FRIDAY ALERT for March 28, 2008

This week I have a few more Great Fr//ee "gifts" for you.

Seems like that every week ..

Plus a feature Video / Article:

           eBay Classified Ads SECRETS Videos

        with Mike Enos / PlatinumPowerSeller.com

First, let me appologize for some links not working in any
emails I have sent you lately. Something went wrong in the
cloaking tool I was using to shorten the links ( and make
them more pleasing to the eye). The links this tinme my be
longer but I think they all work! Again, I am sorry for any
problems you may have had with the links.
 
The BIG news this week is the change in ebay's policy on
selling Digital delivered products in regular eBay Auctions.

In this isssue of the Friday Alert I have checked with those
"in the know" eBay Power sellers to get their reaction and
any recommendations or solutions they have to offer in dealing
with the policy change and making it work for Online Marketers
who have been selling digitally delivered items on eBay.

I hope this information will help anyone concerned about the
policy change and how it affects their online business.

Please be sure to read the entire Friday Alert and use
these gifts and opportunities to move yourself forward
in your quest for Internet Success.

=======================================================

1.) New Policy Update: Digital Downloadable Goods
 
=======================================================

http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200803241300132.html


***New Policy Update: Digital Downloadable Goods
in Classified Ads Format Only***
 
"Hello...This is Brian Burke, Director Global Feedback
Policy. Digital goods are often reproduced at little
to no cost to the seller. On eBay, this creates the
potential for Feedback Manipulation (both real and
perceived).

To preserve the integrity of the Feedback system,
effective March 31 all goods that can be digitally
downloaded or transferred electronically must be
listed using the Classified Ads format.

Using the Classified Ads format, sellers receive
a 30-day ad at a fixed price. This solution enables
sellers to continue to market their digital goods
on eBay; however, because Classified Ad listings
are a lead generation tool and do not result in
transactions that go through eBay, Feedback cannot
be exchanged between buyer and seller.

Sellers who wish to continue to offer digital goods
can do so by selecting:

the Everything Else>Information Products category
in the Sell Your Item form and choosing the
Classified Ads format (not auction-style or
fixed price). For more information about the
Classified Ads format, please read Advertising
with Classified Ads."

Sincerely,

Brian Burke
Director, Global Feedback Policy   

*****************************************************

Do you need a solution to save your ebook business on eBay?

Don't let the new eBay policies regarding digital product
sales stop your business. If you send physical products
you will still be able to use standard auctions, the
feedback system, and typical listing fees.

We have step by step videos that provide training on
creating an auto-run data CD that contains digital
product files. (ebooks) The series of videos shows
anyone how to automate the entire process by outsourcing
...duplicate your CD/DVD, package and ship to customers.

 2.) Digital Items Banned On eBay - John Thornhill

=======================================================

Digital Items Banned On eBay

"Please note this is a rushed post as I felt you needed
to know of this new eBay policy ASAP. Therefore I will
be providing more information as the week goes on…

I woke up this morning to find a ton of emails in my
inbox plus my members only forum regarding this new policy.

http://www2.ebay.com/aw/core/200803.shtml#2008-03-24125416

There is also a ton of activity on eBay’s discussion boards.

http://forums.ebay.com/db2/thread.jspa?threadID=1000671814&start=0

So as of 31st March 2008 anyone selling digital items
will be in violation of eBay’s policies.

Now this does not only affect eBook sellers.

This affects anyone selling items delivered digitally.

This can include:

- eBooks
- Audio/mp3
- Digital Videos
- Websites
- Domain Names
- Graphic Design Services
- Photo Services
- And any other service delivered electronically.

Now you may have noticed I have never ever bad mouthed
eBay and I have no intentions of starting now.

There is just no point, I would much rather look for
the positives that can be taken from this new policy.

And let me tell you the positives actually outweigh
the negatives.

There is only one negative issue I can find so far
and that is your eBook business can no longer be
automated. You will need to make your items physical.

And the best way to do this is to burn your eBooks
to CD Rom and send it via regular mail. This is not
as hard as it sounds once you set up a system to
burn and ship CD’s.

This task can even be outsourced if you wish.

John… Your joking. I can’t do that…

Oh yes you can, and let me tell you it’s not as bad
as it sounds. Let me explain.

By selling physical items you are no longer restricted
by eBay’s digital item policy.

For starters you are no longer restricted to the
‘buy now’ option. This means you can list auctions.

