How to hire eBay marketers
Having trouble selling your goods on eBay? An eBay marketer can help you write eBay-optimized product listings and use inbound marketing tactics to boost sales.
So how do you hire eBay marketers? What follows are some tips for finding top eBay marketers on Upwork.
How to shortlist eBay marketing professionals
As you’re browsing available eBay marketing consultants, it can be helpful to develop a shortlist of the contractors you may want to interview. You can screen profiles on criteria such as:
- Industry fit. You want an eBay marketer who understands your industry so they can help you figure out how best to reach your target market.
- Project experience. Screen candidate profiles for specific skills and experience (e.g., building a list of email subscribers through Mailchimp).
- Feedback. Check reviews from past clients for glowing testimonials or red flags that can tell you what it’s like to work with a particular eBay marketer.
How to write an effective eBay marketing job post
With a clear picture of your ideal eBay marketer in mind, it’s time to write that job post. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.
An effective eBay marketing job post should include:
- Scope of work: From SEO keyword research to social media management, list all the deliverables you’ll need.
- Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project.
- Background: If you prefer experience with certain industries, software, or marketing channels, mention this here.
- Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.
