That dread question is the most important question that almost every eBay seller has to answer at some point.
"What should I sell exactly, and where can I get it?"
You've sold everything in your house that you don't want or need. You're tired of selling other people's things and don't know what to do next.
In order to build your eBay business, you need to find a reliable source for the products you want to sell. It may take some work and time, but once it is set up and exclusive, you will have an online business that is almost impossible to destroy.
You need to look for two kinds of products:
About the Products (Products that are new and in-demand)
Liquidation Products (Products that are at the end of the product cycle and being sold at a huge discount)
If you want to find introduction products, you have a lot of work ahead of you. You will need to know a lot about your customers and be able to almost guess what will sell well. You might find a supplier that sells a lot of a new product. But you might find that they don't sell well on eBay. Then you're stuck with all of these new products, and you're probably in debt.
When it comes to products that are going out of business, you have a lot more choices. A lot more research needs to be done to find out how popular the product was when it first came out. You will also be able to get products that are being sold off at a much lower price.
Once you know what kind of product you want to sell, the next step is to find a supplier. It's not as easy as doing a search on Google or looking on eBay for a wholesale list. There are a lot of big-scale scams on the internet. You might not be able to find a good supplier online, but it's not impossible.
A good way to start looking for a reliable supplier is to try out different products you buy at a discount store like Big Lots or even Walmart. When you find one that you think might be profitable, call the number on the package (which is the manufacturer's number) and ask to talk to someone about buying products to sell.
It's a long process, but you won't be sorry when you find a good supplier. It takes time and good research. Just remember that it won't be easy to find the best supplier on the Internet or in a book. Finding an exclusive source, which is a time-consuming process, is the only way to find a good, reliable supplier.
