Summer is here….

May 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Looks like summer is here and boy what a season, everything is growing and getting green. I know that alot of you out there will be going on vactions, weekend trips, etc.

So take this as a reminder from Sparky and the ebay & Beyond gang, list your auctions so that they end when your home, not on the road so that you’ll be able to take care of your customer with emails, invoices, shipping in a timely maner.

Customer service is what will help build your business better than most anything else.

Keep your buyers happy and they will return time and time again.

What Did You Learn From the OLA Rummage Sale?

May 11, 2008 · 1 Comment

You Know this blog is supposed to be about my side of the mic, so I hope I can tell my side and not bore you to much.

The OLA Rummage Sale has come to an end. Some wonder what has the OLA Rummage Sale done for me! From my point of view  a lot. 

I will admit I’m not a seller and don’t claim to be one, so many may just blow this off, I hope not.

The biggest winner from the auction was the person or persons who participate in the first place.

They came and stumbled trying to list on a new platform for them, and it seemed there was just a ton of help for them when they fell down and just couldn’t seem to get it right. Wow to me that’s a plus..Getting to know each other.

Then there’s the new buyers that came or did I miss that someone sold something?

 New people, and what do you do when you find something good ? You get what you can, then tell another person and so forth. Don’t you think they told others of the bargains on OLA? More exposure thats a plus.

I think some of OLA’s staff came to know all of us a little better and how strong we are…. and will be there as they have been to pick us up when we stumble. 

Remember if I’m right this place is going to get big. Kinda nice to know the folks that run the place when you need to talk to them. Or even have someone to talk with.

 When things are small and time is not to busy, lets build on what we have learned, not on what we don’t have.

Have you subscribed to the RSS feed yet?

You know I’m a little slow when it comes to computers as I have told some of you in the past, so this won’t come as a total suprise.

But if you have’nt subscribed to the RSS feed or the subscribe window and sign up on our web site www.basicstobusiness.com you need to look into this feature on your computer. It makes it a lot easier to find out when there is new material for you to hear from ebay & beyond Basics to business.

I know there are many who all ready know how this works and use it regulary,  but I think there are some like myself that are just learning, so look at this, find a freind  to explain this better.
