eBid got a mention in the latest Picture Postcard Annual, launched last Saturday at the famous annual Norwich Postcard Fair... in the editorial...
Got a link we can look at?
Way cool! :D
Great!
Well Spotted
Well, now that has been brought up again...
The Postcard Annual this year just mentions eBid with one word - once again: eBid - yes, a one-word mention because nothing comes from eBid in way of press releases/notices... come on eBid management do some publicising in the respective collecting journals!
A recent article in our Postcard Magazine on alternative on-line sites totally ignored eBid!
When I contacted the editor to ask why, to quote in part: " ...I don't feel eBid should have something free when others have to pay. But I'm very happy to take a letter from you extolling their virtues. Perhaps the PTA members should also push for eBid to advertise in PPM. I have to say the two occasions I went on there, I wasn't impressed by the stock available for sale...but I haven't looked for a long while now, I must confess. First impressions..."
How sadly true - and that makes it hard to convince people to join in the eBid experience. The other alternative sites mentioned in the article did place adverts in the magazine you see...
Yes, I will write a letter in reply, but it has to be backed up by decent material to create enough interest and a willingness from eBid to participate directly.
Too many people I speak to at Postcard Fairs say the same thing unfortunately, it's a definite no win all round unless the site changes, certainly as far as Postcards are concerned...
I do quite well with postcards here - perhaps eBid would profit from a bit of postcard promotion? I don't just mean that I would sell more but that eBid might well make back the investment in increased fvf
