[photopress:rm_logo.gif,full,alignleft]I have been an eBay Powerseller since 2002. Like many other eBay Powersellers, I have so many stories about eBay and eBay customers. Many of you are tired of hearing these stories, but let me tell it again, eBay used to be so much profitable and fun. Just like any other company which grows too fast, eBay has lost some of the main points in its business model. They started caring less about the problems of the sellers (actually their customers). They have become more and more interested in increasing their quarterly profits.

This path has helped many eBay sellers to start their own websites, and sell through their own sites. By making international sellers job easier to sell at eBay USA, it has become almost impossible to compete for small home based US sellers. But we are talking about selling retail on eBay. I have also written about ebay affiliate marketing before.

I will talk about a different business model for eBay selling. Since eBay has become so big, and there are so many success stories out there, now so many people try to sell on eBay. But they have no clue how to find the real sources to buy. eBay has created a new platform called eBay Reseller Marketplace. You can sell wholesale direct to eBay Powersellers.

What are the advantages of eBay Reseller Marketplace?

  • All the prospective customers are current powersellers (pre-qualified).
  • You can make money without spending any money from your pocket (I’ll get into this little later).
  • Your fees will be much less compared to regular eBay fees.
  • You don’t have to deal with many retail customers, and make small profit. You can have large profits per month with dealing a few wholesale customers.
  • If you keep your promise, and if your customers like your products, you will be having returning customers. Because they will want to buy more to resell retail.

[photopress:ebay_affiliate_site.jpg,full,alignright]eBay has been an increasing revenue source for many home based and small businesses. If you have never tried to make money with an eBay affiliate site get prepared to learn some insights. I’ll walk you through how to create a product niche website which generates eBay affiliate sales, and creates a longrun income stream for you.

As a longtime gold level powerseller on eBay, I may call myself an eBay expert. I have helped many beginners to start their eBay businesses successfully. With eBay’s expansion into international markets, everyday it’s becoming harder to make a profitable eBay business. Even some manufacturers are selling on eBay and shipping direct from their factories (how could you compete with that?). If you are a true entrepreneur, you will find a way to increase your sales in any situations. Here’s my motto for eBay success:

If you can’t beat the competition, help them to generate more sales.
