On the physical products i tested many different products, and I have sucess on physical products. From jewlery to automobile acessories. The photos are important, are descriptive on the product. I have good photos to sell the physical products.

On information products no sucess.

Probably is the advertising, as someone told me: "selling information is another beast, another level is required to sell".

I think is that, I am not good yet for sell information products.


This is good, you have buyers. Way ahead of most.

So, stay in touch, offer other things, and find your best sellers and cut bait on the dogs...sounds good. One vendor I point out is solar-vision on Ebay, who sells strange information products and jewelry too. He seems to have figured it out, his information is (I think) printed on demand.

You might get some ideas, or might not.

But I like the information being a print on demand REAL PRODUCT, SENT in tne mail.

Check him out.

Default Re: Quick and easy product creation.

Hi Gordon,

Thanks for replying.

My business BOOMED on the beggining on the pandemic, and got dropped only in the end of September.

So, with this drop, I focused better:

1. Only run ADS on weekends, is when I have more profit.

2. Only run ADS on SUPER-PRODUCTS (the products that sell better than the others);

3. Focus on the SUPER MARKETS (I sell to different markets, and I notice there are markets much better than others. Maybe because I have the right product to the market. However I get priority on the SUPER MARKETS);

4. Contact more the Clients list with new/other products.

5. Contact more the LEADS list.

And this is working very good for me.

About the information products... I think is what I said: "is needed a better skill to sell information products".

Thanks for sharing that EBAY Vendor, there are really very weird stuff there.

Regards.
