How to earn an extra $250 to $800 every weekend by using your credit cards.
The premise behind this section is based on using your
credit cards to get a cash advance and pay them back later. It
also includes the fact that Visa and Master Card are accepted by
many businesses.
Through my life I have come across many different money
making programs and ideas. Many of them I have used myself and
a few I still do use now and again. This one is definitely one
of my favorites, it's called "Surplus Closeouts". There is a
very large industry involved with the trading of various types
of closeout merchandise. You can find deals where new merchandise
is selling at close to 90% off the wholesale price!
The nice thing about these close out companies is that most
of them will deal with just about anybody, and most will take
Master Card and Visa. Your purchases could be made at
tremendous discounts and you could sell the products, make a
substantial gain and never have to use any of your own cash!
In order for this idea to work you need to know of a good
close out dealer to contact. There is magazine called the ASD
and AMD trade news which carries hundreds of ads to over 75,000
merchandise and surplus dealers.
Their address is: ASD AMD Trade News
166 Corinth Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90025
Write them and ask for a copy of their magazine. Make sure
you use a business name and type the request. When you get the
magazine call the ads that offer close outs and ask for a
catalogue or a list of all their current items for sale.
While going through their lists sometimes you may not find
anything interesting but go ahead and call them anyway and ask
them if they have any close outs. Many times their best close
outs are not even advertised. There are many deals to be found
in this magazine, here are just a few.
$1000 worth of costume jewelry for $100, collectable
porcelain dolls worth $50 each for $8 a piece, designer watches
for $0.20 cents, tools from $.10 cents to a dollar. Believe me
there is much more; far to much for me to put into this program!
What you have to remember about this enterprise is that
have purchased your goods for the best price in town. These
close outs you purchased can be sold to family, friends, work
associates, at flee markets, swap meets, garage sales, want ads
and the thrifty nickel adds. There are even some want add
papers that will let you place your advertisements at no charge!
Here is an example of one thing you could do. Say you
found a good deal on some tools, $0.12 cents a piece. You would
advertise in some local want add papers about a garage or yard
sale. At your house you could have a weekend tool sale. You
could sell your goods for $1 a piece and still make money! Make
sure to put up bright poster board signs leading to your house
the day of the sale.
That was one example but the product could be anything, or
several different things. Your marketing strategy and product lines
are entirely up to you. The result will be a nice return for you!
Another way is through auctions and collectibles. These
are great ways to make money. You do need to know a little
about these before you attempt this. Go to a library and do a
little research first so you'll know exactly what you want to do
when you enter this arena. Auctions and Estate sales are held
in communities everywhere. You can find out about auctions in your
local area by looking in the phone book or calling the chamber
of commerce.
Government seizures and repossessions are another excellent
opportunity for profit. There are many wealthy folks who came
about their wealth in the wrong way and have all their property
taken from them and auctioned off. These auctions are regular
in big cities and heavily populated areas. They are usually
advertised in the local paper but you could also learn about them
through auctioneers.
The above information was to open your eyes about the
investment philosophy of credit cards. I gave you just a few
ideas here but I want you to realize this; there are thousands
of money making opportunities and ideas out there. Now that you
know the basics the door is open for you to use your mind and
come up with a few winners of your own! After all, those are
the most fun, and the most profitable!!
