In this article we are going to reveal how to find a product locally. How to test it before spending a lot of money.

Following some research you decide you would like to sell kitchen items. But you don't know where to locate products. Simply go to your local Linen's and Thing's, Wal-Mart, Target
Etc. You see a nice, unusual wine bottle opener. Take a look at the tag and locate the manufacturer or distributors name. Most of these types of products are supplied through a
distribution network.

Once you have the name, go to Google on your computer and search the name. Locate their contact information, send an email, letter or call them to see if they will sell to you at
wholesale prices. You are an Internet Marketing Specialist and market products through on line auctions.

I have found most of the smaller products you see in the discount stores are supplied through an importer.

Here is how you save time and money prior to contacting the source. You want to market test the wine bottle opener before you go off and buy a dozen or more units.
Purchase one unit. List it for sale on ebay. Put a hidden page counter in the auction. The reason why you hide the total number of individuals viewing your auction is not to let
any potential competitors see how much traffic you received. It may end up being a hot item.

Based on the activity hits on the auction you can now follow up with the purchase of this item through the manufacturer or distribution source.

We have found numerous items to sell in auctions this way. All were not winners, but by testing prior to going out and purchasing more we maintained small investment in the losers.
