1. we cant all be tesco or walmart
   and have an outlet on every high st

   multi channeling may just mean spreading yourself too thin
   to notice whats under your nose

2. Hey North – if you’ve ever sold an item off-eBay then you already *are* multi-channel 😛

3. Do boot fairs count?

4. Sure do Lynne, a boot fair ain’t eBay and therefore it’s multichannel 😆

   However in fairness the article was referring to multiple *online* channels, but again if you’ve got your own website, done some email marketing, or even have a blog aimed at generating sales then you’re already have multiple online channels 🙂

5. I am multi online channel

   and multi off line channel I sell off ebay to those that sell on ebay 😆 😆

6. or put another way
   why dilute yourself just to tick the boxes, when you can sell all you can cope with from one place,

7. rput another way ebay may have only 25% of the overall online market

   I dare bet its nearer 90% or more in my business.
   it would be pointless me running around trying to get a share of the other 10%

8. I have to say North you’re the same as me, but then neither of us are typical eBay sellers. All those with repeatable stock should at least have their own website, be building an email marketing list and maybe consider adwords

9. this is the one irritatation I have with ebay
   it seems to cater more for those with repeatable stock

   than those of us that grind out a few listings each day,

   its probably right for ebays business model

   but a little more help for those in the garden shed
   would be appreciated
