Using Auction Inspector On The Want It Now Section Of Ebay
The foundation of a great business is getting a profitable niche. This isn’t just applicable to people who are into affiliate marketing but also to other forms of business.
This concept is very useful for people who wish to sell online through eBay. In such situation, it’s impertinent for you to find a niche in a market as huge as eBay.
The task of looking for a niche can be difficult and daunting at the same time. There are a number of softwares that can help you with that task though.
Auction Inspector is one of those software. Auction Inspector will help you find products that have a high demand without any significant competition through eBay’s Want It Now.
To those who do not know that the Want It Now is, this is where different users can post wanted ads for those products that they would be willing to buy.
Because all of these posts are unsorted, you wouldn’t really be able to make use of plenty of them.
But that is where the Auction Inspector comes in. It analyzes everything that is listed in the Want It Now posts. Auction Inspector goes through all of those posts and then comes up with different products that are in demand.
Once it comes up with that data, it then goes on to assess the sellers’ responses to come up with a niche that has a great demand but without any seller satisfying that demand yet.
Meanwhile, products that have low potential are those that aren’t really in demand with a steady supply.
You can also search for a particular product that you have in mind. All you have to do is to use a very specific keyword.
It takes a few minutes for the Auction Inspector to run through all those listings and come up with the results.

Take back your life by kicking clutter’s A$$
Okay, I had a few ideas swimming through my head for what to write about today. But I have been writing about some more serious topics for the last week or so and I wanted to have a little more fun. This is something that I’ve been doing lately as well, so it’s definitely on the brain as of late.
Clutter. We all have it at some point and just don’t think about it. My house has been very cluttered for the last year. My grandmother’s house is very SCARY. I love her to death, but her place has always been a bit cluttered. The last time I went there a few months ago, I could barely get around the house. This place is huge AND it has a large amount of clutter. I realized recently that my place was starting to fill up a bit with a bunch of junk that I just don’t need any more. Then I remembered how her place was and how I would like it NOT to get to that point.
I arrived back from my Iraq deployment over a year ago and left a lot of my gear down in the basement. A good friend has just recently acted out and helped me get motivated to undo this clutter in my house. He helped me clean up and organize my basement and I just notice how much better I feel. I seriously FEEL better PHYSICALLY just because one section of my house is organized, clean, and navigable.
So right in line with my small-chunk approach, I am now working on other areas of my house, a bit at a time. My friend helped me clear out a bunch of old crap, junk furniture, old broken electronics, and other garbage. We loaded it up in his truck, took it out to the dump and threw it into garbage heaven. A large mental weight was lifted at that point. We then came back and organized all my deployment gear and got the basement looking very neat and spiffy. I still have a lot of junk in my basement but now it is organized junk and I am going to be looking at getting rid of a lot of it in the near future via yard sales and eBay.
I also cleaned up and organized my upstairs bedrooms. I have a very workable guest room now that is still being used a little bit for storage, but at least I would have a place for a friend to crash if necessary. Next on the agenda is getting the rest of the house done, a room at a time.
The reason I am posting about this as it relates to personal development is exactly what I wrote earlier. I honestly FELT a hundred times better just after getting a few sections of my home cleaner and more organized. Just think how good I’ll feel when I have the whole place done and into a workable system where I can maintain it!
The point here is that I believe we all have a little clutter in our lives from time to time. Sometimes we notice it right away and clean up. Other times you tend to overlook it and that leaves the possibility of procrastinating, letting it grow, and then just blocking it altogether. I knew there was clutter but I honestly didn’t realize how bad it was affecting me until after we were finished. It’s a very refreshing and accomplished feeling to get your life in order. It motivates me to do more of the same to get more of that feeling as I walk through every part of my home.
Here are a few things you can do to win back your life from the clutches of clutter:
1. Clean and organize one room or area of your home per day. If you have a small house or apartment this won’t take long (lucky you!). If you have a larger home, it can be very overwhelming. The small-chunk approach will help you get past this. Just do one room every day as time permits. If you need help with some things, ask a good friend or family member. Within two weeks, you will have a very organized and workable living space.
2. Throw out, give away, or sell things you know you don’t need. Take all that old crap that has no use to the dump. Give away those clothes you never wear ever to charity (and get a tax deduction slip for it!). Sell those items that have value but that you don’t use by having a yard sale or by putting them up on eBay (and make some extra cash to take yourself out as a reward). Clear up space for yourself!
3. After you finish organizing your house, take a long hard look at it. Would you invite people over for a get-together or a party? If you wouldn’t, keep organizing until you see it as a place where you’d like to hang out. If your organization is good but your house is ugly or unfashionable, get a style-savvy friend’s opinion on where to make improvements. There are also plenty of articles and videos on the internet about home improvement and strengthening the appeal of your home. Making your home comfortable enough to have others over makes it feel twice as comfortable for you.
4. Keep a weekly routine of touching up and cleaning up around your house. Once it’s organized you want it to stay that way! There’s also plenty of ways to work smarter and not harder. Refurbished robotic vacuums are pretty reasonable online these days. A once-a-week cleaning binge will give you the peace of mind that comes with having an organized living space.
5. Start applying this organization mentality to other areas of your life that you KNOW are in need of it. If you need to clean up your office or cubicle, do so and then set up a maintainable, repeatable system to keep it that way.
6. Enjoy your organized and clutter-free life. Take yourself out or throw a party at your place with the money you made from selling your stuff.
Here’s to taking your time to get organized right now so that you can have more time to enjoy life later. Cheers.

