Super Affiliate Or Power Seller- Which Is Best For You?

You see a lot written about super affiliates that earn money online to the tune of anywhere from $500,000 to over a million dollars a year. It's true some of them do earn that much money online. Without their own product, just hyping someone else's product and they do this year after year.

They are undoubtedly very rich. They also have the big homes, fancy cars and boats that they show you. They aren't lying. They also tell you that you can do the same thing and get rich practically overnight. This is where they may be stretching the truth a bit. Quite a bit. What they don't tell you about is all the toil, sweat and tears that they went through to get to where they are today. They also don't tell you that their numbers are few and far between.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you can't be a super affiliate. If you pay the price in time and money, you might make it. The key word here is time. Do you have enough income now to fight the battle, spend the time it will take you to become a super affiliate? Or do you need money now?

If you need money now and I'm not talking about getting rich overnight. Just some quick extra cash to pay some bills. Your rent or mortgage payment, groceries, clothes for the kids. Maybe you are unemployed and have some time on your hands.

Why not try eBay? You don't need any technical knowledge or special training. With eBay people just like you and I are making money online everyday. No large investment is needed or a product. In fact, you probably have things laying around the house, in the attic or garage that you could turn into quick cash.

The other day I heard of a woman that had a gold coin that was her grandfathers. It had been laying in a drawer for many years. She put it on eBay and it was sold the same day for over $2000.

Now, you might not have any gold coins laying around, but just ordinary things can bring you quick money. As you progress and get more familiar with how the online auctions work, you can start buying from wholesalers and selling at a huge profit.

Drop shipping is when the product distributor takes care of all the shipping for you. Rather than ordering stock in bulk, the stock remains with the distributor. Then, when you make a sale, you send an email to the distributor and they pack up the item and send it straight to the customer with your company label on the box. Drop shipping is a very popular option with sellers because it takes a lot of the grunt work out of selling on eBay.

Once you become more familiar with eBay, you might become bit by the bug to become a power seller.
Becoming an eBay PowerSeller includes many advantages, not the least of which is the PowerSeller icon which is placed next to a seller's user ID. This lets buyers know that they are dealing with a seller that has a very high ranking in terms of both product sales and customer satisfaction. Members of the PowerSeller program also get many other benefits. Such as prioritized customer support, promotional offers, eBay promotional merchandise, advanced selling education, opportunities to participate in research, and other special rewards.

PowerSellers also have access to additional product sources in the eBay Reseller Marketplace where manufacturers, liquidators, and wholesalers can sell excess inventory in bulk to eBay PowerSellers looking for items to resell.

To qualify for the PowerSeller program, sellers must consistently sell a significant volume of items, maintain a 98% positive feedback rating and provide a high level of service to their buyers.

eBay provides PowerSellers with tools like Seller Dashboard that is a quick reference guide to help you monitor your progress to achieve your goals and earn seller discounts. But, even if you are not a power seller eBay gives its sellers plenty of help and advice.

So although becoming a super affiliate or a power seller on eBay can make you rich, it will not happen overnight. That being said if you need some quick cash, check out eBay. Start small and then turn on the jets!
