Casual Articles - Keeping Good Relations, With Your Ebay Buyers
It is fascinating to study what makes the difference between a person who owns a small struggling business that stays a small struggling business, and a person who owns a small struggling business that becomes a strong, successful business and an industry leader.It boils down to the constant innovation, simplification, and optimization of the key systems in your business. This may seem like a tall order, yes
5. Accept Responsibility
Things do and can occasionally go wrong,even for the best ebay sellers. Items go out of stock, payments may come in but get unnoticed. On many occasions I've been sent a payment, but missed it because the paypal notification didn't arrive. If it's your fault, take the time to apologise, insist it's an iso
Make a good first impressionAppearance is perhaps the most critical element of building a positive first impression. Employers assume that what they see is what they’ll get if they hire your candidate, so make sure that what they see is a consummate professional. Understand that dressing professionally is one of the rules of the business game. Don’t expect to win the game if your break that rule.Pay a
If your trying to make an income on ebay, regardless of whether its a hobby, part time business or full time business your regarded as a professional seller. So, it's essential to remain professional at all times.
Below, are my top five tips for being a professional ebay seller, and keeping good relations with other ebay members though every step of the transaction.
1. Answer emails promptly and politely.
There's nothing worst, than waiting for a response from sellers - especially when your eager to bid or use buy it now. Every ebay member who takes the time to email you, is an interested member. No matter how bad the email is written, spelt or what time it's received. I've almost dismissed emails in the past, thinking from the tone they were not serious about bidding and the sender of the email has gone on to buy multiple items off me - both on and off ebay. Always take the time to respond.
2. Leave feedback promptly
Some sellers use automated feedback tools. This automatically leaves feedback once the buyer has paid or has left feedback for the seller. However, a lot of sellers pretend to use these tools to protect their feedback, claiming feedback will not be left until it is left for them.
As a seller I understand this point of view. However, as a buyer on eBay as long as I bid and pay for the item my responsibilities as a buyer are complete. If I buy an item off you, and it's not as described I have no obligation to try and work things out with you before leaving feedback.
Leaving positive feedback at the earliest opportunity will show you have acted in good faith, and will give your buyer more reason to contact you should things go wrong. Don't hold your buyers to feedback blackmail.
3. Send off goods immediately
How long do you have to wait for your ebay purchases to arrive. If a seller only dispatches items once or twice a week you'll probably have to wait a while. I once waited three weeks for an item to be sent which is extremely annoying. Don't put your winning buyers in the same position, especially if they uses Buy-It-Now so they don't have to wait until the end of a seven or ten day auction to win the item.
4. Double check everything
I've just read a post on the ebay forum, with a seller complaining that he has got negative because he accidently sent out the incorrect item to a winning bidder. Accidents happen, but it wasn't the buyers fault. It's essential to double check everything before you send it out. Why should a winning bidder have to go though the hassle of returning an item and awaiting redelivery of the correct item. They shouldn't.

Parents are always looking for free and easy ways to improve their child's education. School funding plays a big part in the education that your child receives, especially if you are in a smaller school such as a church school or private, independently owned school. There are several school fundraising and fund raiser programs that a parent can participate in that will help with the goal of raising funding for thei

You may often find yourself wondering why some individuals struggle to exist while others have an abundance of wealth. The key to all this is the mindset of the individuals. Those who are wealthy have what many refer to as a millionaire mind. This millionaire mind is a different way of thinking that separates those who are successful from everyone else.When it comes to the millionaire mind the subconscious i

Is it possible to train a natural sales person to show more empathy, to see the world from the customers perspective or to listen more? Well, actually you might be surprised that the best natural sales people already do this and they do it so well and naturally that often we have no idea they are doing it.Yet we wonder why they make more sales. It is important to make sure that those natural salesmen and wom

I approached her sliding glass window and stood in back of a gentleman whom I assumed she was helping. After about three minutes, I realized he was waiting for the office manager and she could have acknowledged my presence. I stepped up to the window; she did not say good morning; she did not smile; she just glared at me. I started to speak; she pointed a finger at a clip board with a paper to fill out. I placed
