Plans for February

I haven’t played much Poker this month. I went deep in a low stakes rebuy tournament on the 1st of the month. $5k would have been a nice way to start off the month, but $42 will have to do. Actually, I’m down a bit from the handful of games I have played. Nothing significant though. Actually, this month I’m going to shift my attention from Poker to a couple of other things.

One is very straightforward – sell a product. An acquaintance of mine designed and manufactured a car product several years ago. He has about 250+ parts left and doesn’t have the time to invest in selling them. I’ll get a 50% cut if I can make these things disappear. The price point for this product is somewhere in the $15-$20 range. So I can make a decent chunk of change with barely any initial investment. I have considered making a webpage for the item, but to start off, I’m just going to be using ebay. Once I get a better idea of the demand for this product, I can take it a couple steps further. I should be posting my first item on ebay this weekend.

The other project that I’m going to be focusing on this month is a bit more complicated. The gist of this project is taking a bunch of existing parts and combining them into a user-friendly kit. The key to this project is going to be the sourcing of parts. I plan on putting about 8-12 items into this kit. I’m still in the planning stages on this one. It’s not a huge idea, but at least it will get me moving. You never know what types of things you can run into as long as you are moving.

I have a few other ideas I’m throwing around for the next few months. One step at a time for now.
