Chapter 7: Summary and Takeaways


  • The best product source is local, and one that nobody else has access to. Small, local manufacturers have the potential for earning you the highest profits.
  • If you don’t have any money to buy inventory and get started, look into drop shipping as a potential product source.
  • If you already have a thriving business but want to expand into other markets, consider using drop shipping as a low risk method of testing the waters.
  • Consumer electronics is one of the most cut throat and competitive categories. Avoid it unless you are ready to go to war!
  • Attend wholesale trade shows to find new wholesale suppliers.
  • eBooks and other digital media have the lowest (virtually non-existent) production costs, and garner the highest gross profits. To learn more about creating an eBook, visit www.powersellerpros.com/ebooks
