As you all know, I am trying to grow my eBay business to huge numbers! Always shoot for the top! There was a quote in my inbox this morning from Herstorynetwork.com. I have no idea how I got on this inspirational mailing list but I love seeing these strong quotes from women (sorry guys ) every morning.
Today’s quote was from my friend Peggy McColl that I found to be interesting for two reasons. The first being that I have known Peggy for a long time and consider her a friend (her cell phone number is in my cell phone) and the next being that she is famous! Pretty cool and congrats to Peggy! Here is that quote and the accompanying text from Mary Long.
Even though you may not know how to achieve a lofty goal, set it anyway. You will be surprised at how inspired you’ll be and you’ll likely take action you wouldn’t normally have taken.

Following that lead and taking steps, I know that if I want to take my eBay business to the 1 million dollar annual mark, I am going to have to do several things. I am going to have to triple my auction listings, triple my average sales price, and triple my eBay store listings. Sounds easy enough 3-3-3.
I am working on and devising plans and procedures to accomplish this. One of my strategies has been to source higher-end antiques. I have met a very neat antiques dealer who wants to dispose of A LOT of merchandise. I have visited him three times and have spent $4800 with him so far. Now, keep in mind that there are pros and cons to this. Let’s take a look at those.
Pros: In an economy where the dollar may lose its value, investing in desirable more UNIQUE antiques & collectibles can be a way to safeguard against this. Look at the rising price of gold and sterling. Why not look for sterling silver flatware sets? I think this would be a great hedge type of investment.
