Quick Question.

Does anyone know of any items that are sold pretty cheap in large quantities? And which companies sell these? Do you all have any good business ideas? Maybe for providing a service or goods to a consumer niche out there? I’m always on the look-out for potential partners….

Thanx. That’s good. I already looked into it. Researching it everyday. Do you do anything on the side, as well?

Words. Especially good ones, are sold cheap, can cost nothing, and are sold in massive quantities. But good luck with finding a niche demanding large quantities, that is almost an oxy moron, is it not? Is that the motivation you need? … motivation, you could sell that!

almost anything can be bought cheap if you are willing to buy enough of it at once,
if you are goingto sell something, find seasonal items, so you know when they will be in demand, the worst part of starting a business in sales is overstock

i’m sure seasonal items sound wierd kind of but things like fuel pellets and fire wood are in demand between September and January they can both be bought fairly cheap and sold for decent profits
