How EBay PowerSellers Source Products – A PowerSeller Shares His Secrets
If you want to know how to succeed at something, its a good idea to talk to someone who already has. Renowned eBay PowerSeller Skip McGrath offers some helpful insights on how you can find product sources for your online business. Once youve determined what youre selling where do you go to get the goods?
Sourcing with a Pro
According to McGrath, one of the best sources for products is local distributors because theyre easy to find. Go to http://smartpages.com and you can search by type. Just enter the word wholesale and your zip code and youll get a list of manufacturers and wholesalers within 100 miles of that zip code. And under the company name, youll see the kind of products they carry.
For traditional wholesale suppliers, like gift and merchandise manufacturers and overstock distributors, McGrath recommends several online sources:
http://Liquidxs.com helps you find surplus branded merchandise and collectibles
http://Liquidation.com sells goods by the pallet load
http://SurplusSourcing.com offers closeout items at steep discounts
