On Kashyap's behalf:


Hi,

I am Kashyap Vadapalli, Director – Marketing & Business Development. I invite you to join me for an Open House discussion on eBay Marketing initiatives.

At eBay, the key task for my team is to ensure that we showcase the Lots of Safe, Easy, Deals available on eBay to our buyers. The objective being to drive visitors, convert visitors into buyers and ensure that an ever increasing part of a buyers overall spending is on eBay. Some of the key initiatives that we have made in this direction are:

High impact promotions like Diwali Bonus, Raining Deals to ensure that we are at top of mind with the consumers during key spending seasons.

Special events for Top Buyers in Mumbai & Delhi to strengthen their relation with eBay

Exciting discount coupons to visitors to entice them to try eBay

Launch of Global EasyBuy to give our buyers access to a large pool of international items delivered conveniently at their doorstep

We have also planned a very exciting nationwide campaign to increase the awareness about eBay and generate trial. We expect the campaign to go live in 1st week of December. I will like to share a sneak peak of the campaign with you. In addition to the above I will be also available to discuss your suggestions on eBay Marketing.

Please join me on Wednesday, Dec 2nd from 5 PM - 6 PM, on this thread to know more about the latest eBay marketing campaign, and a open discussion on eBay Marketing.

Looking forward to meeting you here!

Thanks and Regards,
Kashyap Vadapalli
Director – Marketing & Business Development

Sir,
My 2 cents.
1.Promote hobbies and collectibles.
2.Target India is okay.But target world holds the real promise.
My sales are good.
No issues on this count.
In fact,I can increase and reduce my sales at will.
Ebay taught me many things.
Thanx,
Truly,
Amitava

Hi umeshmote,

I am sorry that your gift has not reached you yet. Sometimes gifts do not reach on time if the address is not serviceable by Blue Dart. In such cases, we try and dispatch it with alternate courier company. However, this causes delays in final delivery.

You should hear from our Customer Support team on the status of your delivery soon.

Regards,
Kashyap

Hi shashwatg,

Let me start with saying that I am proud of our CS team. They deal with questions about millions of transaction that happen on eBay and most of the them are answered correctly. The ones where we can do a better job are the ones where the question is complex or is asked in a manner that makes it difficult to decipher. It is difficult to give an easy answer to an complex question. Having said the above, we are continuously investing in more training for our Customer Support team and working towards improving member satisfaction.

A marketplace exists for and because of both sellers and buyers. Buyers can do nothing with empty shelves and Sellers have no use for empty streets. That said in this day of choice - buyers take the leap of faith in interacting on the marketplace and sellers keep the faith by providing the appropriate goods/service.

Regards,
Kashyap
