Get Advice to Deal With Tough Customers April 10, 2009 at 8:42 am Matt B Carter asked: If you are going to sell on eBay, that means you are going to be dealing with customers all over the world. Just like a regular business, you will occasionally run across a customer that is very hard to deal with. 90% of all the customers you will have on eBay are an absolute pleasure to deal with. Its that 10% that can drive you completely crazy, if you let them. It is how you deal with that 10% of troublesome customers that really shows what kind of business person you are. Sometimes these difficult customers can turn into your best customers. Probably the most common problem with buyers on eBay is failure to pay for an item. On eBay, when you bid on an item or “Buy It Now” you are responsible to pay for that item. That isn’t always the case. When you do try and get payments from a slow-paying member, remember to remain professional at all times. eBay products like Selling Manager Pro send automated payment reminders and usually get the job done. After a certain amount of time, if payment isn’t sent by the buyer you can follow eBay’s procedure to get a credit on your lost fees and will put an unpaid item strike against the non paying member’s account. There will always be a number of your customers that won’t be happy with the actual item they bought from you. Just as in life, you can’t make everyone happy. Make your refund policy perfectly clear in your auction descriptions and stick to it. It is much easier to click 3 buttons in PayPal to issue a refund than fight to remove a negative feedback from your account. The first thing to do is say you are sorry when a customer isn’t happy with their item from you. Then offer to do whatever it takes to make it right, including an alternate item or free gift. At that time, offer a refund and issue it if requested. The speed that an eBay buyer gets the item remains a concern, as well. Do the absolute most you can to get an item out fast. If you are sending items from your home or business, don’t wait to send them once a week. Make a trip to the post office every day you have a sale. If you sell through a dropshipping company with your eBay listings, do whatever you can to ensure speedy delivery. Some dropshipping facilities are located in foriegn countries, meaning it will take quite a while for shipment. If you do have lengthy shipment times because of your dropshipping supplier, explain that fully inside your auction description. Sometimes there is just nothing you can do about shipping complaints. I sell eBooks on eBay. eBooks are delivered instantly through a download link in eBay. It is not uncommon for me to get complaints by customers of not getting their item, when the download is sitting in their eBay account. I am sure that sellers with other types of goods have other problems related to their specific products. Remember to always guard your feedback rating on eBay. It is the way that customers see you and decide to buy from you or not. Also, in the eBay PowerSeller program, your feedback ratings can lead to fee discounts. Just like in the real world, there are tough customers to deal with on eBay. Some people are just that way. It is how you deal with these tough customers that makes or breaks you as a seller on eBay. Remember to remain professional at all times and you will be able to deal with almost all the problems that come up while selling on eBay.

Powered by HI-RanK Promotion Earn Money Online in 2 Easy Steps April 10, 2009 at 2:32 am Jeff Casmer asked: Generally, there are two types of work at home agents: those who are earning money online and everyone else. Now while there are numerous methods to earn money on the internet those who are making real money online have employed these two tactics. 1. Market research I’m still surprised at the number of work at home enthusiasts who jump on the boat without doing any sort of preparation. All business, big or small, online or off, should have a business plan. Statistics show that most online businesses fail within three years. This may be due to the fact that 80 percent of online businesses do not know their target market is and what their needs are. This is the result of not doing market research and creating a realistic plan to reach their goal. Market research entails hanging out in forums, participating in discussion groups, and networking on sites that are related to your business idea. Your target market is comprised of a group of people who make up a certain age group, race and gender who share similar interests and needs. This need is what you want to tap into because this is how you’re going to earn money. Let’s say for instance, that you wanted to create a home decor business. During your market research you realized that just-out-of-college students were finding it difficult to keep their new homes trendy with their small budget. Instead of building a website all about general home decor information you would want to focus on targeting young adults and first home buyers. Your business plan should include your competition-who are your top competitors and what are they doing-potential profit margin, the cost of advertising, methods of generating free traffic, highly searched keywords for your niche, as well as knowing whether your target market is growing or decreasing. All this information is necessary because it helps to reassure that this is in fact a viable business plan. It also allows you to discover problems those in your target market have and how to solve them. Once you’ve gathered this information you can then begin to create a product that serves a need. All target markets have a need and in order to earn money online you have to meet it. 2. Create an information product There are many ways to generate an income online. However, the method that most successful work at home gurus use is by creating their own information product. For starters it’s fast. If you write well, you can have your own information product in less than a day. If not, you can hire someone to write it for you. Another reason is because it’s cost effective. “No shipping fees” has a lot of appeal online. And because you don’t have to worry about shipping and postage it a hands free method of earning money online. Going back to the home decor example, your research proved that there are a lot of new home owners that want a nice home with very little to spend. Your e-book could then be about interior design tips for those on a budget. Write your e-book, set up a payment system and then promote your e-book to your target market. Creating a business plan is the first and most important step. It arms you with the information to earn money online. With this information you can then find out what problems need to be solved within your target market and create an information product to solve it.

There is some elements that you must absolutely look for before you start promoting an affiliate product… Tip #1. Promote a unique product to get better results. Promoting a product which is already being sold by hundreds or affiliates will not give you the same results as if you have a unique proposition. A different product that only some affiliates distribute. That kind of program is a little bit difficult to find because it is not in the interest of the merchant to do so in the short term. Tip #2. Powerful and effective affiliates tools. When you are ready to promote, you may be lost if you are new to affiliates marketing. Actually, most of the beginners take months to make their first sale, because the merchant doesn’t help them in their hard work. So be sure to find a powerful and clear affiliates resource section. That will skyrocket your chances of success. Also, a good communication with the merchant is hard to find, but it is a must. Try to find these resources, or some of them. Tip #3. Example of effective resources: * Brandable ebooks to give away or sell at a little price with your own affiliate ID links to generate leads… and sales. * Sales letters provided. * Templates of the emails to send to your list(s), pre-writen email or even better. * Free promotional tips provided, to make money without spending thousands in the beginning (a must for beginners) * Advices and tips for paid promotional techniques (don’t loose all your money in something that don’t bring results). * Redirect links through your own website. For example: http://www.yoursite.com/theaffiliatesite/ * Banners Tip #4. Good Tracking software. It is a very important part. You must be able to monitor almost everything in your resources section: you must be able to track your sales, how many visitors came to your site and to the merchant site, by which page they enter to the merchant site(here is the importance of the redirect links). You must be able to view your payment history, and also how many people signed up underneath you if it is a two tiers affiliate program. Tip #5. Cookies plus IP addresses. Today, it is a common practice by Internet users to clear their cookies daily or weekly. So if you spend money on PPC or any other paid advertising to get a customer, you do not want to see another affiliate get the commission you should have received. So try to choose an affiliate program with a tracking software which take also the IP address of your future customer. By the way, recurring commissions are a must. Last but not least, try to find associate programs with generous compensation plan, and give a preference to the two tiers affiliates programs because you will be paid on two levels. Good promotion, and enjoy your affiliate life. Powered by HI-RanK Promotion   This email was sent to bobonicplague@gmail.com.  Create Your Account Don't want to receive this feed any longer?
