The Garage Sale Plan – Your Budget
Okay… let’s talk a little bit about budget for hitting those garage sales.
Your budget will really come down to the market you are in… and since we are focusing on children’s items – that is going to be the point of reference for this weeks topic of budgeting for yard sales.
I usually bring only $80-100 with me when I am hitting yardsales. This doesn’t mean I don’t stop for more – but, I’ve been able to do fine with around a hundred bucks. I like to break it down so that it isn’t all $20′s… it helps the seller as well because they aren’t having to give me change if I find a hot Blue’s Clues notepad for twenty five cents.
Have you taken a breather from your business recently?
I’m very aware that I haven’t posted in the past 3-4 months… and it isn’t because I haven’t had some great things that I’ve wanted to share with you… it’s just that sometimes life takes priority – know what I mean?
We are kidding ourselves if we think that we can plug along day after day… week after week… month after month… and not need a break from our work or businesses. It’s GOOD to take a breather — to step away for a while… to focus on other things… and come back to business later. Usually this break allows for a new perspective on how you do business. And, most likely, you will return with a clear mind and a new motivation!
For some reason, however, I don’t think I need to convince you that taking a breather from your business is a good idea every once and a while… that’s not the problem.
The problem is… and I can almost hear many of you thinking it now…
“How am I suppose to survive in this economy if I step away for a month or two… or even a week?”
Ahhh… that is a great question
And, the internet has all the answers… We live in an amazing information and technology age. Learning to use this technology to automate your business is likely one of the most important things you could be doing right now. This is a tough one for Ebay sellers to grasp – usually, the concept is easy to understand… who can argue against creating automated revenue streams? Sounds like a dream! But, how do you apply this strategy to selling on eBay?
Talk about a loaded question! There are so many ways – really, all it takes is an open mind and a bit of creativity.
