Hi
I got my shop all up and running. I made my first sale in the week and received praise feedback, even more gratifying!
Naturally I want plenty more. I need to attract more people, but will I do sales if people don't trust me?
I think the one major flaw which EBID has to overcome is the trust aspect. Can I prise away buyers from the other well known site to buy here. Maybe, though the other sites guarentee is a major factor for buyers. So basically goes down to trust.
Ok down to Feedback. I have my 1 EBID praise and other major praise imported from the other site. In time when I reached some sales on EBID. I would like to delete the other sites imported feedback and trade solely on my EBID reputation.
However, I feel it's a bit Chicken and egg here at the moment. Ok people can see my imported feedback, but actual seeing is believing!
My question is what lengths am I allowed to go to get people to actually see my feedback rating on the other site for themselves? I really want to put that trust across to say look at these transactions I done, but now I am here.
Can I put a hyperlink here to my old account on the other site. I don't trade on the other site now, purely out of principles. Though unfortunately people will look here then at the other site and probably complete the purchase sadly there.
Any advice be welcome.
