eBay Trading Assistant - Marketing Yourself

How to promote yourself as a Trading Assistant

There are two ways to promote yourself as a Trading Assistant.

- Put a link to your trading assistant directory listing into your auctions.
- Use our collateral material, print posters and distribute them to promote your service.

To put a link in your listings follow these instructions:

Sign up to join the Trading Assistant directory (if you haven't already).
View your listing in the directory to determine your Trading Assistant number. This is the number you see at the end of the web address when you view your trading assistant listing. For example if your listing is:

http://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ShowMemberToMemberDetails&member=752302

Then the number you would write down would be "752302".
Add the following HTML code to your listings. You'll have to replace the "XXXXX" portion of the code with the number you just wrote down.

<center>
<a href="http://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ShowMemberToMemberDetails&member=XXXXX">
<b>I am a Trading Assistant - I can sell items for you!</b>

This will add the text "I am a Trading Assistant - I can sell for you!" to your listings along with this icon:
