Start up business - sunglasses

Some of you have been keeping up with my newest venture on one of my other blogs. What I am doing is buying a product at a low price and getting ready to market it for a bit of profit. I'm doing this by buying Wholesale Sunglasses. These sunglasses are UV 400, which Elizabeth told me today is exactly the protection level they sell at the eye doctor's office where she works.

I've also purchases a few other items to kick things off such as microfiber cloths for cleaning glasses, microfiber bags for storing them, a tilt-up display case, and some visor clips for your car. The clips I got are various solid colors. Brandon suggested that I also get the ones that are various colors with flames on them because they will appeal to teenagers more.

I've been buying from CTS Wholesalers for about a month now, or so, and they've delivered everything they said they would. So I'm very happy with them.

Now I've learned that they have a blog so you can find out even more good Sunglasses Information. I've got it open in another window and am reading it while I share all this with you. They even give the history of the familiar Aviator Sunglasses. I thought that was neat.

I'll keep you updated either here or on the other blog about how this new business is going. Any ideas about how and where to start selling them?

    Hi there,

    I found your site because you answered my post on the PayPerPost forums.

    I just read your post about wholesale sunglasses and wondered how you plan to sell them? The reason I aks is that I'm a web developer and among my many online ventures, I've started developing an online pet supply shop and thought if you had any questions, I might be able to offer some guidance in that area. I'm not trying to schill for a job, just offering advice if you need it;)

    I really planned to sell them locally, maybe at a flea market or just set up where other "yard sales" set up on a parking lot some Saturday mornings. If all else fails, I might try eBay. But if you have any suggestions, I'm always open to them.
