Could Sara Palin Become The Hottest Niche on eBay?
When it comes to instant hot niches related to news stories and events, Cafe Press usually leads the way. Sara Palin is Hot on Cafe Press and becoming hot on eBay.
After Sara Palin’s speech to the Republican convention, I went to Cafe Press, the site where independent online sellers create and sell merchandise like tee shirts, coffee mugs, bumper stickers and so on. Sara Palin was on the front page. When I did a search, I saw over 500 separate items for sale.
Next I went to eBay. At the time of this writing, there are only about 20 listings for Sara Palin merchandise on eBay, but the number of listing is growing by the minute.
Cafe Press is set up so you can design a tee shirt (or coffee mug, ballcap, etc.), upload the design to Cafe Press, put it in your Cafe Press store (sort of like an eBay store) and people can order it online. The best part is that Cafe Press does the manufacturing and shipping for you –all you do is collect the money.
Once you have an item on Cafe Press ready to ship, you list the item on eBay. When you make a sale and are paid for the item, you just go into your Cafe Press account, pay the wholesale amount and they ship it to the customer for you. This is basically an instant drop ship business.

With the speach she did the other day at the convention, she can have my vote.
