5 High Profit Secrets To Write Better eBay Listings
Making money on eBay and selling products through auctions is much like owning your own brick and mortar store. For example, when people come to a store, the most important aspect to selling anything is in the way it's presented.
Big companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars to have people build presentable displays of products so they sell. It's call merchandising.
That's the answer to making more money on eBay. Merchandising.
Or, in eBay auction terms, writing your product listing. Here's five high profit ways you can write better listings.
1. HTML it!
Take some time to learn some basic HTML, or the language the web uses to display websites.
Using HTML you can easily create a very nice looking "display" of your product and build a brand for yourself. By keeping the same look in all your listings people will feel comfortable with your position as a seller and theirs as the buyer.
HTML allows you the opportunity to make your listing stand out and be more professional. Use the HTML editor on the product listing page to make it much easier, even if you don't know a lot HTML.
2. Don't Scream At People.
One of the biggest mistakes people with their eBay listing is the use of all capital letters in the title. IT'S VERY ANNOYING!
Using capital letters is a means of expressing surprise, anger, sadness, discouragement, and other sorts of unhappy emotions. Not a great way to instill an emotional response to buy.
Now, notice I didn't say don't use any caps in your title. Just not all caps. A title is just that... a title. Think of a book title or movie title. Capitalize the first letter of each word.
3. Your eBay listing must be clear.
When presenting a listing for your product you must make it absolutely clear what you are selling. Concise descriptions as well as crystal clear pictures will keep your prospective customer interested in the product. If they are unsure about anything, at any time... you will probably lose them to your competitor.
4. True Powersellers go a step further.
It's not enough to make the product listing very clear, but also your terms and conditions. This means your shipping policy and costs, return policy, any warranties that you, or the company, offer, and any guarantees associated with the product.
This goes the extra mile into creating a comfortable atmosphere where the person reading your listing will be more inclined to buy from you.
5. Follow a listing schedule.
Before you ever place the listing ask yourself a question, "Is this the best time to sell it?" Even the best, most thought out listing, will fail if the time isn't right.
Create a listing schedule that clearly lists the starting and ending dates of your auction. This will ensure that, if you're selling holiday products or seasonal products, the buyer will receive them on time.
Your listing is a part of your business. This is where you begin to build a long lasting relationship, one of comfort and recognition, that continues for long lasting income.
