Seth Godin - eBay - The Dip - and $10,000 in free advertising on Squidoo
“The sooner we view the web as a process, not a place, the quicker we will understand it. Its two flows. The flow of information and the flow of attention.” – Seth Godin
I don’t know what was more cool today….that I got to interview THE Seth Godin or the fact that he gave OSI THE scoop on their amazing eBay Live $10,000 promotion!!
If you weren’t on the call today, wow..you missed an incredible mind changing hour. My mind was racing with business ideas from Seth’s books before the call…& now I can’t stop thinking about where my ‘Dips’ are (besides my dating life – lol) and how I am going to be remarkable to push through the Dips.
We also got the info about Squidoo from the Head Squid himself. The lenses on Squidoo are getting ranked on the first page of Google!! (Up to 70% of traffic to their eBay Stores is now coming in from Squidoo!) The smart eBayers are making multiple lenses to promote their niche, products, services and more. Check out some of the OSI’ers lenses.
Don’t forget - eBay Live, Thursday, June 14th at 3pm in room 253a – see Seth Godin Live, In Person! (with a book signing right afterwards).

and when Seth talked about getting your customers to write lenses about you, the amazing Dinah (DOUA member and eBay Store PowerSeller) had already done this one and surprised me with it today: http://www.squidoo.com/DisabledOnlineUsersAssociationDisabledSuccesseBayers/
Thank you Dinah – what a blessing you are!

Hi, Janelle - I enjoyed yesterday’s session with Seth Godin, so much I want my husband to listen to the recording with me so we can talk about it. And thanks for the encouragement on getting started with Squidoo! As you can see, I set up a lens, and became an eBay affiliate yesterday. So today I will be reading the free how-to book and figuring out how to do the links. Thanks so much! Babette http://www.squidoo.com/babettewood/

This is an excellent resource (that I just found of course LOL). In terms of Squidoo I am a huge fan and encourage a lot of my eBay seller friends to participate and what is the easiest and least expensive way to achieve better natural search engine indexing while pulling your ideas together. Being able to recommend resources and having ready to use RSS modules that make eBay affiliate arrangements a cut and paste deal is the genius in simplicity that was needed. The only downside to all this good stuff is Seth and Megan will be crowded at LIVE but they are both top notch people and Ill have to push and shove to get up front LOL
