13 Hot Businesses
for 2005
From high-tech
clothes to wine, eBay drop-off stores to tech security, the business
ideas on our 2005 hot list run the gamut. But they have one thing in
common: They're sizzling hot and just waiting for you to bring them to
life.
eBay
Drop-Off Stores (QUESTIONABLE!!!!!)
One business realm
continues to flourish despite American's concerns over the sluggish
economy-the seemingly indomitable kingdom of eBay. The auction
marketplace juggernaut has more than 95 million registered users
worldwide who traded nearly $24 billion worth of goods in 2003.
Whether you pride yourself on being a Titanium Power Seller or have
never even thought about selling on eBay, there's serious money to be
made, and a crop of eBay drop-off businesses are popping up to help
with the process.
EBay drop-off
stores bridge the gap between the online bazaar and people who want to
sell their goods without the hassle. Owners serve as middlemen who
handle an item's sale-from photography and description to financial
transaction-netting a percentage for the service. Though eBay set up a
Trading Assistant Program in 2002, which allows eBay users to help
others sell their items, it has otherwise kept its distance in this
arena and has welcomed enterprising individuals as intermediaries.
"We're definitely
seeing a trend of these retail storefronts opening up,"
says Hani Durzy of eBay.
Great News for anybody with $100K plus to spare, our opportunity is a
FRACTION of that and you get to keep more of your fees.
SO YOU MAKE MORE MONEY!!!!
