Let's start this off by explaining what is meant by the word "reselling." This process essentially means that you source materials and/or products from a range of suppliers and then find a market to sell that product to, hence the name. Now this can either be done via an online store or even using garage sales, exhibitions and fairs to sell your product to your targeted market.
Now, let's explore the steps required for becoming a successful reseller. First and most importantly, you need to understand your market - this means that you need to find the right target market (you can't be selling the latest, trendy kicks to old-age homes). This step is where you need to fasten your seatbelt and conduct a thorough campaign of research on your market including their needs and demands. Additionally, your product, in turn, has to be something that caters to these demands or even better, creates such demands.
Once you have established your target market, it is time to step out into the world to search for your high-quality product, at the right price. This step is going to require patience and perseverance with a garnishing of good negotiation skills. You'll need to get in contact with more than just one supplier and make your terms heard by each supplier so that you are sure that you are getting the best deal possible and retaining a healthy business relationship with your supplier. At this step, it is also important to comprehend and make an estimate of your possible profit margin by setting up a likely price your consumers would be happy to pay.
Moving further ahead into the world of reselling - you need to market your product to your market. Yes, I know that's a mouthful of markets - but it is truly what needs to be done, and done exceptionally well. You will need to make your product stand out from your competition and garner a boatload of interest in your product which will ultimately generate sales. Now, for this, you need to get creative and make use of an array of marketing media - be it marketing via social media, creating colorful posters and vibrant brochures that could be posted in your local neighbourhood, or even making use of word-of-mouth marketing to target your audience. Another factor to keep in mind when promoting your product is to make sure that the price of your product is fair and not too extreme, this will lead to an increased interest in your product. All in all, the importance of this step cannot be stressed enough.
Now, we are finally on to the fruitful last step - sales and profits. For this step, you must ensure a smooth purchasing experience for consumers, be it online or in real-life sales. Options of low-cost delivery, cash on delivery, et cetera could be a few additional features that could help streamline and differentiate the purchasing process of your product compared to your competitors. Finally, completing even your first sale should result in profit generation and also build a good customer base that can vouch for your products and help in word-of-mouth marketing - hence, creating an ever-expanding cycle for your earnings through reselling, as long as you stay consistent and true to your work. Best of luck with your future endeavors!
