I hope that works out better than micro-managing my store.Blondiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13027199145389962870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-31648927994583915192014-07-13T06:49:43.649-07:002014-07-13T06:49:43.649-07:00We're the 'list and forget" kind of s...We're the 'list and forget" kind of sellers. When selling vintage or one-of-a-kind items, we can't expect the right buyer to be looking for our item in the first week we list. We're patient. The item is waiting for the right buyer who always comes along. <br /><br />If we've done our research, then it already has the appropriate price. Our time is spent listing new items. The bigger our inventory, the more search terms we put up to capture buyers.

If an item won't sell after a few 30-Day relistings, it is an opportunity to rethink my listing, subject wording, photos, and price.<br /><br />Of course, I only list dozen of items, not hundreds or thousands.Peter Guesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10579025663050994279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-41482081817168118722014-07-08T06:21:21.068-07:002014-07-08T06:21:21.068-07:00Hi, Brenda, thanks for visiting.
Since this blog...Hi, Brenda, thanks for visiting. <br /><br />Since this blog is posted on Blogger, they set up how comments can be made and what can be linked to. Unfortunately,that is out of my control. I am always a supporter of sellers marketing their stores - but I don't own or control the Blogger platform. Sorry! <br /><br />Thanks again for visiting and commenting.<br />Suzanne A.

Following various sellers helps home-based entrepreneurs feel more plugged in to the system.<br /><br />It would be great for the SEO of individual eBay sellers who are working to market themselves if you would allow your comments to link back to something other than our Google accounts.Treasures By Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18155526615692453789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-12262342376943905292014-07-07T08:41:15.132-07:002014-07-07T08:41:15.132-07:00I have almost 1,000 items listed, and I can't ...I have almost 1,000 items listed, and I can't imagine trying to re-list them every 30 days. I do GTC. That said, when business is slow, I do end some older items, tweak their listing and do a sell similar, and that always seems to lead to a few of those finally getting out the door :)Kimberly Hutmacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05544279741867167860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-62565001180952433782014-07-07T07:23:36.467-07:002014-07-07T07:23:36.467-07:00Now I get it. I have been spending hugh amount of ...Now I get it. I have been spending hugh amount of time listing and relisting and then listing similar the same listing. And wondering is this how ebayworks? I was feeling sorry for the people that make this for their living. To get sells I need to go over 100 items listed manually one by one and lately heard of sacrificeing one or two item selling them like for $.99 free shipping making no profit and even to pay for fees and postage. This strategies work take a lot of time some few sales but at least I can have sales. I urgently need something to have my items up for selling but it takes me like two weeks to get to more than one hundred items and wonder how can people have thousands of listings. It is impossible without a store.I guess. I only get 50 free listings and lately another 50 free listings but when I list fix price the .30 cents fee tells me I am listing in the wrong category. And have to change it to Auction styled. I still do not know how to use fix price on the new 50 listings added monthly. What do I have to list?. Thrifty store and garage sales is what is in my inventory that can not be listed fix price. I have tried. I will investigate those power sellers with huge inventories and see what are they listing for sure they may have a store. What stops me from having a store is that I don't sell enough to get a store. I hope to build my inventory to minimum 150 listings to join. and build up from there. I am sorry I made this too long but it has been years trying without luck. I heard of cassini just recently on your face group. Thanks for all your help. You are a blessing to all of us.simpleisbetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08338939118176458275noreply@blogger.com
