Selling on the Internet

Selling on the Internet

Do you want to earn some extra money, or just get rid of some of your "stuff?" You can do both by selling on the Internet. This hands-on workshop covers choosing suitable items, writing descriptions, creating and uploading digital images, communicating with bidders, getting paid, and filling orders. The course will also touch on advanced selling topics such as using auction posting software, auction management software, and Internet postage. Workshop participants need a working e-mail account and a credit card (VISA or MasterCard), and should be familiar with using a Web browser to access the Internet. To get the full benefits of the course, participants should visit http://www.utm.edu/~johnston/auction.htm before the workshop and register for online auction selling tools (at no cost). Participants should bring some items (or photos of items) that they wish to sell to the workshop. The instructor is an eBay seller with a feedback rating of over 140.
