Are Your Black Friday and Cyber Monday Sales Ready?

Have you planned one-day sales for Black Friday and Cyber Monday for your eBay store or other online selling venue? If you haven't, you may be missing out!

Many of the major retailers have already started pre-Black Friday sales this week (think amazon.com) and online shoppers already have the opportunity to pick up some great deals. It's only going to get better between now and Cyber Monday, so don't be left out!

Have a mailing list? Get a newsletter out now, then a reminder the day before wouldn't be a bad idea either. Someone I follow on Twitter announced her Black Friday sale this morning and is taking pre-orders for her etsy store. Great idea, and a great way to advertise!

If you're planning to do some shopping on eBay, check your homepage for a coupon. There's a 10% off coupon on my eBay home page and that's something I need to take advantage of soon, before it expires. Bet you have one, too.

With all these sales popping up, seems to me that it would be just as productive to stay home on Friday to do your bargain shopping online. Unless, of course, you just love those crowds and, oh my, that Black Friday traffic.

Happy Thanksgiving, and happy selling (and shopping)!
