About this episode
Mike Wilson wasn’t done being an entrepreneur when he retired after 30 years owning a retail furniture store. Now, he’s doing the same thing but from his home, bringing in a revenue of $30,000-$35,000 a month selling on eBay, and he shares his tips for success in this interview.
One of the great things about eBay selling as a business is its low barrier to entry. You can even get started by selling things you already have around your house, and Mike invested just $1,000 to build Golden State Picker. He’ll explain how he spent that investment to grow the business and where he finds the items he sells today, along with helpful tips on how to decide how much to sell them for and how to attract customers to your online store.
Just like in any business, keeping costs low can help your revenue soar as an eBay seller. Mike will share how he finds items for dirt cheap, or sometimes even free, to maximize his profits. If you’ve ever wondered how to start selling on eBay, you’ll get a lot of your questions answered in this interview!
