INSTRUCTOR INFORMATION
In 1999, Bret began selling on eBay to help pay medical bills that his family had accrued. Starting from nothing, he was able to build a successful business to supplement the income from his full-time job. Bret operated this eBay business for less than two years. In the final month before selling it, the business turned $10,000 in profit. Bret then sold the business - selling it for enough to completely pay off the medical bills.
Since then, Bret has built a second successful eBay business. He has sold everything from tube socks to large signs. In total, Bret has nearly 20 years of experience selling on eBay. |
