If you are looking to start your own small business but don’t know what to sell, here are some tips on where to find great start up business ideas.
Many people fail to realize that there are thousands of great business ideas right in front of their eyes, you just have to know where to look. For instance, looking to find a great item to sell on large auction sites, the best place to find items to sell on auction sites is to look carefully at these sites. The best thing about Ebay is that all the sales data is right in front of you. Look through the different categories and find a product that is selling well.
You can look at how many of these products are selling, daily or weekly, how many merchants are selling this product, and how much money does each product usually sell for. Selling an item with this type of information makes the entire process much easier. This information is far too valuable to pass up. If you still have questions, hit the merchant forums.

Ebay has a secion for What folks want right now. This is a good place to look for ideas. Check out the popularity of words in google and yahoo search. Yahoo has search marketing that I find very helpful as a research tool.
Use the tips above, brainstorm with your friends and go for it. An online business in particular is easy to start and very cost effective. Good Luck.
