My sales have just about dried up in both my shops, from multiple daily sales in each, I am down to the odd small sale in one or the other every 2-3 days.  eBay insist I am visible, and advise using the seller centre hints to try to streamline my listings to make them more attractive.....yeah right, that means paying listing fees for auctions, offering free postage and 1 day handling and basically anything that puts more money into eBay's coffers. 

 

I decided to try Promoted Listings instead, another site I sell on has those and they work quite well for me (same product line).  I set up a campaign in each shop, went with the default 5% commission, but in the first few days I am seeing quite a lot of impressions, but precious few clicks, 1 on one shop and 2 on the other.  Okay, eBay only charge the commission on sales, not clicks, which I guess is reasonably good, as the other site charges per click.  But the results so far just make me more convinced I've been squeezed out this month.  My total sales across both shops are about 25% of normal.

 

Has anyone who has used these Promoted Listing had good sales from them?  Any tips for using them?

 


I thought I would try this out I put 1 item up started on the 19th to end on the 31st also did 5% so far I have not even had 1 impression so your doing a bit better than me
