As the economy struggles, more and more people are turning to the internet looking for potential earning opportunities. According to Adam Ginsberg, the hugely successful eBay entrepreneur and internet marketing expert, eBay is by far the most popular e-commerce website owing to its popularity, profitability and its ever growing user base. Adam Ginsberg gives his valuable insight and advice on how to get started on eBay and make it extremely profitable for yourself.

Right Price

When selling on eBay, it is always a good idea to see what your competition is doing. If you see the completed listings of products similar to what you are selling, you will get a fair idea of the bidding trends and price variations on the products. Secondly, keep the reserve price of your item as low as possible to attract more and more bidders. Successful eBay sellers do this as they know that they will get a fair price by the time the bidding ends.

Right Time

The ending time for an auction is very important in order to attract more buyers. Research has shown that the best time to end an auction is between 6:30 PM and 10:30 PM as potential bidders are back from work and are unwinding for the day, of which the internet is a very important part.

Shipping Options

While selling your products on eBay, do a little research on what your competitors are offering shipping-wise. While many buyers may not bother too much about it, shipping costs could play an important role in selling your products. If your competitors are offering free shipping, then it may be wise for you to do the same; however, if you do have to charge for shipping, then you should start at a lower starting price for your auctions and clearly mention the shipping charges.

Photos Talk

A picture may be worth a thousand words, but the quality of the picture will determine the language. While it is very important to add pictures of your products, it is equally important to have accurate and properly lit pictures for your potential customers to get a feel of your product. So, investing in a good camera setup may not be a bad idea to get ahead in your eBay business.

Whenever someone mentions, or even wonders aloud if they should take out insurance for their children, a hot debate kicks off. Every single time!

 This is probably one topic of personal finance/insurance that doesn’t seem to have unanimity on either side. Adam Ginsberg, the online entrepreneurship and wealth-building coach, too studied the various arguments and has decided to put forth his views on the subject.

First and foremost, taking out insurance for children is a sensitive topic for parents as each parent thinks differently about the welfare of their children. Hence, the decision to buy or not to buy life insurance for children should be left entirely to the parents. But here are a few arguments, both for and against, that Adam Ginsberg believes should be shared with parents so as to help them take an informed, albeit an emotional decision.  

The one argument that leans heavily in favor of buying insurance for children is to allow them to enjoy insurance coverage later in their lives in case they end with a chronic illness or a disability which renders them uninsurable. If this is the argument that you as a parent are going to consider then Adam Ginsberg suggests buying a whole life insurance policy, which will keep your child insured for his or her entire life, and also give them some returns in terms of the cash value of the policy. If that is the way you are going to go as a parent, then experts advise buying a renewable term plan for a high value makes more sense, and that too which has the option of converting into a whole life policy later.

On the other hand, the pundits believe that that purpose of insurance is to cover the loss of wage or income in the event of the insured person’s demise, and since children are not earning any livelihood, it is pointless to take out insurance policies for them. Instead, investing in a good 529 plan or IRA make better sense in the case of children. Click here to read more about what various experts think about this never ending argument.

Do you dream of owning your own business? Does the idea of setting your own hours make you weak in the knees? Becoming an eBay entrepreneur might be the perfect job for you. My name is Adam Ginsberg and I found my success by becoming an eBay PowerSeller. Many years ago, I was like you and I worked a regular nine-to-five job. I dreamed of starting my own business but worried about leaving the security of my regular job. Finally, I decided to make the jump to become an eBay entrepreneur and I haven’t looked back since. Here’s how I did it:

Do Your Research eBay takes about 9% of every transaction you make online. There are other fees such as fees and shipping costs as well. Make sure you do your research when it comes to becoming an eBay entrepreneur. Visit the eBay site often and research other businesses like yours. How do they market their services and products? How can you set yourself apart from the completion? You have to differentiate yourself to become successful using eBay

Make a Plan Before you create your eBay account, make a business plan. Successful entrepreneurs always have a plan of action. Put your research to work. Purchase the eBay software you need, take pictures of your products, and map out how you will sell them online. You should also create a budget and marketing plan. Take advantage of social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and LinkedIn to market your products and services.

Re-Evaluate Your Progress Every Three Months  You should re-evaluate your progress on eBay every three months.  Set aside some time to see what works and what doesn’t. Are you selling as much as you thought you would? What marketing tactics have worked and what has tanked? How is your supply and demand? Do you need to hire additional help? These are some of the questions you should ask yourself every three months.

Many people dream of owning their own business. Becoming an eBay entrepreneur is a great choice for many individuals. Make sure you do your research, make a plan and re-evaluate your progress every three months to ensure success. If you want help with your eBay selling plan, please feel free to contact me anytime. I look forward to hearing from you.

It’s that time of the year again. Time to bring out the calculator, bank statements, the folder with all your investment receipts and everything else needed to do the one thing that cannot be put off for later….file your Tax Returns!

Adam Ginsberg, one of the foremost authorities on wealth building and internet entrepreneurship offers some useful, practical tips that could save you time, and possibly, some money too!

Tax Tip #1

Don’t leave it to the last minute

Here’s a last minute advice for all those who are waiting for the last minute to file their tax returns. It may not be a good idea to leave filing your tax returns till April 15th. As it often happens, you may miss out on saving some tax by forgetting to attach a deductible expense or by some other foresight. While it may be late for this year, you could start early in the next. Filing taxes and financial planning are very important for every earning individual and should not be treated as low-priority chores. Instead take out a few days in the beginning of April (take off from work if you have to) and get your tax filing paperwork in order.

Tax Tip #2

Get Professional Help

It is always a good idea to take the help of a professional tax preparer to prepare your returns if you fall under a high tax bracket. There are many provisions in the tax law to reduce your taxable income, and hence your tax liability. Besides a professional tax preparer will be updated with the latest revisions in the tax law, which will help you in filing your returns more accurately.

Tax Tip #3

Invest to Save

If you fall under a higher tax bracket and suddenly realize that you could save some tax by making a few investments, then go ahead and do it while you still have time till April 15th. The best investments are in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) that can help you reduce your taxable income by $5,000, and in a Health Savings Account (HSA), which can reduce your taxable income by $6,250 on a family policy. Again, get in touch with a professional tax advisor to explore more ways to save your tax liability.

While these tips may be of some help for the last-minute filers of tax returns, you could also use them to start early for the next year.
