I’m humbled to say the least!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about my training tutorials here at the UndergroundAuctionLab and for acknowledging all the hard work and time that it takes.

That inspires me to do more …..

Please keep me posted on your eBay success. And remember, don’t be afraid to actually “ask” visitors to buy from you!

Happy Holidays!

Blessings – Duane

Welcome to the UndergroundAuctionLab! And thank you for posting your thoughts and sharing your situation. I appreciate that very much!

First things first…..

Take a deep breath and realize that everything will be fine. You see, I’ve been where you’re currently at and what I’ve learned from being in those situations is that FEAR will paralize you and keep you from success. And we don’t want that to happen to you…

When Heather and I first started eBay – we didn’t have a home, car, money, computer, internet access or anything other than the cloths on our back.

I was scared to say the least. And because I allowed “fear” to consume me – it paralized me from making money. In other words – my mind was filled with “poverty” thoughts rather than thoughts of “prosperity” (making money).

I had 4 lives that depended on me to feed, cloth, shelter and take care of them. So I had to learn quickly how to conquer that fear.

What I did was take a deep breath and realize that the worst had already happened. And now it was time to focus all my thoughts and energy on dominating the eBay market that we were in.

I didn’t learn it all in one day – but I did learn. I didn’t make six-figures in my first month – but I did make it.

The point here is that it’s a process because there isn’t just one “magic bullet” that you can press and make it all happen.

As long as you’re learning, listing and selling – then you’re headed in the right direction.

You asked a great question……

Tell me if a buyer puts in search for an item and all these sellers come up with the same thing, what will make them click on my store if I’m selling it at a higher price?

And here’s the short version answer (only because this question is so good that it would take a video to explain the full answer)…..

The “sub-title box” is what causes them to “click thru”. It acts as a “detour sign” to slow all that traffic down, notice you and “click thru” to your auction.

And your sub-title box must answer the WIIFM (what’s in it for me) question that your market is asking with all the “BENEFITS” that “THEY” will gain.

Most eBay sellers will not use a sub-title box because they look at it as an expense rather than an investment (big mistake). And the reason why is because they aren’t making enough money to justify the cost.

Which means that they don’t have their “offer” priced profitably that will allow them to succeed or they’ve entered into the wrong market to begin with.

Go watch these videos if you haven’t done so yet. They will help paint a clear picture:

Establish Your Offer

Structure Your Offer

Package Your Offer

I hope this helps….

Thank you so much for your tutorials. I paid a lot of money for other different materials which were supposed to teach me how to increase my sales but none of them worked. I haven’t seen so much useful info in the paid materials as you are providing here for free and want to thank you for your effort and time. Please continue posting, you are giving hope to so many people!

I have tried your methods and can see that there are a lot more “watchers” on my eBay items. My sales didn’t increase yet, but it is too early to say because it’s been only 1.5 weeks since the new changes. I will try my best to update about the progress.

Happy holidays to you and your family!

I’m watching your videos and I hope I’m learning what you are trying to teach. I am so totally new at this that it seems overwhelming with all the different materials to read, however I can say yours makes the most since.

I was let go from my job which I made really good money at…I was a sales person but never considered my self to be one…Meaning I knew the product inside and out and I knew every aspect of the different departments because at some point in my life I worked in them which gave me an advantage.

I understand under promise and over deliver completely, however I was able to do this with straight forward communication and following though with what was needed to get the job done.

Tell me if a buyer puts in search for an item and all these sellers come up with the same thing, what will make them click on my store if I’m selling it at a higher price?

I plan on doing the following and tell me if I’m missing something please and If I could be doing something different.

1. Free shipping
2. A 14 day return policy and I pay for the shipping for the return.
3. I will personalize each item that goes out with beautiful wrapping and a thank you card
4. always asking for referrals
5. Great customer service, by e-mailing and complete communication.

But all of the above is done over the internet with no direct contact, so what makes them come to you?

I have invested money in this that I don’t really have and I don’t just want to make a few dollars, I would like to feed my family and pay my bills and as I’m a single parent with one Daughter in college and two still at home. I really don’t want this to fail, but I’m scared to death…

Sorry to go on and on.
