Appreciate any feedback. Running into many issues trying to increase sales for more than one item. I am a very low margin business and now that Ebay charges .30 per transaction it has increased my need to drive more than a single sale.
1. Ebay Store - Find that this doesn't get much traffic, mainly because 99% of all users utilize a phone and the rendering of the Ebay store on the phone is not user friendly like it is on laptop. For example, cannot search through the categories I have setup in my store, etc.. REALLY disapointed in the Ebay Store benefits to drive sales. The back end piece is really solid, but envisioned much more traffic would be driven to the Ebay Store.
2. One of the things I was doing before the new fee structure was reaching out to customers that purchased a single item, then offering them a discount on adding to their order. Unfortunately again, the new .30 per transaction is also applied to that one as well even though it is the same customer ordering 2 items on the same day. The only solution from Ebay was to sell the customers to cancel their order and order multiple. This seems like WAY too much work and confusion to handle through messaging.
3. I have recently added Add ANY (4) items to Cart for $XX Each, to the listing Title, but still seem to get more single items or multiple of the same item. Doesn't seem to resonate with customers that they can add different items to cart, so that has been a bit of a bust as well.
Is there any way to add a question to buyers at checkout? Something like, you are purchasing a single item at $2.50, if you add any other items to your cart you can receive discounts of 10% on 2, 25% on 2 and 30% on any 4 simply by adding more items to your cart from this seller, or at a minimum add a option to allow the customers to add items to an existing order. I can't beleive that we cannot do that.
Anyway, appreciate any feedback or tips others have used to do anything like this.
