Q: I want to start an online business Since I don't know anything about ecommerce and building websites and such, I'm thinking about starting out selling products on eBay, then pay someone to build a website for me once the money starts coming in The big question is: what is the hot product to sell on eBay to make money fast?

-- Bob D

A: While it's true that selling products on eBay can be a quick, low cost way to launch an online business, following the herd by selling the "hot product" of the moment, is not a great idea To the contrary, chances are you will be stomped in the ground by the herd and left lying in the dust with your unsold inventory in hand

We talked about starting a profitable eBay business in a previous column and the advice I dispensed then still applies today

The most successful eBay sellers are those who understand that success on eBay relies on many of the same factors as success in a brick and mortar business

Smart sellers research the marketplace and the competition to determine the salability and profitability of the product
Smart sellers test the market with one or two before committing to a product line and tying up their cash reserves in inventory that may never sell T8 LED Tube.
Smart sellers adjust their product offerings until they find a product or product line that sells consistently
The last point is perhaps the most important Long term eBay success does not come from "one off" sales The key to real eBay success is to find a product that sells well and sell that product over and over and over again

I asked Timothy Mina, author of the new book, The Online Auction Expert's Bible To Selling on eBay, his thoughts on launching a successful eBay business

Why is eBay so attractive to entrepreneurs?

"With an eBay business, you set your own hours and set your own goals," Mina said "You can work as much or as little as you want and whenever you want Many sellers supplement their income by selling on eBay and many others have turned it into a full time business"

Mina cites the following reasons for eBay's growing popularity among entrepreneurs who want to start an online business:

You can start up quickly and don't need special skills
There is very little risk and investment required to get started
The marketplace is huge There are millions of potential customers waiting to buy what you're selling, 24 hours a day, with the click of a button
No stress, no boss Yes, there is work involved, but the work can be done at your own pace You are your own boss and you set your own schedule
Most importantly, you can follow your passion and do something you love If you sell something you enjoy selling, online auctions aren't just profitable, they're fun and exciting, too
Why It's Critical To Find Your Niche

Mina recommends creating your eBay business with niche items According to Mina, the benefits of targeting a specific niche market include:

If you are going to rely on eBay as your primary source of income, it is essential that you find your niche If the goal of your eBay business is to earn enough money in your spare time to make your car payment every month, it is less important, but still highly recommended Wholesale Leather Handbags.
If you find a profitable niche, you will become a certified guru of the items you sell you will ideally be the only one on eBay offering the products
Your expertise will make it ten times as easy to spot bargains when you're shopping for products to resell Bargains might be all around you, but if you don't know anything about what you're selling, you won't know how to spot bargains that are right in front of you
You will find different ways to add personal value to your products Replica Handbags. These low cost add-ons or unique twists to your products will drastically increase your sales and profits by making your items unique and desirable
You will have little or no competition from other sellers, so you can corner your niche market
By dealing with the same type of customer over a long period of time you will get to intimately understand the mindset of your target customer and what your customer wants This will help you sell your products better and allow you to market your products in ways others haven't thought of
You will be knowledgeable and enthusiastic about what you sell, and you will be attentive to your customer's desires This results in satisfied customers, name recognition, and a lot of repeat business
You're going to find something you're passionate about and specialize in it If you love what you're doing, you have a much greater chance of sticking to it and loving it

How do you find your niche?

So how do you find your niche? Mina recommends doing an inventory of your hobbies and interests to help you identify a niche you would enjoy working in

Ask yourself:

What are you passionate about?
What do you collect?
What do you like to read about?
What do you do in your spare time?
So you have a favorite pastime?
What was your major in college?
What jobs have you had?
Are there any other fields in which you have a great amount of knowledge?
What clubs do you belong to?
Mina also recommends that you spend time on eBay studying the category listings This may give you additional ideas for hobbies you can turn into an eBay business Once you have defined your hobbies or interests, brainstorm how you can turn them into a business

How can you turn your expertise into a product?
How can you add value to current products related to your interest?
What product can you sell that may be one of a kind and have little or no competition?
Can you think of novel ideas that people who share your passion would love?
Is there anything related to your hobby that you can create yourself? An ebook or a how to, perhaps? About the author:

Organising to exhibit at an exhibition can be more than simply renting a stand and then turning up on the day. There are many things you need to consider including:
- Ensuring that your staff members are well trained and prepared for the show
- Your staff have the correct and appropriate uniforms
- You have set sales goals for the event
- Your stand is in a good spot
- The exhibition stand is well designed and appropriate to the specific show
- You have invited anyone necessary.

You need ALSO to think about things such as design, installation, providing water and flowers on your stand, installing AV systems, installing Plasma screens, internet connections, stand breakdown and storage. There is in other words, a lot to think about if you are to maximise the benefits you seek to gain at an exhibition. Exhibiting is not the cheapest form of marketing but face-to-face marketing at exhibitions, where trade and the public may be present, can be one of the most effective. Getting everything right is thus essential.

