Never in a million years did I think I would be an infopreneur. My passion is computer programming and I still do alot of it. However, three years ago, after watching an infomercial by Dave Espino late one night, I called and bought his eBay package. It started me down a path where I was selling stuff around my home and dropshipping on eBay. The success of selling caused me to want to see more profit. Besides, the main reason I started was to start paying off our mortgage. When that dream became reality, I started dreaming of buying land and building a new home for my large family of 7.
What I soon realized was that eBay was a world unto itself. The stuff being sold on it was very diverse. From very bizarre to very practical. I also started seeing that there was tremendous potential to buy items at very low prices and then resell them to huge profit. I was seeing some of the items I sold profit 500%. But, it was taking more of my time away from my family than I wanted.
I kept refining the approach I took in buying and reselling. Eventually, I found the right tools that would search out the right items and bid on them while I was away from the computer. I would log into our home PC at night to see how things were going. It was becoming all automated. I had it down to a well oiled machine.
I then heard that I could import from China at low prices. At first, I thought I'd need thousands of dollars and hassle with customs. However, I found companies that would deal with home based businesses like me for as little as $300. And they even delivered the items to my front door. I didn't have to deal with custom forms, taxes or fees. My revenue kept climbing and climbing.
In April of 2007, my family and I realized a dream of ours that we never thought would happen. We became debt-free! My wife homeschools our kids so we are flexible in what they learn. We started incorporating the lessons I learned into their curriculum. Now, our next BIG DREAM is to buy acreage and build a new home. We believe we can do that without going into debt. So, we as a family, are watching our nest egg grow. And it's all because of things I've learned from selling on eBay.
Toward the latter part of 2006, I started seeing another way of making money. I saw folks selling their own electronic books. I knew I had something to tell the world. So, I wrote my first one called Resell For Profit. It is based on what I learned from day one to today on buying low and reselling high on eBay. The next one I am writing is called Debt Free With Five Kids. And it is about our journey as a family in how we got out of debt. I have another one in the works called Import For Profit. It will be about how the home business folks like ourselves can buy things from overseas for affordable prices.
Making money online is not very difficult. It just takes the right tools and know-how. One of my missions in life is to teach others what I have learned. It grieves me to see people struggling financially. It causes problems in marriages and relationships. It ought not to be that way.
God Bless,
