I can show you how to make money on eBay the easy way!

What are the easiest things you can do to get repeat customers and increase your profits on eBay? Take these 2 easy steps...

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • eBay Account
  • Will to Succeed and Make Money on eBay!
  1. Step 1

    Get a domain name for your store. It's easy and is very inexpensive.

    I use GoDaddy and a domain name is only usually $7-9 per year.



    Meaning, does your eBay Store domain look like this

    http://stores.ebay.com/Tickled-Turtle-Boutique

    or like this

    www.tickledturtle.com

    Which one is easier for your customers to remember and to put on your business cards? Make it easy for them to find you again!

    After you purchase your domain name there is an option for domain forwarding. Simply forward the long name: http://stores.ebay.com/Tickled-Turtle-Boutique to your new easy-to-remember domain.

    This is without a doubt the cheapest and most helpful thing you can do to grow your eBay Business!

  2. Step 2

    Include promotional items in every package. Whether it be a business card, flyer, coupon for a future purchase, magnet, notepad, etc.

    Give them an easy way to find you again! You want to keep your customers coming back again and again....

    And, the best news is here is a place to grab professional marketing promo tools at amazing prices and sometimes FREE!

    Here's the trick with them for getting FREE stuff:

    You have to sign up for their email alerts to be offered the free or good discounts. I had one this week for 250 premium business cards for only $3.99 regular price $19.99, plus lots of free items.

    From this week's promotions I ordered 250 premium business cards, 10 personalized notecards, 100 postcards (I will use as package insert), 1 personalized pen, 1 personalized notepad, 250 wallet calendars, and 140 return address labels. Everything was FREE except for the business cards and they were on special for $3.99. So, for all this I paid $3.99 plus shipping

    Wow, that's a sweet deal! Everything has my store name and website address on it.

    With every package I sell now, I will enclose a business card, wallet calendar, and postcard to advertise my website www.powersellerincome.com.

    They run different promotions weekly so get signed up for their newsletter.

    One promotion they run continuously is free regular business cards. Get your order in now to enclose these with all your holiday orders. It's a great time to advertise your business!

  3. Step 3
