Business Computing Tips
By K&K Fainges kfainges@bigpond.net.au
Lots of people use Ebay for buying things. Some even use it as a sort of
online garage sale.
You can use it to sell your product without having a store front.
It can also be used to get a rough idea of what the market may bear for
pricing.
If you list your product a few times, and it never gets above $1, then
either there isn't a large market for it, or people don't see a lot of value
in it.
if it explodes in a flurry of bidding, well, you are on a winner.
Visit www.ebay.com
or the Australian version at www.ebay.com.au
for all the details for selling your things online.
There is a whole section for ebooks too. Check out some ideas for how to
publish your own book using ebay and paypal on http://shayton.net/10_steps_to_self.htm
