Make Your List and Check It Twice!

These are some really great tips from eBay to get your listings fully charged for the holiday season!

Ramp up now for holiday selling
Here are some easy ways to prepare for and take advantage of the increased traffic that comes with the holiday season:

  • Research products you’d like to sell, and determine which ones are in demand.
  • Stock up on inventory now so you don’t run out.
  • Order shipping supplies before the rush begins.
  • Offer free shipping and expedited shipping.
  • Provide tracking and delivery confirmation numbers to help reduce buyer questions.
  • Recommend other great gift ideas in your listings to encourage additional sales.
  • Reduce buyer questions by updating your Q&A page with common holiday season questions like “Will my item arrive by December 24?”
Attract buyers to your store
Add some holiday cheer to keep buyers coming back to your eBay Store. Some tips to drive holiday sales and turn casual shoppers into repeat customers:

  • Add a holiday theme to your listing templates.
  • Use holiday colors on your packing slips and invoices.
  • Provide holiday recommendations for him and her, the kids, etc.
  • Include a coupon with shipments, enticing buyers to start the New Year off with another purchase.
  • Use Markdown Manager to create special, limited time holiday events.
  • Add tons of high-quality pictures to your listings. They’re free for Premium and Anchor Store subscribers–good reason to upgrade if you have a Basic Store.

And remember, you can now put all your Fixed Price listings on vacation while you’re away!

 

Sell for a cause
Turn any item into a feel-good gift–sell with eBay Giving Works.
