eBay thoughts and predictions for 2012

You are here: Home / eBay / eBay thoughts and predictions for 2012

3 January 2012 //  by GleaveMedia//  Leave a Comment

So 2012 promises to be a great one for eBay if your business sells online then the chances are eBay should be a part of this strategy.

So our top five predictions for 2012 are;

1 – Top Rated Status

This is going to be even more important to have, you don’t necessarily need this UNLESS you want to power your sales forward. There is no doubt that Top Rated Status when achieved adds alot to your sales channel on eBay.

2 – Named Label Stores

We think eBay will continue to get more named label stores onto the site, they succeeded with Debenhams a while back and more will follow of that we are sure.

3 – Second Hand

We have heard enough news reports about how people are cutting back and buying less, so why not offer them second hand, maybe you have new product that has been returned. You cant sell this as new BUT eBay gives a great market to sell as one owner?

4 – Amazon

I know this post is about eBay but you need to consider Amazon, it is getting more and more popular and you need to seriously consider this as a new sales channel.

and finally 5 – don’t forget mobile

Continued growth in mobile means you just cant forget how important catering for this market is – on ebay you cant do much about this, ebay makes the site mobile ready, just think about how you could bring it into your strategy.

So their you go our five predictions on eBay for 2012, if you business needs help with its ebay selling then why not get in touch now to see how we can really make a difference?

Alistair at Gleave was instrumental in setting up our social media accounts for our biotech cosmetics company. This was particularly complicated as we had to unpick our predecessors work. We now have a very slick system in place which paves the way for us to use advanced analytics to track user experience, website performance and other parameters. Thanks to Alistair and the team!

I have been really impressed with Alistair and his company. They are extremely reactive and explain everything in detail. They have been doing everything that was promised originally and so much more. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for these services.

We asked Alistair from Gleave media to build us a new website which would enable our business to grow, we required a full e-commerce website that was easy to navigate, visually appealing, loads quickly and has a great customer journey. Our CRM,diary booking system and customer finance calculator all had to be integrated. Everything was completed in a timely manner and Alistair is very responsive to the numerous questions that we had. I would highly recommend Gleave media if you are looking for a new website.
