Small businesses are the backbone of the Illinois economy, and the Great Recession was tough on them.
Sell Everything — What I Learned Today It was a dream opportunity. In March 2013, my co-founder and I agreed to join MetaLab. I would be joining as Director of Labs to head up a new product division. Unfortunately, MetaLab’s office is located in Victoria, British Columbia — a full 2,300 miles away from where I was living in downtown St. Louis. Before signing the deal, João (my co-founder in Obsorb) and I spent two months in Victoria. Once I knew I’d be joining MetaLab, I assumed I’d just pack up and take everything with me. With that shock, I started seriously playing with the idea of selling everything and buying new once I got there. The first few days back in St. This time, I would act on those feelings. “You are not your things.” “We buy things we don’t need with money we don’t have to impress people we don’t like.” - Tyler Durden, Fight Club Below are just a few of the benefits I discovered throughout the process.

Sell Possessions Effectively Without Using eBay or Craigslist Selling a lot of things at once can be a daunting task, no matter how you choose to do it. Many like the yard sale route which always seems to be pretty effective. However, that option isn’t always available. Sometimes you don’t live in a prime location or it simply isn’t the season for yard sales. So what do you do then? Well, many move to one of the two popular online venues: eBay or Craigslist. Yep — I created a blog dedicated to selling my possessions. eBay and Craigslist are both great for many different, specialized cases but they couldn’t handle everything I needed to sell. Here are some steps to help you set up your own: Decide what you want to sell as well as take photos of the items. That’s basically it.
