Q&A: Where can you find products to resell over and over?

Notes from Chris

Episode 1796

Reselling is a simple business, and it’s easy enough to find something to sell once. Anyone can do it today.

But for a real moneymaker, you need a source of products you can go to over and over. Today’s listener wonders: where is it??

"Hey Chris, this is Tina from Boulder and I started listening to the show after reading The Money Tree.

I've been experimenting with reselling, and it's fun. Last month I made a profit of $700 just from visiting thrift stores and an estate sale. But I also don't see it expanding much if I keep doing it this way. I'm constantly selling one-off items. It would be much better to sell the same items over and over—but the problem is, I don't know what those would be or where to find them. Aside from what I've been doing (the thrift stores, yard sales, and flea markets), how can I find products I could resell over and over? Thanks for your help."
