What Can I Sell on eBay to Make Money?

By Walter Madison

What can I sell on eBay to make money online and work from home? This is one of the most often asked questions among the huge income "wannabes".

First things first... you need to sell MANY different products to make an online income on eBay. No one product is going to make or break your business. So how do you find the best?

THOROUGH Product Research

This is one of the most reliable ways to make money online... but there are right and wrong ways to do this.

You SHOULD NOT start with the "most popular" items on eBay. This is what everybody else does... and therefore these areas have way too much competition.

Remember, the key is not finding that one "magic" product that's going to make you $10,000 a month. This is what most sellers spend their time unsuccessfully searching for.

Instead its' finding a number of products that make you $150-300 a month. Once you get one up and running, going out and find more autopilot income streams.

But how do I find what to to sell on eBay to make money?

First order offline or online wholesale catalogs-they are usually free. This could be from local or national wholesalers. Don't be too choosy here--sometimes your best products are things you've never even heard of.

Once you've compiled a HUGE list of catalogs... thumb through them and start doing your research. Pay particular attention to the most successful sellers in each product category--you can easily see this using 3rd party software like the Terapeak research tool.

What numbers should you focus on?

The medium sales price--percentage of auctions that sold--and the number that sold. Based on these figures you can determine if that niche would be worth tackling.

If you decide it is, pattern your auctions after the best sellers... but of course don't blatantly copy them. If you are exactly like them there is nothing that's going to differentiate yourself and therefore you won't make sales.

Just try and upstage them a little

If you offer a bonus they aren't offering--or undersell them by a small amount--you will get their sales. This is how to get rich on the internet.

So to answer the original question-"what can I sell on eBay to make money"? The answer is just about anything.
