What It's About
Today's caller wants to know if they're hearing the right potential reselling headphones.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1570
Welcome to a new week! This listener has gone all-in with reselling headphones, and is making a good profit! Should they focus on this category and try to scale, *or* use what they’ve learned to enter other categories?"Hi Chris this is Kelly from Detroit. I started reselling during the pandemic and have hit on a speciality item: headphones. I learned all about the various models, from Bose to Sony to the new Apple Airpods Max that cost way too much money. Believe it or not, even though those are really new, there's already an active reseller market for them! I'm doing pretty well, bringing in around $1,500 a month in profit, but now it's decision time: do I keep doing this (and potentially do it better, with more inventory), or do I take what I've learned and start selling items in other categories? I can see arguments both ways, so I know there are pros and cons ... but if you had to choose, which is better?"Listen to today's episode to learn more...
