Hi everyone, I hope your weekend was great. As you know, once a month I have been posting a success story from someone who started a home business. Today’s success story comes from someone that has only been doing it part time for about 3 months. His name is Brian Novak and I helped him for about 2 months. Brian was already on ebay, so he was pretty familar with the way ebay works. He was only a buyer on ebay and just didn’t know how to sell. Brian was a quick learner with lots of pep. My previous success stories were about people who had been running a home business for a year or more. I asked Brian to write a success story for my blog because he made such great progress under my wing, in such a short period of time.

My name is Brian Novak.I am 29 years old & live in Salem New Hampshire.I bought Lisas drop ship guide in November last year.I have been on Ebay for about 1 year.I only used Ebay to buy things up until I bought Lisas guide.I only bought her guide because she said she would help me start a home business.I emailed her & asked if she could teach me how to sell on ebay & she didn’t hesitate to say yes.She seems to be the only one around offering her help for 3 months if you buy her guide.What a great deal!Lisa helped me get started & more than I ever expected.She did research to find some wholesalers for me.She basically held my hand all the way through the starting process.I wanted to sell Playstations and Xboxes but we found out that you have to have a real storefront to do that.Some kind of licensing agreement with Sony & Microsoft stopped me from selling video game consoles online.I started by selling accessories for Playstation, Xbox, & the Wii.I sold more items in my first week on Ebay than I did since I signed up for Ebay.I had a feedback rating of 53 with 100% positives when I started.That probably played a little role in my success.But all the tips Lisa showed me really helped.I saved money & learned more than I ever expected.Lisa really knows her stuff when it comes to Ebay.I was surprised how easy it was.I wish I found Lisa a long time ago.I have unfortunately fallen for many get rich quick schemes.Here are the numbers since Lisa started helping me sell on Ebay.The first month of Lisa helping me I made a little under $1000.00 profit.The month of December I made over $5000.00!!She said it was probably because of Christmas.This month I already made over $2000.00 & should make about $2500.00 profit when all is said and done.I have to average over $1000.00 in sales for 3 months on Ebay to become a Power Seller.I should receive the Power Seller invitation email any day now.I am only selling on Ebay right now.But I have taken her advice about expanding into a website.I am having a professional website built & it should be done by the week of February 5th.I haven’t quit my day job yet.My wife doesn’t want me to quit my regular job until I can prove that I can make better money on Ebay.I don’t make as much on Ebay as my regular job yet.Maybe a couple more months and I will be making more money.But I am very happy with making over $2000.00 extra each month.

Thank you for all your help Lisa!I am very grateful that I met you.

I hope you all enjoyed this success story. I am happy Brain was willing to write about his success story. He is my new pride and joy. I worked hard to help him. He is actually putting what I taught him to good use. All he needed was someone to show him the ropes.

Thanks for reading my blog everyone, see you tomorrow.
