What It's About
Today's caller is in search of the perfect reselling product.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1796
Reselling is a simple business, and it’s easy enough to find something to sell once. Anyone can do it today. But for a real moneymaker, you need a source of products you can go to over and over. Today’s listener wonders: where is it??"Hey Chris, this is Tina from Boulder and I started listening to the show after reading The Money Tree. I've been experimenting with reselling, and it's fun. Last month I made a profit of $700 just from visiting thrift stores and an estate sale. But I also don't see it expanding much if I keep doing it this way. I'm constantly selling one-off items. It would be much better to sell the same items over and over—but the problem is, I don't know what those would be or where to find them. Aside from what I've been doing (the thrift stores, yard sales, and flea markets), how can I find products I could resell over and over? Thanks for your help."Listen to today's episode to learn more...
