Where Can I Sell Online....Let's Start with the "A"s

As a longtime online seller, I have stuck with the "Top 3" Selling Sites:
Amazon, eBay and Craig's List.

This post is going to cover sites that begin with the letter A.

Amazon is the biggest site for sellers. Amazon sells it's own stuff and also allows us
regular people sell stuff too. On top of that they allow "professional sellers" to send stuff
into Amazon's warehouses, also known as Fulfilled by Amazon or FBA for short.

What regular people don't realize, anyone can sell on Amazon (if you are already an Amazon buyer).
Go to almost any item that you are searching for and look below the "Other Sellers" below the BUY BOX and you will see a little button "Have One to Sell? Sell on Amazon". By clicking that button you can list the exact item on Amazon. The "catch" is that if it sells, you will be doing the shipping.
Many people are not prepared for that part, so I advise caution, if that's new to you.

If you are already a shipper, like eBay sellers are, then why not try it and see how it goes. It must be NEW and undamaged or you will likely put your selling account in danger. You can set the price to compete with other sellers and it's possible to make some extra money. Another warning is that the fees on Amazon can be high, but it costs nothing to list!

I suggest trying it with books in great condition, or CD's in great condition. Match what you have to the selling description EXACTLY and you will be golden!

Once you start selling more than forty items in one month's time, then it would be good to try FBA. More on that in a future blog. Check back!
