Top 5 New Year's
Resolutions
for Product Sourcing
Hi, this is Chris Malta, CEO of WorldwideBrands.com.
I want to wish you a happy,
prosperous and of course, PROFITABLE New Year from myself and
everyone here at the world's premiere product sourcing company!
Since we're talking about the New Year, let's talk for a minute
about New Year's resolutions. We've put together the Top Five
New Year's resolutions for your personal success this year, and
it's important to your online business that I share them with
you. So. . .
Resolution # 1) Lose that extra weight!
Most people who sell online don't even realize it, but end up
dragging around a lot of extra dead weight in the form of FAKE
WHOLESALE SUPPLIERS. If you buy stuff at "wholesale" from a
supplier that you found in the search engines, or one of the
huge number of junk wholesale directories that you find at the
TOP of the search engines, you have about a 70% chance that
you're paying too much for your products. Ever notice your
competition selling products online for less than you PAY for
them? If so, you're probably hauling around a few hundred pounds
of useless wholesale middlemen.
There's a whole INDUSTRY of bottom-feeders out there who PRETEND
to be wholesalers, but they're NOT. They get IN BETWEEN you and
the REAL wholesalers, ruin your profit margin, and couldn't care
less whether you succeed or fail. So, start the New Year right.
CHECK OUT YOUR SUPPLIERS. Ask yourself these questions:
1. Does my supplier
have an actual warehouse full of products, or are they shipped
from somewhere else?
2. Is my supplier a FACTORY AUTHORIZED wholesaler of the
products they're selling me?
3. Do I have my OWN direct sales rep at my wholesale
supplier?
4. Does my supplier focus on one real product line, or are
they middlemen who sell many different kinds of products under
one roof?
Really learn who your suppliers are while you're starting the
New Year. You may find they're not who you thought they were.
Don't drag those lost profits and dead weight into 2008!
Resolution # 2) Explore New Possibilities!
The New Year is all about new possibilities. Are you getting
your products from Drop Shippers? Light Bulk Wholesalers? Volume
Wholesalers? Liquidators? The online sellers who make the most
money always use a COMBINATION of these methods to source
products to sell. For example, test a product with no risk using
drop shippers. When you find one that sells well, increase your
profits by buying them in Light Bulk Quantities. As you build
your sales, increase your profits even more by getting those
products in larger volume. Always remember that you can use
Liquidated goods as low-cost incentives to attract people to
your store or auctions, then show them the products you REALLY
want to sell. Explore new possibilities and skyrocket your
profits by COMBINING your product sourcing methods in 2008!
Resolution # 3) Stop procrastinating!
They say that you should never put off until tomorrow what you
can do today. That saying especially applies to your Ebiz! Right
now, at the beginning of the year, you should be devoting some
of your time to thinking about what you're going to sell or how
you're going to promote your existing products in the Spring. In
the Springtime, think about how you're going to handle your
Summer business. In late June and early July, think about Fall,
but also start thinking about the 2008 Holiday Season! That's
what the big companies do, and that's what the best selling Ebiz
owners do. When you have even a basic plan ready for each
Season, you have more business during those seasons, and earn
more money.
Resolution # 4) Make a Difference!
You can make a real difference in your Ebiz in 2008 by applying
a little Market Research. That simply means finding out which
products sell well and which ones don't. Successful Ebiz owners
are NEVER "married" to a single line of products. Your business,
whether online or off, is never about selling what you WANT to
sell. It's about selling what PEOPLE ARE BUYING. That's how you
make the most money. Start off 2008 by learning about what
people WANT, and sell it to them!
Resolution # 5) Take Action!
They say there's no time like the present. Even better, there's
no time like the start of a New Year to spring into action and
make this the best financial year you ever had! We've talked
about getting rid of dead-weight middlemen and finding REAL
wholesalers to work with. We've talked about increasing your
profits by combining your sourcing methods, thinking ahead, and
learning about market research. I guarantee that if you do these
things NOW, you'll have a better and more prosperous year in
'08.
The ONLY way to do all these things at once is through
OneSource, the world's LEADING product sourcing tool. So don't
procrastinate! Take action and start the New Year right TODAY!
