New scooter, Paid Writing, Increasing HoR Sales
I bought yet another scooter, same year, same brand. I saw it on Craigslist going for a great price, so I withdrew cash from the bank and bought it.
------------------------------------
Recently I have been getting a lot of offers to write for stock market websites. One offer I got was from ADVFN.com that pays $500 a quarter or $2,000 a year. According to their agreement I must write a one paragraph post on their website about the stock market every day.
SO I would get $8 a day for writing one paragraph a day, 5 days a week....this sounds too much like a job.
Ever since I made up my mind to increase profits for House Of Rave, it has worked.
Here was my hopeful profit chart:

A few things which I think made the most different are:
-Creating the entire order system, shopping cart, more info pages on a similar template as the main page. This makes the whole browsing to ordering process congruent.
-Added 1-800 number.
-Started using Outlook for email instead of a web email client. I seriously think THIS is the reason for increased sales. My customer service went from terrible to great by switching to Outlook.
When a customer sends a question or complaint via email, I get it right away. I can respond to problems with customers or the fullfilment company immediately. In my prior system I would check the mail whenever I had the time...and I usually I was very bad about it.
Quite often customer inquiries lead to sales. I have also kicked into effect a few things that should help me net around $2,000 a month in the very near future.
I am attempting to start my own online shop but am having a mountain of trouble getting a merchant account to accept credit cards with. Banks are a real head ache :(
Anyway, thanks again for the tips Nev, your an inspiration and all round great guy! Keep it up!

Congrats on Michael Dell and Lance Armstrong. What was the cost per plate? :)

If you can turn it for a profit, even after storing it for a few months, that is smart.
it's NOT smart to invest in "if".
factor in the storage, time to list the item for sale, show the item, etc. i bet it will not be profitable at all even if he sells it for a bit more then he bought it for. especially when you consider that he could have kept that money in the market during this time. now he has that money in an item that is certainly not increasing in value as it sits in his carport.
Buy low, sell high! I'm pretty sure Neville knows the scooter market in TX. If he thinks it's a good investment, it most likely is. People buy to resell higher anything to make cash since cash exist. I know people who flip houses and cars. I dont see why scooters would be much different.
All the magic is in the buying at the right price.

You gotta be kidding me. All investments are investments in "if". There is no return without risk.
What's the situation today young man?
I’ve been looking for a way to get a split second understanding of different investment choices in a manner that is clear, rich and easy to grasp.
I've been using Clarityrules and thought you might like to try it out. You can find out more at www.clarityrules.com

Damn you beef farmer mentality folk --- buy low sell high -- yuck! I'm in the cashflow business...I hate quick cash....I like steady streams of income that give me the freedom to check out this post while I'm here sipping on my tangy cocktail...yum
So basically you claim to be able to build streams of income with a properly discounted NPV HIGHER than his profit on this transaction with the same or less amount of effort/time.
Let's assume he will make $300 on this deal and that he spent 5 hour working on the deal. This makes it about $60/h. Now, if you got a way for the average joe to make this kind of money in his free time, start your blog! Show it to the world. You'll be much more appreciated than Nev.
Most likely, you do not have such knowledge. Please prove me wrong, I need more money!
I'm into office chairs right now. Just flipped 8 Steelcase Leap chairs, kept two, made a decent profit, then sold one of the two I kept and bought a nicely used Aeron. Leather arm pads and was used on a movie set in LA. :)
Not that I care about hollywood but at least it has some character. :)
so he made $300 in a few hours. With my current web properties I earn in excess of 10g+ per month --- many are automated web systems...there are however a few I need to work at maybe a few hours a week.
I have no spare time -- all my time is spare time.
about getting a blog -- neaw. regarding you wanting the information, sure I'd be happy to mentor you, but this ain't no picnic ...my fees are high.
The only advantage may be that it gets your name out to an even wider audience.
Nice scooter. I ride a "little Honda" here in Tokyo.
What kind of mileage you getting on that baby?
Good luck with the new biz ideas.
