It’s mainly for clothing sellers. In fairness I spent 3 months in the group & it totally transformed my business. You only really need a couple of months in there to learn to optimise listings & set up the correct process. It is quite clicky in there though & some people have no idea what they are doing but if you listen to the right people in the group it’s worth joining for a few months.

Yeah the problem is people who want everything for very little effort, they wanted the "3 easy steps" method that makes you rich overnight. Unfortunately for the lazy people tech teaches you how to build a business properly which actually takes a lot of hard work and people don't like to hear that.

I love the technsport group, I have learned so much from it and it has changed my business, mindset and even lives completely. I think the group is what you make of it. He never promised to give you sourcing leads or make ebay easy. It's a business mindset group where we focus on growing our business and mindset of success. It's not hard to find a pinned post in the Facebook group and its pointless to answer the same thing 100 times if you already provided the information numerous times. We all need to make some effort to seek the knowledge as well. I really enjoyed hearing from you in the group, and I'm sorry you won't be in the UK call anymore. 😊 And my quote was " we are only worried about making all the money on an item compared to some of the money when we are bad at sourcing." Keep smashing it 💪

Personally I just got any advice they gave for free but took it with a pinch of salt when Chris got kicked off Ebay.

Wrong. What if the value of the item went DOWN from when you listed it? The item will algorithmically be better off by ending-and-selling-similar at a lower price.
