3 Ebay Classified Ad Tips for More Cash in Your Pocket

By now you know that eBay's classified ads are great for filling your bank account with lovely cash, but as the competition is heating up, it's time to get serious, so here are three great tips for more profit-pulling ads:

1. Use bullet points in your description. People love lists and would much rather read a list than a paragraph. And the more likely your ad is read, the more sales that you are probably going to make.

If you already have some sales copy written, break them up into a list of the benefits of the product. Keep them short and to the point. People scan pages rather than actually read them.

2. Make sure you tell the customer what to do next - whether that is to send an email for more information, click a link - whatever - just tell them what they need to do.

And while we are on the topic, a big click here button is sometimes not enough - you need to tell your potential customer why they are clicking there. Here are some examples: click here for a free email course, click here for top weight loss tips, click here to paint your house orange ... you get the idea.

Since there isn't a regular buy or bid button on classified ad listings you need to have a strong call to action otherwise your customer won't know what to do.

3. Thinking about what people desire is an important step in choosing a product to promote. It is no good choosing products just because they sound cool, people must actually want the product before they are willing to part with their hard earned money.

So what sort of things do people want? Here are some ideas - losing weight, falling in love and making money. They probably don't care much for an ebook on how to cook toast if you know what I mean.

While listing a classified ad is much like listing a regular eBay auction, because buyers are still getting used to classified ads it's important to tell them exactly what they need to do to buy from you. If you make it easy for them, the more likely it will be for them to buy from you.
