Grow Your Cross Border Sales: Overlooked Opportunities on eBay for Brands

Kathy Terrill, eBay Power Seller & Int'l Consultant

When we think of eBay we usually think  ‘that’s where you sell all of those things from your closets, basement or garage that you no longer want. It’s that auction site.'

That was how eBay started, but a lot has changed since then.  Today it is a fast growing massive marketplace where savvy sellers can set up their own online stores.  

Consider this:

  • In 2020, eBay’s global gross merchandise volume reached $100 billion, up 16.9% year-on-year.  
  • It ranks second after Amazon in terms of GMV.  
  • And it is the fifth largest marketplace worldwide, weighing in after China’s JD.com.
  • The company ended 2020 with 185 million active buyers, and 1.7 billion global customer visits per month, making it the second most visited platform worldwide.


EBay is proving that it has the ability to sustain the gains it has seen during COVID.

Yet most brands and individual sellers overlook the huge opportunities here - particularly for their growing cross border sales.

If you want to learn more about the opportunities on eBay then the person to see is Kathy Terrill.  She’s a leading eBay super seller with a 15 year history as a top eBay  seller as well as 25 years in brick-and-mortar retail.   Her website name “I Love to Be Selling” says it all.

In addition to selling on eBay, Kathy is  an eBay educator and consultant, and small business advocate, as well running the only Facebook group exclusively for eBay store owners.
