How to Start Your Own Online Used Book Selling Business

I currently work as a transcriptionist from home.  But prior to that, I had my own online used book business for 4.5 years.  My husband and I had lost our home to foreclosure, and separated (not because of the foreclosure, but due to other issues), and I was determined to be home with my children, despite our changing circumstances.  My kids and I moved into a much, much, much smaller home.  My brother built wall-to-wall bookcases, and I dove into the online used book business.  I started with $20.  No joke.

I'm proud to say that I was able to stay home with my children during those crucial years.  Many had argued it wasn't possible.  But I did it.  I did not get rich, but I supported myself and my children, and (bonus) had a good time in the process.  I'm no longer in the book selling business, as I'm getting older, and it was harder to continue the daily hunt for inventory.  Besides, my children are on their way out the door.  One just graduated from college, and the other two are off to college next year.

Still, I regularly get emails from people who read this blog, asking me how I got started in the used book selling business and how they can get started.  And so I thought: "Why not write a brief eBook?"  The result is the eBook you see above.  It includes details on how I got started in the online used bookselling business, where to obtain inventory, what you can expect as far as sales and turnover, advice on grading your books, details on shipping, printing postage from home, and packaging of books, where to sell your books, where to find management tools for your inventory, advice on keeping accurate tax records, and places where you can find advice, information, and support.

I'm offering this 8-page eBook: How to Make Money: Start Your Own Online Used Book Selling Business for $4.99, a price I arrived at in consideration of the information provided, time it took to create, and (honestly) in hopes of making a little extra spending money.  I wanted to price it so that any mom wanting to start a home business could afford it.
