I sell on EBay. I started selling tropical fruit, nut, spice and citrus trees this spring. I made Power Seller within three months. I sell far more there then I do at my web site, however there are tricks and angles that help you make more because everyone on EBay is looking for a deal.

I did purchase a few E-books, I’m always the first buy information and save time. There were some good ideas but to be honest with you they were lame and full of up selling. They were also poorly complied and out dated.

I’m happy to help him if he’ll email me info(at)tamstrees.com

The best advantage that I found with EBay is building traffic and my brand. If you’re clever you can pull traffic without violating EBays rules. So even though I make less on the initial sale chances are that I’ll sell to that same person full retail or add on products. People look at your feed back and that alone is worth its weight in gold. Because of this I’ve had businesses contacting with some great offers.

There are people that sell for you on EBay but you have to really research someone who is capable of selling the product you have. As with any business, Customer Service is the key to repeat business and many of these people are just too busy.

My friends thought I lost my mind when I told them I wanted to sell trees. I was looking to do something else and I already garden and grow tropical trees. I decided to go with something I know and there’s no doubt there’s money in trees/plants/nursery business.

This is a shot in the dark but I know that a lot of you live in Florida. I’m signing deals now with catalogue companies to ship citrus trees directly to their customers. The problem is inventory. There isn’t enough of the type of trees I want to carry; dwarf and specialty types. These are shipped all over the US. Anyhow, if any of you know someone in citrus, groves, etc. who would like to pick up the slack on this there’s a nice chunk of money involved.

Thanks,
