Unlocking Hidden eBay Profits
By: Howard Young (www.fizziebooks.com)
Date: Sept 2004
The past few months Gmail was a very popular commodity on eBay. The rush to get your.name@gmail.com was setting off a bidding frenzy pushing invitations as high as $50 USD. I even placed several bids and finally won a Gmail invitation for $4.35 only to find out that the invitation had expired.
The seller refunded my money and eventually Google invited me since I had set up a Blog (www.clkngo.net) with them six months earlier. What amazes me is that (as of 9/11/04) you can still bid on Gmail invitations. The following exhibit is an eBay search for gmail:
Exhibit I:
2 Gmail invites + 500MB hosting on SiteKreator.com Price $1.00
Gmail 1gb email account Price $1.34
2 Gmail invites + 500MB hosting on SiteKreator.com Price $1.00
FREE 4 GMAIL invites and $10 Amazon.com giftcard info Price $0.99

By the way, if you want a Gmail invitation, just email me at fizziebooks@gmail.com and I’ll invite you. I have five invitations remaining so first come first served.
The Silent Sales Machine Hiding on Ebay
All this eBay frenzy with selling Gmail invitations reminded me of the Silent Sales Machine Hiding on eBay, an ebook by Jim Cockrum. The Silent Sales Machine is a step-by-step process showing you unique methods to generate additional sales.
When you sell products on eBay, eBay is sending pre-qualified buyers to your sales page. That is, you are going to get buyers that are interested in buying your product. The Silent Sales Machine shows you how to get the interested buyers, indirectly and legitimately, to your web site.
To contrast this with pay-per-click search engine programs, instead of placing search engine ads, you are placing ads on eBay. Depending on the listing price of your product, the listing fee will average less per click than what you will pay a search engine company.
Plus, on the upside, someone may actually bid on and by your product to cover advertising costs. The Silent Sales Machine actually hints that it is not necessary to profit from the eBay sale since the goal is to attract buyers to your web site for follow-on sales.
Cockrum continues to revise the Silent Sales Machine so the process is up-to-date. When I purchashed the eBook several months ago, the manuscript was about 50 pages. The August 2004 revision added over one hundred pages of new and expanded material.
The Silent Sales machine is a highly recommended read especially if you are currently using a pay-per-click process to send traffic to your site. Try using eBay instead of search engines and you may improve qualified traffic to your sit.
