Watched this video for the 2nd time. I want you to know that YOU have changed our lives by teaching us. So you have already helped more than you know and I am sure, we are not the only people you have helped. You are changing lives. Thank you.
Tracy, great video with lots of motivational tips for Resellers...I agree with you 110%...NEVER give up! It takes baby steps and lots of hard work, but if you love what you are doing, that makes all the difference in the world! Thanks again! ☺
Love your videos thanks for your honesty! Looking at doing FBA from nothing to help hubby with bills. You have helped put my mind at ease at starting this new venture.
Thanks for all your free info. Because of you mostly (a few others have helped) I have made a small profit twice a month for the past 3 months. Please announce when your book comes out. I want a copy. You have the ability to take something complicated and make it easy to understand. Keep up the good work. Bless you.
Hey, Tracy! Thank you for the motivation. I've been trying to get on my feet for the last 6 months now as a single mother with an almost 2 year old, reselling part time for now. I am finally making a small profit, very small profit. I have tried eBay and ran out of things in my house to sell and after a while I couldn't make it to the auctions to buy more stuff because I ran out of money. I started FBA to offset my couponing at the grocery stores and CVS. Made a couple dollars on those. I found a few places to do RA at, but the profit is very small for high-ranking toy items and I couldn't seem to buy enough to be worth the time. Definitely no clearance items discounted 75-90%. I was lucky to get 50%. With a small child around and little help, I have been trying to find other ways to acquire inventory. I can't shop for hours in a day anymore, so I am looking into OA. Have you done that? Do you have any tips? Thank you so much for everything you do!!! :)
+iamdiva Yes, RA is very time consuming and even harder with a toddler. OA can have smaller profit margins but overall can be better because of the time (=money) and how it can boost your in warehouse inventory. I have been adding more videos about OA and hope you have been watching. More to come!!
As usual Tracy, a great video. I have been so encouraged by your work. I have spent the last 6 months doing research in all the areas of the business and am about to launch my effort by the end of this week. I have assembled the technology I need, some product and find that I am scared to death! But with encouragement such as yours, I will persist. I thank you and look forward to seeing your new website as soon as it gets launched.
+EntrepreneurGirl Hi There! Since the end of July, I have gone full-time into FBA and am about to start ebay by next week, I hope. Currently, I have close to 1000 books listed in FBA and just started to send in retail arbitrage products. It is a joy to get up each morning and see the sales counter clicked higher, almost each day. The biggest challenge I find is being disciplined enough to turn away from products if the margins are not enough. It's the same amount of work if I sell a $5 book and make $1 versus selling a $95 book and making $75. So, working on better quality inventory seems to be a critical factor in my overall success, and I wouldn't have realized that so soon unless I had heard you share it in your videos. Thank you!
+Lee Parmenter What a great update! So happy things are coming along nicely. Yes, the inventory choices are something you learn over time and out of necessity. So glad you are utilizing it early in your game :) Keep me posted!!!
Always watch your vids Tracy, great content and engaging, and your American accent on Traceeeeey's Tooosday Tips..... the 3 loooong T's.........lol, Entrepreeeeeneur Girl, you are milking it now!! (my humour), don't stop!! slow down back to yourself speed.... Love your accent and your intelligent & organised approach to your informative and entertaining productions....GL to you, keep it coming.. from the lil' UK x
+richardsracingmad LOL Love it! Thanks ... although I must admit I'm jealous. I have always longed for a UK accent. I've been even known to fake one (and I'm just awful at it!). :)
+Sarah M. Jordan Favorite?? hmmmmm... I love online auctions of pallets of goods a lot. Here's my video link on it ua-cam.com/video/PoO6qgi95Yg/v-deo.html
I just came across your videos and you are down to earth and awesome. My question to you is, which of your videos should I start with? There is so much..Thanks for your direction.
I never see you take photos so is it okay to use Amazon stock photos. When you did your shopping at Kohls and the scanner depicted the same item on Amazon prime, I just assumed you used the stock pic since your item was identical. Thanks for sharing as your videos help a a great deal.
+jojohot100 Yes, that is what is so wonderful and time saving about Amazon... you don't have to take all the photos like you do on ebay... they want you to use stock unless you are creating a new listing.
Great videos, practical and thought inspiring. Would there be any challenges I should think about when selling items I find while traveling to other countries and shipping from those locations if I'm so lucky as to need to do that?
+Omayra Vicente I have a video comparing the various scanning apps out there. You can use the free Amazon app and Amazon Revenue Calculator. I use Profit Bandit. Hope that helps!
+George Eubanks Thanks for posting.... I think it is good for everyone to hear different outcomes. Would you mind sharing more about what type of items you list, how much listed value you place in the warehouse a week, etc... so we can gain some insight?
You mentioned in another video that the limit was 10 items. If I sell those 10 items and do well, how much can I expect to be increased in terms of how many items I can sell. Thanks
Don't you need to have a checking account? I already signed up for both Ebay and Amazon, but not sure if you can sign up without some kind of bank account. People need to know that before signing up and not everyone has that...just saying. Great video btw!
Just Curious what is your eBay address and your Amazon address. I follow your videos because you are real! You inform your audience in a down to earth, practical way how to approach online selling as a business. I am learning a bunch!! But I do not see your Web addresses anywhere. Please post so I can see you in action! Thanks a bunch, Phyllis
+Phyllis St.Cyr Hey Phyllis! Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm so glad that my sincerity comes through, because I really do care about you and your success. However, I do not give my ebay and amazon info out. I'm grateful for the many lovers, but unfortunately, there are also some haters, and I choose not to open myself up to the (potential) negative critique. I hope everyone can understand this....
Hi can you answer my question just started a month ago and getting one to two sales a day .but every time I send in a shipment the fees come from my account than I have sales than send in another shipment have fees out again what can I do to see this really work ? I'm reinvesting the money I'm getting from the sales.
+Erica Andrade You will need to sale more than the fees. My guess is you are not listing enough product....? Maybe. ua-cam.com/video/t7FOuTiCdp4/v-deo.html may help break it down for you as far as how much you should strive to list.
Watched this video for the 2nd time. I want you to know that YOU have changed our lives by teaching us. So you have already helped more than you know and I am sure, we are not the only people you have helped. You are changing lives. Thank you.
+Hula Shack Thanks for saying that. More than anything, that is what I hope to accomplish.
Thank you for the Encouragement .... I was feeling down and overwhelmed ...
+Kelly Sheridan Hope things are looking up! Thanks for watching :)
Thank you for the encouragement to help us keep going.
+Sarah Perez Go get em'!!!!!
Love this video, very inspirational and you have a very refreshing personality.
Tracy, great video with lots of motivational tips for Resellers...I agree with you 110%...NEVER give up! It takes baby steps and lots of hard work, but if you love what you are doing, that makes all the difference in the world! Thanks again! ☺
+Jodi Sykes What a ROCKIN' attitude!!!
Love your videos thanks for your honesty! Looking at doing FBA from nothing to help hubby with bills. You have helped put my mind at ease at starting this new venture.

