This post is about the new eBay change
in selling digital products in their marketplace.

Here is the related link:

My thoughts:

Ebay will do what they think benefits the majority
of their users. In this case they decided to crack
down on the “sneaky” sellers that abuse the feedback
system and YOU as the honest seller, are also affected.

Personally, I see this as a GREAT opportunity for
people that understand marketing to thrive.

It actually reminds me of 5-6 years ago when digital
products were actually selling for real money.
This policy will weed out the people that bring
YOUR prices down to almost nothing.

This is NOT the time to give up.
To the contrary, this is the time to see
the opportunity and take advantage of it.

I have been teaching my students for some
time now, to use ebay as a LEAD GENERATION
system and not necessarily to make profits
from the actual items sold through the auction.
The REAL money is the money you can make from
promoting more expensive and related items to
those leads.
You start by instantly upselling an item immediatly
after the ebay sale, and continue to promote to
that customer all the way down your marketing funnel.

Dear Blog Reader,

After MANY requests I am doing a
series of Lessons to educate
YOU, of all the stuff you can do
with MyDD to superBoost your Business…

Today’s Topic:

Multiple Item Sales/Auctions

Starting with MyDD 3.1, (released
Dec 11, 2007), MyDD can also handle
Paypal “Add to Cart” Buttons

AND…

Multiple Items on eBay. This means
that your website or ebay customer
can purchase More than ONE item in the
SAME transaction and MyDD will
automatically handle the SECURE delivery
of ALL items in that transaction.

If you havent downloaded MyDD yet
go here:

Here are some profit boosting ideas:

1. If you currently sell ONE product
on your website, replace the Buy now
button with an Add to Cart button,
and allow the customer to “ADD” an
cheaper related item to their purchase
(over 28% take My addon)

2. On your ebay store, you can now
encourage people to buy more items
for a shipping discount.
(MyDD will send all of them)

3. Have a “resource” type store
with ALL your digital products
on your website and send
customers AFTER they buy from
you on ebay for more stuff
(hint: use add to cart Buttons to
allow people to buy multiple
items from your resource store)

Today’s Topic:

** Build your Email List
Automatically with MyDD

** 4 Profitable Ideas to
Put into Action Immediately

Starting with MyDD 3.1, (released
Dec 11, 2007), MyDD can also be
integrated with ANY autoresponder
service or mailing list software.

This means that your website or
ebay customer can be Automatically
added to your mailing list at the
time of their payment (while you
are out doing something else)

this is VERY powerful. In fact,
MyDD can add your customer to
a DIFFERENT mailing list Based on
the Product they purchased.

This way you can keep your lists
segmented so that you can do very
targeted promotions.

If you haven’t downloaded MyDD yet go here:
http://mydigitaldispatch.com/recommends/MyDDn_tip2

Here are some profit boosting ideas:

1. Find some affiliate programs
that are very targetted to the
digital products you sell on ebay
and create an autoresponder series
promoting the aff. programs.
MyDD will handle the “adding” to your
autoresponder so you can make
autopilot commissions

2. Using an autoresponder system, send
your customers more offers automatically
at regular intervals after they
purchase. (after 1 day, 3, days, 5 days
etc). Based on my tests, I get
over 18% conversions up to the 8th
time I send an email about the SAME
offer. dont leave money on the table.

A few days ago I got a question from a coaching student
of ours and I got her permission to post the answer on
my blog because I felt it can help you too:

(Note: we just completed our 4 week intensice coaching
program and we are getting ready to start the new one
on July 1st. More info about this here…)

Here is the email i got:

Dear Socrates,

It is very cool to meet internet marketers who are so
sincere in helping others.
You and Henry really know a lot about staying ahead of trends.

How do you do this? This is the secret to everything I suspect.
I love all of the knowledge I have gained. I am ready to kick this
into high gear, but not until school is finished.

Teaching is a dynamic, stressful enterprise and to do
anything well, I prefer working well, that means not
too much a day and still taking care of my health.
It is overwhelming when there is too much to do.
