So I do a lot of complaining about eBay and one reason is that I know eBay can do a lot better and it is like watching a really smart kid not even try in school, you are just disappointed because they have no interest in trying to reach their potential.
I think a lot of this was Devin Wenig (Bye – don’t let the door hit you where the good Lord split you, Devin!)
Of course changes will NOT be instant and the still have all of the people who carried water for Wenig so who knows but there is perhaps some hope that eBay is willing to start listening to sellers and will use our ideas to grow. It is STUPID SIMPLE MATH — if we sell more, ebay make more $$ in fees — DUH.
So there is a nice little email from Jordan Sweetnam on your Seller Hub today. No goofy video, no stupid “tune in for the webinar” at some weird time that works for nobody because all ebay sellers are in different time zones — just a NICE LETTER THAT YOU CAN READ YOURSELF LIKE A REAL ADULT RUNNING YOUR BUSINESS
Yay for you Jordan!!
So looks like Jordan is returning to ebay after being somewhere else – where — well he doesn’t say but one look at Google and it turns out it is from WALMART as head of customer experience and he has actually been at ebay since July of this year.
So looks like he left ebay in 2016 when he was head of “the seller experience”. I can’t say the “seller experience” was rocking during his tenure of it from 2014-2016 but I am willing to wrap all that up and throw it out with the Devin trash and give this guy a chance .
I am just hoping Jordan Sweetnam can DO WHAT HE SAYS HE WANTS TO DO — and make the ebay selling experience about me and my business and ebay supporting me and enjoying the fees from growth rather than barfing down my throat like Wenig has been doing.
BRING IT ON JORDAN — TIME TO SHINE and turn this ship around and get eBay back to the place that we all love to sell and buy! Because all of us lowly sellers are also buyers which was something Wenig never really understood 🙂
