I just thought I would share this. Whether it's helpful to anyone here...?
Problem
Last year I was frustrated because I couldn't write passionately about the products I was selling. My descriptions were generic and lacked punch and individuality. It also took me around an hour to create the information for each product (stamps for collectors). In some cases, I just didn't know enough about the product.
Solution
I connected with Stamp Collectors on Facebook. My customers. People that loved the product I was selling. I contacted the ones with the most detailed profiles, that were English speaking and active in the community. I offered them my product for free in exchange for their time and expertise. After they got over the incorrect notion that they were being scammed, they were happy to receive 10 items at a time each, research the stamp, scan / photograph, write the title, type the product information and upload everything to a folder in the cloud which I then reviewed and added to my inventory. I now have arrangements with many stamp and coin collectors worldwide and send out about 100 products a month to people who are passionate about my products, write my product info and publicise my business for free within the collecting community. The stamps probably cost me about $1 each so it's a no brainer.
My customers are creating my product descriptions for me...
Not sure if this can work for anyone else but maybe it can apply to your business
