Product: eBay DIY Guides. An online authoring tool for creation of step-by-step guides.
The Do-it-Yourself guides project started when I approached a Business Development colleague and proposed building this online authoring tool that would leverage my experience with VUVOX and position eBay as a leader on important strategical auto enthusiasts segments - DIY and Do-It-For-Me.
DIY guides allow sellers to promote and feature the parts and accessories they are selling. Showing customers how to install the products they have listed on eBay Motors in an engaging and informative slideshow give their listings a clear advantage over their competition.
The guides are fully embeddable into any eBay listing or website, making them a powerful tool to entice customers to visit and stay on the website. Creators can earn extra money with the Affiliate Program.
If users have a special tip, trick or technique, they can share it with other members of the auto enthusiast community, showing how they have repaired or modified their vehicle. Those users can get paid for specialized content and from sales originated from their guide.
This tool was designed to enable extension of the guides to areas beyond eBay Motors, being a generic step-by-step tool. It is flexible enough to work for very basic guides with few steps, as well as with complex guides with several steps and sub-steps.