You also may be able to list in other categories other
than Everything Else > Information Products (I am
waiting for a reply from eBay and will confirm this soon)

The up-sell opportunities are truly massive. Remember,
you are mailing a physical item to your customers so
you have a lot more chance of your further ‘offers’
being viewed. And this is what selling eBooks on eBay
is all about.

UK users can list on ebay.co.uk again, no more having
to list on ebay.com to avoid the digital item policy.

The chance of selling multiple items will increase
dramatically. By offering extra items for no extra
shipping means you will sell more. All you have to
do is add all purchases to the same CD rom.

Higher perceived value. Because your customer is
getting something in the mail you can put your prices up.

Just look at the price of any home study course delivered
via regular mail.

These are just ideas off the top of my head. I will
have more but I felt I needed to get this post ‘out there’
before doom and gloom sets in.

Remember! People who want to succeed will not look at
the negatives, they will look for the positives and at
the moment I feel the positives far outweigh the negatives.

This is a massive policy change for you and I but we
can make this work in our favor.

I expect to make more posts regarding this over the
course of the week as I am waiting for a response to
a few questions I put to eBay PowerSeller support."

              eBay Classified Ads SECRETS Videos

            with Mike Enos / PlatinumPowerSeller.com
============================================================

Hey did you hear that eBay BANNED digital products from
regular auctions?   

Unless you’ve been without internet access this week,
I’m sure you have!

And guess what???

..The Sky is NOT falling!

BTW… If you want to see how easy it is to convert your
digital product into a CD product then look here:

http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=OrFjm&m=1a9zpNSUwg9AO5&b=mFV_DNS_r_6jMl38ezZAfQ

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Everyone is suddenly talking about classified ads. 

I’ve been using them for 2 years and just finished a
killer video that you are invited to watch.

Visit here:

http://www.platinumpowerseller.com/link/link.php?P=3335.3

enter your info and you’ll be able to watch the video.

(Actually, there are 5 videos there)

I still think that eBay is the EASIEST way to start
a profitable online business, but NOT for the same
reasons that used to be true.

Let’s first cover the “old way”, and then the “new way”
of making money on eBay.


Old: The Physical eBay Product Business Method

It’s no secret that selling physical product on eBay
is not as easy as it was in the past. 

Not only that, but the typical ‘eBay business’ of
sourcing inventory / listing /selling / packing /
shipping / repeat… is simply not appealing or possible
for many people for so many reasons.

Whether it’s because you:

Don’t have money to buy stock.
Don’t have storage for the inventory.
Can’t find profitable items to sell.
Physically are unable to handle the packing & shipping.
Hate customer service.
Don’t have consistent time each and every day for the
business. …etc
Selling physical product on eBay just might not be your
cup of tea.

..That’s quite understandable.

eBay’s BIGGEST advantage has always been they deliver
HIGHLY targeted traffic. Traffic is lifeblood of any
online business. Having eBay deliver a gazillion page
views a day is very valuable (and why they collect
those never ending fees).

Now back in the good old days when there was not so
much selling competition, it was sooooo… easy to make
money. You put nearly anything online, eBay sent you
traffic, and you sold it. Sweet!

But that’s not the case now.

The big boys smelled money. LOT’S of Money. Mom & Pop’s
started going face to face with deep pocketed corporations.

More Competition = less profits (at least for the Mom & Pops)

eBay realizes that they:

Have less fraud with BIG sellers.
Have less buyer complaints with BIG sellers.
Require less resources to support a BIG seller.
Make more money from BIG sellers.
So, isn’t the solution obvious?

If you get rid of all the small eBay sellers, and give
the business to the BIG Professional sellers, everyone wins!

The Buyers enjoy a more professional purchasing experience,
so they’ll be back.

eBay reduces it’s support costs for fraud, buyer complaints,
seller tech issues, etc… This means more profits for shareholders!
 
The BIG sellers get bigger!

Great, everyone wins!

Oops…We forgot about the small Mom & Pops who started eBay
and fueled it’s growth with their passion and hard work.

Sorry, guess you can’t please everyone 

If you’re a small eBay seller, you REALLY need to start
thinking about “expanding your eBay horizons”!

New: Classified Ads,  A New Alternative

In fact this hub-bub about not being able to sell digital
products in auction ads is a SWEET opportunity for you to
learn about the POWER of eBay Classified Ads.

I’ve been quietly researching, experimenting, and generating
traffic (and $$$) with classified ads for over 2 years now.
(Yes, they HAVE been around for that long!)

