What we do for Portsmouth businesses

What does a eBay Ads engagement in Portsmouth actually cover?

01

Promoted Listings Standard + Advanced (CPC)

Standard uses % of sale, Advanced is CPC bidding. We architect Portsmouth eBay accounts around the right blend — typically Standard for the bulk catalogue, Advanced for high-margin SKUs.

02

Ad-rate engineering against margin

2-8% ad rate is the typical effective range. We test rates per SKU against your real margin — not a flat blanket rate that overpays on bestsellers and starves discovery items.

03

Listing quality + Cassini ranking

Promoted Listings amplify organic positions. We optimise the listing quality fundamentals (title, item specifics, photos, returns policy) so paid spend has higher organic positions to lift.

04

Bulk management for high-SKU stores

Portsmouth eBay sellers with 5,000+ SKUs need automation, not manual bid edits. We deploy bulk-management tooling + category-level strategies that scale without proportional headcount.

05

Item-specifics + GTC strategy

Item specifics are the #1 lever for eBay organic discovery. We audit every listing for completeness. GTC (Good 'Til Cancelled) strategy maintained for stable bestsellers.

06

Cross-listing audit (eBay vs Amazon vs own-site)

Channel cannibalisation matters. We audit which SKUs perform best where and steer paid budget to the channel with highest contribution margin per unit sold.

The bit other agencies hide

No lock-in contracts.
Cancel any month. No exit fees.

Most ebay ads agencies tie you into 6, 12, or 24 months. We don't. Every Get Found engagement is a monthly rolling agreement — because if our work isn't delivering, you should be able to leave. Last year, 94% of our clients stayed without being asked to.
