Seven Online Businesses You Can Start Now - Part One
Writen by Mark KennyThe internet has revolutised the way most people live, & it can also make it easy for anyone to launch your own business. Almost anyone can now start selling online within hours without the need for a merchant accounts, business plans or mountains of paperwork. In this series of articles I've put together my top seven ways to cash in online.
1) eBay & online actions
Everyones heard of eBay! Online auctions are huge & best of all simple to use when you get started. So, eBay introduces a wide range of opportunities to make an additional income from the internet. One of the easiest methods of profiting from eBay is acting as a Trading Assistant.
A Trading Assistant is simply an eBayer who sells other peoples items in exchange for a fee & a commission. The owner of the item will send the item to the eBay Trading Assistant, who then takes care of all the selling process including photographing, describing, listing & shipping the item to it's new owner after the auction is finished.
Any costs associated with selling the item are reclaimed & the Trading Assistant normally charges at least 25% of the final items auction price as well. If you sell an item for ฃ100, your commission will be ฃ25 plus eBay fees.
The quickest way to set yourself up as an eBay Trading Assistant is to register with eBay which is free & set yourself up a website so customers can communicate with you. Trading-Web-Solutions.com offers a website purely for this service.
Start with friends & family, collegues at work - after all everyones got stuff lying around the garage that they keep meaning to get rid off or sell. To start with you could offer to sell it on a no-sale, no-fee basis to get people talking about your business & the services you offer.
