Auction Revolution Sale
Terry Gibbs sent me a note earlier saying he is running a sale on
his Auction Revolution package. I think Terry's package is one of
the better eBay packages, and the discount makes it even better.
The Auction Revolution is designed for the beginner, but contains
a wealth of details to help any eBay seller get better results.
There is even a free quiz on the site to help you determine if
the package will help you.
I've put one of Terry's articles below so you can learn more
about him. Once you've read the article, go take the free quiz
and see if you need the Auction Revolution.
Here's the article:
Nine Simple eBay Selling Hints
By Terry Gibbs
Some of these eBay hints will save you money, others will result
in higher prices. Either way, these will help you run more
profitable eBay auctions.
1. Write a simple description and do not clutter your auction
with unneeded items like animated Gifs, and colored
backgrounds. Remember, you are selling not entertaining.
2. Charge a flat rate for shipping, and mention the shipping
costs prominently within your auction description.
3. Write a title that accurately describes your item. Use
manufacturers name and model number within the title if
applicable.
4. Write a detailed description that allows prospective
bidders to make a decision about purchasing the item. A
basic tip is the description can never be too long as long
as it is describing the item.
5. Include large clear photographs. Invest in some lights and
a quality camera. Your investment will pay for itself in
higher eBay selling prices within only a few auctions.
6. Host your own pictures. By hosting your own pictures, you
will save money, and, more importantly, be able to use as
many pictures as you need to adequately show eBay bidders
your item. This is the simplest thing to do, and yet 70
percent of eBay sellers ignore this simple tip.
7. Optimise your images for the web. Many sellers use the
highest resolution settings on their cameras and generate
huge files that download very slowly. Computer monitors
only show 72DPI, any extra detail is just a waste of the
bidder's time.
8. List your item in the most appropriate category. Many
buyer's only search eBay by looking at listings within
categories. If you are not in the right eBay category you
will not be seen by lots of potential bidders and you item
may end up selling for less than it's worth.
9. Systemize your eBay selling. Using a system to sell on eBay
will lower the amount of time spent selling each item, and
insure you don't forget any important activities.
The Auction Revolution explains all of these hints in
greater detail.
