The call came from a  graphic designer who was worried about her business.\u00a0So now it&#8217;s official. You  can sell your digital items in physical form.<\/p>\n<p>Now you may think this is not an option. Well let me tell you if  you do this right you can make this work in your favor.<\/p>\n<p>First of all I know the automation side of things disappear, I know you can  use fulfillment services but for me personally I wouldn&#8217;t do it. I need to be in  full control of my eBay business.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a small time seller you can do this yourself and if your a big  seller you can employ someone to do this task for you and that is my plan.<\/p>\n<p>But let&#8217;s forget that side of things for now and think about what we can do  to make this work in our favor.<\/p>\n<p>I want\u00a0you to think\u00a0about the\u00a0big product launches over the last few years.<\/p>\n<p>You know, Butterfly Marketing, Traffic Secrets, Product Launch Formula, The  7 Figure Code, and many many more.<\/p>\n<p>What do they all have in common?<\/p>\n<p><strong>They are all physical products.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now I&#8217;m not saying you have to stop selling digital items. I mean most of  my income comes from ClickBank, but there is going to be a massive gap in the  market on eBay come next week and the demand for physical products will be  huge.<\/p>\n<p>You may not know this but I actually got started on eBay selling  information CD&#8217;s. I used to make good money but I knew nothing about viral  marketing and backend strategies.<\/p>\n<p>That was back in 2003 and how times have changed. If I put into practice  back then what I know now I think I would be a multi millionaire.<\/p>\n<p>But as I discovered automation and became lazy I stopped selling physical  products. Well this new policy change could just\u00a0be the wake up call I  needed.<\/p>\n<p>I plan to show you over the coming days how to make this policy change  work in your favor.<\/p>\n<p>I am in the process of\u00a0writing a short report and I will make this  available very soon. It will definitely be ready before the 31st\u00a0when the policy  change comes into effect.<\/p>\n<p>I will show you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How you can charge more than your competition and still make more  sales.<\/li>\n<li>The biggest mistake you can make when selling physical items.<\/li>\n<li>How this will provide a massive opportunity to sell other products.<\/li>\n<li>What you definitely don&#8217;t want to be doing on eBay.<\/li>\n<li>How you will generally see an increase in sales.<\/li>\n<li>How you can still make immediate upsells after a sale.<\/li>\n<li>How you can turn a $1.00 eBook into a $10.00 product.<\/li>\n<li>How eBay&#8217;s policy change could be the best thing that has happened if you  do things right.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And I am going to let you have this free. Just keep watching the blog this  week.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see the last blog post brought out some excellent comments so  please\u00a0keep sharing\u00a0your thoughts. But please let&#8217;s try and look at the  positives. It&#8217;s not all doom and gloom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is just a quick update from my last post.
