New bonanza member wants to make sure he is doing everything correctly
Upvote this question 0 Downvote this question

Hello everyone. I am rather new to Bonanza after leaving another ‘e’ site. I currently have 30 items listed for sale and another 15 will be coming soon, so I wanted to make sure that my key words, descriptions, pictures, etc were good in my current listings. I haven’t made a sale yet, but based on what I have read, the more items I have for sale, the more likely they will be found and sold? I have signed up for Google Shopping so I ‘should’ be getting traffic through that. I do have one question regarding the advertising programs. If I wanted to use more than one method of advertising, like The Find, would the 6% max fee cover BOTH of them or is it a 6% fee for EACH of them?

I look forward to becoming a successful Bonanza seller here since I buy stuff to sell online to help pay for college. Any further tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

The maximum fee percentage would be the one signed up for…total…..so for 6% you can opt for google and the find….and most of the time it is usually less…

It will not be 6% for each

Realize that your sales will come from google/bing/etc searches and this will take time for you to build a presence on the internet…so don’t get discouraged, things can be slow at first….

If you have repeat customers from the other place…be sure to let them know you are ‘moving’…it will be the best way to build your presence elsewhere

Welcome to Bonanza and Good Luck

Thank you for the info on the advertising. I’ll opt into the find then. I’m not nessesarily discouraged about the sales, I know that this will take time to grow into a sucessful booth. Unfortunately I can’t say I have that many repeat customers. I think my grand total may have been three or four.