+MAURICE FLOYD As always, thanks Maurice!
Great information Tracy.
+Gleeshhy YAL Thanks !!
+Gail Lynch Most times. I always lose signal in IKEA, so I'm sure it's location specific and service provider has a lot to do with it.

If you change your speed or accent I PROMISE that I will unsubscribe...(just us Brits taking the mickey, we love you really!)...keep 'em coming EG
Great Video Tracy! God bless sister! :)
+Ken Paul Blessings Ken!!
Thanks so much Tracey! you mentioned online arbitrage. What are your favorite online shops? loving your videos so far. Thanks again
+Sarah M. Jordan Favorite?? hmmmmm... I love online auctions of pallets of goods a lot. Here's my video link on it ua-cam.com/video/PoO6qgi95Yg/v-deo.html
+EntrepreneurGirl Thanks a million :)
I just came across your videos and you are down to earth and awesome. My question to you is, which of your videos should I start with? There is so much..Thanks for your direction.
That is how I started. Now I am a power seller. And to add to this I was payed off and had something to fall back on.
+Tina Salas Awesome!!!
I never see you take photos so is it okay to use Amazon stock photos. When you did your shopping at Kohls and the scanner depicted the same item on Amazon prime, I just assumed you used the stock pic since your item was identical. Thanks for sharing as your videos help a a great deal.

Great video Tracy! How did you learn to trade stocks? It's something I'm very interested in doing
I loved you video very supportive. I would like to be part of you fb group how i can find that.Thanks.
like your videos... What app do I use to scan... So I can know what my profit will be... Have a wonderful day...
+Omayra Vicente I have a video comparing the various scanning apps out there. You can use the free Amazon app and Amazon Revenue Calculator. I use Profit Bandit. Hope that helps!
Been doing this 12 years full time and still gross less than $300 a month on ebay, amazon, etsy, bonanza and my website combined.
+George Eubanks Thanks for posting.... I think it is good for everyone to hear different outcomes. Would you mind sharing more about what type of items you list, how much listed value you place in the warehouse a week, etc... so we can gain some insight?
I don't understand how you can do resale arbitrage??? Target Walmart or any stores don't put stuffs on sale enough for a full time income.
You mentioned in another video that the limit was 10 items. If I sell those 10 items and do well, how much can I expect to be increased in terms of how many items I can sell. Thanks
+april murphy Every 30 days you call and get increased... I can't remember exactly how much by, but I'm thinking to around 100...?
Don't you need to have a checking account? I already signed up for both Ebay and Amazon, but not sure if you can sign up without some kind of bank account. People need to know that before signing up and not everyone has that...just saying. Great video btw!
MaggieLoveMTC
Good point. I wasn't aware and had to open a second account so I could avoid co-mingling my accounts.
+jojohot100 Agreed :)
Thank you for replying. Does your iphone 6+ pick up the internet at big box stores like Walmart with a metal roof?
What kind of smart phone do you use? My iphone4s will not connect to the internet at Walmart.
I have a smartphone Apple 6+ and love the big screen for reselling.