I knew when I first heard about them that they were going
to be HUGE, and would have great potential.

My whole focus in learning the “ins and outs” of eBay
Classified Ads was to design a business model for the person who:

Only has a few hours each week to spend on their business.
Has to steal time late at night or at unpredictable hours.
Wants a residual income (compared to the ‘list-> sell->
ship-> repeat’ classic eBay business model)
 
Is not very technically oriented and doesn’t like learning
technical stuff.

Want’s a process that is easy to learn, easy to implement,
and easy to scale.

Just doesn’t fit in with the selling/shipping physical
product on eBay model.

Does that sound like you?

If so, then you can understand why I created Auction
Traffic SECRETS.

This course is taking the world by STORM! We launched
it and it SOLD OUT back in February (in just 4 days),
but no worries.

We’re making it BIGGER & BETTER and getting ready to
release it again.

Let me explain…

Not only will you get 4 hours of HD Video explaining
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW to setup auto-pilot profit
machines using eBay classified ads, but we’re also adding
the following:

Weekly webinar based training- We’ll be meeting together
online to answer your questions and demonstrate techniques.
You’ll watch my computer screen as I personally demonstrate
the techniques you’ll use.

Private members only forum access. Submit your questions,
share your success stories,  and meet other Auction Traffic
SECRETS  members.

We’ll also be posting additional videos and more partner
companies that will pay you for your classified ad traffic.


So check out the Auction Traffic SECRETS videos by logging in.

You’ll see examples of how people are getting huge traffic
using these classified ads.

3.) eBay Policy Changes Not All Doom And Gloom - John T.

============================================================

Here's another look at this situation from eBay Power Seller
John Thornhill ...

"eBay Policy Changes Not All Doom And Gloom

I want to calm the fears that some people think
you can’t sell your digital items via other mediums
such as CD Rom.

This segment of eBay radio from Today clarifies
the CD issue.

http://wsradio.edgeboss.net/download/wsradio/ebay/032508/segment3032508.mp3

The information you need is just over nineteen
minutes into the show. The call came from a graphic
designer who was worried about her business.

So now it’s official.

You can sell your digital items in physical form.

Now you may think this is not an option. Well let
me tell you if you do this right you can make this
work in your favor.

First of all I know the automation side of things
disappear, I know you can use fulfillment services
but for me personally I wouldn’t do it.

I need to be in full control of my eBay business.

If you’re a small time seller you can do this yourself
and if your a big seller you can employ someone to do
this task for you and that is my plan.

But let’s forget that side of things for now and think
about what we can do to make this work in our favor.

I want you to think about the big product launches
over the last few years.

You know, Butterfly Marketing, Traffic Secrets,
Product Launch Formula, The 7 Figure Code, and many
many more.

What do they all have in common?

They are all physical products.

Now I’m not saying you have to stop selling digital items.
I mean most of my income comes from ClickBank, but there
is going to be a massive gap in the market on eBay come
next week and the demand for physical products will be huge.

You may not know this but I actually got started on eBay
selling information CD’s. I used to make good money but
I knew nothing about viral marketing and backend strategies.

That was back in 2003 and how times have changed.
If I put into practice back then what I know now I
think I would be a multi millionaire.

But as I discovered automation and became lazy I stopped
selling physical products. Well this new policy change
could just be the wake up call I needed.

I plan to show you over the coming days how to make
this policy change work in your favor.

I am in the process of writing a short report and I
will make this available very soon. It will definitely
be ready before the 31st when the policy change comes
into effect.

I, (John Thornhill) will show you:

- How you can charge more than your competition and
still make more sales.
 
- The biggest mistake you can make when selling
physical items.

- How this will provide a massive opportunity to
sell other products.
 
- What you definitely don’t want to be doing on eBay.
 
- How you will generally see an increase in sales.
 
- How you can still make immediate upsells after a sale.
 
- How you can turn a $1.00 eBook into a $10.00 product.
 
- How eBay’s policy change could be the best thing
that has happened if you do things right."

4.) Selling Digital Products on eBay - Salehoo
============================================================

Here is another Blog post .. from eBay Power Seller SaleHoo


"eBay has done it again.

Yesterday they announced a massive change to digital
download listings that will completely overhaul the
way those of us selling eBooks do business.

From March 31, eBooks and other digital download
products can no longer be listed in auction format.

Instead, they must be listed as a Classified ad.

Okay, fine, you might say. Except for when we tell you
that selling via Classified ads means no feedback.

