Dear Fellow Entrepreneur

You are ready to start your own business there is just one problem
you know nothing about starting a business and becoming an
entrepreneur cost a small fortune. Well that isn't necessarily true.
You will likely get your startup money from selling things around the
house on ebay and reinvesting that money in more merchandise to
sell. You probably have most of the equipment at home right now .
High speed Internet connection, computer, all in one printer, copier,
scanner and fax. As for the risk of failing don't quit your job.

looking to start your own closeout and liquidation business. Many
people are currently selling the information contained in this website.

and several big companies are built on this very idea. I have spent
many thousands of dollars learning the hard way so you do not have
to. Find your passion and build it into a business in your spare time.

New Years goals are great, but success requires a plan. Where we
fall short is by not taking the time to think about how we are going to
accomplish our goals. We have provided a simple questionnaire to
print  and use as a guideline on where to begin the planning.
Success is no accident Check out our simple questionnaire.
Remember to plan your work and work your plan to success. Begin
by listing the steps needed to reach the goal. Start gradually and be
realistic. Consider getting help through
SCORE to help serve as a
mentor and coach.
What to sell is easy. Pick an area of interest, the liquidation and
surplus inventory business is so large it could be almost anything.
Husband and wife team could even sell different surplus or
liquidation merchandise. We can point you in the right direction but
the one thing we can not do is give you the desire and motivation. It
is critical for that reason to pick an area to specialize in that is
interesting to you. With that said remember that if you want to sell
products to people,
you need to find out what people are buying. Do
some homework before buying anything and see what is selling first.

Expand your customer base by using faxes to businesses that are
out of state. No taking people to lunch and less wasted time.  Start
small part time selling on
ebay! and grow at your own pace using the
methods described here to expand to different income streams. Go
slow and do not spend any money that is not expected to make you
money.

Consider other methods of generating cash also such as taking
excess inventory to flea markets or auctions. You won't get rich but it
will help to pay the bills while you are growing your business and it
keeps the inventory turning which in turn will get you better deals
from your suppliers.

Visit the facility and personally inspect the merchandise before
purchasing anything. Also start with no larger than a pallet on your
first purchase. NEVER purchase a truck load on your first
several
purchases. Salvage is another name for junk, you will not be in
business long if you do not inspect your loads prior to buying.
Always ask what percentage of the load is throw away.
DO NOT
BUY BLIND PURCHASES.

You may notice that the shipment has a FOB (origination) other than
where the company is based Such as "freight on board" in Florida
and the company is in Texas . Buy only from those Surplus dealers
who own what they sell.

Do Not use wire transfer. With a credit card you will have about
30 days till you get your bill. Most credit card companies these days
offer you buyer protection. You also have about 60 days to protest a
charge, should you be unhappy with your purchase. If someone
sells you junk you can petition your credit card company to do a
charge back.

Above all else remember to build a liquidation and surplus
merchandise business you will be dealing with repeat customers and
suppliers over and over again so integrity is a must. Let the
merchandise sell itself do not use high pressure sales tactics.
Identify your customers and keep prices low.

Stay extremely focused don't get side tracked into non money
making time consuming projects, keep it simple. Finding liquidation
merchandise is the easy part.
Developing buyers for the
merchandise will consume most of your time.
