Topic Description: I take no ups, only what I generate on the phone and through the Internet. Is there anyone else that would like to share ideas? What can can someone do to improve their telephone skills or the effectiveness of their Internet department/business?

Message:
I have been finding that it's often difficult to manage the Internet, take phone calls, and then take ups. I do all three here. My major concern would be "how to sell them over the Internet". How can others not take ups and still be successful on the Internet?

Chis, Just want to tell you how I agree with you on the price thing. I will tell you I make more money now than when I did play the hide the price game. Once in a while I would hit a buyer who would allow me a large gross, but mostly not. Now I just spend my time on the phone and or on the computer and I will discuss anything they want on the phone or email. Yes I have people shop me but I have many feel comfortable because I am willing to help them and give them the info they want. People dont like the back and forth game. Just put it on the table let them see it and they dont wish to negotiate.
