Ways to boost your eBay sales:

Present yourself as a reputable seller. By creating a brand you can get noticed and reassure buyers that you are a safe bet.
Take advantage of free marketing for your eBay business. Marketing is expensive and so it is important to make best use of the all the free ways of promoting your products.
Improve product presentation. Listings which do not give full information about the product or the T&Cs of purchase put off buyers.
Use Listing software. This will speed the process of listing on eBay.
Remove barriers to sales like providing detailed information of products, delivery and payment options. This will help for potential customers to make a purchase.
