Ebay can be key to bootstrap funding
Trying to figure out how to self finance your next bootstrapping endeavor?
Try ebay, suggests one entrepreneur.
David Askaripour at Mind Petals recalls:
For years, I used to go to summer garage and yard sales with my mom and purchase tons of 10cent books from the boxes, sometimes the entire box, and come home to list them on ebay.
In general, he says he made much more than he invested, a great and inexpensive way to turn money around fast.
David's tips:
• On numerous occasions, I was able to package together volumes of books, purchased for $1-5, and turn around and sell them for $40+.
• And let's not forget about selling all those gadgets sitting around your room collecting dust – ebay those babies!
