Is Inactivity Losing You MONEY On Ebay?

When you are the owner of a business, or the boss of a company, you want to see work coming through and flowing daily, the same thing is true for ebay and what they want to see from their store owners. Consistent, daily ebay activity is the number one tip I can give anyone using ebay as a reselling format. After surviving a 30 day suspension and trying different way of listing and scheduling, a little bit every day gives the absolute best results I have tried so far. Not only will it show ebay that you are a serious reseller, it will help you to create a constant flowing income by always having something fresh and rotating in your store.

When ebay places a suspension on an account, it takes away the opportunity to list new items. During a 30 day suspension I had nine items sell. During the 30 days I was anxiously awaiting the suspension to life and the store to go back to normal, meaning I would have the same standings, my posts would be promoted and my sales would be flowing however this was not the case. Within ebay, they are always watching sellers and taking into account the amount of work that is happening to keep the stores profitable. Like any other major company or business, having consistent work put in and up keep done on the daily, there are going to be higher rewards seen. When you go inactive and try to let items run their course ebay sees in the inactivity and they are less likely to be of any assistance in getting your items seen.

When first starting there was a kind of overflow work habit being put in; first one full day of sourcing, then one full day of listing. The items wouldbe posted for the 30 day time span and would either sell or go stale. What I have found in growing my business is that this strategy is stressful, it but an imbalance in your work flow which again looks like inactivity to ebay. A better way to focus your time and energy would be to put work in daily this makes it easier on you and will help elevate your standings within ebay. Whether there are new items to be listed for the first time, or your updating older ones in order to keep your inventory fresh and relevant this will help keep your store full of inventory and you sales consistent. . Consistency is the key to many things in life and working as an ebay reseller that cannot be any truer. Working daily on listing and getting posts active will show ebay that you are putting in the work, you will start making consistent sales, and they will work in your favor to help promote your store and get your listings to the top sides of the searches. If you ever get stuck without a new item to list, take your older listings and give them a refreshers, this will show ebay that you are still putting in the work as well as getting the item in front of fresh eyes where you can potentially make a sale!
