Can You Sell This???

You’re about to enter into the greatest online marketing game on the internet!

It’s the new internet game show, “Can You Sell This???” The game tonight is to meet the marketing challenge on this page — that means to try to sell everything on the page at full retail. Ready to begin?

The way it works is you grab a screenshot of the items you want to sell, and use those screenshots to sell the item, maybe on your web page or social media outlet — don’t forget to mark it up double, to get your full retail.

This is a way that you can use a multi-million dollar inventory without putting a single penny out of pocket, and you can start your own online gift shop this way, without having to spend anything to get started, and you’ll have hundreds of items on the virtual shelves!

Here’s a two-inch square “Empty Classified Document Folder” button you ought to be able to sell at $5.99 retail, and for a while, everybody will know what your button means. After that, it’ll be a collectible. If you get into a jam and you need some extra cash, you might sell the button to the highest bidder.

I also have original painted designs on Feature Nails, but they run $125 a pop, and are actually miniature paintings and ink washes.

If you really want an original Dutch Masters Painted Nail, I’d recommend mounting it in a deep frame. I do that for an additional $125 — the labor is a bitch and I wreck one out of four frames, so if you’re looking for a wrecked frame, check my wrecked frame inventory out back of the shed.

You know that you can add to this product by painting colors onto them? I don’t think it would add anything, but it’s just another way you could add value if you were strapped for another reason to charge more. Continue reading
