☆ Entrepreneurs who bring in millions flipping clothes and sneakers explain how they find profitable products, including 'home run items'
  + stars: | 2024-10-03 | by ( Kathleen Elkins | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
As for home run items, don't expect to find them daily but, 'they are out there.' AdvertisementBuying and reselling items can be an effective way to bring in extra cash — and can even be your ticket to financial independence. Richard S., who prefers not to share his last name for privacy reasons, started reselling items from his closet on eBay after losing his job in 2008. I didn't sell the Nike SB until maybe six months ago because I didn't understand what a Nike SB really was. In the reselling business, "it doesn't matter what I think is cool," said Richard.

☆ I quit multiple dream jobs to move for my husband's career. It was tough but led me to create a flexible 6-figure business.

Read previewI became a freelance marketing assistant without planning to in 2010 when my husband's military career forced me to quit yet another dream job. As we moved frequently over the previous seven years, I always landed new jobs, but starting over in every town didn't help my career progression. AdvertisementI advise new digital service providers to skip admin services and offer marketing services immediately. Marketing services are also the most flexible. I found that freelancers can hit the upper five figures and into the $100+/hour range by niching into specialized marketing services.

☆ A financially independent eBay seller explains how he finds profitable products, including 'home run items'

Reselling items on eBay can be an effective way to bring in extra cash. For Richard S., who prefers not to share his last name for privacy reasons, eBay was his ticket to financial independence. The eBay expert, who's been reselling on the platform since 2008, recommends starting by listing what you already have lying around your house. I'm buying everyday value items that everybody can afford. "If you go out there with the most amount of information and you give yourself the most amount of opportunities you will run into more of these home run items."
