Live blogging eBay talk at Internet Retailer - Stephanie Tilenius

This am in Boston, Stephanie Tilenius, GM of eBay North America, gave a short keynote to over 4000 retailers.  I attended and captured the following notes in outline format.  Here's the blurb:

eBay overview:

• 3m items sold every day
• Secondary market is $500b - eBay's sweet spot 
• Talked about daily deal and how they tweet the deals 
• iPhone app has had 3m downloads 

eBay is focused on three things:

• Selection
  
  •  Making search easier  - she talked about BestMatch some
• Value
  
  •  28% of listings on eBay come with free shipping 
• Trust
  
  • DSRs
  • 33% of sellers have 4.8+ 
  • Sellers with 4.8+ DSRs grew at 11% y/y - faster than ecommerce 

This fall, eBay will roll out a program that further enhances trust. (didn't say more, interesting teaser here.)

• eBay helps us sell more

• 12,000 items listed on eBay 
• Daily deal has been great for Tiger - driving lots of inventory    

On eBay, you are seeing new merchants, a new buyer experience and a new eBay.

"We are building a better eBay every day."

Want to partner with retailers to tap into the World's largest marketplace.  As we help our retailers grow, we can transform ecommerce.  Ecommerce is only 5% of overall retail today and we think it should be 20% - let's work together to do that.

We're excited about moving up-market, thanks for your time.
