In this digital age, more and more people are turning to the internet as a source of income. And why not? There are so many opportunities offered online, and many of them that can be much more desirable than your average 9 to 5 job. The internet allows you to work from home, or anywhere you want as long as you have a computer and an internet connection, you'd never need to get stuck in a traffic jam again. It allows you to connect with the world and expand both your business and your contacts way beyond a local business ever could. You could be in charge of your business and your time, and never need to worry about answering to an unreasonable employer who didn't really appreciate you anyway.
There are a lot of advantages to setting up your own business online, but of course as with everything, it takes work. Don't assume that working online means that you don't actually have to do any work. Any successful business requires a lot of hard work, the internet just makes it easier to be successful, especially if you start your business via eBay. eBay levels the playing field for both small business owners and huge corporations, giving both equal opportunities previously only achieved by the big companies. Just ask anyone who's been making money on eBay this last decade.
Hillary DePiano is one of them. She has been selling on eBay for the last ten years and has been successful as both a Trading Assistant and a PowerSeller. She started off by selling her collection of Muppet memorabilia but found how profitable selling on eBay could be and expanded to selling many other vintage toys and collectibles.
Many of us would love to duplicate her success on eBay, but haven't the least idea how to start. DePiano tells us how with her book The Trading Assistant's Assistant. Full of practical advice and tips on how to start a part-time job or a full-time business on eBay, The Trading Assistant's Assistant guides you step by step through everything you need to know.
