Default Online Selling On Accessories

Anybody had managed to sell anything online, I had been online selling since end of last year, til now I still could not sell out the accessories. I had tried to sell personally to other, it works so maybe my presentation is not well done. Can anyone able to teach how to presentation attractive online.

Cheers

Hi Hanniteo,

First and foremost, your pictures must be appealing. Without a nice picture to attract the attention of the customers, it will be very hard to attract them.

Maybe you can start with using blogs as their templates is highly customizable.

I nv sell accessories online before so not very sure, but most important you need to have visitor have good impression of you product and site, so that they will trust you to deal with you.

a good way will be to ask those that had purchased from you to comment on your site and if they can help refer friends to visit.

ask if they has blog, post there and promote your site ;-)

I've done selling online thru eBay until they have start increasing the prices. That was last year. The response was fantastic. I made quite a sale. So I move to my blog website to promote my accessories. So far not that good as we have to advertise ourselves to let others know we exist.

1) Your website must be nicely done and easy to find the links and all.
2) The pictures of course my be clear.
3) Offer your customers discounts/free gifts/cheap prices.

One way to attract more people to your site is make your URL a signature in your Yahoo, hotmail etc, meaning whenever you send out any mails, the receiver will definietly see your link and wants to open it.

Hello Felisthestore,

Care to share some experience on ebay selling? Coz I always feel that for things to sell at eBay an Yahoo, prices must usually be very cheap. How much do you usually price your accessories at??

Hi Bambie

Well I did some selling on eBay Singapore. That was free at first when I started in early 2005. But somehow they added like to make it bold you need to pay this much, if you need to highlight your picture so it will stand out, you need to pay this much. It's pretty pricey so because of that you need to increase your selling price.

I had a monthly store costing me $24 per month. But because of that I have to increase my prices by like a dollar more. Sometimes I didin't make any profit. One advantage of having a store is that you have an URL but disadvantage is that you need to cover up your store rental prices.

It's kinda hard to maintain my stuff as my working schedule got in the way so that's why I'm opting for blog website to sell my stuff. Just need to work harder to advertise it.

It is still free to sell on EBay..
It's just that you have to pay to set up a store..
But for normal listings with no specialty (e.g bold words/highlight), it is free..
