How To Sell More On eBay – Proven Products – HIDDEN Information!
I’m doing a series of quick videos about how to sell more on eBay. This week’s quick video,I’ll show you exactly what is a proven product,and I’ll show you how to see the information that eBay keeps hidden. If anybody knows this channel,my name’s Neil Waterhouse and I’ve been selling on eBay for over 25 years. I’m the author of MillionDollar eBay Business from Home and create a of Dropship Formula.
So everybody wants to find the Golden Egg product to sell on eBay, the small, cheap lightweight product that you can buy for say $5 and sell on eBay for say, $50 and it sells a thousand times a month, and you can ship it with free shipping andit’s got no competitors. Now, amazingly, a lot of people spend a ton of time researching for this Gold Egg, but here’s the reality.
Even if you do manage to find this elusive gold egg that sells like hot cakes with no competition how long will it be before competitors find the product and simply copy it? Items that hit the market and go viral like say a fidget spinner very quickly appear on the radar for product researchers.
But here’s the big thing. If your goal is to buildan automated online business that runs and grows by itself you must build a business that runs and grows by itself without you. And you do this by using automation software wherever possible at low-cost overseas virtual assistants for the other tasks. If you don’t automate the business you’re just building yourself a job.
If you’re an amazing product researcher and you do manage to find the elusive gold egg how long will it take you to find the second Gold Egg and a third, fourth, et cetera? I’ve been selling onlinefor over 25 years, and despite selling literally millions of dollars of items myself and my team havenever found the golden egg. However, what we do find literally every day is proven items as the old saying goes,many streams make a river.
Personally, I prefer to have many products listed that sell over and over than just a few golden eggs. So what is a proven item for us? We want to see proof that an item has a proven demand. We want to see a proven sales history on eBay. Now, the only indication of how well an item will sell in the future that we use is from its past sales history.
An eBay can show the dates, time, and quantity items have sold, as I’ll show you just before I show you that. For dropship items to meet the criteria to be a proven dropship item, the item must have sold twice or more in the last 30 days bya proven dropship seller and at a profit. For import products, the product must have sold a minimum of 45 times in the last 90 days, and at a profit or 15 times a month for three months, same thing, 45 times.
Let me show you for this example. I’ve clicked on a tool sharpener. As per the screenshot notice,this item has sold 14 times. This is the exact date and time as 14 have sold,known as item purchase history. Use the U R L on the Screen, but replace the 12 Xs with a 12-digit eBay item number. Every item on eBay has a 12-digit item number, for example, here’s the same U R L but I’ve replaced the Xswith an eBay item number.
Let’s know how to sell more on eBay 2024 – click through rate (CTR). Now, the eBay item number for any eBay listing is shown within the U R L at the top of your browser when looking at any item on eBay. And the item number is also approximately a third of the way down the eBay listing on the right hand side. Now you’ll be able to see the sales purchase history for the item that you’re researching.
Note though that eBay will only show in the item purchase history the last 90 days. So the item may say it’ssold a hundred times but the item purchase history may only show, say 20 sold. This is because the itemhas sold a hundred times since it was listed but only sold 20 timesin the last 90 days. The big advantage of using proven items like this is twofold with proven result.
There’s no guessing, butinstead of strict criteria for virtual assistantsto follow personally I’ll always take an accurate measurement over a thousand expert opinions. The second reason I like proven items is it’s a duplicatable formula. So you can have your low-cost overseas virtual assistants from a dollar per hour doing all your product research for you.
