    Business People Keep Sending me Money for Virtual Goods But I don't Have Time to Send them Help!

    Ok, this sounds wrong.

    But,

    I have a website set up that sells virtual products. I only sell 3 items which cost £3, £18 or £30.

    Now I only get about 10 uniques a day to this mainstream site but people seem to love it and keep buying through PayPal.

    I will get a sale every so often although this could be huge if I promoted it right but I don't have the time so I don't..

    Sometimes I will get 2 sales a day, other times I will get zero sales for 2 months then a £30 order.

    If someone buys it takes time to send the digital goods, this can take up to 30 minutes for a £30 order.

    Up till recently I have managed to keep on top of things and for the most part the people that paid received their order but now I find I can't complete.
    I dare not even check my email because I know there are people that have paid and not received. Some of these are regular buyers as well. Of course they can claim back through Paypal which I fully expect them to do but I wish I could keep on top of things.

          Is this some joke? I don't get it. No time to send digital goods? These kinds of things are usually automated in normal ecommerce platform.

              I think it was supposed to be a rant but then changed to business.

              If I ask one question it would be.

              What should I do or (anyone wanna buy site).

                  It's not auto. I have to manually select multiple items, upload via ftp, create email etc etc..

                      Why you don't automate it? There are just 3 products, right? You could even just create a draft email for all these products and change just the recipients email when sending the order (so max. 3 emails per order). But I would get regular ecommerce platform or plugin and automate this.

                          Digital goods gets delivered digitally and automatically, that is the whole point.

                          You're doing it wrong!

                              No, you misunderstand!

                              One email per order, the customers. And I already have a draft that I use again and again and again and again.

                              I need to find the relative order (example 11232) which they get from the website and locate it on a spreadsheet so I know what to send them...

                              Ok, so perhaps there are not just 3 items.. actually there are 1000's of items but I only sell in 3 price brackets.

                                          OK, you need a webshop. You know, a real one. I get "desperate" just from reading that (I feel your pain).

                                          So, why you don't already have one? What is your site anyways; the platform? Doesn't Paypal offer quite sophisticated tools with what alone you can automate your order fulfilling?

                                                  The site is pure html, just 13 pages.
                                                  It sells lots of different muzick, but each sale is based upon how many customer wants, either 1, 10 or 20.

                                                  Once they decide track numbers they enter that into Form via PayPal.

                                                  Is long process.

                                                                  I suggest you spend whatever time it takes to manually provide them with the product...then figure a way to automate it.

                                                                  The answer is rather basic and simple.

                                                                                                  At a bare minimum hire a programmer to automate it for you so you dont have these problems. Spending a good $200-500 now to have it work without you will save you a lifetime of support aggravation and returns.

                                                                                                  I'm surprised your payment processor hasn't cut you off for not delivering goods to people who paid.

                                                                                                          How is the OP able to sell this music from his copy a shop ?

                                                                                                          Is it licensed or is it possible that the OP is stealing this music and reselling it ?

Spending a good $200-500 now to have it work without you will save you a lifetime of support aggravation and returns.

                                                                                                              I'm surprised your payment processor hasn't cut you off for not delivering goods to people who paid.
                                                                                                              Well as it's PayPal I guess they will just claim it back, same as if you buy off ebay and the item isn't delivered.

                                                                                                              I could have actually delivered the products in the time I have wasted in this thread.

                                                                                                                                                                      If it's music, someone wrote it, someone played it, someone recorded it, someone published it. So all those people own rights to it.

                                                                                                                                                                      How are you able to sell it, since even Karaoke backing music is subject to copyright ?

                                                                                                                                                                      Did you buy a resale license for every track ? Because if not you're stealing.
