Just getting started on eBay? Or maybe you have a business that might do better if you sold your products online as well?Did you know that there are there are fewer than 30 people nationwide who meet the qualifications of being an official ‘eBay Certified Educational Specialist’?
Certified Education Specialists are trained through eBay. We have two here in Connecticut.
I spoke at length with Marlene Gavens of Suffield last night. She’s extremely knowledgeable, and it’s clearly evident that she loves her work!
Marlene offers group classes through area colleges, including Quinebaug Valley Community College in Danielson. (Her next class there is on April 5th, from noon to 4:30 PM.) She also provides individual marketing & business consultations for large, small and home based businesses.
Most of Marlene’s classes are for those who know the basics of how to get around on the computer, but may be new to eBay. Many of her students have purchased items on the site, but have been hesitant to sell. There’s a lot of information to absorb in a few hours time, so Marlene offers 30 days of support by email or phone for those who have attended a class.
Courses include The Basics of Buying and The Basics of Selling. She also offers a class for those more advanced who would like to learn about setting up an eBay store. Whether you already have an eBay Store or are considering opening one, this class may be perfect for you! Having an eBay Store can definitely increase sales -- if it's set up properly.
In the class, Marlene teaches how to build an eBay store, customize it, manage it and promote it -- plus you'll learn to better understand your business through eBay's traffic and sales reports.
In Marlene’s own eBay store, she offers Gift Certificates for her services too!
Marlene Gavens poses with Jim Griffith, Dean of eBay Educationand author of "The Official eBay Bible."
Additionally, Marlene is a mentor for those who are interested in teaching others on how to do eBay!
Although I’ve been buying and selling on eBay for quite a long time (10 years now), Marlene shared a few of her favorite resources with me, which I found very helpful. She is an absolute pleasure to speak with... Her enthusiasm for her work comes through loud and clear!

This is exciting to hear that one can know what the product he has to sell in the market and what not. For this one has to Learn How to Sell on Ebay and for this purpose Certified Education Specialists are trained through ebay. I conclude that by saying one can make lots of money if they concentrate on a single product which is demand in the market.
