$2500 Chewing Gum?
| Category: Home Based Business | Date: 2001-11-16 |
Imagine selling ...
- A package of Coca-Cola chewing gum for $2500!
- What about buying a skateboard for $2 and selling it for $385?
- Would you pay $22,600 for a picture of Elvis?
- How about $660,000 for Dorothy's red shoes from the Wizard of Oz movie?
Too ordinary?
- What about Mao Tse Tung's limousine?
- The robot from the old TV show, Lost in Space?
- The presidential yacht Sequoia, with pictures of president Kennedy entertaining visitors in the stateroom?
- Or the 72 foot swordboat from The Perfect Storm movie ... along with George Clooney's costume, assorted props and a trip to Hamburg, Germany, for the premier of the movie?
All of these goodies, and thousands more like them, are sold every day on the internet auctions ... quite simply the easiest way on the planet to earn money!
"But, what do I sell?"
1. The first major way to make money is selling merchandise you already own. Most people start their auction businesses by cleaning out their attics and garages, selling the accumulation of stuff that we all have.
Once all that is gone, however, and you now have a bad case of auction fever ... what do you sell? The easiest way to find goods is to start haunting garage sales, flea markets and the like. These are just the most obvious ways to find products, though. There are dozens more.
2. And, what about selling merchandise that isn't in your possession, that you have never seen and you definitely don't have to ship? The coolest thing about this is that there is absolutely no risk! After the merchandise is bought, then you order it with the money you receive from your buyer.
3. There are all kinds of reasons why people shop on the internet, but one of the strongest is because the net offers unique items. In our white bread culture it is so often difficult to find something worth buying.
There are so many talented and creative people who want to express themselves by creating beautiful and unique items. The trend towards a home business is beginning to include large numbers of craftspeople, those who take pride in their work, who do what they do because they can't help it, who see themselves as more than an inter-changeable part in a corporate machine, who simply must express themselves or live lives of frustration.
Do you have something you would like to do, something you want to create? Or, do you know people who feel this way, but know nothing about marketing or how to sell their products?
4. Perhaps you would prefer to sell only a few very high-profit items - such as cars, industrial equipment, airplanes and the like. What's even better, is that you don't have to own these products, or even put any of your own money into them!
I can guarantee that there are people very near you who can't dispose of some large ticket items and don't know what to do. They are frustrated and discouraged. You have an opportunity to be their white knight. After all, someone sold an $8,000,000 hotel on an auction site - so the possibilities are as vast as your imagination.
5. Perhaps you already have your own business - or want to. Don't be alarmed by this. We're not talking about the owner of an office building with 200 employees.
We're talking about ... you.
If your office is in your basement or spare bedroom, and you are the CEO, receptionist, marketing director, accountant, sales staff and janitorial service, you have come to the right place! Auctions can be used as jet fuel for your business.
6. The last method is the crown jewel. It is for the really ambitious who want to join the new club of internet millionaires.
You can use your auction site to promote your web page, and your web page to promote your site, in a perfect circle, continuously cycling back and forth. (For all the details, get our complimentary ebook, How To Suck Up Hungry Customers Faster Than a Vacuum Cleaner on Steroids!)
Throw in great products, great content and perhaps some affiliate programs, and it's hard to miss making huge sums of money.
The amount of money you make depends totally on your goals. Many auction sellers just want a few hundred extra dollars a month so that they can indulge their hobbies. Others want to be super-rich. Millions of people are buying and selling as you read these words, and you can play whenever you're ready.
