Changing my mindset - Buyer to Seller

It struck me recently that all my life I've bought, purchased, acquired, or otherwise found some way of parting with my hard-earned cash to get things. What I've very rarely done is sell anything. Now I lknow I'm not a natural salesman - especially face to face. I've briefly had two sales jobs and I found them both demoralising in the extreme.

But selling online has a great advantage - you don't have to speak to anyone! Yes, you have to think of what to say in order to convert browsers into buyers, but it's at your own pace and you can change what you've said at will.

So I've found my mindset changing from buyer to seller. I'm even going to try selling unwanted things on eBay to raise a bit of cash - a first for me! So if you've never sold on ebBay or any other online marketplace, give it a go. With eBay you can create HTML pages with your own content to sell the item in question. I know it'll be good practise for me and it will be for you too. And it'll create space in your home.
