I am new to blogging but thought I would share some of the pitfalls I ran into while starting up my ecomerce site as well as my flea market business.
The Idea seemed simple enough.
Start up a small business to try and make ends meet. I tried looking for wholesalers that I could buy from and sell on eBay, but they all seemed to have prices higher than those on eBay.
While looking around I found a reference to a wholesale show in Vegas. My wife and I booked a flight made reservations and off we went. (Let me just say that the hotel was booked on a coupon for free rooms and the flight was compliments of my sister.)
So off we went to the convention looking for things to sell on eBay, or flea markets, or an online store.
After we got to the show we realized we were WAY over our heads. We were looking around like deer in the headlights.
We started off by going to the jewelry show and quickly realized THAT was not going to happen. We continued on looking and looking stopping at booth after booth but buying nothing. Not knowing exactly what we were looking for in the first place didn't help. (first thing not to do my way is go into something like this without a plan) We did end up finding some fashion jewelry that we thought we might be able to sell on ebay or a flea market so we place an order.
