How to Sell Stuff on eBay Tips for Quick, Easy Profits

How to Sell Stuff on eBay Tips for Quick, Easy Profits To celebrate its 20th birthday, eBay is offering big discounts during a “20 Days of Deals” event and is hosting a special two-day “summit” that starts Thursday at the San Jose Convention Center. The convention is focused on businesses and serious independent sellers who aspire to make good moneyâ€"perhaps even a good livingâ€"from moving merchandise on eBay. We thought the arrival of eBay’s big anniversary would also be a good time to reflect on the many times when it seemed easy even for novices to cash in by flipping suddenly hot items online for quick profits. We’re talking about crazes like the one that occurred this past spring, when the release of Lilly Pulitzer designs at Target crashed the retailer’s siteâ€"and when anyone who managed to get their hands on the quickly sold-out merchandise could sell it for a handsome premium online. From McDonald’s Big Mac “secret sauce” to a long list of must-have sold-out toys that appear like clockwork, frenzies over suddenly hot goods pop up quite regularly. With each comes the opportunity to make some money by buying low and selling high. After consulting some experts and gathering research, we’ve assembled a list of tips to keep in mind if you’re trying to play this game. The strategies aren’t limited to eBay, mind you. In most cases, they’re just as valid if you’re selling on Amazon, Craigslist, or any other outlets. Keep up with the trends. Sometimes a hot, must-have item pops up totally out of the blue. For instance, few people predicted that a robotic hamster (a.k.a. Zhu Zhu Pets) would be the hottest toy of the 2009 holiday season, selling for an enormous premium online to parents desperate to please their kids on Christmas morning. More often, however, someone who is paying attention to pop culture and shopping trends can make an educated guess as to the kinds of items that will be in high demand among rabid fans. Target has a long history of partnering with trendy designers like Missoni and Lilly Pulitzer, and the results have typically been near-instantaneous sellouts followed by higher-priced resales at eBay. Likewise, you didn’t need the Force to foresee that, among other Stars Wars merchandise, the remote-controlled BB-8 Droid from the forthcoming “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” would be an instant hitâ€"and will probably be in high demand for months to come. Danna Crawford, a.k.a. the Power Selling Mom, who has been a seller on eBay since 1997 and is attending eBay’s 20th anniversary convention this week, advises would-be sellers to take a close look at Sunday newspaper circulars and advertisements to see what products are being pumped up. “All the big box companies have done their homework,” she says, and they’ll be promoting the items that are most likely to be popular among shoppers. Plan ahead. Even if you think it’s crazy to wait in line for hours to buy the latest iPhone or retro Air Jordans, the fact that people will endure such situations should be a sign that these items will be hot sellers online. When you have a good idea that a soon-to-be-released product will be in high demand, figure out all the particulars, including when the item will first go on sale online, and/or what stores in your area will have ample supplies. It’s obviously easier to do your shopping in your pajamas on the couch, but there is a risk of getting shut out: Target’s website crashed this past spring when the Lilly Pulitzer collaboration was launched. Then again, waiting in line for a store to open is a time suck, and the in-store shopping experience can be frenzied at first. React quickly. Even if you don’t know of a hot item in advance, there could still be time to react and profit from a craze. But don’t sit on your hands. Hop into action as quickly as you can. If a retailer’s website is sold out, check out the possibilities of a “buy online, pick up in store” option near your location. Shop frequently, because whenever possible stores are replenishing their supplies. Play your cards right and you could profit handsomely. One man reportedly made $6,000 in a couple months after quickly jumping on the Zhu Zhu Pets craze a few years ago. Think: limited supply, limited time. If anyone could buy a $100 unlimited Olive Garden pasta pass anytime they wanted, there would be no reason someone would be willing to pay extra. Same thing goes for the “exclusive” $450 Starbucks gift card that went on sale for a brief time a couple years back. But because these and other items are sold in limited supply, for a limited time, people who are left out have a tendency to, well, feel left outâ€"and are often willing to pay well above the retail price in order to play along and get bragging rights. Strike while the iron is hot. “The biggest lesson I’ve learned about selling on eBay is to sell, sell, sell when the market is hot hot hot,” says Crawford. “Do not sit on items too long, thinking more money can be made later because when the market peaks, it will soon wind down.” Be smart about listings, prices, and service. Among the most common eBay selling mistakes are typos or vague descriptions in listings, poor (or no) photographs, the failure to answer questions, and charging too much for shipping. Get the basics right or you’ll be shooting yourself in the foot in terms of closing sales. Also, curiously, research has shown that sellers who use quirky, “precise” “Buy It Now” prices like $137 or $84 tend to yield higher sales prices than those who use big round numbers in increments of $50 or $100. Don’t get greedy. “I’ve seen it over and over again with eBay sellers making this huge mistake,” Crawford says of eBay sellers trying to wait for already high prices of Tickle Me Elmos, Beanie Babies or whatever the hot item of the moment, to go even higher. But this is an extremely risky game to play. “I feel, take the money and run because when greed sets in, empty Paypal accounts are not far behind.” Note return policies. Before maxing out your credit card and filling your garage with Star Wars merchandise, Nike Air Max LeBron sneakers, or some fancy new gadget you are convinced will be in extremely high demand, take a close look at the return policy where you’re making the purchase. If the craze you foresee doesn’t crystallize to the extent you were hoping, you could be literally stuck holding the bagâ€"lots of bags, in fact. On the other hand, if sales turn out to be a dud and the store’s return policy allows you to bring the unsold items back, there’s no harm done.

