I’m sure that you have noticed that there is a bit of a crisis happening here in the UK currently with fuel and energy costs soaring to the point that a lot of people are going to struggle hard.
It’s made worse by a government who appear to only want to help themselves more than the hard working people of Britain.
I have seen a few people hit social media declaring that their energy costs have gone up so much that they simply cannot afford to live.
There have been some people saying that it has become that bad they have been forced to decide between eating or putting the heating on.
They say that they can’t afford to do both.
I sympathise with those people.
Life can be hard and it is no fun when you are forced to make decisions each day in your personal life because of the decisions other people have made elsewhere.
Increasing energy costs are acceptable when it’s because you have cranked the heating up full and turned your home into a sauna because you wanted to and you knew that you could afford it.
But it’s not okay when the increase cost is completely out of your control.
A few pounds a month increase is one thing… but bills have doubled for many here in the UK.
How does the average person deal with that?
Not long after seeing people sharing their worries and concerns about how they are going to struggle because of the increased cost of living, I saw one guy on Instagram giving tips on how to manage the rising costs…
One of the things he said was that people should stop saying that they ‘cannot afford it’ and instead ask themselves ‘how can I afford it?’
That’s very easy to say… however, it’s good advice.
You can’t change what you can’t change, but you can change what you can change.
You may not be able to control the increasing living costs, but you do control how much money you make each month.
This guy also went on to say that if you were to list two items each day on eBay and make just £3 profit on each item, you would have around £180 extra each month… he was working on a 30 day month.
That £180 extra each month over a year is £2,160. That’s got to help a lot.
£3 is not a lot of money and so it shouldn’t be hard to make an extra £3 profit per item.
Everyone should be able to make £6 a day.
However… there can be quite a lot of work involved with selling items on eBay.

It is better if you can source and sell items which give you a higher amount of profit meaning that you need to sell less and do less work.
If you were able to sell an item and earn £6 profit, you have 50% less work to do than if you made just £3 per item.
Unless you decide to sell multiple numbers of the same product you will need to photograph and list each item.
Every item you sell will need to be packaged and taken to a post office to be sent.
Ideally if you want to sell on eBay I say find something which gives you the most profit for the least amount of work.
This is vitally important if you are going to do this in your spare time to help raise some much need money to help pay increasing living costs.
The last thing you need is to swamp whatever little time you do have spare with hours of work selling cheap items on eBay.
The guy giving this advice was right when he said that people need to focus on creating…
Routines, Habits and Systems
To be successful you need to develop a routine of adding two items to eBay each day. This routine, develops into a habit.
A system is something which makes everything a lot easier and quicker saving you a lot of time and effort.
So for example, having a template which you use for your listings and a corner set aside where you take the same four photos of each product would help you to get your listings online faster.
This is about working smarter and more efficient and that includes finding the right product to sell which will give you higher profits and requires less work.
Would you rather carry several large heavy parcels to the post office which gives you a combined profit of £50 or would you rather post a couple of light envelopes which give you a combined profit of several hundred pounds or more?
If you chose the latter, then maybe you should consider copying Martin Fanshaw.
Martin regularly makes profits of thousands of pounds by simply buying an item from one person then selling it to another person for a much higher price than the one he paid.
He doesn’t simply buy an item and then wait for a customer to come along; it’s not your usual business model. He only buys an item when he knows he has someone to sell it too.
Martin sits nicely between two people and creams off a large profit for simply organising the transfer of an item from one to the other.
All the items he transfers are easy to handle and can be popped into an envelope or a jiffy bag. No big or bulky items here to post.
There is very little heavy or physical work to do and yet it can generate huge profits.
Martin once turned a £30,000 profit in just two days… by simply selling items to people who desperately wanted to own them.

PS… Once you know what to sell and where to buy them, you could sell them on sites like eBay if you wish but you won’t need to focus on making small £3 profits as suggested by the guy on Instagram.
One item alone could potentially make you £180 profit.
