  What Does Your Packaging Say About Your Business?
Sep 5, 2008
Sales – that’s what eBay sellers focus on. It’s all about sales. But is it really? Surely there is more to it than that?
 
Of course there is, and while making that sale is always going to be the bottom line, it’s important to ensure that we also take care of all the other vital aspects of running a successful eBay business.
 
  Other things you should know about ‘One Day Only’ sales and ‘Featured Plus’ listings
Sep 5, 2008
• You must have a feedback rating of at least 10 to place a ‘Featured Plus’ Auction.
 
• Listing your item in two categories provides even greater exposure for your products – but only where two suitable categories actually exist for your product type. It’s a total waste of money to use a second category purely for the sake of using a second category.
 
• You are not allowed to list multiple ‘Buy It Now’ products in traditional ‘One Day Only’ auctions, but you can use ‘Dutch Auction’ to sell multiples of the same product. ‘Dutch Auction’ exists where several items are offered, all identical, with the bidders indicating how many items they wish to bid for and at what price. ‘Dutch Auction’ items sell at auction end and are not available on ‘Buy It Now’. Check the rules relating to ‘Dutch Auctions’, sometimes called ‘Multiple Item Auctions’...
  The Magic of ‘One Day Only’ Sales on eBay!
Sep 5, 2008

Sep 5, 2008
This is a newly introduced section of eBay Confidential that aims to check readers’ listings, on request, to hopefully help grow your profits in the short and long term. It obviously depends on readers contacting me with their problems, which you can do by emailing to avril@clippingsfactory.com. Please note I won’t ever use readers’ real names or eBay IDs in this feature, so please feel confident to contact me any time. If space doesn’t permit me to answer all queries in the main newsletter I’ll cover as many as possible in the weekly ezine.
  Build a Regular Monthly Income Membership Site on eBay Using Low Cost Resell Rights Products
Sep 5, 2008

You are no longer allowed to sell instant download eBooks on eBay, except from Classified Ads on eBay’s American site. But you can still sell eBooks on eBay in physical format, usually on CD or other portable storage containers (such as memory sticks). Most eBooks on eBay sell for pennies, not pounds, and the vast majority represents a onetime transaction with little backend selling potential. Despite the fact that most sellers use eBooks to grow a mailing list for backend sales, it’s a wellknown fact that only 20% of first time buyers become regular buyers (Pareto’s Theory aka The 80:20 Rule). In short, 80% of those cheap eBooks won’t ever make you rich.
