Book Description
In the ultracompetitive dot.com world, few Web sites have become household names. eBay is one that is not just a success story, it's a sensation. The site, which is used by over 50 million people in 27 countries, projects an annual revenue of $1.1 billion for this year alone. What makes eBay so successful? It lets everyday people realize the dream of becoming an entrepreneur--and all from the comfort of home. Even the busiest of people can easily sell their antiques, collectables, clothes, and even handmade crafts to people all over the world.
For some, selling on eBay and other online auction sites is a way to supplement their income or an extension of an established retail store; for others, it's a fulltime job. And anyone who wants to sell successfully needs to know not only the basics steps for selling online, but also the strategies that will consistently get them the highest bids and happiest customers.