Holly Mann’s "Honest Riches"
Okay, okay. I am finally turning out my review of Holly Mann’s ebook “Honest Riches”. I am a HUGE fan of this ebook. It directly addresses me, the budding internet marketer who is looking for a way to get his foot in the door with a lack of knowledge but a surplus of motivation and desire to succeed. Holly was in this very position herself. She is a young, single mom who got out of the Army as a disabled vet after a couple of years. She worked as a contractor in Iraq for a bit then decided to move back to the states. She had a baby and was living with her brother only pulling down $700 a month, most likely from disability benefits, and it just wasn’t cutting it.
After a couple of mediocre attempts at internet ventures, she decided to move to Thailand with her son. She felt comfortable going there because she had previously experienced the Thai life and culture after a stint there as an exchange student. Not to mention that Thailand, as is the case with any third world country, has a DIRT cheap cost-of-living. Heck, I’ve thought about moving there a couple of times myself for that! But I digress… In any case Holly was able to live a reasonably comfortable life in Thailand off her monthly $700. Since she had to sell her laptop on eBay just to get the tickets to fly there, she gave up $250 for parts for a new computer at some local PC chop shop. What they threw together for her was basically a computer with a pull-cord. According to Holly, this thing hummed like a John Deere when she was on it. In addition, she had a crap dial-up connection! She struggled to get web pages up and learn the internet marketing business, but she persevered and within 4 months she was making $12,000+ a month!
She is a successful affiliate marketer as well as ebook author. She has learned many simple, honest, & effective ways to make money online. I bought her book when I was searching for the Rich Jerk’s book and saw hers as an opportunity at more cost-effective information which was geared towards beginners such as myself. I don’t regret that decision and I highly recommend that you purchase the book as well. It covers affiliate marketing which is probably one of the main sources of any internet marketer’s income. It also discusses Google advertising programs, writing your own ebook, blogging, and much more. My favorite part is probably the section where she discusses setting up your own website. You don’t need to be an html wizard to do this! There is also plenty of information for making money by selling information or physical products through venues such as eBay. This has opened my eyes to the possibility of making a good living online. I am like many people who had no idea what internet marketing was and now I am looking forward to the future of being my own boss, setting my own hours, providing useful services, and making tons of money and having tons of fun doing it.

Happy Trails,
