eBay : Next 5 Tips for Increasing Your eBay Response

Previous post on 5 tips for increasing your eBay respone, herewith the next 5 tips. Read on for some tips.

1. Improve your picture
2. Add an About Me page
3. Use SquareTrade
4. Write terms and conditions
5. Show off your feedback

6. Add NR to your titles
If you have extra space in a title, put ‘NR’ (no reserve) on the end. Bidders prefer auctions that don’t have a reserve price, and doing this lets them see that yours don’t.

7. Benefits not features
Make sure your description focuses on the benefits that your item can give to the customer, not just its features. This is a classic sales technique. If you have trouble with this, remember: ‘cheap’ is a feature, ’save money’ is a benefit.

8. List more items
If you want more people to respond to your items, then list more items! You might find you have better like listing items at the same time, instead of one-by-one. There’s no need to use a Dutch auction – you can just keep two or three auctions going at once for an item you have more than one of in stock.

9. Accept unusual payment methods
To reach those last few buyers, accept payment methods that many sellers don’t, like cheques.

10.Buy some upgrades
The best upgrade is the most expensive one, which makes your item appear first in search results. In crowded categories, you might find that this is worth the money.

Once you’ve got some buyers, you want to keep them coming back to you. The next email will show you how to turn one-time buyers into long-term customers.
