    Thanks. for the reply. So yeah say if I get some products to sell on ebay via paypal - because I know once a potential customer expresses an interest i.e bids - then he/she will 99% have to buy - unless they want their own a/c in detriment.

The only reason I ask is because if someone's already done it there's no harm in letting someone else know some insights regarding such topics as that is what it all...

What is the main avenue to sell through if you want to do this in a legitimate way but create a structure for it for tax purposes? i.e pay less tax on your income? Do you plan for tax before embarking on this? If not...

    What would you do if all you knew was to Start with the Who?

    If you can't look at an industry or a customer - as a starting point - of starting a business within that industry or around "that" customer - how can one find needs day in day out for "people" in general? to then know whether this is something that could be pursued as a business if you have...

    What would you do if all you knew was to Start with the Who?

    Even I thought this premise would be "the" universal way to find markets then delve into their needs. I thought if you could use market segmentation and create an avatar of what your customer would be like then you can delve into different industries that "that" specific customer would...

    What are the reasons for not buying branded products? Can you lay them out? I just feel that with selling unbranded products to fill a purpose you would need a lot of traction to sell because the perception of quality and trust isn't there? I see so many retailers offline and ecommerce stores...
