Doing the #2017FlipChallenge
Feb 23, 2017 · 2 min read

As you guys may know, I love the “process” of making money. When I started writing code in college, the process I went through from building an app to then selling the app meant the world to me.
Now as I’m growing my new software company, I often times turn to my digital mentor, Gary Vaynerchuk, who announced on his youtube channel last month, the #2017FlipChallenge.
Essentially the challenge is:
- Find and sell items in your home that you do not use anymore and have no sentimental value to you (i.e. books, magazines, old toys, etc.)
- If you do not have any of these items go to garage sales or flea markets on the weekends and buy these type of items to flip online.
- If you cannot do the aforementioned buy items online (ebay, craigslist, amazon) and flip them across other platforms .
- Use the Amazon, Ebay, and Craigslist app to make it easier for yourself.
- Be honest, do not funnel money into your page or have someone else buy your items for you.
In the words of the wise Barney Stinson, “CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!”

As I write this post, I’m taking in inventory of items to sell.
I already have a few leads on old school gaming consoles that I can flip. I will keep you posted on my progress.
