Maybe you have been selling on eBay a while but aren't getting the desired results from your efforts. Or, perhaps you have been selling for fun on eBay but are now ready to turn your hobby into a home business. These resources will help intermediate sellers move sales, and your eBay business to the next level.

Directly from eBay:
"When buyers see the icon next to a seller's User ID, they know they're working with a seller who ranks among the most successful sellers in terms of product sales and customer satisfaction on eBay. Members of the PowerSeller program get a range of special benefits, including prioritized customer support, promotional offers, eBay promotional merchandise, advanced selling education, opportunities to participate in research, and other special rewards.

To qualify for the PowerSeller program, sellers must consistently sell a significant volume of items, maintain a 98% positive feedback rating and provide a high level of service to their buyers."

In a nutshell, focus on:

1) Customer service. Without your customers, you have nothing.

2) Represent your product accurately and be honest.

3) Offer 100% satisfaction guarantee - look beyond the sale to building a long relationship with your customers.

4) Ship quickly and securely.

5) Answer questions promptly.

6) Offer combined shipping to encourage your buyers to purchase more at one time.

7) Act professionally. Just because you are a small seller on eBay does not mean your standards have to be any lower than a major retailer.

8) Be patient. It takes time to build a business.
