My Techniques
Package With Care
It’s a good thing all my packages are A.V.T. You never know when Ace will be delivering your packages.
Hi,
I received the Coffee press today, and it was a good thing that you did such a good job of packaging it because 1/4 of the shipping carton had been crushed during transit! I’m sure that if you hadn’t used a sufficient quantity of cushioning material then the glass carafe would have been broken for sure! Thanks very much for your excellent packaging job!!!

eBay Specials
About a week ago we were buried under close to 20 inches of snow here in South Bend Indiana. Two days later the snow and the cold broke and a January thaw came through melting every last inch of snow and all the piles of snow along the side of the road. It’s all gone.
With the warm weather came lots of rain. Some of that rain and melted snow ended up in the corner of my downstairs office soaking some individual boxes of new products I’ve yet to write auction listings for.
Oh well…shouldn’t have known better. And written those auctions sooner

“Watch me Daddy!!!!!!, Watch Me!!!!!!
This online marketing stuff is tricky business for passionate people like me! I have turned the key, finally ignited my online marketing engine and am selling my eBay adventure, and myself in general, in a focused, overt but “Step Selling” method.
“Step Selling” is an intelligent method of marketing or selling I can endorse fully, as it feeds your own excitement to others in bits and pieces so they can swallow your excitement without gagging.

The eBay buck from hell…..Part 1
A couple of months ago after creating this simple eBay profit spreadsheet I determined to raise my shipping rates by $1.00 on a few specific eBay auctions I run.
Well, the day after I had the unmitigated nerve to institute such an outrageously blatant attempt to keep my eBay business solvent, I received an unfriendly email from an eBay auction lurker who must have been following one of these eBay auctions since he got out of diapers.
I’m taking the liberty to paraphrase his email as I don’t feel like rummaging through my past eBay correspondences that I archive in Outlook this morning.

Find a Unique Selling Practice (USP) - A Customer Story
I was wondering when this was going to happen. In almost two years and 5,000 packages shipped out to my eBay customers, the USPS has not lost one of my packages. Looking at the big picture of what the USPS is responsible for handling they do a very nice job.
Yes, I’ve had to correspond with customers concerning packages they thought were lost and advise them to contact their local Post Office but they have always found the package at the Post Office.

On Becoming a “Twit”
I’m entering a new……let’s not edit myself and my ideas so much phase.….So buckle up and hold on to the side rails of your computer chair cause it could get a little crazy round here.
Not judging or editing your ideas is what brainstorming experts making a gazillion bucks call it in the books they sell. I prefer the layman’s definition which is………throwing “a heap of crap” against the wall to see what sticks. You know…….what candidates running for President do every four years, when they try and find negative stuff to publicize about their opponents.
