Hi Renee,
It is a common error for new sellers to think that you can not make money selling ebooks.
It appears you missed the whole point of my coaching and my techinique of selling ebooks.
The fact is, you are watching the 95% who have no clue how to sell ebooks.
Here is your assumption:
* I see that most who sell ebooks on ebay sell for very very low prices, like 10 cents or pennies, therefore, it is not worth my time to sell ebooks.
This is why your assumption is wrong:
* Making money with ebooks has nothing to do with the ebook or your competition. Nothing whatsoever. It has everything to do with how you market them.
To give you an example. Lets say I and a competitor are selling the
same ebook. He is a novice and has no clue what he is doing. He sells it in a base ebay auction at 10 cents.
I, on the other hand, know what I am doing, and I sell it at $8 bucks.
Guess who sells more. I do.
Why do I sell more?
Several reasons:
1. The price is part of the marketing. If you put the price at 10 cents, everyone is going to think it is worthless, hence they do not buy your ebook.
2. If I put my price at $8 dollars and differentiate my ad to look like I am selling a different ebook than he is, yet on the same topic, I make my ebook look far more valuable, as I create in the mind of the buyer a value by placing the price of $8 on it.
3. If I make a killer good ad, one that is realistic, points out all of the benefits, does
not exaggerate, I will convince them that my price is correct and they will buy.
Brain Check: If I would have sold my ebook business for $5 bucks, you would have assumed it was not that good. But, because I sell it at a higher price, I created in your mind a value. Then, I backed up the value with a solid advertisement.
So, the formula goes:
Solid Price + Good Ad = Maximum Sales and Profit.
So, it absolutely does not matter if someone sells the very same ebook for 10 cents. All you do is the above, and you have changed the scenerio.
FURTHER, I teach you how to take it way way beyond this..
Lets say you follow my techniques and get an ebook selling good at $8 bucks. You are selling it in the normal, standard auction format.
I can teach you how to take it from standard auction format, to dutch category featured format.
So, instead of selling one ebook every other day, you will be selling 5 ebooks a day or possibly more.
How does it work? Basically, once you have it selling good in the standard format, you then start backing your ad with more advertising dollars. You put it at the top of the category and start testing at the top of the page.. The goal is to sell atleast 8 per auction.
Once it is selling good at the top of the page and you have done the trial and error (a bit), then you can branch off into other categories.
I have been doing this since 2001. RIGHT NOW, I have an information product (printed not electronic) that I sell in this way. I have 10 dutch category featured auctions for my 150" TV Projector
kit.
I have made about $70,000 pure profit from selling this 150" TV Projector Kit over the last 3 years.
So, I would be teaching you the method I used to get my 150" TV Projector item to make me that much money..
NOW, ask yourself, "Is it worth my time to do trial and error and follow this method of selling, if I can potentially make multiple thousands a year doing it?"
Silly question..
If interested, write back and I can explain more..
Again, this is not something anyone really knows, otherwise everyone would be doing it.. The fact is, though, only about 5% of those selling ebooks do it this way.
I am giving you the opportunity to learn this way.
REGARDING PHYSICAL NAME
BRAND PRODUCT:
You also mentioned that you wanted to know where you could get product to sell and make good profit.
Well, I can help you with this also. Places where you get 75% off the regular price..
To give an example, often, there will be PS2 (Playstation 2's) on these pallets of goods I will get.
In stores, the PS2 is about $150 USD.
Wholesale it is about $120 USD.
On ebay it will sell for about $110 USD.
I can get them for about $40 USD.
So, I can get them for about $40 USD and sell them for about $110 USD on ebay.
THESE sources are also in Australia. I can show you how I locate them. It all works the same in Australia, America, Canada, UK.
I am getting them from the Chain stores.. You know,
walmart, best buy, sams, sears, etc.. All the big stores that are located all over the place..
They are returns to those stores. They can not resell many returns for a number of reasons. So, they "liquidate" them. They liquidate them to large warehouse companies..
All you do is buy them from these "warehouse companies". I can show you how to locate them..
You have to buy pallets full at a time, though.. So you would spend atleast $500 at a time..
But, you can turn around and make over $1000 selling them all.. And, since they are name brand and were popular items in local stores, they sell easily..
ACTUALLY, I HAVE TONS OF OTHER WAYS TO SELL.
I could write pages upon pages, if I wanted.. I already have two or three other methods in my
mind, but I am not going to write forever here..
Sincerely
Tony

Hi Tony, I originally thought about going into dropshipping, but your article helped me to see that was not a good option The next option was selling ebooks. But they only make such small amounts, I can
see more work with answering emails , and ebay costs than money in the bank. I am from Tasmania Australia, so unless you can direct me to a factory direct or some great wholesalers that sell small numbers at a time , as my finances are limited at this time. I shall be asking for a refund. Regards Renee -------Original Message------- Date: 08/18/06 11:19:14 Subject: Re: ITEM #290016582216 - POWERSELLER SELLING MY EBAY EBOOK WEBSITE BUSINESS+MORE Hi
Renee, Please write to me what you are planning to do online for your business. Also indicate your interests. I make about $500 a day on ebay, everyday. I do it with not a ton of work on my part, as I have two workers who ship things out for me. The fact is, my coaching can save you months, possibly years of trial and error, wasted time, bad product, etc.. If you wanting to make some real money online, you will have a far faster shot of getting there through use of my coaching. My strategies could easily make you $50 to $200 a day right now, if you follow my direction. Tony
