Top Sellers Discover Ways to Make Even More on eBay

Orem, UT – January 8, 2006 – With the help of eBay Certified Providers HammerTap research and Worldwide Brands product sourcing, top eBay sellers like Tim Reynolds are creating profitable businesses online.

For the past 14 weeks, Reynolds, a Gold PowerSeller, has participated in an exclusive study, conducted by HammerTap and Worldwide Brands. The study is designed to determine how market research and product sourcing work hand in hand to increase the profitability of eBay sellers.

Reynolds has had access to Hammertap’s detailed market research, and to Worldwide Brands’ powerful product sourcing tool, OneSource, which connects him with pre-verified, Factory-Authorized Wholesalers willing to work with online retailers.

“We wanted to see how rich market research, coupled with the best in product sourcing, really helped sellers,” says Jen Cano, spokesperson for HammerTap, the original eBay market research experts. “Although Tim was already very successful on eBay, we wanted to see just how successful eBay sellers can be.”

The study results so far?
“I can directly correlate progress in my business to HammerTap,” says Reynolds. “My gross revenue is up over 40 percent since joining this study, the number of listings that I have has decreased by about 50 percent and HammerTap has also given me some insight into what special features and keywords to use.”

“For eBay Sellers, there’s nothing more critical than having a steady, reliable source of products to sell, and OneSource makes that easy,” says Robin Cowie, President of Worldwide Brands, leaders in Wholesale Product Sourcing for online sellers. “Hammertap tells sellers what products they need to be sourcing, and Worldwide Brands connects them with sources for those products.”

Throughout the study, Reynolds and the other study participants have kept a weekly sales journal. The journal is available at http://www.hammertap.com/growmyprofits.html. The study ends late this month.
