Think about your ebay business when reading the quote below

Business Link Making eBay Work For Your Business Workshop Tick ton Grange Hotel, Beverley

Thank you all for attending the last in the Business Link Making eBay Work For Your Business Workshop Tick ton Grange Hotel, Beverley.

The workshop went down a treat and I am very pleased that you all enjoyed it but more importantly went away armed with the knowledge of how to start on the right note.

Motivation will play a key role in building your eBay business and if you set aside just a couple of hours per day for your eBay business and nothing else you will be amazed at first how much you can achieve and how motivated you will become to start grow maintain and grow your business.

Building a successful eBay business is certainly achievable and at what ever level you desire as I explained at the eBay workshop, but only you can make that happen I will of course continue to offer my help and support as promised for 12 weeks from our eBay workshop date

Some of you have been asking about where the best places are to buy stock to resell on eBay one such place worth investigating is ALIBABA which is china’s equivalent to eBay just be careful and begin by using ALIBABA EXPRESS and make sure you pay with paypal or escrow to protect yourselves.

There are many courses available on the site to show and instruct you on safety aspects as well as how to build relationships with sellers all over the globe its worth a look.

Also some of you are asking me about droppshipping personally I am not too keen on this idea as I like to be in control of my own stock however if you want to dropship I suggest you build relationships with local suppliers that you know will work with you in important areas such as shipping etc as some drop shippers take far too long to post out items which may result in bad feedback for you.

Until next time have a good one stay safe online and be successful

John

When you have to decide

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing. The worst thing you can do is nothing.” – Theodore Roosevelt

eBay Shopping Basket

Hopefully you will have all noticed the shopping basket Icon to the top right of your screens by now if its not there don’t worry it soon will be.

Another commitment from eBay to help push sales higher I’m looking forward to the increase.

It will certainly make life easier for shoppers and as long as you have related products in your store there is no reason that your customer should not buy those too but you still have work to do you need to make them want to buy that second and third item so consider offering insentives by way of discounts or free postage or the like.

Shopping basket will help for sure.

Lets Make it happen

Business Link eBay Workshop Digital Media Center Barnsley

I would like to kick off by saying a huge thank you to you all for being a fantastic audience it was a real pleasure presenting the workshop to you.

I have been busy as of late so may take a while to update the site I shall be looking to add more ebay tutorial videos in due course.

I have noted that some browsers are not able to open the videos so you may need to update your flash player I believe you will be offered the option anyway.

I thought the ebay workshop went quite well and your thoughts and feedback on here will be appreciated.

Before you open your ebay shop I recommend you take a look at other ebay shops which should give you some kind of an idea of how to build your own you will of course see both good and bad examples of ebay stores and both should serve purposes for you.

Keep it simple dont over complicate things honest if you stick to what you learnt at the eBay workshop you will find it easy and give yourself an excellent fighting chance of success but nothing will happen until you make it happen its all about hard work and consistency

Will update this post with ebay news soon

Take care for now leave comments keep in touch
