THE EASY ebay EMPIRE ACCELERATOR

SOME OF THE BEST SELLING PRODUCTS ON eBAY

Gym Equipment

You can choose to sell simple weights to sophisticated machines. There are thousands of equipment to choose from, suiting every budget level and every sport. I personally like gym equipment that targets office executives as it is a high-paying client niche. Office injuries are very common and so equipment that target those problems are high-ticket sellers. You can search for multi-purpose equipment including treadmills that help executives walk in the office while they work. 

Perfume

This is a very popular product choice and easily sells in high quantities! Women love to purchase fashion-related items and perfume is no exception! Although there are many other similar products, I find that perfume is easier to sell as women are more active than men when it comes to purchasing scents. There are hundreds of well-known brands to choose from and you can easily discover which products are the most popular.

Samurai Swords

This is very unique yet great selling item, very popular with men as samurai swords are a beautiful art-piece! They come in all sort of different sizes and shapes and can be sold as part of a set or individually. You can start off listing the cheaper beginner style swords then end up listing the more expensive the more custom handmade katanas.

Survival Knives

Similar to samurai swords, they are also a very popular selling item. The difference is not only can they be displayed as art-pieces, they are also extremely practical and there are different survival knives for different functions. Both samurai swords and survival knives can appeal to different niches.

You may also want to consider replica swords and knives from popular movies and TV shows - they are hot ticket items among fans of their respective shows!

Watches

There exists millions upon millions of different watch types and styles, you are never going to run out of ideas with these products. There are watches for every single taste, style and budget, you can profit massively from this one product type alone! There are watches for those that like to splash out the cash, watches for young professionals, watches for fashionable people and watches for those do not need to have the bells and whistles and those on a tight budget. You can also get watches for other niches, such as watches for the army, remote watches, and not to mention smartwatches!

I personally like to target the inexpensive lower to mid-range watches that sell in high quantities just to gain some sales at first then over time diversify into more expensive and unique style watches.

Night Vision Goggles

One of the coolest gadgets you can buy! When I came upon this item I saw that other vendors were selling these very well so I had to get in on the action and I was able to sell quite a few of these myself! Check them out!

Selfie Sticks

Selfie sticks are inexpensive and they sell in MASSIVE quantities! Anyone that's ever walked down a major city especially a tourist hot spot will get why they are major sellers - they are practically everywhere!

Go Pro

These have become major sellers and although they can be quite pricey, they also sell in great quantities. Now we are in an age where people are taking pictures and videos everyday, with Go Pros being the latest cutting edge tech in video capture, you'd be foolish to miss out on this product!

Musical Instruments

Instruments are easy to sell because they appeal to many hobbyists both serious and casual, and there so many different types to choose from. There are drum kits, keyboards, acoustic guitars and flutes etc it's up to you to experiment and decide which instrument sells best.

Phone Cases

Everyone has a smartphone these days and so you'll be target a niche that runs into the millions! Smartphone cases appeal to both the fashionable and the practical and there exists a case for every budget. There are cases designed to look beautiful and colorful and there are cases designed to solely protect the phone from damage. As a phone user yourself I'm sure I do not need to go. Because a lot of these cases can be ordered for cheap, there is plenty of room to increase margins if you are able to nurture relationships with customers. 

I have seen massive success with these niches and I believe they can also work for you! All you have to do is research and write some articles relating to the niches you decided to pick and follow the guide in the Facebook+Google Profit Power Couple.

FOLLOWING UP WITH CUSTOMERS

It is extremely important that you nurture your relationships with your customers. You need to build that familiarity and trust in order to grow your business because ultimately it is your repeat customers and stellar reputation for good customer service is what grows your business, i.e. Pareto's Law.

How it applies to your eBay business is your positive feedback. You need customers to leave you positive comments each and every time you made a successful sale. 

Positive comments = increased awareness for your products = increased sales for you

Following up on your customers is important so that whenever they decide to make another sale, they have you in mind rather than another vendor. Also the trust you build is more important than price, meaning you are able to charge more for your product compared to a vendor that sells it cheaper but had not established a relationship. This is what ultimately helps you drive your business up and compete with the biggest established vendors on eBay.

Non-templates

There are other messages you can send that I would be unable to do templates for that provide familiarity triggers and value giving, and that's information/guides relevant to the product purchased. You want to be providing information is useful for the product and that might lead the customer to make another purchase. For example, if I was selling Go Pros, I would write "5 of the coolest ways to use a Go Pro". If I was selling keyboard, "5 coolest songs you need to learn on keyboard". If I was selling knives "5 best knives to bring with you to camp". Quick Google research can provide you plenty of information of things you can write.

GOLDEN RULES FOR NURTURING CUSTOMERS

  1. Initial messages should have a gap of few days to 1 week each;
  2. Familiarity trigger messages should have a gap of 1-3 weeks each;
  3. Do not have a gap of over a month between messages - this is considered too long!
  4. You should send customers messages regularly but no need to send them everyday otherwise it becomes too much spam;
  5. Always provide value in your messages. Not all templates above were about selling, some were there to provide value and familiarity, this is what sells in the long term. Messages that provide value are not treated as spam;
  6. Similar to last point - do not always sell in your messages, sometimes just provide information or even a quick hello;
  7. When you are selling, provide calls to action and a link to your offers
  8. You can use the same familiarity triggers on the same customers multiple times, but they must be slightly tweaked each time

If you implement these strategies, you will find your customer service to be top notch and they will come back to you time and again!

THE PROBLEM WITH NURTURING CUSTOMERS OVER eBAY 

We have provided you with templates and golden rules in order for you to save time in thinking of ideas and creating messages from scratch. Trust me, that is hours saved on your part!

However even so, you might still find that applying templates and messaging customers individually will still take a long time, especially if you begin to have many many customers! With templates and golden rules we've given you, the time taken to nurture your customers goes from 8-10 hours per day to 4 hours per day. However, wouldn't you like to reduce it to around 1 hour per day?

I'm sure you realize by now the value of spending time nurturing customer relationships on eBay and it would be time well spent. However, the problem with messaging customers on eBay is that:

  1. Your existing customers are not always on their eBay account - a lot of your messages can go unnoticed;
  2. You have to send each message to each customer individually. That means copy/pasting each template AND doing the same tweaks for EACH message for EACH customer!
  3. Difficult to track and keep up with the different stages that the customers are on in your message chain. E.g. if you have 100 customers, 22 might be new purchases so you have to individually send them initial thank you messages. 57 are existing customers so you have to copy/paste familiarity trigger messages. And 21 customers have sent questions so you have to answer each one;
  4. Again if you have 100 customers and you want to let them know of new products, you have to manually copy/paste the same message individually!

I personally prefer to take my customers outside of eBay messages and nurture my relationships over email autoresponders because:

  1. Customers are almost always checking their emails over checking their eBay account;
  2. I can create an email once and it can be sent to all my customers in one click!
  3. I can create a series of emails and all my customers will go through that series without me doing anything else. E.g. if I create a series of 4 separate emails, "Hello", "Take a look at out new products", "Familiarity trigger" and "Let us find that product for you", all new customers will automatically go through that email series in that exact order from the beginning - I don't need to worry about keeping track of every customer!
  4. No need to copy/paste emails individually to each customer. Just copy/paste the templates once, choose which customer you want to contact then simply click to send!
