay business opportunity.
EBay is constantly expanding and improving. Continuous changes are implemented. For every improvement on an existing eBay business opportunity or newly introduced scheme, the basics are always outlined. You are sure to find that it’s fairly effortless and relatively simple. Even more, you don’t have to take tremendous risks when you try out an eBay business opportunity, whether as seller or buyer.
It is understandable why people around the world look into eBay business opportunities. There are chances of succeeding and earning impressive profits on eBay with less risk and cost involved.
Regularly, there is an ingenious eBay business opportunity that’s waiting to be discovered. One method can even translate to a large sum of money in a matter of three days.
This eBay business opportunity springs up when you buy an item on eBay that had resale rights. Then, negotiate an agreement with an eBay power seller.
Here’s the scenario: there is a popular product up for sale at $10 and then, suddenly reduced to $5. While this sudden reduction could be reason for caution, if this offer is given to you by someone you’ve already bought similar items from before, you can be confident that the offer can be trusted.
This half-price offer may be available for only 48 hours, though. This limited time is because the person offering the half-priced item has an agreement with the seller. The condition for the sale is to offer half price for a period of 2 days only.
So, the outcome is that the half price offer is an opportunity too lucrative to ignore. In the scenario, 3 out of 10 people offered this eBay business opportunity decide to buy. This percentage of involvement is consistent, every time such eBay business opportunity is offered!
For example, let’s assume that 200 people are offered this eBay business opportunity. Add it up: multiply a third of 200 by $5, then expect to find that amount in your bank account in a matter of 3 days!
That’s not even all of it. Imagine the item has a higher price. Even if it is slashed by half, it would still get you generous profits once you see the lump sum on the bank.
Are you excited yet? This eBay business opportunity, like most others, works fairly simply. You could apply this idea to products that are especially on demand and highly desirable. Also, find out if someone else offers the same item for a lower price.
The next step is to send an email to an eBay power seller or someone you know with a credible eBay shop. Be sure to stipulate that if they will offer your item to their past buyers at half price, you’ll go for 50-50 profit sharing. But be certain they are selling similar products you are offering. Doing so will help them take an interest and find that the eBay business opportunity you’re offering them is hard to pass up.
Settle issues with payments by creating a free web site and following its instructions. You can also set up a PayPal link in it. Once someone agrees to add your item to their listed items, send them a link to your temporary website. The power sellers will then send emails that include your temporary half-price offer and your website link to all of their past buyers. In order to inspire some urgency to buy, the email focuses on the fact that the eBay business opportunity being offered to them is limited and gives the offer’s expiration date.
Consequently, after the 2-day period, you close down the temporary website, evaluate your sales and show it to the power seller you worked with. As promised, pay the 50% of the earnings to the power seller’s Paypal account. The other half of the earnings is yours to keep.
There you have it, another eBay business opportunity that’s sure to provide positive results and a tidy profit. The key to your success is to take advantage of the opportunity and never be intimidated.

Welcoming Visitors to your Ebay Shop

Welcoming Visitors to Your EBay Shop
by Allison Whitehead
Opening an eBay store is a big step for most sellers. You’ve probably enjoyed a reasonable level of sales and now you want to take your eBay business to the next level.
People can find your shop any number of ways – they may find it through one of your auctions, through a search for one of your products on Google or another search engine, or a search on eBay itself. But however they find it, you need to make sure that once they’re there, they stay for a while. The longer they stay in your shop, the more likely they are to buy something – or at least bookmark it as a favourite, or maybe sign up to receive your shop newsletter.
If you’re thinking of opening your own shop, it pays to have a look round at other sellers’ shops before you do so. You can learn a lot from them. Pay special attention to shops run by Power Sellers, or those who have exceptional amounts of feedback (although of course, the two often go hand in hand). These people know how to sell on eBay, and you can bet their shops are among the easiest to navigate, and the most pleasant to browse.
You can of course learn a lot from every shop you come across; I recently looked at one whose background looked like a hideous 1970’s wallpaper, and who insisted on having every piece of information in a different luminous colour. Presumably the seller thought it would catch the eye – it certainly caught mine, but all it made me do was click away in a hurry… away from the shop and away from any chance of buying anything. I wonder how a colour blind customer would react?
Presumably not exactly the reaction the seller had in mind.
The colours you choose for your shop can have a dramatic impact on how people view it. Red, for example, may be an attention grabbing colour, but red also means danger, and can actually make people hesitate. Is that how you want people to react to your shop homepage?
The colours you choose will also brand your shop, whether consciously or not. Think about famous brands and products – many are associated with certain colours. This could happen to your shop too. Be consistent and choose a colour scheme that complements your shop logo.
Your brand can also be related to the products you sell. Try if you can to create a U.S.P. – a unique selling proposition – for your shop. Why should someone buy from you rather than from anyone else? What in particular do you sell? If you sell the same items as a lot of other eBay sellers, what makes you different? If you can create a short sentence that encapsulates what you sell, you will place yourself more firmly in the mind of your customers.
So if you’re thinking of opening an eBay shop, think carefully about the image and message it will present to potential buyers. It could make a bigger difference to your sales than you might think.