The Attitude of Success Its All in Your Head - Work It Daily

The Attitude of Success It’s All in Your Head - Work It Daily Projecting an attitude of success can start with simply working on your body language. With a strong posture and a solid handshake you are well on your way to exuding confidence. But to complete the picture, to truly project an attitude of success, the real work may need to be done in your head. Some say simply believing you are successful will make you successful. Sounds crazy, right? But that’s the premise of the law of attraction. Same with the recent phenomena, The Secret. For the more scientific minded, we can reference the placebo affect. Patients told they are being given a curing medicine actually get better despite the fact what they are given is only a sugar pill. Bottom line, the brain is the most powerful organ in the body. And how we harness that power has a bearing on the image we project, and ultimately on our success. Skip the Yips Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “A man becomes what he thinks about.” To project success you need to first quiet the negative voice inside your own head. These self-limiting beliefs can be our biggest enemy when it comes to being successful. Former professional golfer Tommy Armour coined the term “yips” to describe when athletes are so caught up in their own heads they, inexplicably, can no longer perform routine parts of their game. A relatively simple putt, for instance, or an All-Star pitcher who suddenly cannot get the ball over home plate. Although science is still studying possible neurological causes for to the “yips,” it is widely believed the main cause is psychological. To project an attitude of success, stay clear of the negative and focus on the positive. Be Half Full Studies have shown a casual link between optimistic attitudes and good health. Being optimistic can do more than extend our lives however; it can also improve our success rate in business. Sales guru Zig Ziglar says attitude is a defining factor in a person’s ability to succeed. He quotes a Harvard University study found when it comes to job offers and promotions, decisions are based only 15 percent on the candidates actual technical knowledge or skill. Eighty-five percent of the decision to hire or promote an employee is based on the individual’s attitude. View your glass as half full and you’ve won more than half the battle. Be a Copycat Imitation is the highest form of flattery. Decide what success looks like to you, and learn to imitate it. Everyone’s version will be different. If, to you, success means moving up the corporate ladder, then know what it looks like on the top rung. If success means simply getting through each crazy day in an organized and stress-free fashion, then envision that day. Keep the image of success in your head and do everything possible to look like it, behave like it, and most importantly believe that you can accomplish it. When it comes to projecting an attitude for success, children’s character Bob the Builder may be the best role model. “Can we do it?” he asks his audience each day. Without questioning the details, doubting their abilities or hesitating for one moment, his audience’s answer is always the same. “Yes we can!” You go, Bob.
