Hello, my name is Janelle Elms - eBay University Instructor and corporate auction coach. Most eBay Stores aren’t used effectively to drive traffic and produce financial results.

Now is the perfect time to get your store ready for the holidays. Sellers are already starting to see an increase in traffic and sales resulting from early holiday shopping.

Is your Store using ALL of the incredible marketing tools that eBay Stores offer? Before we get into specific holiday tips, let’s talk about some of those marketing features that you may not yet be utilizing…

Cross-Promotions – As the proud owner of an eBay Store, you receive cross-promotions of your items on all listing pages, Bid Confirm and purchase Confirmation pages. This allows you to determine which additional items are viewed by your potential/confirmed buyers. This is a powerful tool to use, yet one of more underutilized tools. Too many eBay sellers allow eBay’s default to pick what items your buyer is going to see.

If I am selling Barbie dolls, it doesn’t make much sense to let eBay choose my Black & Decker tools to show that buyer. Instead, by pro-actively using the cross-promotions tool, I could pick that the buyer would see additional Barbie dolls, clothing sets, her cars & houses, and more. By showing the buyer visually similar items, you can instantly increase the amount of items in each sale.

Using this tool is very easy…it’s a matter of selecting the main item and then the additional items you would like to showcase to your buyer. You can cross-promote up to 12 items on the listing pages. You can learn the specifics at: Link
