Import Export Business opportunities for small companies

February 29, 2008 By: Administrator Category: 2MyMall No Comments →

The key to a successful Import / Export business is to buy in bulk at a low price and sell it at a profit. Many have gone the way of importing goods from countries where the production cost is low, thus resulting in cheaper products. In order to stay competitive, it only makes sense to import in very large quantities - something which the small to medium companies cannot afford to do. Then there is also the risk of over-stocking or out-dated products.

Those who import in large quantities will face this problem sooner or later. Either they end up with ex-stock they can’t get rid off, or they need to clear the space for the latest batch. Whatever the reason might be, bottom line is they need to get rid of their stock and are sometimes willing to release these at prices way below cost. This is a good opportunity to make a quick buck by buying in lots and selling them on Online Auction Sites like Ebay. The problem is to know when and where such opportunities arise.

While doing a search for such opportunities, I came across this site www.merchandizeliquidators.com. When major importers or distributors want to get rid of old stock, they look for Merchandise Liquidators. These guys by the stock in lots re-package and resell them back to anyone interested. Take note that while these might be out-dated products, most are as good as new and are going at Prices Below Cost! Selling them at a profit should not be a problem.

Their online store is well stocked with a wide range of products like designer clothes for men, women and even children, jewelry, cosmetics, lingerie, toys, shoes, furniture and even electronics going at wholesale prices. This is one site I will be keeping my eye on for the right bargain. To give you an idea of some of their deals, see below.

Work from home - Internet Business Opportunity

December 21, 2007 By: Administrator Category: 2MyMall No Comments →

I have come across many business opportunities online or work from home programs, but none interest me. Reason is either their products are not attractive like health products or some shampoo, or their prices offered are not competitive. Some are franchises requiring you to invest a bomb! just to join the program while others are MLM, requiring you to find others to join under you, before you can start making money.

Recently I came across a site called "PC Link" situated in the UK. This site offers various business opportunities for those interested in making money online. What strikes me most about this site is the way it is organized. They don’t just offer thousands of products in an online mall and get you to promote it, but their products are categorized into different stores and you select the stores you want to promote. This is an important feature as you can target your promotions to just a group of products rather than a huge uncategorized range.

Currently, they offer three business opportunities for online entrepreneurs:

  1. Internet Dating Site -

    operate your very own fully automatic world-wide dating website.

  2. Ink Cartridge Shop -

    sell quality ink cartridges at prices considerably below those of normal retailers .

  3. Computer Shop - sell computer systems and accessories at prices below those of normal retailers.

One thing good about this company is that they take care of the whole setup and running of a business website. Products are updated automatically. They offer you a base price, you decide how much you want to sell it for. Processing orders, shipping, collection of payments, etc…is all handled by them. All you do is to promote your site.

They do charge an initial fee

of £95 to £135 (depending on the store), for setup and a hosting fee of

£35 for hosting every 6 months. These charges put me off at first but when I looked deeper, I saw products that are being offered at huge discounts to members. There are some products which I feel I can easily be sold at 50% more than what they advertise, so in the long run, I feel this is a sustainable business.

Check out the site PC Link and let me know what you think.

 

Which is better. Plasma or LCD TV?

December 04, 2007 By: Administrator Category: 2MyMall No Comments →

This is the decision I have to make for my new TV purchase. After reviewing a few sites on this topic, I now have a better understanding of both technologies and their limitations. I will just go over some of the important details.

Resolution

This is what we are all looking for when making that jump from CRT to HDTV. Where size is concerned, I found that LCD TVs offer true HD resolution (usually at 1280 x 768 pixels, sometimes more) even with small screen sizes of 15". This is an important factor if price is a concern as smaller screen size = lower price. For Plasma Tvs, you need to have at least a 42" set in order to enjoy that high definition.

Refresh rate

This is the rate which the screen refreshes. The faster this is, the more smoother movements would be. Heard that Plasma is better than LCD in this area. This is important when watching fast paced movies or sports. Images on an LCD TV screen appear blurred. But from what I read, current LCD TV sets are closing the gap with their Plasma counterparts.

Burn in or stuck pixels

Burn in normally happens when a still image is constantly displayed on the screen like in computer games. What happens is that the image is burnt into the screen and can affect the viewing of other programs. This occurs in Plasma sets and usually after a certain number of hours. Good idea to check on the burn in rate when purchasing a plasma set. LCD TVs’ do not have burn in problems but due to the number of pixels in a LCD screen, some can be dead pixels.

Other factors

Plasma TVs are heavy, consume more power, and also produce more heat than LCD TVs. I read that Plasma TVs produce brighter images with better contrast, but because they are covered with glass, they tend to reflect light in well light rooms, making LCD TVs a better choice when viewing in bright areas.

Based on the above points, I intend to look along the lines of a LCD TV as they come in smaller sizes, good resolution, less power consumption, easier installation and can be used as TV or computer monitor screen. Only problem is with refresh rates, which I doubt is noticeable. Those interested in reading more can go to cnet as there are some interesting comments there.

 

Blog upgrade

September 17, 2007 By: Administrator Category: 2MyMall 1 Comment →

This blog runs on wordpress platform. Just downloaded the latest version and a new set of themes. Spent the last couple of hours upgrading the blog and fine tuning site colors and layout. Upgraded version has some cool features. Site was badly in need of an upgrade not only for design reasons but also security. Kept putting this off but finally got around to it and am pretty pleased with the results.

In case you are wondering how the site looked in the past,
Old Look

One of the best outcome from this upgrade is, the speed in which posts are updated and relevant sites notified of the update. Older version use to take about 5 minutes for this. Now it takes less than a minute :)
