Scale your eBay business to 2.0 THIS WAY!
There are many ways for you to scale your eBay business, but I’ve found the most effective way to scale is something that I like to call eBay 2.0.
What is eBay 2.0?
eBay 2.0 is a term I use to describe the next level of growth and success with your eBay business. It’s scaling your business by hiring an eCommerce virtual assistant (VA) to share the workload and free up a lot of time to focus on growing your business.
Many Entrepreneurs use a VA for nearly everything in their online and also offline businesses, for case of eBay, a virtual assistant can handle workload from listing new products and managing inventory, to creating custom listings, managing customer service and more!
There are so many things that you can have your VA do for you in your business, so let’s take a look at some of the things they can do for you!
What is E Commerce Virtual Assistant?
eCommerce Virtual Assistants (VA) can help operate your business on a day-to-day basis. They have the skills and experience needed to provide seller support services for popular online marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Jet, Etsy, and more.
You can hire an Amazon Seller VA, eBay Seller VA, and many other types of eCommerce VAs to perform a number of tasks such as product sourcing, product listing, inventory management, order fulfillment, customer service, feedback and product review monitoring, and a whole lot more.
Hire an Amazon virtual assistant, eBay virtual assistant or general eCommerce virtual assistant to help you manage your online business today. They can take the essential but repetitive business tasks off your shoulders so you can finally have the time to focus on growing and scaling your business.
eCommerce Virtual Assistant Skillset
Here are some of the most common tasks that you can assign to eBay seller virtual assistants:
Order and Inventory Management
Let a virtual assistant do eBay listings management for you to ensure that your store is always sufficiently stocked. An eBay seller VA can also manage order cancellations, inventory details, and act as a liaison between you and your supplier.
Customer Service
Customer satisfaction is vital in every business. You need to make sure that tracking orders, replacements and refunds are in order. You can hire an eBay virtual assistant to provide chat, phone, text, or email support to your customers to ensure top-notch customer experience.
Product Sourcing
Finding the right products to sell is just as important as selling them. However, it can be a very time-consuming process. Have your eBay seller VA comb through your product options whether you’re doing dropshipping, private label or white label, wholesale or online arbitrage.
Documentation and Reporting
Need a hand in preparing monthly reports or filing important documents? You can let that task be handled by an eBay seller VA too.
Listing Optimization
An eBay seller can help you make your eBay listings more discoverable and enticing by adding keywords and improving your product descriptions. You can also task your VA with editing your product photos to make them more appealing to buyers.
Marketing and Promotion
Every business needs to be promoted in order to reach more customers. You can hire a virtual assistant who is proficient in marketing to help you with this. A VA can help you write blog articles for your website so your customers can learn more about your products.
You can also hire a VA to manage your social media marketing and reach out to influencers who can help endorse your products. A virtual assistant can also help you with email marketing and even paid ads on Facebook, Instagram, Google, and other platforms.
Product and Market Research
To grow your eBay store, you need to do some research about new products and market competition. An eBay seller VA can also help you with that. They can find more products for you to sell or research your competitors to ensure that your items are well priced.
How do I hire an eBay Seller Virtual Assistant?
When hiring an eBay virtual assistant, it’s important to partner with a reliable virtual staffing company. For instance, at Programian Ecom, we provide eBay training to all our eCommerce virtual assistants before they are eligible for client endorsement. This is to make sure that they’ve got the necessary training to get started immediately.
