I sell questionable merchandise how do I boost my profits?




Answers: The general rules of economics apply to all merchandise, even the questionable stuff.
1) Depending on how you "obtain" your merchandise, getting it in bulk will save you time and you should be able to negotiate a discount (if you are purchasing it)
2) Supply & demand - control the market! If you are the only supplier in that particular location, or there is something unique about your merchandise, you can decide how much you sell and how much you sell it for. Just tell your buyers that there aren't many around and as a result you have to charge higher prices - they don't have to know you have another 100 at home!
3) Sell "extras" - interestingly enough, big business make a large chunk of their profits in add-ons, not on their big name items. I once heard that Microsoft was losing money on the Xbox console, but they didn't mind since people would then spend heaps on the more profitable games and other accessories. I'm not sure what you're selling, but get creative! You probably think it sounds stupid in your situation, just think about it though. The question is: what do people need/want when they are using your merchandise? eg after buying their movie ticket at the cinema, customers want popcorn.

It doesn't matter that you are in the questionable merchandise business, the standard business theories still apply.
Questionable merchandise? Sounds to me like you are selling drugs or maybe stolen property. You figure it out.
