Geezer Guide Publications - Make Money Selling Almost Anything on Amazonby: Steve Lindhorst Dear Future Seller, I'll bet it wasn't all that long ago that you had never heard of the "Internet." As time went on though, you probably got yourself a computer "just for email"; and maybe keeping track of your banking. Your kids probably began running circles around you with their computer. They were jumping on and off the internet, buying and selling and even meeting new friends. Finally, you also took the plunge and bought your first item online. If you're like most people, it wasn't long before you also began thinking about selling online too. (This usually happens at the behest of a spouse, who sees a lot coming in, but not much going out.) Most of us have heard of eBay, and maybe even sold a thing or two. But did you know Amazon.com has almost as many customers as eBay? And did you know it's easy and can be extremely profitable to sell there? But Amazon is a "book site" right? Well, you can certainly sell books there - but there's much more to the story! Do you still think of Amazon as just a place to buy books? You should really take another look. Some sellers are making a killing selling a wide variety of non-media products on Amazon.Ask yourself...
A while back, I bought some books at my local thrift store. I got home, looked them up on eBay, and I was pretty disappointed. No bids. Then for some reason I checked over at Amazon. They were listed there for twice as much! I was pretty skeptical, but I thought, "what the heck, it's free to list." Yes, it's free to list your products on Amazon. You pay nothing until you have a sale. And -it only takes a minute or two to list an item.
I figured out how to list books, and within 24 hours I had my first sale - $35 for a book I paid $.50 for! The first month I sold nearly $1000 worth of books on Amazon and they were all thrift store purchases. One was a book called "Zeckendorf" a biography of a real estate tycoon. I picked it up at Goodwill for $3. It sold a month later for $239 on Amazon. Could I have made more on eBay? With an auction? Well, at the time, the last copy of Zeckendorf had sold on eBay for only $168. So Amazon was the better choice. As an old eBayer, of course the next thing I thought was, "I'll bet I could sell other stuff here." Well, turns out you can sell all kinds of things on Amazon.
Anyway I wanted to sell other things, and that's when I hit rough road... Since I was a National eBay University instructor, I am quite familiar with eBay's efforts to educate their sellers. I expected Amazon to have an education program too. No such luck. Amazon.com is like the real Amazon - a jungle. Different terminology, different layout, it was very confusing, and I've been selling online for years! Google wasn't much help either. Try doing a search for "learn Amazon" or "Amazon classes," I'm not afraid you'll find my competition. There isn't any! Sure, I found some free articles, and web pages with some information. But most were terribly out of date, some were just plain wrong, and many of the authors have no idea how to actually teach. Even Amazon's own Seller Help is all over the place. When I asked for a simple tutorial, an Amazon rep told me there is no single place to go to learn to sell on Amazon. There is now. So many potential sellers were asking how to sell on Amazon. What they needed was a straightforward, plain-English guide to the basics of Amazon. I started months of research, gathering information from Amazon and eBay forums, articles on the internet, and my own experience. I even got a lot of help from Amazon Seller Support over the phone. Oh did I mention that Amazon has phone support for their
sellers. In the book I'll show you how you can get them to call YOU at a
time YOU specify! I took all this information, and drew on my experience teaching eBay classes to create a guide that helps new sellers get started selling on Amazon. It's called: The Official Geezer Guide to Selling on Amazon.....is packed with easy to follow, step-by-step instructions to get you started. You'll also get "Geezer Tips" and advice, screenshots, explanations of terms, and a couple of video tutorials I've created to show you how to list your products on Amazon. Just follow along! If you have something to sell and some very basic computer skills you can follow my easy instructions to list and sell your items. Not sure what to sell -we even give you some advice on that.
Sincerely, Steve Lindhorst PS: I have been selling profitably on Amazon now for several years and I am going to show you absolutely everything I know -nothing is held back. And remember, every Official Geezer Guide comes with a money-back guarantee if you are not completely satisfied.
