Helping You Take Your Business To The Next Level

Browsing Posts published in August, 2008

For a long time I have been looking for a site or a program that can help me with my online business ventures including eBay and Amazon and other leading online ventures.

I looked at many and joined a few and although they gave some information it did not offer the whole show.

Then along came OSI RockStars hosted by Janelle Elms.

OSI RockStars was started by Janelle Elms who has a vast expieience of Online selling with eBay and she is one of their leading eBay Instructors, and speaks all over the USA for eBay.

She also has a her own very profitable eBay businesses. This is something that makes OSI RockStars so different, all the people who teach the classes (podcasts, and webinars) are people with vast expierience on the things they teach.

This is so different from courses who are by written just by writers who have no experience of what they teach.

OSI RockStars has well over 200 hours of classes, that will help you take your eBay or online business to the level.

OSIRock stars is excellent for those who are new to online selling , and it also works just as well for those who have well established online businesses.

So go and give it a look and see for your self you will not be be let down.

Well almost here at the weekend and I have decided to post this a day earlier this week as might not be able to get to my computer. Can you believe that we are on number 008 of my product source section of this blog ?

Anyway my product source for this week takes us into the computer accessories.

sda1

The company is called SDA Trading and they can supply all types of computer accessories and their prices are very good.

Also they have a low order amount, which is very handy for eBay and Amazon sellers, so that we do not have money tied up in stock.

It is quite straight forward to ask for a Trade Account and once accepted you can access their Trade Price List which is kept in a password protected part of the website.

The Price list comes in a excel format and is very easy to understand.

Well hope this Product Source helps you with your online selling.

Yesterday while I was working online I got an MSN message from a local girl I have been helping with her eBay business, we have never met but it has all been done online. She is now able to sell some of her baby stuff.

Anyway she sent me a message that something she had bought for her Mum on the 29th July had not arrived, now I did say to her to was only t days including the weekend, but she was not a happy bunny.

Now my girl had paid straight away via paypal, and had emailed the seller saying so.

Nothing from the buyer.

Next day came my girl checked and it had not been sent, so re-emailed – nothing from the seller.

In total my girl had sent 4 emails and had nothing from the seller.

Now Andrew comes into the picture on Monday – I did say it had only been just the week, but said yes the buyer should have got back.

So asked my girl to give the sellers ID, so could check feedback .

It was very good and high

But I say that the last two had been left that day 4th August so checked when they had bought, guess what the 29th.

So said to my girl, I have a feeling it will arrive today. Guess what it did.

What am I saying here :

If you are a seller, send out on time and reply to all emails from buyers.

So ended up with one happy buyer.

Happy eBaying

I have decided for this week, instead of listing a Trade Show as such to list a general Show that is open to the public.

The Show is :

Crafts For Christmas
13-16th Novemeber
Hall 12
NEC Birmingham

Thursday to Saturday 9:30 AM – 5:30 PM
Sunday 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM
To Buy Your Ticket Hotline: 0871 945 6000

At the show you will find a vast range of stands over 200 selling all types of craft and craft related items.

Now when you go to this show, think outside the box. You can go as a buyer and see what people are buying. Stand and watch which stands are popular.

You can go with your Trading Assistant hat on and offer your services.

You can go as an Education Specialist and try and get some clients.

You can go and try and find a product source.

You can go and see what the new Craft Trends are going to be.

But above all go and have fun.

BANS

Well at 9pm I took the plunge. I opened my Wallet and took out my card, blow off the cobwebs, and bought the BANS software.

At 9.10pm I logged into my hostgator account and found a domain name that I was not using. (For those tech people out there I have a resellers account, so It is rather like having a new account – it costs me $24.00 a month)

At 9.20pm I followed the detailed instructions – Note here it is worth while to print these out as you can keep by you as you set up the account)

At 9.30pm I started the upload using Cute FTP.

At 9.45pm I hit a snag with one of the folders it said an error had happened, but to be fair I think that was my fault as my computer had decided to do a virus check and some other stuff..

At 9.50pm I had taken off the script folder.

At 9.53pm I had re loaded the script folder and all was well.

At 10.02pm I had the script loaded onto my account.

It was as easy as they say.

Tomorrow I will start to add content, and also let you have a look at my work.

This will be a thread in progress.
