Yet Another Talk???

I’m painting again, now that there’s a market.

You don’t want to end up with a couple dozen storage units full of unsold art, so I taper off my production when sales are down. These days, I can’t work fast enough to satisfy the marketplace, which is maybe a good thing.

But, yeah, this is going to be yet another talk about eBay and that sort of thing — you know, marketing, entrepreneurship and general media mayhem, and we have to do it soon, before the Second American Civil War breaks out. Even before we start back on subject, I want to mention that THIS is the time to acquire Pre-War coins, and I have plenty for sale.

That having been said, let’s get on with the thing.

First of all, I want to make sure you have an eBay account. I’m not discounting other selling sites, but I’m restricting my selling characteristics to the eBay mode for the moment. We will discuss other means of presenting merchandise to the public.

Forgive me, I meant, of course, “merch”, not “merchandise”. The reason for the shortened word is always the same — spelling is a major obstacle to most people, even college graduates. Continue reading

Psst … Can We Talk Again???

This listing got 389 views in only a few days, and that’s normal for me on eBay.

C’mere, lemme show ya how the uni-verse works. First of all, I gotta tell ya about the Karma burn Orb. It’s the best Orb I ever made, and it alone is worth the effort to come here to make it and put it out into the general consciousness.

I want you to do this simple short daily practice: once a day, run the Karma Burn Orb — it only takes 2 minutes of your time, out of a possible 24 hours. Continue reading

CRYPTO USB NFT EJ Gold “Rome 3 Extreme” – edition of 100 – Lot of 10 for $390.00

Find out how to sell stuff online, without actually owning things. How? You have but to inquire of me in one of our morning meetings how YOU can help the community by offering things for sale without having to buy them or store them or ship them. You can sell, we drop-ship deliver for you. But what about digital downloads?

Here’s what I thought would be a good pitch for a digital download, but I strongly suggest against eBay as a venue — they are NOT friendly to game developers, and every single download costs YOU $9.95 in advance whether the item sells or not, and it’s only one at a time, no multiple listings. Forget it, there are plenty of other venues for selling videogames, and eBay generally is a big stone wall against which your voice trembles and collapses into a ball of dust.

Oh, it’s not that they’re not friendly — they are, in a cold-blooded corporate sort of fashion, quite friendly, and they’ll read you the rules and regulations over and over again, but they can’t offer advice or explain what the hell it all means. It’s not their fault; it’s just that their rules and regulations were made to keep the little guy down, and fill the pockets of the greedy bastards who control and run eBay, that’s all.

We ARE the little guy, and they never let us forget it.

So I’ll show you the wording I came up with for a classified digital download listing on eBay, even though I clicked off and will have nothing to do with it, and I’ll tell you why. The fact is, when you pay ten bucks for the ad, that’s the same as the cost of a flash drive, and it’s ME that has to pay the extra ten bucks to list it.

I clearly can’t list a thing for $20.00 bucks when I can offer the same digital download on Payloads for much less, and I don’t have to pay in advance, like I do with eBay, and I don’t pay for what I don’t sell, which is also different from the eBay deal.

So here’s the wording for a digital download:

Sure Cure For What Ails Ya!

Micky Rat and I have posted a number of DR-Dissolving Radiations Orbs on my rare & unusual seller’s store on eBay. I posted over 500 items there and and on insane investor’s emporium I posted an additional hundred or so, all with the idea in mind of offering you an opportunity to pick up something you’d like at a fraction of the price, basically a giveaway, with the added fun of an auction that starts off at a single dollar — at these prices, nobody gets hurt.

So among the things I posted are a few of the DR Orbs, and I wanted to give you an idea of what I had in mind. Continue reading

Art is Money

HUGE Hand-Painted Toulouse-Lautrec Apres, oil on canvas, $12,500.00

Art is money. It’s exactly like money and, if you handle it commercially without sentimentality, it trades fast & easy.

Stocks, Bonds, Real Estate, Commodities and now, Crypto-Currencies. That’s the standard by which we measure wealth and/or prosperity, but it’s wrong.

I just listed 422 of my own art prints on eBay, and have sold $400.00 worth on just the first day of listing them. Continue reading

I’m on a ROLL!!!

Hey, I finally, after 22 years of experience as a Power-Seller and Platinum Seller on eBay, figured out how to construct an online auction, and I’ll be only too happy to share with you the results of my more than two decades of dedicated online labor.

“What works on youtube works on eBay” — meaning, the same rules of marketing — those of attraction, retention, and persuasion, absolutely apply, especially in the use of power words and phrases, tags and other hypermessaging devices you might choose to use. Continue reading

It Worked!!!

I’m thinking of completing this and listing it on eBay. What do you think?

So I tried using the same techniques on eBay that I’ve been using on youtube, and by golly, it worked!

Same exact things do exactly the same on each venue. I can bump up the “view” rate and increase the number of bids, using the same skills and getting the same outcomes. Continue reading

Where Have I Been???

USB NFT – “Gorby’s Emporium” 1/10 – signed & numbered – $89.95

Sometimes I lose track of time, don’t you? What I mean is, I suddenly realized that it’s been days since I communicated any of this incredible stuff to anyone, so here I am to remedy that with this update:

First of all, we’re only hours away from release of the Godd Particle — just one more little tiny bug. I wouldn’t want to have to reload any of those particles with corrected software, so we’re really squeezing hard to get all the kinks out before we ship them out.

Also good news, we have enough Godd™ Particles to ship the first wave of orders — we just barely squeaked by. This is significant because our particles come to us from a far-away land, and it could take months, but as I mentioned, we have them in hand, having foreseen this situation months ago.

NFTs and Social Media

Dark Hours series will be available as crypto NFTS on opensea.

There’s no doubt about it — NFTs don’t just sell themselves. You can’t just make a couple dozen of them and throw them in the river and expect to see some returns.

There is no magic formula, just hard work and repetitive efforts, and repeatedly slamming yourself against the proverbial brick wall until something sticks, and that may take a while, but, as they say, your time is gonna come.

So in the meantime, while I’m waiting for the money transfers to happen to give me some ethereum to play with, meaning to pay the transfer fees from sales, I’ve put up a few hundred crypto NFTs on opensea. Continue reading

Links um die Ecke

Promotion

Here are some good “target urls” that could be made into landing pages, selling pages, productive pages.

ask hives — This could be made into a gallery where you could buy signed and numbered prints on fine art paper, at a mere $50 apiece, for instance, for the small ones — 5″x7″ — and more for larger prints, of course. An enterprising person could add framing, which is where all the profit is in print dealing. You’ll sell anything just to get the framing job, and that’s a great side-hustle in itself.
