Need some ideas for bringing more business your way???  Want to increase the number of people buying your auctions??  Gosh, I sure did by just doing a few simple things.  I have brought so many watchers and potential buyers to my site by just adding a blog and writing some guides and reviews!!!!  It's easy and fun too!  Read on....

• Blogging
• Reviews
• Guides
• Want it Nows
  
• Signature lines
• Seller Tools
• Marketing Tools
• Cross-Promoting

Want to draw more attention to your auctions?  Start Blogging!!  It's sooooo easy! And you can say whatever you want!!!! (Well, almost everything! LOL  It's fun :) Check mine blog out by going to the bottom of this guide and click on my blog link.  If you want to start your own blog today, click here:  eBay Blogs   It will take you to a page and you just click on the BIG red button. It's that easy! No signing up because you're already signed in through ebay already. Just make a title for your blog and start blogging. :)
Did you know ebay has a blog? It's called The Chatter~Ebay Community Newsletter.  It's awesome! Here's the link:  The Chatter   

Want to write a Review on a product that you're selling so that it drives more people to your ebay items???  Well, just click here  Reviews    And you can write a review for all different kinds of products.  I did a few this weekend! It's so easy and only takes a few minutes of your time. If you can type, you can write a review!  The best part is, if you are selling the product you're reviewing, it shows up on the items review when someone clicks on it! Wow~ more business for you!  

If you want to write a Guide (Like the one you're reading right now)  Just click here: Guides    It will take you to the same page as the Reviews and you just click on "write a guide" and start your title and write away!!!  You can add pictures to your guides too!  These are fun because you get to be a teacher of sorts.  You teach others how to do something.  You can write about anything!  It's a wonderful way to show people how you do something that you've found to be very easy.  You can help so many people!  You can even add pictures to your guide...it's fun!  Try it! I think you'll really love it and the best part is....you're drawing more attention to your auctions!

And the best part about blogging and writing reviews and guides is that you're entered to win money from ebay!!! Whoo hoo!!!  That's right! Ebay is running a contest right now through October 17, 2006  Here's the link for all the rules on the contest...   Contest    

I check the Want it Now section of ebay every day! It's a way for buyers to request specific items they are wanting to buy.  And it's a way sellers can search for the buyers that are looking for their specific items.  "Want it Now" can be found in your "My ebay" section on the left hand side.  Click on it and it will take you to a page that asks you if you're a buyer of a seller.  For Sellers, do a search for the items you've got listed in your auctions and email the auction number to the potential buyer....it's that simple!!!  The potential buyer will receive an email from you inviting them to look at your auction! Wow! Ebay makes it so simple to draw people to your auctions!  I've got many of my sales by checking that Want it Now list every day. You can too!


Invite someone to Cross Promote their auctions with you!  Cross-promoting your items is an excellent way to draw more attention to your ebay auctions.  Ebay will send an email for you! To learn more about Cross promoting, click on "Marketing Tools" in your  "My ebay"....it's on the left side of the page.

How about a signature line like the one I use?  A signature is your name and links that you include at the bottom of your emails.  It's a great way to reach people every time you email them.  It brings them back to your sites!
It invites them to check out your:
Auctions,
Blog,
Reviews
and
Guides
And that's more business for YOU!!!

I also invite my buyers to get FREE business cards like the ones I use.  I include a link at the end of all my emails.  Did you know every time someone clicks on my link and buys something, I get a 2.00 credit???  Well, it accumulates fast and I use the extra dough to buy things for my ebay business.  It's great!  You can sign up too!  Just click here for FREE business Cards and start earning your own credit.   When you get to the site, make yourself an account and then, click on the "refer-a-friend" program.   They'll send you a link to your inbox right away and all you have to do is add it in your signature line.

Add a signature line to all your emails!.....Go under mail Preferences, on your computer, and set it up for yourself!

Have fun with all of this info....search on ebay under your "My Ebay" area on ebay. They have a place called "Seller Central"  on the left hand side of the page. Click on it and it will take you to a place where you can read all about how to better your business.  It's really helpful!  I learned a lot about making my business better!  I know you will too!

Get started today! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
