PROMOTING MYSELF AS A BONANZLE SELLER

Self Promotion



One of the hardest things I have found since joining Bonanzle is Self Promotion.


I am not the kind of person who goes about town or country screaming from the rooftops

"hey, look at me ...here I am.....buy from me".


I am instead, relatively quiet and believe in the "soft sell" approach. I have done everything that has been suggested. I have joined so many groups from Facebook, Twitter, Plumdrop, Oodle, Link Referral and all. I could go on to list a gazillion places. All of these require an enormous amount of time to be constantly keeping them updated. This also includes this blog site. The Bonanzle forums. The Bonanzle games. The self promotion on Yahoo.


The one thing that I have gained the most enjoyment and self satisfaction doing is my blogs.

I hated composition when I was in school. But now I find that it gets the mind working and trying to be creative. Hopefully, some of my topics get you to thinking as well...or at the very least gives you a chuckle for the day.

I only have one question. Is all this work worth it? That is questionable. Has it increased traffic to my booth? Yes. Has it brought in buyers? No. All sales I have gotten have come from Google or other sellers on Bonanzle. Everyone is blaming the economy for lack of sales. Do I truly believe this? NO! Do I believe that some are cutting way back on their spending? Yes! But NOT everyone. So, what is the answer to this dilemma?



I believe that the following has a great deal to do with whether one is successful or not in on-line selling.

• trustworthy and honest vendor
• quality products
• reasonable pricing (value for the dollar)
• great customer service
• quick shipping
• good selling platform
  

If the above list is what you are looking for in an on-line seller, then you must stop by my booth at http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/jinx_stuff . You won't be disappointed. I have an eclectic variety of items. Something for everyone. Some new and some gently used. If I would not buy it myself ...I do not list it.

I strive for Customer Satisfaction!!!!

If you are not a happy customer and are not satisfied, then you will not tell your friends and family where you made your great purchase. I admit it.....I want you to spread the word. So you know I will do everything in my power to ensure YOU are happy.

With all of the above said, I will now stop my tirade of SHAMELESS PROMOTION. I will also take off my socks and learn to count because that was more than one question.....oops!!!!!

A short post script from my previous blog about Mickey and his escape escapades......he has been a good boy and has not been trying to escape the back yard. I guess I have installed enough lattice to block every conceivable opening. With that said...he'll probably find a way out tomorrow.

Until next time everyone....

Be Happy ......Be Safe......
