Great advice…for Cyber Monday but most of them also for every day through the holidays.
A note about CampaignGO’s Markdown Guru. At the risk of sounding like a commercial it’s really the quickest and easiest way to create sales but it also has many more capabilities than eBay’s Markdown Manager. It’s free all the way through the holidays so worth checking out.

It talks about why they’re important, types of sales, strategies, timing and much more.
Good luck to everyone for a great holiday season! Just saw an article that talked about online sales up on Black Friday by 14% over last year.
I so agree Chris! I use and love CampaignGO. It saves me so much time! And time for online sellers is a most precious commodity!
