What are the most successful marketing techniques for your website?
 

The PMI Program has given me great insight into the world of e commerce from running both as standalone website and an ebay store. Each is very different and requires some unique training and knowledge. The coaches at PMI are extremely knowledgeable and are quick to respond to any request no matter how small it seems to you. They truly are just a phone call away. They are experts in ebay, the psychology behind ebay and how to maximize auction dollars in listing formats.

They are also great business entrepreneurs who understand what it takes to make money. My favorite quote from a coach was that “you don’t make money when you sell a product; you make it when you buy a product”. This was profound to me and showed that in a competitive environment like ebay buying at the lowest cost is paramount. Their software was great in helping to decide what to sell and pricing and the listing of potential product sources was a tremendous help in getting started with some product.

I particularly liked the training being given via the web and that it was recorded for you to view at your leisure which made it much more convenient as I was working a full time job while trying to get this business started. There is truly great potential in this program to run the business as your only source of income. I chose to run it as a supplemental income stream and continue to work also, I am now rethinking that option.

PMI’s lessons were the biggest help, they taught me about niche sourcing, choosing a product to sell and getting feedback on eBay.

Hand-holding from PMI coaching, when possibilities seemed endless, helped me keep focus. Their communication was great and I loved them teaching me their ideas, which helped me understand whether to do eBay store or stand alone store – I chose to do both.

The statistics of the Ebay store are as follows – I have been running the store for only 5 months part time approx 10-20 hours per week and the total sales are $15,000 with the last three months averaging $3,115 per month. Imagine what I could do if I focused 10% of my time.

Thanks for all your help –it’s been an invaluable experience
