The Silent Sales Machine teaches Internet marketers how to use eBay to promote their products as well as how to get more attention and sales from the huge auction site.
Detailed Overview
One of the bestselling books on the topic of eBay has been the Silent Sales Machine Hiding on eBay. The book has ranked on the top sellers list of Clickbank and is a favorite that many affiliates still promote to this day. Jim Cockrum is an experienced eBay marketer that believes eBay system is set up so that it helps eBay win first and sellers win second.
His stance on this is that you have to minimize your auction fees and set up a machine that makes it profitable for you to sell on eBay while growing your business. Jim encourages people to make sure there are multiple secondary offers for your products and to get these people into your lead system so you can contact them later.
Both of these tips will maximize your earnings from each auction and also give you the potential to turn prospects and customers into lifetime customers. They don’t necessarily need to be your eBay customers either. You can add them to your own individual marketing list and even contact them offline.
The book is a great guide for both beginners and experienced eBay sellers. This is because it doesn’t follow the conventional strategies like most eBay books do. It even talks about how to use eBay as a marketing tool if you are an affiliate marketer promoting a product or a service. Everything is laid out in a step by step guide that is easy to follow.
Now if you are just confused on what to sell, there is a part of the book that teaches you how to find products you can sell for a profit. You’ll get some great resources and some research steps to follow to see if a product is worth selling. There are even tips on using keywords, writing effective titles, and how to set up your auction for maximum profits.
Updated January 2010: As of January 2010 this book is now in its 6th major update and is no longer just about eBay. Silent Sales Machine now also includes how to make money using CraigsList, YouTube, email list management, and other online marketing methods that work.
Reputation
The Silent Sales Machine has received good reviews from other eBay experts in the industry as well as from customers that have purchased the book. Jim runs a newsletter that goes out to over 100,000 subscribers and delivers some of the most amazing content on eBay. I think the book is a great investment no matter what your level of experience is and I recommend you check this one out if you’re looking at eBay to sell your products and promote your business.
