What are your Ebay Goals? Short term or Long term

Hello Members....;)


 


Just as the title suggests, I would love to hear from other members in relation to their own personal goals or benchmarks that they may have in place right here on Ebay.  Personal sellers, or Store holders do you set your self targets Monthly, maybe you have goals to establish a great service quality.


 


Personally, Our store started last Jan and  from Jan 1st through to Dec 31st we just missed $50,000 in sales by a tiny $17.00. it was our first 12 month cycle and we were fairly happy with the results especially since we were still learning.


This Next 12 month cycle we hope to break $75,000 in sales for the same time period.


We also have wishes to keep our track record in feedback at a very high standard, not for the numbers game but so it can be a reflection to our customer service overall.



Look forward to hearing from some of our members.

Books are cheap and you get them for nicks o/seas with free postage, our postage subsidies these o/seas postal agency's while we languish in no man's land trying to find items that can still be competitive with the high cost of postage we have to factor in to the - do we list it or not question.

Re: What are your Ebay Goals? Short term or Long term

Moorna12, what may seem to you to be a boring and dull life, is to me something that I would not trade in for the world. Yes, I work from home, and some days the hours can be long but with running your own business there will always be positive and negatives, thankfully for me the positives are simply amazing. We have 2 children both under 5, and I am here for them everyday, I get to witness everything that goes on in their life and I would not trade that in EVER for any amount of money a 9-5 could bring.


Perhaps my hours of work was a little misleading, those days where it can be a long 10 hours are certainly not your traditional duties or tasks, I am blessed that what we do is so much dam fun that work is really the wrong word for it. Also your assumptions on earnings is just that an assumption, your mathematics model is based on values you assume to know, our profit points are much much higher than the average sale you would expect from stock standard Ebay business.  We might not be wealthy in your eyes, but in my life I measure my wealth very differently.


 


Well...Its now 1.30pm, and I am finished for the day, so a cute little 4 hours work for a Monday is not bad at all in my books, might take the kids out for lunch now and head down to the beach for the afternoon.;-)

My goal on ebay is too offload all my stock from my clothing shop.  Then reinvest that money back into other stock that i know sells well.

My goal is to feed my op shop addiction by selling off some of the surplus... and to avoid being featured on Hoarders: Buried Alive.


 


It's a tiny income, but we save it for doing only fun stuff. The real work can pay the bills!

Perhaps at 63 (Going on 100 some days) I'm not old by today's standards, so I'll accept the first part as a compliment thanks very much, but the second part only proves you have no idea what you're talking about and shows you're only childishly interested in sniping at any tiny thing possible.


 


Now you can report this reply to get it removed. That doesn't bother me either because I've already said my piece lol.