Even thinking of things such as where the power sockets are located, how many of them are available (very important if you are doing a presentation on your laptop and the laptop battery dies). There are many things to think about and having held a few exhibitions myself, I would be inclined to recommend getting an experienced team to work with. You can do a search on the Internet to find a company who specialise in Exhibition logistics and planning. Clip Display Ltd at clipdisplay.com are one such company.

The trick is to be well organized, well prepared and to plan well enough in advance. If you so choose, you may also want to rid yourself of the stress involved with the logistics of setting up your exhibition stand, you can then put more effort into the main purpose of exhibiting; and focus on sales and on the direct marketing sales opportunities.

Has this ever happened to you?

You spend hours and hours working on a new process. You dot all the "I"s cross all the "T"s and then some how you still ended up doing it the same ole' way.

You go to a fantastic seminar, you are all pumped up and excited, but then somehow all the stuff you learned just sits on your desk.

Or how about this one. You finally read that book that's been sitting on your nightstand, it had great ideas in it and you see how you could do things a little bit differently to make some more cash. But time goes by, the book ends up on the shelf and you never implement any of those great ideas.

It's like taking the time to research, test drive and buy a new car. Then parking that expensive, shinny new car in the garage and driving the old one.

Don't leave your shinny new process in the garage to collect dust.

Here is a step-by-step system to get you implementing all your hard work.

Step 1: What's in your way?
Determine what resistance there might be before you get started. Are you a procrastinator? Do you need a new web guy? Did you just set up a schedule where your best work needs happen when you're taking your kids to school? Set yourself up for success by dealing with barriers and issues before you get started.

Step 2: Commit to Implement
It takes 21 days to form a habit. So commit to following your new process or plan for 21 days. Come on, that's only 3 weeks. You can do anything for 3 weeks, right?

Step 3: The Proper Training
Give yourself or anyone working with you the proper training they need to in order to follow your process. Everyone (including you) should have all the tools they need and fully understand what needs to be done.

Step 4: Find a Place
Decide where you are going to keep your new process or plan. Do you have a book that you can keep next to you? I am a visual person so I physically tape a new process to the wall in front of me so I always see it. I had one client that saved her new process as her screen saver.

Step 5: Follow the Bouncing Boxes
Actually follow your plan or process. How do you know if it's working if you don't actually do it? Remember you committed to implement.

Step 6: Keep Track of What's Working - And What's Not
As you go along, make notes and keep records of things that you could streamline, delegate out or are not running as smoothly as you would like. You'll use these notes later.

Step 7: Version 2
At the end of 21 days, go through those notes you've been making. Put your consultant's hat on and see if there is anything that will make your process even better. Incorporate those changes into your process and voila, version 2.

Step 8: Count down to Launch
Pick a date when version 2 goes into action. On that date, start the implementation process over again and keep that ball rolling.

Now get out those new processes and start implementing.

Reverse marketing sounds like something complicated, one of those inexplicable concepts of internet marketing that are vague, and difficult to grasp at times Reverse marketing is one of the more controversial of the marketing techniques out there in the internet marketing world Yves Saint Laurent Shoes. While some marketers swear by it, others feel exactly the opposite, dubbing reverse marketing as nothing more than another failed marketing ploy

In all actuality, reverse marketing is a hidden gem; if you don't know how to carry it out effectively it may be rather difficult for you to benefit from it but if you play your cards right chances are that you will be able to reap more benefits from this marketing ploy than you ever thought possible

At this point, you are probably wondering, 'what exactly is reverse marketing?' While it can seem complicated, it is rather simple It is a marketing strategy that is based on the principle of the law of attraction It has to do with having customers look for you, instead of you looking for the customers It seems that a great deal of marketing has to do with seeking out customers to give you business, so imagine what it would be like if customers came to you instead This is what reverse marketing is all about, and why it has the potential to be such a hot commodity

The most common method of reverse marketing is probably something that you have seen a lot of ghd flat iron. Yves Saint Laurent Shoes. If you sell gardening supplies on your website and you have a website that sells all of the different types of supplies, gloves, gardening seeds and other things on that site you want customers to be able to find your site so that they can place orders for your items that fit their needs An example of reverse marketing in this instance would be to have something else on there like a 'free bonus' of sorts, like an e-zine or an e-book all about how to grow the best garden from home When customers are looking for gardening supplies on Google, they will find your site eventually (if they do the right searching) They will read your e-book or e-zine and come to you for business because you have provided them with such a useful 'bonus' incentive

Reverse marketing is not about fluff; it is not about having something on there just to get the customers to your site It is about providing them with a useful product or service so that they can have some respect for you and your business and may even (hopefully) look up to you as an expert in that field That is the best way to attract a good, solid customer base of people who believe in you and what you have to offer without having to be convinced

Unfortunately, reverse marketing has been written off by many internet marketers as something that has no worth or value these days After the principle of the law of attraction first hit the internet waves, people were swearing by this principle but that has left reverse marketing as a hidden gem for people like yourself to be able to reap the benefits Those who dispute the validity of reverse marketing will just have to find other ways of finding customers, while you sit back and watch your customers come to you About the author:
