Developing The Client Base
Return all calls – you never know who’s on the other end of the line
It doesn’t matter what the item is or what the client’s questions are, you should return every call in a timely manner with a professional demeanor. One client with an apparently low-priced item could just be testing your services and could have numerous other items, in addition to friends with lots of items. Simply returning a phone call and providing a quick overview of your services could lead to future referrals.

You can also increase your client base by participating in trade shows and displaying your selling expertise and communicating to potential buyers that you also offer Trading Assistant service on eBay.in

Provide an easy-to-review summary for each client
Make it easy for clients to understand all the accounting behind the check they receive. A clear and concise statement that covers how many items were listed, how many were sold, the amount they sold for, the TA expenses, and the net amount due the client will make repeat business and referrals much more likely. One of the best ways to do this is to build an Excel spreadsheet with all the right headings and fill in the blanks for each client. Then print the spreadsheet for each client and send it with their check.

Email clients a live link to their auctions Email clients with a link to their auction(s) once they have completed the listings – send clients an email that links right to their live auctions to get them excited about watching the auctions, and hopefully more likely to bring more product to you to sell for them. You can send the link as a link to a single item page or multiple item pages, depending on how many items you listed for the client. As an alternative, if you use the coding system above, you can send a link that is a seller search (or seller store search) for items with that code.

Rajesh

Dear dlfmall

There are certain minimum requirements before a seller can become a Trading Assistant. Request you to go through my post no. 11 to know more about the criteria for becoming TA.

Regarding your question on order of TA for now the directory is sorted such that it rewards sellers with more experience and transaction volume on eBay - higher-feedback Trading Assistants show up first in the directory. Later we hope to add other sorts so that clients can find assistants that are right for them.
Regards,
Rajesh

If a New Comer advertises then the Baazee TA would take the advantage.

So whats the FUN?
