That assumes a need

I agree with Dien. This week I sold about $1800 worth of my old info products on eBay to the same guy in three auctions within hours of listing the stuff! He used the Buy It Now! feature.

While my photos and words were great, the buyer told me he couldn't believe his luck in finding "just what he'd been looking for" on his screen and couldn't resist buying them.

So, I got really lucky by having the one buyer with the need find my offers (regardless of sales pitch).

I have another set of products up for bid, not in this guy's interest area (unfortunately!) - we'll see if words work:-)

So, all of the above is great info, but my opinion is both sides must be worked - great sales materials matched at least to the vicinity of willing buyers.

Just my centavos.
