    I have an ebay store:

    www.veluxtechnology.com


    I am in the process of filling up the store with products. I am looking to hire some people to create copy for my auctions. You can get an idea of what I am looking for from my current buy it now items such as this one:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170213556474

    My current auctions use content that was copy/pasted from the Furman website and ebay has been removing them due to copywrite violation - so I need these re-written with original content.

    I would prefer the work to be done with dream weaver. I will provide the make, model and pictures of the item. I would like you to dig up information about the items from manufactures websites and other merchant sites such as amazon, and then re-write the copy in your own words. I am looking to hire multiple people to do this. There are hundreds of items that I want to get posted. I am not sure what the value of this service would be - if any is interested in taking something like this on let me know how much you would want per listing.

    My business partner Nick is now taking over the recruitment of writers for this project - We are still looking for more people to take this on. Please email him at nesrock at gmail dot com if you are interested. Here is the write up he has been using to find people:

    I am looking to hire someone to create ebay ads with content on technology related products. I am looking for a complete package.

    For each unit I need the following:

    - Layout for ebay ad built in dream weaver with product photos, content and company graphics.

    - 3 Versions of content and layouts with slight differentiation for each of our ebay stores and websites.

    - Payment will be sent via paypal within 7 days of completion.

    - I will supply photos, product guides, and website links to products and reference content.

    - These items will be listed on ebay and any removed listings due to copy write issues will be used to determine the continuation of work.

    - Each listing is expected to start with feature bullet points (typically 5 or more), then to bulleted short descriptions of key points, then to a detailed description of the product, features, benefits, and company information.

    - Each listing should have a short bulleted style summary of its advantages over the model below it.

    - Listings should follow the sales strategy, feature, advantage, benefit.

    - Listings are expected to be between 500 - 1500 words, but this is only an estimate.

    Thank you for taking the time to consider our opportunity. If you choose to accept please contact me and we will start with a single item and then we will review your results and respond to you with feedback and possibly more work within 10 business days. If you are selected you will be given a product line to work on and asked for expectations on completion.

    We are willing to pay by the product, or by the word, or a combination of the above on a payout scale.
