I agree with earnsomecoin: AVOID FFA pages. It is a thing of the past, and nobody will actually see you ads.

I know because I owned an FFA page months ago, and used to send automatic confirmation message with my offers, but... No sales at all.

I don't forsee much success with selling soccer stuff.

There is success in any niche - you just have to know how to promote.

Um hum um Not really coin. Some niches suck. Selling physical good online reults in failure 99% of the time. The failure rate for selling tangible goods is higher than intangible goods especially if the goods have to be varied such as shoes.

Yea, also 83% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Um hum is that all?

Anyway, it is a known fast that 80-95% of small biz will fail and if the dotcom crash of 2000 taught us anyting is that selling tangible goods online doesnt work too well. Pets.com, furniture.com, ect Infact the dotcom bubble showed that selling online in general usually ends in failure.

I wasn't necessarily talking about online success. However, it’s more about being creative and finding what you can use and how to use it.

For instance, I knew a guy who owned a 'chef' store in a shopping mall. He wanted to make money online. I told him to find something in your store to focus on. It should be small and easy to ship and maybe even a collectible item. His hot sauces were perfect. Out of thousands of products, by going online with this one item made him very popular. I helped him create his own label for hot sauce and set up dealers all over the US and we distributed his brand to many local restaurants. His website address was on the label. He attributes much of his success to this one idea. He later sold the store and only sells hot sauces online.

I have many stories like this. Even for soccer stuff, one can use the Internet to enhance your profitability. Any business can make and save big money by using the Internet creatively.

Product size doesn't really matter. Just about everything you touch today is there because of an online transaction of some sort. Internet and Intranets are very important for business these days. And not just the big guys. Look at those who make their living on eBay. It's real and it's very possible!

I think the statistics you are referring to are from people who fail due to lack of creativity and determination.
