I've like many of you tried to think of a way to use my mind to
make some money. I think my best bet is just to sell a product.
I got an idea what I want to sell. Its a product that cost alot
but I'm sure it can be obtained wholesale much cheaper(though
I've not looked). Heres my basic idea.
1) Use a fullfillment services to process the orders.
   a) set up account with a fullfillment services.
   b)ship product to fullfillment service(I never see product).
2) Build a simple website.
3) Get a secure shopping cart . I think some fullfillment services do this.
4) 1-800 toll number I think some fullfillment services offer a common
number for bussiness to use.
5)addvertise my website and phone number on the net and news papers.
My basically selling point will be much lowwer pricing. I think by using
a fullfillment service my social interaction will be very little. A sticking
point is I'm scared to even try even though I'm not scared to fail
(loose all my money). Anybody have any ideas? Like I see a million
fullfillment services. Any honest?
Can you find a niche in the market? Can you work out all your costs and see if you really could undercut what the product is being sold for presently?
Its a type of product were the box costs more than the product.
I'm not sure on the hidden regulatory cost but its something I could
make myself. Its possible I could make the product (regardless of the
law) and start that way.
I can't imagine what is it then.

It's best to work out all costs beforehand.
Yeah I never would have thought about this product. But I tried to buy
it and found its not cheap. Before I bought It, I considered making it
myself.  Do not worry you will never guess what it isSmile I think your right
I should study it some more. Maybe I should make a test batch and run
some numbers.
