So what is it do you want to sell?

There are a thousand and one products out there that can be sold over the internet. The important thing is, choosing one that suits your business capability. Consider for example, selling fresh flowers over the internet. To do this you need to have a really good transporting system which would deliver the flowers fresh and fast. On the other hand, if you are selling old magazines, this can be done quite readily by a small business venture.

One type of products that for me has the most attraction are products which can be delivered instantly or directly over the internet, such as music files, e-books, movie files etc. (I myself have a page where you can download ebooks and you can resell these on the internet) The beauty of this kind of products are that they need no stock, you don't need to attend to each and every transactions, product will be delivered upon reception of payment, all of which can be done while you are sleeping!
