The only problem....

Post planes 31/07/2007 02:50

The only problem is you are selling very low profit items. So you have to do incredibly high volume.

Right now hes doing about 10-15 sales a day at an average of 2$ minus fees. So hes clearing about 1.65 a sale.

The good news is this is hands off. So once your up and running you don't have to do much.

The bad news is everyone and their mother is going to be doing this and saturate the market.

In my opinion this is a no go.

You need to also look at the big picture in that you are creating a customer database which you can resell products to over and over again.

Its not everyone's cup of tea but it can be a very profitable and automated process.

Admin seems to have deleted my detailed response to this review so I will just state here that I won't be taking up this offer and members can draw their own conclusions.

Actually what happens is that the 90 day powerseller package comes with resell rights.
It's a brandable item..

What you do when you buy the item is that you brand it with your name and an ID number. When you resell that package you basically make money from the "backend" sales it generates from the creators website..

Within the 90 day package it has a couple of links advertising a "report" and when you click on that those links, it takes you to the original creator's website, where hopefully they will buy additional products..Since you have branded the package you bought, you automatically receive 50% of any sells from that visitor...Most of the products that I have seen on the site are about $39-49. Some are as much as $97 (and this is the one that is most purchased).So most people are making about $48 per sale...
So this is where you actually make your money. Plus it's all automated so all you actually have to do is list the powerseller package on ebay for a couple of bucks and if someone you sell it to makes a purchase off of the creator's site, 50% of the sale goes directly into your paypal account....

If you take a look at alot of the info packages on ebay you will see the powerseller package being sold very cheaply or even given away for free. this is because they are making money from the backend sales that it's generating from the creator's website..

In addition to the money that you make from the backend sales,, you also have the opportunity to capture the email addy's from the people that you sell the package to. This enables you to quickly build a contact and client list to promote your future products too..

Keep in mind that a very very large percentage of internet buyers are impluse buyers and most often will make a second purchase if offered to them once they have made the first purchase..

That why backend selling is so successful, you offer them a free or low cost item and while they are "hot for the buy" you offer them a higher cost item also..Plus,, people who have purchased from you previously are more likely to purchase from you again, this is where your "list" can make you money...

I greatly dislike the selling of money making opps. by offering the money making opp. as what you make money on.

It is a take on multi-level marketing which has as a hold been a very shaky business plan.

This is why ML is illegal in many places. Because it is a ruse in many forms.

I am new here, and have liked much of what I have seen. There is no need in my opinion to start trying to sneak in the side door.

Let's keep to straight businesses. "admin" Really, there is no need to bring this opp. in here. Even if it is legit its just to scammy in appearance.

If I saw this ad on my surfing time I would immediately chalk it up as a scam

Thanks for your opinion and input. Its good to hear and get all view points. We are just presenting it to all members as we had alot of people asking about it since selling eBooks has become so big on eBay.

We put it in here so people can comment/criticize/praise etc... on it and then people can draw their own conclusions. No smokescreens :)

I would like to buy e-books..but I need to know what are the topics or subject areas covered.A good mix of IT,Business,Economic,Finances,Personal Improvement,Cookery,Religion,Enginering etc......will be more benefitial than e-books telling you on how you can do this and that on e-bay....which everyone is now selling on e-bay.

If you have a good collection of e-books and you want to sell then you can contact me on ** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members** thanks very serious

If you do a search on ebay or on the web for that matter, you will find a plentiful supply of ebooks about any of those topics you mention above..

You can pretty much find ebooks about any subject matter that you can think of..Too, most of the time if you find a good seller,( that is one who is selling a broad catagory of ebooks), alot of times they will have an offer for their entire library for a very small price..(with resell rights)..Probably a good place to look on ebay will be the catagory: everything else>infromational products>other..

Ok this is probably a stupid question but here it goes! Do you have to have your own website to do this or can you list the item on ebay and direct the customer to the creators website to download?
