Hello, I have been buying and selling products locally using Craigslist, facebook yardsale pages, offerup ans so forth. I buy items from yardsales, flea markets and now plan on buying in bulk through auctions and other avenues. I stsrted buying used tools and reselling them. Then i started woth furniture. Now i basically buy and sell anything that is a good deal. Almost like a second hand store or pawn shop. I been reading and studying about local internet marketing and want to use it to automate my sales process. I spent weeks trying to put together a plan and a system but realized that I am trying to do it all myself. Now I am trying to figure out how to outsource my local internet marketing and lead generation. I am just starting out and basically on a shoestring as they say. What would be the best way to go about this? Should I outsource each area? Find a company to do it all? What should I start outsourcing first? Is there any course on outsourcing this?
Here is what I was thinking

Use fiver for most

Outsource yellow pages and other sites to build a contact list from each area

Advertise on facebook yardsale pages and Craigslist as I post items for sale

Get a website made with landing page for each target customer

Get customers to opt in for emaila and as soon as I get new product I csn email them a pic and description

Have all products on a website that people will have to sign up for access

I basically just want people to sign up to receive information on good deals I can pass along to them. For example a home improvement contractor will sign up and as I find good deals on tools and building materials I will email them or text them.
I was thinking of a website that I can have all my pics in categories like a classifed site or wordpress.

As you can see I'm all over the place. I would like to learn how to set it up myself but I need to spend my time in othrr areas right now. I know how valuable local internet marketing is and want to utilize it. I think i will be better off if I can get it set up for me by outsourcing it. I don't mind learning how to do that with a course or mentor. I just don't have time to figure it out myself.

Anyone have any recommendations, ideas, insight, assistance It would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you warrior forum!

    p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; } As per my experience you should start building a website which can facilitate all your requirements and also give you added benefits.
    I had read all your needs and I feel a ecommerce kind of a website is what exactly you need at the moment, as this will have all the features to cover your marketing needs, contact info gathering and management, facebook advertising and displaying of all your products at one place along with online buying facility for your products.


    Again I understand that this kind of ecommerce website development might not be known to you so I recommend outsourcing of the work.
    I work with a software outsourcing company where we build ecommerce websites and other solutions so you can get in touch with me here for more consulting about your needs.
    Thank You.

  • I would also recommend you build your own website then start marketing your website using different marketing tactics such as SEO and SMm> If building your own site is too much for you to start with, you can try to sell your products on shopping sites like Amazon, Ebay, or Esty. If you want to build your own list, you can do so with a landing page and promote your products in your newsletters.
