Promoted listings

Greetings Booksellers,

Its taken me a few years BUT i am eventually running a full time used book business on Ebay!

A question tho to all serious booksellers......has anyone used promotions listing for books  in a major way?

I havnt yet but willing to try it with most books if I can get enough peer group encouragement. I can see it working with clothes or elctronics stuff but what about books....please help!

Thanks

You only need to promote items that have a lot competition and then only if the item is not something that will eventually sell out leaving yours the last to buy. Same as selling items with minimal competition and only a few show up in search so no need to promote unless its an item that may need promoting due to no one searching for it as they search a different brand.
