eBay is a great way to start your online business. The greatest advantage of eBay is that it helps you to start your internet business without going through the trouble of setting up your own e-Commerce website. But E Bay has become very competitive as more and more sellers are trying to sell their products through it. Just posting an auction on E Bay does not guarantee it's sale, as a large number of E Bay items remain unsold everyday. The following tips will help you to be successful in selling your items listed on eBay:
(i) Research -- Research is essential for your E Bay success. Before listing a product for auction, do some research about other similar products which are already listed and their bidding process.
(ii) Picture -- It has been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. Your listing must be accompanied by good quality pictures as people like to see the products which they want to purchase. The pictures should be of professional quality.
The background light should be sufficient. The best thing is to use a number of pictures taken from different angles so that the prospective buyer can have a good idea of what you are selling.
(iii) Description -- Along with the picture, provide a detailed description of the product. You may use search engine friendly phrases to attract visitors from the search engines. Your description should focus on the benefits of using the product and not only it's features.
(iv) Terms and conditions -- Mention your terms and conditions clearly. Terms like shipping time and costs, payment methods, refund policy etc. should be clearly explained.
(v) Feedback -- If you have got positive feedback, then mention your feedback comments along with your description of the product. It helps to build confidence among your
customers.
(vi) Payment methods -- Accept different payment methods such as, check, Paypal, bank transfer, credit cards, money order etc.
(vii) 'About Me' page -- You may create a short 'About Me' page which should contain a few lines about yourself. It will build your credibility with the prospective
buyers.
