PROFITABLE HOBBY – SECOND HAND BOOK STALL
From time to time I put articles like this here. I justify this because mental health is very important to us all, particulary as we age. And what better way to keep the mind alert than by having a little hobby business on the side?
Anyone can easily run a second hand book stall at weekend markets.
You source the books you have for sale from charity shops.
You’d buy them for $1 then sell them for $5.
A simple fold-away table is all you’ll need initially for your stall.
Your major expense is the $25 fee that you have to pay to each market, each week, for your space.
In four hours, you should be able to sell at least 20 books (revenue $100).
Your expenses for the day would be $20 for stock, and the $25 fee.
Profit $55.
Over a year, your profits would be north of $3000. |
