The Ultimate Wholesale Battle
If you’e looking to seriously start a business online with eBay, it’s time to start thinking about how and where to source your products. It might seem like a simple process. Maybe Google up some keywords like wholesalers, dropshippers, how to get millions of items for free and sell them on eBay. But, alas, it’s not always that simple.
It’s fairly well known that it’s not a good idea to search for a supplier with a Google search. If you’re not familiar with the negative aspects of this idea, I’ll tell you now, please do not try to find a supplier just using a Google search. You’ll end up with a lot of scams and a lot less money.
That doesn’t mean the Internet isn’t a good place to find out how to find a supplier. That may sound confusing, but let me explain.
Usually, scammers will try to sell you a list of wholesalers, which really turns out to be a worthless list of supposed manufacturers. So, when you search for wholesalers on Google, that’s what you’re going to get.
There are, however, sites that are developed as communities to help you find reliable product sources and also help you utilize this information to make more money with your online business.
Two sites that will help you do this are:
World Wide Brands and SaleHoo
SaleHoo
SaleHoo boasts an overwhelming membership of over 45,000 and lists over 7,000 product suppliers, according to manager Simon Slade. This in itself is a great value. If you’ve ever been a member of an online group, one of its greatest assets is the information you learn from the experienced members. SaleHoo also has a database of reliable suppliers for you to browse through, contact and hopefully build a business relationship with. You can also get market research and software.
I’ve read many different reviews of SaleHoo most of them concur that it is a decent program that gives you what it promises. It’s verified by the Better Business Bureau and if you’re not satisfied, it offers a 56-day money back guarantee, says Slade.
World Wide Brands
When you first visit World Wide Brands’s website, there is one thing you’ll notice- no hype. That’s a good first sign when it comes to someone promoting their product to you. Chris Malta, the CEO and founder has quite a list of accomplishments and provides a lot of free content on how to start an Internet business to how to find products to sell on eBay.
Another great aspect of World Wide Brands is that it is recognized by the Better Business Bureau, is endorsed by Jim Griffith, who is the Dean of eBay University, host of the eBay Radio show and helped write “The Official eBay Bible”.
With credentials like these, it’s hard not to see what the more legitimate choice would be. World Wide Brands is an amazing resource even if you don’t join. You can download free eBooks, watch Videos and join their newsletter.
But, if you’re serious about your eBay business, please check out SaleHoo and World Wide Brands.
