Hey guys!

As you know, we have a great social networking scope here at Pikaba: groups, polls, blogs, message boards and many other. So, for those who want to built their own network on Pikaba here’s a little tutorial about Pikaba friends invitation system.

Hi there!

Hope all of you enjoyed Christmas and New Year holidays and ready for lots of deals with Pikaba.com ;)

This year gonna be very cool for all Pikaba users: we are going to implement several cool features and make your online shopping more easier and money-saving. Ok, later about this. Today I’ll give couple of tips for our sellers.

The first one is about our notification letters, if someone wants the product you have.  We send this letters from our no-reply email, unfortunately, there is no sense in replying to this email address, because we won’t forward your reply to the potential buyer. If you want to submit a quote to this buyer or ask any additional questions follow the links in the first letter, they are just below the request details.

The second one is about price lists uploading: sometimes there are some problems for us to publish them because of the wrong format of your Price list. So, if you are not sure if your price list is correct, check our Blog post about howto start right data feed and try to upload it.

Hope this tips will be useful for everyone!

Good luck!

Hi, everyone!

Hi! As you know from my previous post, offer (or quote) is your main tool to get to the customer all information about your sale proposal.Of course you can send a private message to everyone you want or use one of our Community features like “add as friend”, in fact, all these features designed not for increasing your sales, but “submit a quote” is. So, let’s speak about offers.

To give a quote you have to click on the request and get on its page with full description, map, and several useful sections below.

One of those sections named “offers” is what you need – click the expand button and enter the price you want for this product and it’sdescription with a shipping details, warranty information or discount proposals.Then click “Post offer” button and here it is, your request is posted and youjust have to wait for some time to get answer from customer. Besides you don’t needto have this product in your product sheet to give a quote, but if you havethis one in your price and customer will be able to see what he wants,  it will be a real benefit for you.

Good luck with your deals at Pikaba !

Hi! Those one of you who have been using Pikaba for a long time may remember the tag cloud at the main page’s footer. We removed it in July, but now it comes back with a new features! Now we have 2 tags directories and 2 lines with a popular categories – both for products and requests. Products common searches gives you the information about the most popular searched products and request information shows you what requests are popular among Pikaba users.

So, our sellers can take an advantage from the information given by this tags because they are really can tell you about trends and latest consumer needs – all you have to do is to give people products they need. You know, it’slike your own marketing research agency, but without any expenses – I definitely like this.

So, be in touch with your customers and don’t forget, that the Black Friday is coming on, great time for sellers, yeah ;)

Another one car story from me today.

I’ve got a car: well-running 22 years old Chevy. Actually, it’s my father’s first car and he gave it to me as a present. Why didn’t he junk it out? He loves it and believes that it’s the best car ever, so I have to drive it. J You know, this twenty-or-even-older cars are big on getting out of order: my last problem was its rotten gas tank and I’ve spend much time trying to find it in our local car parts stores.

Next time I’m sure I will spend less time, because we've launched Pikaba car parts online page to help people who are looking for car parts or accessories.

Buy car parts you need online at discount prices, choosing the highest quality parts at the lowest possible price with a variety of shipping options.

And, as a social shopping site Pikaba offers great value bargains, free advice, free help and discounts on car parts accessories such as in-car entertainment, alloy wheels and much more. With Pikaba, the car parts dealers come to you – on yourterms!  And as usual you have to know minimum information about part you want – all tags, title, picture and description will be suggested by our system. 

Hi! More great news from Pikaba: forget about huge and not clear request forms, our latest feature, the quick request form, will help you to avoid all request creation headaches.

So, you want to buy something and you have just filled the “Looking for” line and clicked on “Get started” button.

 

Pikaba.com matching system gives new features for our sellers!

Now it is easy to find out what requests are matched with your products without any subscribes, notifications or request browsing. All information you need can be found on My Products page and accessible directly from seller’s dashboard.

At My Products page you can find all matched requests for all your products – our system automatically checks all requests and compiles them with each of your products.

From there you can mark every request as a “bad match” if it does not matches with your product, can see the matched request details and, as it is possible from your dashboard, you can give a quote to user looking for item you sell.

Enjoy selling with Pikaba.com.
