How To Make Serious Amounts of Money
Part One In my opinion no other business venture seems as inviting, or attracts as many people to it, as that of selling via mail order.
To all intents and purposes on the surface, it appears to be an easier and faster way to become rich quickly and effortlessly than almost any other method of doing business.
After all, all the people in the whole wide world are potentially customers; the great thing is you can work from the privacy and comfort of your own home; you get to set your own working hours; and best of all you have no one to answer to but yourself.
That is of course unless your like me and hen pecked and under the wife's thumb for the sake of peace and quite; in that case you have 'She Who Must Be Obeyed', to answer to but hey you can't have everything your own way now can you.
(sorry about that last bit, it's a running joke between me and my friends and I just couldn't stop myself from writing it; I tried, promise.
) Ideally, in order to succeed you should have a product of your own; something you can produce at very low cost, and sell at top price.
Electronic goods are a good thing to deal in because you don't have to carry any stock and the goods can be instantly downloaded by the customer after purchase.
However if you are buying in something, advertising and then re-selling it, in order to realise a profit then you should mark it up by at least 500%.
This is not an unreasonable mark up for mail order sales.
In fact in some cases it is possible to double or even treble your profit.
Now the thing to remember is that your product must have mass appeal, and it has to be something not readily available to your prospective customers except through you.
It is best if the product is such that you can ''carry an inventory'', without worry of spoilage, aging or any other damage for that matter.
It must be something that you can send through the post, deliver to your customer, for next to nothing in relation to your selling price.
The last thing you need, is to be worrying if your product is going to spill out every where before it reaches your customer or if it is going to go rotten or be damaged in some way.
Another thing you can do to increase your profits but at the same time keep postage costs down as far as your customers are concerned is to find a really good, reliable delivery service and negotiate a good price for posting your goods.
After all if your going to be giving that company repeat business then you should expect them to come up with a reasonable offer as regards posting of goods.
In truth the best money making product of all is a ''How To'', reports like this one.
If I was that way inclined I could make a fortune from my reports but I believe, unlike some, that in order to be successful you first must also be prepared to help others to succeed.
Please don't start to panic and think gosh I couldn't possibly write articles or anything else for that matter.
You know you don't have to be a literary genius, or even an experienced writer to write one of these reports.
