However, this is generally dismissed or
explained by these same people as for only the super intelligent, the overly
technical, crazy or just plain lucky people.
I am here to tell you that
not only is most of this downright lies but you would be severely short changing
yourself and your family if you did not invest a significant portion of your
endeavours online and I am not necessarily talking about money Kids
Ken Griffey Shoes. Currently approximately 10% of all sales of goods and
services occur online and that number is growing fast.
Now you may say
well that is great but what does that mean for me and those figures are spouted
by people all the time and they sort of become a blur after a while Ken
Griffey Comfort to Max 2.5. That is true statistics these days can be
manipulated to tell any story you like but I will give you some real examples to
put this into context.
In terms of goods and services sales there is more
happening at eBay than anywhere else on the planet even if you combine store
groups together like Wal-Mart and its subsidiaries in the US or the Coles Myer
or Woolworths groups here in Australia Ken
Griffey Comfort to Max 3.5. It equates to about $1,640US sales every second
which is about US$14.
2 million in sales every day. If you break this
down further just for Australia, a car is old every 1 minutes, a DVD every 30
seconds and an item of women’s clothing every 14 seconds. Can you imagine if Big
W store sold 2,880 DVDs a day or about 6,000 items of clothing. If they could
manage that many sales they wouldn’t need to sell anything else! Currently about
53,000 Australia have eBay as either their primary or secondary form of income
and about 35,000 businesses use it as their secondary stream of revenue. In
total 20% of the entire adult population of Australia is a member of eBay which
is about 3 million people. I hope that put things into context for you and made
it is easier to visualise in your head. Contrary to what you may be thinking
this is not an article to laud eBay or even too necessarily to convince you to
start selling there. Given those massive figure, eBay sales still fits into that
10% of all sales I mentioned earlier. Remember there are huge sites like Amazon
and search engine giants like Google and Yahoo who also fit within that 10%, let
alone all the other larger, medium and smaller players. If nothing else this
should illustrate for you how massive an opportunity it is out there and that we
are really still only in its infancy even with all those impressive numbers.
Cast your mind back just 10 years ago and most of these companies I mentioned
didn’t even exist let alone the market itself.Unfortunately I don’t have enough
space here to go into extreme detail about what you can do step by step but I
will give you a brief overview and if you want more information go to . Did you
know that you can get an entire book written for you for less than a $100 which
you have full rights to sell Did you know that you can get companies like
Google, eBay and Amazon to send you cheques Did you know with an Australian site
like not only can you offer items for sale on LayBy with someone else managing
the process for you for free but you can make money when other people list items
for sale and also when you buy items Did you know you can make more money online
with no stock or payment handling of your own just selling other peoples great
products The list goes on and on and as I mentioned about all these things are
that it takes little time, little money and requires no technical knowledge at
all. The truth is that unlike real estate, share trading and business, this
requires a lot less knowledge and far less money to get started and is easier
and requires less time and effort to do anything. TILL NEXT TIME...
