Open eBay account. Contact sellers. Tell them about how product will make them more money. Offer free trial. Rinse and repeat.

A lot of sellers have external online stores which usually have an email address listed. Plus it's going to take you a lot of time to do this. Nobody said it would be fast. Welcome to the world of trying to make a real business work. It's hard. Takes time. There is no way to simy hack it.
