Welcome

It’s been said that the strongest force in the universe is an idea that’s time has come.

With over 20 years of business experience behind me, I can tell you with certainty that I have never been part of, or even witnessed or observed, a business circumstance where that observation applied more than it does to making money on the Internet.

Selling online is a concept whose time has come…big time.

There are several major factors that create this confluence...this timing. The first is that the Internet has reached critical mass. People all over the world have access to the Internet, with over 80% of U.S. households having Internet access.

Second, online shopping has become an acceptable method for purchasing products and services. More and more people are using the Internet as their preferred method for doing business,
avoiding the challenges associated with conventional retail shopping.

In addition, people are looking at the Internet as a real, viable income opportunity. Just this morning I spoke with a colleague to “survived” the dot-com crash of the late 1990’s. His Internet business will yield him in excess of $1,000,000 this year alone.

Recently someone asked me if I thought the opportunity to make money online had passed. The reality is that the great income opportunities are still available – to the people who take action NOW!

And that’s where Ginsberg Consulting comes in. We provide you with simple, easy to apply education and instruction – in a focused, systematic system designed to generate success.

Selling online is really an idea that’s time has come and being in the RIGHT place at the RIGHT time is something very special indeed.

Knowing No Boundaries,

"One must change one's tactics frequently if one wishes to maintain one's superiority."

Napoleon Bonaparte, general and emperor of France.

Being the first to do something is the most obvious way to set yourself apart from others.

"As long ago as 150 B.C. the Romany playwright Terence said it best: "Do not do what is already done." You must be the first. Or the fastest. Or the most convenient. Or you must deliver more value for the money. In the U.S.:

• McDonald's was the first to popularize the concept of fast food.

• Fedex was the first to offer time-certain delivery.

• Sears & Roebuck was able to offer the convenience of catalog shopping.

• Dell Computers was the first to sell customized computers online.

So it's the uniqueness of your idea that will attract the attention of others."

Frederick Smith, chairman, president and CEO of FedEx

Make An Impression: How To Set Up End Of Auction Emails
by Adam Ginsberg

Winning Buyer Notification emails have been a staple of eBay buying for quite some time. However, eBay has discontinued its Winning Buyer Notification messages and elected to combine the winning bid announcement with End Of Auction email messages. For buyers, this doesn’t mean a huge change, other than that a winner bidder will receive one rather than two automated messages at the conclusion of winning an auction (or purchasing through ‘buy it now’).

As well, sellers have seen little change. The End Of Auction message still provides sellers with opportunities to advertise their eBay stores, display other current auctions, and perform cross-promotions. However, the End Of Auction messages also offer new opportunities to reach out to buyers – and very few sellers take advantage of this.

A Logo’s Worth A Thousand Words

The biggest change in the program is that sellers can now include logs in End Of Auction messages. By default, eBay will include the eBay Store logo if a seller has a logo, an eBay Store, and a PayPal account. However, if you do not have an eBay Store, you can still take advantage of the custom-logo option.

First, click My eBay at the top of the main eBay page. If prompted, type your Username and Password. On the left side of the screen, under My Account, click eBay Preferences. About two-thirds of the way down the page, you will Customization Preferences End Of Auction And Transaction Emails. Click the Change link to the right.

You must store your logo offsite. If you need a domain name or hosting account, you can get one here. You may store the logo in a directory for your own Web site if you have one or your own hosting account.

Your logo must be 90 pixels high x 310 pixels wide. You can use a photo or graphics editing program, such as Adobe Photoshop Elements (www.adobe.com) to design and resize your logo. Once you have created a logo and uploaded it to a Web site, make sure the Include My Logo Located At The Following Web Address (URL) checkbox is selected. In the following field, you should paste the URL of your logo. TO verify that eBay can successfully link to your logo, click the Test Your Logo link.

Communicate With Your Buyers

You can also set up a customized message that eBay will include in all of your End Of Auction messages it automatically sends to winning bidders. You can access these settings on the Customize End Of Auction Email page, just below the Logo options.

If you want to include a custom message, place a check in the Include My Custom Message In This Email check box. eBay will always include the basic information a seller needs, such as the item name, your payment instructions, and a Pay Now button. eBay can also include a default thank-you message addressed to your buyer that lists the item name and item name.

You can edit the default message to write a more personalized greeting or to direct buyers to your other auctions. You can write a message up to 2,000 characters in length. Items in braces ({ }) are words, phrases, numbers, or symbols that eBay will automatically insert in your message. For instance, eBay will replace {TITLE} with the title of your auction. To add such fields, click the AutoText drop-down menu and select Buyer User ID, Item Number, Item Title, Seller Email Address, Seller User ID, or Favorites List.

Finally, to receive copies of all End Of Auction messages, click the Send Me A Copy Of The Customer Email When It’s Sent To A Winning Buyer checkbox. To finish customizing your End Of Auction messages, click the Save button. Now your winner bidders will see your logo and a customized message, improving buyer-to-seller communication and increasing the likelihood of future sales.

Adam's Weekly Wealth Building Recommendation

Just the other day I was searching a very popular website for e-books. I wasn't looking for anything specific, just something that might catch my attention.

Immediately I noticed that the #1 selling e-book on this site was one I had never heard of. I ended up clicking on the link just to read the sales copy and see what someone could right that would instantly take over the #1 spot. Perhaps it was curiosity (or maybe jealousy *smile*).

I was so compelled after reading the sales copy that I had to order the e-book. I was very suprised by the information - it was excellent...it even covered some topics about eBay (which I thought was a nice bonus).

Please be aware that this site has offended some people. I can't say that I agree with the sales approach - but I the information is worth a read. Whenever I read an e-book on a subject where I learn something valuable, I find it important to share that with my students.

If you are easily offended and put off, you don't want to click on this link. If you are sensitive and get your feelings hurt easily, then you don't want to click on this link. And, if you think you know everything about making money you should definitely avoid this link like the plague.

However, if you're up for a good read and want to add to your monthly income, this link is for you.

Best of success...See you Next Week!