Because Classified transactions take place outside of
eBay, the feedback option is nullified. And this is
one big ‘uh-oh’ for any seller trying to build a good
reputation or achieve powerseller status. 

For many of you, this announcement is going to come
as a nasty shock.

But before you let the doom and gloom sink in, remember
that survival in business means adaptation. Also from
what I’ve seen over the years, every so called ‘shock’
in eBay, Google or any other online income source
usually helps some people while hurting others.

You can use this situation to your advantage as many
eBay sellers will not know what to do and will give
up following this latest announcement.

Luckily for you, as a member of Sky High Auctions you’re
up to date on what to do.

My first suggestion is that you list your eBooks as
classified ads. You won’t be able to earn feedback points,
but you’ll still get the most important thing from your
eBook sales… qualified leads!

Now as far as feedback is concerned, you can still sell
your eBooks (or other digital items) on CD or DVD, if
you list them on eBay as a physical product.

While this does mean that you can’t automate this part
of your business entirely, the upsides more than make
up for it.

For starters, up-sell opportunities are now going to
be tripled. Yes, tripled. Physical items are taken
way more seriously by customers, so there’s going to
be more chance of your other offers being viewed and
actioned. And don’t let’s forget that this is actually
the most important part of selling digital items anyway!

I suggest that you sell your physical product cd’s for
$7 + shipping and handling (which should be pretty cheap).
That equate to a similar profit after costs are taken
into account, as to selling ebooks. And you should get
quite a few leads out of this.

You can still sell some of your physical products at
higher prices (e.g. a 5 cd pack on self hypnosis for
$30+ etc), but in general, as taught in the Sky High
Auctions lessons, you’ll want to sell this kind of
package on the backend, after selling someone a lower
priced product. These leads are invaluable.

For those of you doing big digital product business and
worried about the time required to burn and ship CDs,
you can outsource this to Disk.com or you can check out
a solution offered by our friend Dave: he teaches you
how to create an auto-run CD and get someone to burn and
drop ship them for you! Nice one Dave – we like anything
that gets other people to do our work for us.

You can find Dave’s awesome Quick & Easy Info Product
Creation Guide right here

There’s no doubt about it: this is a pretty big shake up
for all of us digital product sellers. But we’re very
excited about the solutions we’ve put in place and can
only wait with baited breath to see how the results pan
out in our bottom line over the coming weeks."

Be Prepared...Your Competition Will Be Scratching
Their Heads Wondering How You Make So Much More
Money Than They Do, Even Though You Only Work
Half As Much!

Lunatic Programmer Offers A 53 Page Report,
76 Minutes Of Video, And 7 Scripts With Full
Source Code For Just A Nickel!

With just a few short and entertaining PHP web
scripting video tutorials, "Web Sites on Crack"
will show you how to do all this in your sleep...
 
Video 1:

*  Experience a flood of incoming visitors by
syndicating your site's content to others with
one line of code... WITHOUT JavaScript or RSS
feeds! (7 minutes, 55 seconds)

Video 2:

* Create new sites in just a few minutes with
self-assembling article directories. Set these
simple scripts up and fill up a folder 50, 100,
or 500 private-label or ghostwritten articles.

A table of contents will appear and every page
will be automatically formatted without you
having to do anything! (17 minutes, 31 seconds)

Video 3:

* Test alternate streams of income for your site
by pitting Yahoo! ads against Google ads for a day,
then change back with one press of a key! Make
sitewide search-and-replaces on your server,
even if your site has 500 billion pages, without
touching a single file. (12 minutes, 28 seconds)

Video 4:

* Quickly monetize any site. Space ads in between
paragraphs for articles, forum pages, blog posts,
in 5 minutes, again, even if your site has tons
and tons of pages, if your site is in HTML or PHP!
(8 minutes, 14 seconds)

Video 5:

* Make your site sticky by allowing modern web
users to subscribe (and be notified of) updates
with one click... create an RSS feed out of any
static site. (17 minutes, 10 seconds)

Video 6:

* Speed up your site by blocking scrapers, anonymous
proxies that spam, and create a web cache to speed
up slow pages. (8 minutes, 47 seconds)

Video 7:

* Augment any article site or forum with a Clickbank
affiliate program in just a few simple steps and get
a major traffic boost! (4 minutes, 4 seconds)

All this is done using the powerful but unlikely
combo of PHP, HTACCESS wrappers, and Apache output
buffering to jump light years ahead in your content
site's niche.
