Books and Business

From the beginning of my time on Whaleshares, it's been my intention to share business principles and recommend books that explain those principles. I also want to help people gain the skills to be able to have success on their own.

Sales

Learning how to sell things is foundational for gaining success. In my post I'm Selling This Book and Hamilton Bookmark for 80 WLS, I present the idea and sell it at the same time.

I'm thankful that @john-robert bought it. He bought both the book and the idea.

The Concept

To show that trading crypto for cash is easy. You just have to make an offer and provide the right incentives for people to take you up on that offer.

The fiat paper currency does make a good bookmark. It's likely that in the future, that will be a more valuable use for it than it has in the marketplace, as fiat currency systems always fail - it just takes some time.

But until it does fail, you can spend it. So I'll be offering books and "bookmarks" for sale. But it's more than just that particular item that I'm selling. I'm selling you on the idea that you can easily make trades.

You don't have to list it on an exchange. You don't have to wait for a third party. You can make the trade!

The Idea Will Spread

I invite you to create similar listings. You can do it with a book and a paper currency "bookmark" like I have done. Put up the offer and see if someone takes it. It's easiest to offer shipping just within your own country or even make a deal with friends that you can meet in person (to save on shipping costs).

If you do this, let me know. I'd love to help you promote your offer.

Watch for more of these from me!

In addition to encouraging others to list offers like this, I'll be listing more books and "bookmarks", too. Watch for them. Maybe you will want to trade some of your WLS for a good book and a bit of cash.

I look forward to reading your comments on this idea. Thanks so much for reading!
