Have you ever come across a product that really caught your eye that you have never seen online
before?
If you have and you still know where to find it, why not consider trying to market it online? There
are really countless ways of doing this, depending on the nature of the product and where you get
hold of it from, but in general if you come across something that hasn't really taken off online yet
you have a great chance of beating everyone else to the punch.
Becoming a sales agent usually means you get a percentage from every sale you make, so the way
to approach this opportunity depends on how many products you can get access to. Some
businesses allow you to join as a sales agent and sell a range of products, in which case you could
set up a website (with their agreement of course) promoting all of them in turn. You would then
receive orders via your site and process them via your supplier directly.
It does depend a lot on how you get hold of the product or products in the first place though. Some
businesses may agree to let you promote their product on a sale or return basis, or alternatively you
may have to buy a quantity of the product first and take a chance on whether it would sell well
online or not.
Whichever way you approach this opportunity, it's clear that you should get stuck into some
research before you agree to anything. Find out as much about the product as you can - who it
would appeal to, what price it retails for, and how much your profit margin would be on each unit.
It's easy to get caught up in the excitement of finding a product that you love and you think you
could make money with, but you need to be certain that a lot of other people will like it just as
much as well! By finding out as much as you can in the first place you stand a better chance of
making a good profit.
If you haven't seen any particular
product which grabs your interest the best place to start looking -
ironically - is online. Search for companies that have offline sales
agents already and think about
approaching the best ones (the ones that appeal to you the
most) with your proposition. As hard as
it may be to believe there are still some businesses that
don't have any kind of online presence at all - and you could be just
what they are looking for.
One final point - you should try looking in your local area to see what businesses are there, before
you look any further afield. Quite often they will be the ones who haven't got online yet.
