auction management software

aumakerRookie

I am increasing the number of eBay listings and need help keeping up managing my listings, PapPal & eBay fees, final sales and (What ever I haven't thought about yet). I have seen that some of this software links to Quickbooks Pro. I really could use some help before my fingers drop off from using the Excel spreadsheet I designed.

I used to use Shooting Star and I really liked it. It was a one time fee to use the software but they said due to ebay changes they were going to start charging a subscription rate and I stopped using it.

It really is a great program but I'm not a large volume seller so I didn't think it was cost effective for me.

Now I use a simple spreadsheet and it works fine. If you know how to make your own then great, if not htere are plenty of sellers who offer them all set up for about $10-20.

I'm looking forward to having some of these features offered here on Auctiva

I used an excel spreadsheet. The only think I manually type into it is the cost of the item. Everything else is a formual or copy & pasted into it.

I copy my newly added items daily all in one click and paste and presto they are done! Pretty much the same with ebay id's and email addys.

Shooting Star does it all for you. It was only $60 but they are raising it to $120 I think. You should check it out it really is a great program and I really liked it

I also tried the ebay accounting thing that comes free with stores I think. I liked it but you need to buy Quickbooks or one of those progrmas to make it work.

I used a free trial and liked it but again couldn't justify the cost of the program.

If you lay it out the same as it's on ebay - just do a copy and paste!
I do that with the whole group of new ads daily. All in one scoop!

I must be a little slow...but lay it out as it is on eBay...Where on eBay are you talking about. I can make the Excel worksheet, but I don't know from where I am inporting the data.

BTPS must be talking about in My eBay... I guess if you can set up the columns in My eBay and a spreadsheet in the same order then you can copy & paste from eBay to the spreadsheet..

That's a good idea!

So few people ask these questions, assuming that agreeing to a demo means they're interested in the product, which isn't always the case.

So, without going into too much detail, look at how you're qualifying your prospects. If you're confident this is working, focus on your demo agenda. Work with the prospect to create the agenda and specify your goals as well as soliciting theirs. One of your agenda items should state "procurement process." Make it clear to the prospect that you're there to get business; it's better if they flag they're not ready to buy before you commit time and resources.
