So ive been thinking of ideas to make ebay great again so we all stay and grow with ebay and so we will all want to promote ebay to others as a great place to buy and sell rather than looking for and recommending alternative selling sites.
As the consierge always points out " thanks for your 24 years loyalty " so in view of that constant thanks Im giving ebay some ideas back.
1. Reduce business seller fees .. these are higher then private seller fees and we need to compete with the private sellers who have a warehouse full of stuff to sell similar to what we are selling. If we sell more you earn more revenue.
2. Give business sellers a promoted listing allowance for free each month based on how much income they generate, delivery timescales, feedback, shop tier etc.
3. Listings eligible to send offers. System needs to show if this was generated by promotions and as a result the sale will be subject to a fee or if it was an organic one. If its organic I'd be more likely to offer a better discount if I knew I wasnt going to also incure a promotion fee. This will also increase ebay revenue.
4. Remove ebay fees on packaging and international VAT for business sellers. We are professional sellers and can be trusted to not abuse the system. Why are we paying fees on a tax you collect ?
5. Apply the correct VAT tariff to EU sales. A number of items are subject to lower fees; help us to become more competitive. More sales = more revenue for you.
5. Limit the number of active listings a private seller can have to 100 ( or maximum of say £2000 sales PA for the multi sellers / high value sellers ) at any one time and give them free fees. This will draw in tons of private sellers and all those naughty private " business" sellers will upgrade to a business account and pay you what they should be paying you. Also limit number of accounts someone can have ? This will increase your revenue.
Everyone please add to these ... ebay needs all our help to make Ebay great again.
