Fashion Forward – Hot Fashions this Fall on eBay

The new season’s fashion trends are on the cover of every style magazine in the grocery store checkout lane, fall fashions are finding their way from the runway to closets across the nation. You have the ability to help the fashion conscious who may not be able to afford the prices of Madison Avenue and Rodeo Drive put together the season’s hottest looks by letting them know they can find fashions from all around the globe on eBay.

Need some fashion inspiration? These items are already hot sellers on eBay.

Clothes Minded
Classic cardigans and straight-leg pants by popular and accessible brands such as Abercrombie, Anthropologie, and J. Crew can help both women and men nab the top looks of the season without going broke.
A designer dress or jacket in olive green or khaki, the hot hues of the season, are a great buy for the fashion-minded with a more expensive discernment. The only way to make it better is to get it from a design house as popular as Oscar de la Renta or Dolce & Gabbana. Women aren’t the only ones who covet the designer brands, casual shirts and iconic suits by Armani can make any man feel and look like a million bucks. With your help they can acquire these fashions without spending nearly as much, on eBay!

Shoes Wisely
Women’s feet everywhere will celebrate! Comfy flats and kitten heels are in, and the sky-high heels are taking a backseat this fall. Just don’t try to tell that to those that adore Choo, Manolo, and Louboutin; they wouldn’t even consider stepping out in anything less than four-inch heels.
Boots remain a fall standard that go well with skinny jeans, dresses and leggings (yes they are back again this season, whether you love them or hate them).

Putting It All Together
The secret to accomplishing a truly put together, fashion-forward look is to choose your accessories wisely. Autumn statement pieces like chunky necklaces, scarves, and waist cinching belts can instantly convert a ho-hum look into one that wows. Structured bags in classic shapes and soft embellishments like ruching and pleats give much wanted handbags a more feminine allure than the metal embellishment trend of the previous seasons.

For men, carbon fiber and black steel watches are replacing their flashy gold and silver counterparts this fall. Seven-fold ties in bold patterns and colors can dress up an otherwise basic outfit.

Football Season is Here, Get What You Need on eBay

Football is an American tradition, with the entire season being celebrated by millions each year. Whether you enjoy tailgating at the stadium or watching the game from the comfort of your own home; it is best celebrated with good food, thirst quenching beverages, and as many family and friends as you can get together.

As you might expect, devoted fans started thinking about preparation for the games well before the first pre-season match was underway. Demand for football-themed items tends to start picking up in mid-August and continues throughout the season into the playoffs and bowl games.

Many site visitors will be seeking ways to show support for their favorite teams, collegiate and professional. So try thinking like a fan to considerably gain extra revenue by directing those avid fans to eBay.

My Team’s #1
Who are you cheering for? Everyone has a favorite team, and online searches for those favorite college and pro teams intensify during this time of the year. If the teams for NFL Super Bowl were decided based on the team’s eBay popularity, the Pittsburgh Steelers, Green Bay Packers, Dallas Cowboys, or the Chicago Bears would all have an excellent prospect. In the NCAA circuit, Ohio State, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida would be chosen to play in the BCS’ top-tier bowls every year.

Essentials for Tailgating
Some may think that tailgating before or even after the game is more fun than the game itself. Especially if you have the correct gear to provide a festive atmosphere (or if you are being forced to root for the Detroit Lions). Knowledgeable hosts aren’t going to find the truly exceptional items at their local party store – eBay is a great place to go for tailgating gear. From portable grills to team logo chairs to canopy tents, genuine tailgaters can find the unique items they are looking for on eBay.

It’s All in the Cards
Sports trading cards have always been a hot collectible on eBay, and fans begin to think about collecting and buying modern and vintage cards as they cheer on their favorite players. While you are there, check out the other sought-after sports collectibles on eBay, including lots of vintage memorabilia like photos and tickets.

Game Time!
There is just one more important item that every football fan is needing… a ticket to the game! Now is the time when the truly serious fans are looking to get a hold of a pair of season tickets. As the season gets underway, supply and demand for single game tickets to NCAA and NFL football games will increase even more.
Being creative you can capitalize on one of America’s favorite pastimes, even if your website is not strictly sports-oriented. Keep aware of the teams making headlines and plays to score big with visitors who are searching the web for relevant content and neat finds.

Wishing you many victories this football season!

Build Your eBay Blog Step By Step

Hey there!  I hope you are enjoying having the kids back in school!  I sent my 7 year old to 2nd grade today.  Any anxiety she had went away when she saw her girlfriends at the bus stop again for the first time since June.  Everyone around here scatters when school lets out.  Summer camps, shore homes, family vacations and get togethers.  It’s like a reunion the first day of school.  Hopefully there won’t be too much girly drama as the school year progresses.

With my daughter in 2nd grade and my 17 month old in for a nice long nap, I sat and enjoyed some quiet time.  It was so nice.  :-)   I was able to READ my email in one swoop with no interruptions, print some shipping labels and get my eBay packages ready to ship without little helping hands.  It was a nice day and I’m hoping for more quiet time to sit down and take some learning courses this season. 

I really thought about how I want to up my Blogging game.  I say it time and time again how important it is to have an eBay blog along with your eBay store.  I love wordpress.  It’s SO easy even the most inexperienced person can tackle it and feel good about it as early as their first day. 

But you may be hesitant on where to start?  I know, I know – I’ve been there, and some days I go back to basics to fine tune things – just like I plan on doing this fall.  My colleague Kelly McCausey has a new course out that you may find helpful.  After fully completing the lesson plans – you’ll have raised your level of exposure in the blogosphere, added more than fifty pages of content to your blog, built some great relationships and incorporated new profit points into your content.

Here are some lessons you can look forward to -

  1. Writing a Great ‘About Me’ Page.
  2. Post to Blog Daily.
  3. Grow RSS Subscribership.
  4. Increase Comment Activity.
  5. Increase Inbound Links.
  6. Find Related Affiliate Programs.
  7. Participate in a Cross Blog Conversations.
  8. Participate Blog Memes.

It is really a great starting point, and the best part about it is you can always go back and look through each lesson if you get stuck.

Have a whirl at it and let me know what you think!

September = Back To School With eBay!

Hey  there!

I hope you are getting ready to enjoy your holiday weekend!  Only a handful of days until my daughter is back in school, and I have some much needed extra time to work on my eBay listings!  While my oldest is starting 2nd grade, it will be just me and my 17 month old.  I’m a little over flowing with inventory these days.  Two growing girls in the house, means four times the amount of clothing to sift through each season!  Of course, it also means CHA-CHING – as I make more money on eBay!

I had a few different things to celebrate this month.  My birthday just passed at the end of August, our 15th wedding anniversary – Labor Day – Back To School…  But most of all, getting back to basics with eBay.  September is a great month to start fresh and jump in with both feet to ramp up your eBay sales.  It’s also the time of the year
where we start to think about how much money we need to buy our kids the costumes they want for Halloween AND the toys they want for Christmas!  YIKES – that’s just around the corner, isn’t it?!
