Business Link Yorkshire and FSB eBay workshop Lazaart Hotel Cottingham

What a fantastic workshop but more importantly what a fantastic audience you all were thank you so much for making the eBay workshop a resounding Success.

I would like to remind you all how important it is to ensure you master how to list your eBay items using the ebay Sell your item form at the start of your eBay business before advancing on to other types of listing tools.

Make sure your listing looks professional avoid using coloured text black and white with bullet points bold titles fair so much Better to the eye of your buyer.

Good title plus item specifics plus clear item description repetitive word’s and quality pictures = more traffic more Sales.

Don’t succumb to the lazy eBay sellers style of cutting corners instead aim to become top seller’s through hard work and dedication.

See you soon

John

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 workshop Inovation Centre Europarc Grimsby

Hi all thanks for a fantastic turnout at the inovation Centre Europarc Grimsby.

Apart from 3 negative feedbacks about the event all the others where positive and I thank you all for your fantastic comments regarding the workshop and how beneficial it was to you thanks.

My understanding was that the 3 people who were there were not actually sat in the course to learn how to sell effectively on eBay but rather to watch what I was doing they apparently thought that the presentation was erratic.

What I did not expect was the amount of delegates turning up without any prior knowledge of eBay selling which numbered around 75% of the workshop against 25% who attended the basic selling workshop and made the presentation very difficult to coordinate as trying to strike a fine balance for existing sellers and new sellers alike is a very hard thing to do at an advanced workshop.

Personally I thought it went brilliant sure I had to flick from page going back and forth the reason for this is that I am not a selfish person I do my best to keep everyone happy at different levels in these workshops and I have to say I am glad I took this action to flick in and out and once again I am proved right because had I taken the systematic approach I would have endured a majority of negative feedback a pat on the back then for me for keeping you all happy (expect the 3 ).

I take it that you all read the notes on Business Links information booklet regarding this workshop and that you were of the understanding that it was for eBay shops learning rather than basic learning.

I must say apart from the 3 watchers all of you who are looking to start an eBay business thought the workshop was excellent and for this I am grateful because as you are the ones who are so important this is all that matters to me thanks again for the excellent awesome feedback.

Dont forget if you need an electronic copy of the handouts email me and let me know and in the meantime if you have any questions please ask.

Here are some articles you may find interesting

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.
