How to earn extra $$$ with your ebay business....

Sign up to be an assistant.

By becoming a trading assistant in your area, you can choose your hours and your own fees for your services. You never know you may be the only one in your area. Many people have heard of ebay and would like to sell a few things they have but, have no clue as to how to list, sell or some even don't know much about computers.

Start earning the extra today the sign up is free, then you just sit back and wait for your phone to ring. You can set it up so the customer brings you the merchandise, set the days and hours for drop off, use your home as a drop off place, or your place of business either way. I go to them to check the items and their expectations on prices, give them my quote on my expences and decide if the item are worth my time to list and sell. You do not have to take evryone that comes in. Try to get all of the information you can before listing an item and stick with what you know. This is a good rule to follow since you are the one to be answering the questions as they come in.

This could become a regular business for you. You can place an ad with your local newpaper as well to get the word out. You will be surprised as to how many people are looking for someone like you to help them out.

Another thought to consider is to teach someone how to list, sell, collect  their $$ and ship for a fee. Your time is worth $$ to you. Make sure you get enough to take care of your end but do not try to charge outrageous fees or you will find yourself out of business quick. Just think from the prospecting customers view. If you were in their shoes what would be a reasonable amount to pay for such a service.
