TRUE Wholesale Sources are the Key to a Successful eBay Business
Starting a eBay business is a relatively simple process. Account setup is even a simple procedure. Typically, the initial products you sell are found around the home and garage. At some point your initial “stock” of products is gone, and your internet “Garage Sale” is over.
We now have a decision to make that very well can determine your success or failure with eBay.
Scenario 1: Do you go to garage sales, and flee markets to find your products? You can, but very time consuming. Do you aimlessly do search engine queries scrolling through page after page of announced “wholesalers” only to find other eBayer’s have a lower price on their identical item than yours? You ask yourself, “How can another seller charge less for their item than mine, if we both are buying from a wholesaler?”
The reason is that many proclaimed “Wholesalers” show many products for sale, but they are not the true “Wholesaler”. They are a retailer, that set up a nice website, and sell to you at a small discount, but they are not the true “Wholesale” Source.
Scenario 2: Do you do business with a “True” wholesaler, that works in conjunction with the manufacturer of the products. Maybe you will even find sources that will Dropship a product for you. Dropshipping is a fantastic way to conduct your eBay business, you never have to stock product, just collect the profits.
Keeping an inventory of product is not the path to take when starting out. Dropshipping is ideal. With dropship, you list the product (not purchased yet), sell the product, notify the dropshipper, they will ship out the product from their location directly to your customer, your job is to count the profit.
There are two scenarios listed above. 95% of those selling on eBay are unable to make it profitable these are the sellers not dealing with real wholesalers, these are the Scenario 1 eBayers. Scenario 2 sees the power and ability to leverage their time and money dealing with True wholesalers and dropshippers, these are your Powersellers and Future Powersellers.
There is not another business like eBay that allows anybody to succeed starting off with a zero budget. Continue to learn, read my other articles, continue to soak up information and I am confident that you will be a fellow Powerseller in no time flat.
