Reselling Business Guidelines
- Quality Pictures (use flash, lighting, etc)
- Sell niche items. Great chance of a profit. Popular items are highly competitive & easily under cut by competitors.
- Diversify the items you sell. Markets are always changing. Don’t let hanging circumstances kill your business model.
- Buy tracking for all of your packages. It will save you money and stress in the long run when deliveries are contested.
- Allocate roughly 30% of your profits for taxes.
- Keep a receipt/Bill of sale for items you buy or sell on Craigslist.
