Ask any auction seller these days what the current market is like and undoubtedly most will say that buyers are being extremely careful with their money. As the recession continues to bite sellers are also facing pressure to reduce costs so that they can pass additional savings on to their cost-concious customers.

Selling on a viable marketplace with reduced costs is a must for most Power Sellers especially at times such as these. Enter CQout's new 'Quick Launch Assistance' telephone service to help Power Sellers get their bulk listings up and running quickly and simply.

CQout may not yet be a household name, but recent appearances on BBC2 'Working Lunch' and Channel Five's 'The Gadget Show' plus well over 1 million listings suggest that CQout is a growing alternative to eBay.

"With no listing fees, CQout is a low cost haven for Power Sellers," explains CQout MD Siamak Bashi. "Anyone can do the sums that show the real 'fully loaded' cost of having to pay for each and every listing can be crippling when not every listed item will sell. Our 'no sale, no fee' policy for basic listings means that a Power Seller can put their entire inventory up on CQout without having to worry about the cost."

"We care passionately about helping our Sellers because our success is intrinsically based on their success," says CQout CEO Bashi. "Unlike eBay, CQout earns an income only when Sellers makes sales. And that means that our aims and incentives are aligned with those of the Seller right from the outset. So we do everything we can to get a seller off to a great start."

"When a new Power Seller requests the 'Quick Launch Assistance' service, one of our support agents calls back the Seller within 24 hours and helps them through any issues they may have in uploading their inventory to CQout," explains Bashi, pointing out that Sellers often get frustrated with automated email responses to queries from other auction sites. The CQout solution enables real dialogue with a real person."
