Business Link eBay Workshop Reeds Hotel Barton Upon Humber

Excellent turnout for the Business Link eBay Workshop Reeds Hotel Barton Upon Humber and what a fantastic venue too it was stunning.

We had a very good set of questions firing from all angles and I hope I managed to answer them for you satisfactorily.

A quick reminder on the keywords ensure that you use strong keywords that reflect the products you sell and not fancy sentences in the shops description section.

Strong simple keywords will attract buyers silly words such as we sell bargain galore or wonderful items do not bring in traffic who will type these types of words when searching for products? NO ONE

Keep keywords for your eBay business simple and get into the habit of thinking like a customer what words will a client use to fing your products?

Once again thanks for the turnout

John

Business Link Yorkshire Advanced eBay Trading Workshop Thirsk Racecourse

Thank you all for an excellent turnout and thanks for making the workshop a success.

Hopefully you have all received your presentations if not please let me know and I’ll Get one of to you.

Selling on eBay can be very lucrative for you all but you must apply yourself nothing happens until you make it happen.

A few of you have been writing to me asking for advice on to attain stock and more importantly where from?

This of course is the 64 million dollar question you will find in your area wholesale suppliers Auction houses car boot Sales flee markets and many other avenues on your doorstep Even retailers are constantly looking to shift inventory to make way for new stock or generate cash flow why not call in on local retailers drop in a business card make yourself know.

Avoid buying goods from China until you have gained some buying experience you could make a costly mistake.

Why not take a look at the wholesale category on eBay and only trade in things you know something about this way you increase your chances of success these should be enough to get you going.

In the meantime stay safe trade safe and good luck.

Making eBay Shops Work For Your Business, Great Victoria Hotel, Bridge Street, Bradford

Sorry for the delay in getting this blog out I just want to say thanks for a fantastic turnout for the  Business Link Yorkshire advanced eBay Trading Workshop held at the Great Victoria Hotel, Bridge Street, Bradford.

There were one or two of you that thought the handouts were a bit on the small side and if anyone would like a pdf copy let me know and I will email it to you.

Ebay basic shops are an excellent cost-effective way of starting out on your e-commerce venture and with around 250+ million registered users make eBay a hallmark for your online success.

My advice to begin is getting to grips with the control panel and list small amounts gradually begin with the basic shop and keep growing month on month rather than try to get it all done in 5 minutes Rome was not built-in a day.

Take a look at cooltext where you can design and download a logo for free then upload to you store http://cooltext.com/

And remember you can purchase and point a domain name directly to your store for that added professionalism.

I am here to help just ask if you need me.

John
