AUCTIONWORKS CUSTOMER MJRSALES WINS EBAY'S ENTREPRENUER OF THE YEAR AWARD
Using Auctionworks software, apparel seller Mjrsales has doubled its eBay business in less than six months
December 4, 2003 (ATLANTA)--- Atlanta-based Auctionworks™ today announced its apparel customer, Mjrsales, was awarded eBay's "Entrepreneur of the Year" award. eBay CEO, Meg Whitman and members of the eBay executive team presented the award in San Francisco during an eBay Seller Summit.
"It was very exciting to meet Meg Whitman and be recognized by eBay for the outstanding work our entire organization has put forth in building our eBay business," said Jeff Bradshaw, President and CEO Mjrsales.
Mjrsales first registered on eBay in March of 2001 but didn't start thinking of it as a real business opportunity until late in 2002. "We were just getting started and really didn't know much about selling on eBay," said Mark Mendelson, Mjrsales Director of Operations, and the man charged with figuring out eBay. "We worked with another eBay Preferred Solution Provider, before settling on Auctionworks in December of 2002," according to Mendelson.
"Auctionworks has been instrumental in helping us become the leading apparel seller on eBay." "The Auctionworks team helped improve our eBay operations, their software has enabled us to increase listings by over 500%, process over 20,000 transactions each month and their account management team has been outstanding in providing leadership for our business," stated Mendelson.
"We couldn't be happier with the partnership, Auctionworks has been very responsive to our needs and have helped us reinvent our operation several times in the last 18 months," added Bradshaw.
