Learn – First of all, you want to learn how ebay works. Create an account, look around at all the different links and tabs and familiarize yourself with the website. Also, learn how to use paypal, the tips on how to sell items easier, and how to list items. I suggest that you sell a few things of your own first to get a feel of how it works.
Advertise – Once you understand completely how ebay works, advertise your new business. Create flyers, write blogs, and use direct mail to allow people to become aware of your new business. Advertising is the best way for people to find out about you. They will understand what you do, and will be aware that you can sell their items for money.
Percentage – Once you know of a people you can sell for, decide how much you’re going to take when they sell an item. I would recommend doing a percentage of the sale. For example, tell everyone you’re willing to sell if you can get 10% or 15% of each item you sell.
Sell – Now, put their items up for sale and get ready to sell them. The best way to sell items is by ending the auction for Sunday and by taking a lot of pictures. Pictures are the best way to sell items for people.
Overtime this will become extremely easy, and you will have a ton of people asking you for help. If you do a good job for your clients, they will refer their friends and family members to you as well. This can be a growing business that has a lot of potential! Good luck!
