Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
Quote:happy to be in it for the long haul, hundreds of dollars in profits from today's sales, kumbaya By the way, USER has NEVER divulged who he is, what he sells on WP, what his store name is, or what his relationship to PS is, despite being asked REPEATEDLY. None of his can be verified. He has no credibility whatsoever. The only way he could have $$hundreds in sales, is if his name is Ray and he "sold" a few more store subscriptions to the naive, desperate and gullible. |

Hundreds of dollars in profits and undoubtedly thousands of dollars in gross sales today. [/quote] You are selling the wrong products if you need to make thousands of dollars in gross sales to make hundreds of dollars in profits. Either that or you are spending far too much on fees or advertising or something. That isn't good. |

Again, USER you have NO CREDIBILITY here. Tell us who you are, what you sell on WP, what your store name and ID is, and what your relationship is with PS, so we can verify your BS thousands in sales. Otherwise, as far as I'm concerned, you are totally full of it. Stop hiding behind a sock puppet, you sniveling coward.

Of the 3 thousand plus reputedly non-paying sellers. How many of those were thrown in this classification because they were banned for speaking of taboo subjects? Account canceled without notice but they are expected to pay a bill? I'd ask for another breakdown specifically aimed at this scenario and I bet you'll find about 2,000 of the 3,000 were thrown in the non-paying category because of this. [/quote] For all the WP "sellers" lurking here - better go check your WP friends pages... in some cases, half or more of your "in it for the long haul" friends have been renamed "deadbeats" and their stores are GONE. |

Welcome to The Revolution Your auction site should work for you, not the other way around. Somewhere along the line the biggest online auction site in the world forgot that. They forgot that without the active participation of their dedicated and loyal seller and buyer base that they would be nothing more than a jazzy logo and a company with a funny sounding name. They forgot that they buy and sell nothing without the people that make up their community. They forgot that imposing rate hikes and policy changes without meaningful input from membership can have profoundly detrimental effects on thousands or even hundreds of thousands of businesses. They forgot about you. Wagglepop was founded with the sole intention of offering an alternative venue for those that have had enough of being forgotten or taken advantage of and are willing to help build something effective and lasting through sacrifice, hard work and patience. Make no mistake, Wagglepop is no "quick fix" or instant solution. It is opportunity, and sometimes that is all that good people willing to work need to succeed. Together, we can change everything. Leadership Council We The People is a special Wagglepop program designed specifically to give membership a direct voice in all of the dynamics that make up an online auction style marketplace. If we feel that larger philosophical change is necessary, we will discuss those possibilities with membership or membership representatives whenever possible. We want Wagglepop to be a direct reflection of the goals and wishes of membership provided it is good for the community as a whole and the company for growth both today and into the future. To that end we will soon be introducing the We The People Leadership Council, a board of selected membership representatives who understand and support the Wagglepop philosophy. Leadership Council representatives will have direct access to management and detailed insight into the decisions that shape Wagglepop. Some members of the Leadership Council will have specific community responsibilities such as mentoring or moderation in our ongoing effort to put as much of the "power" as we can into the hands of the people of Wagglepop. Wagglepop is your auction site, and we'll never forget that. Support The Revolution We The People is also a daily participatory system designed to give members the direction and tools needed to help promote Wagglepop so that we may build a larger more fully formed marketplace and at the same time let others benefit from the advantages Wagglepop offers to both buyers and sellers. Wagglepop needs one thing and one thing only to succeed: Participation. Participation means opening a Wagglepop Store through SmartSell Pro and keeping it open. There is not a single business in the world that ever succeed by closing the doors. Participation means "getting the word out" to as many people as you know (or even do not yet know) who you think would consider buying or selling on Wagglepop, or who have had enough of their current auction site and what goes on there. Every time participation increases, we do two critical things: 1. We populate the marketplace. 2. We generate revenue. With that, not only will we have something to promote, we'll have the revenues to be able to do that. Without a populated marketplace or revenues, no promotion is possible or even necessary. Together, we can change everything. But only together. What You Can Do 1. Submit an Article Write a short article about Wagglepop and why you think it's a great place for sellers or buyers. Be sure to include a link back to Wagglepop. This is a fantastic way to get the word out to thousands of potential members! We have linked to some of the very best article sites below: www.ezinearticles.com www.goarticles.com www.articlesbase.com www.articledashboard.com 2. Contact the Media Get the word out! Contact radio stations, television stations, newspapers, online blog sites ....wherever you think news of Wagglepop can spread to thousands or millions, do it! 3. Tell Everyone Use that address book. Email everyone you can about Wagglepop and ask them to do the same. Tell your barber, your mailman or anyone else you think might be interested. 4. Social Bookmark One of the absolute best ways to let the internet world know about Wagglepop is through social bookmarking. Bookmark Wagglepop through the links below and be sure to review Wagglepop when others have already done so. AddThis Social Bookmark Button 5. Promote Wagglepop in Groups and Forums Do you participate in groups and forums? Tell everyone and anyone about Wagglepop and our opportunity! Do the above Steps #1 through #5 every single day! It's up to you.
The one thing you can never afford to lose is your temper.

Quote:Benefits Include OMG! It's a miracle! Karen claimed that this wasn't even possible - to do so would require some "major" script rewriting. The engineering department has been working very hard evidently. Either that or Ray finally read the RScript manual.

Re: Wagglepop 2: Deja Vu as Auction Site That Left Sellers Stranded Reopens
LOSER USER is the best spokesperson WP could ever have. Note the similarities in demeanor and philosophy:
1) Never answer a business or any other question directly (deceit is always best) 2) Avoid issues and try to change the subject whenever possible (diversionary tactics) 3) Make grandiose claims that cannot be verified or substantiated (make up stuff to make you look good) 4) Hide behind a skirt, curtain, sock poppet (so no one can look you in the eye and challenge you on your BS) 5) Blame sellers who are major successes on other sites (including their own) that it is their lack of "business sense" that prevents them from becoming successful on WP 6) Operate in secret and use smoke and mirrors at will 7) Liberally pour gospel, mantra and emotion as salt in wounds of those who are gullible and vulnerable (ripe for the pickin'), hoping to snare them in a irrational moment of weakness (why else would USER come here?) Need I continue? Yes, Eclectica, the great kumbaya spirit has magically descended upon WP and bestowed the Great White Ray with the divine knowledge necessary to push a few, already existing script buttons -- curiously at a time when eBay decides to change its feedback policy and fee structure. Who would have thunk it? Quote: 1. Submit an Article Translation: We have no intention of promoting you, the seller -- no way, Jose. What would ever make you think that your ACTIVATION FEE, MONTHLY STORE FEE and FVFs would ever be used to help get you noticed? So [b]SPAM, SPAM SPAM your butts off until you're blue in the face, your little fingers are worn down to bloody nubs from typing spam to every entity in the known universe, and your fists are dripping with saliva from shoving the WP mantra down every Tom, Dick and Harry's throat. [/b]Oh, and could it possibly be that the list was actually lifted from the supposedly grandiose, secret "marketing/promotion strategy" that WP promised to put into effect during the Grand Re-Opening in March, but never did? Great thinking: keep the carp in a can and pretend it's original. Oh, USER, I made this suggestion while a seller there and am offended it's not on the list: "stand on the corner in a WP bunny suit and sponge finger." Oh, and Andrew, Ray, USER, please explain the "business sense" for SERIOUS CAREER SELLERS (not hobbyists) in doing all that work for someone other than themselves and GLEEFULLY PAY FOR THE PRIVILEGE forever and ever, amen? |
