Doba is the new Wholesale Marketer

As you've probably noticed, last month Wholesale Marketer moved all of its services to Doba. This move comes as the result of many things, the biggest reason being our desire to simplify.

Previously, Wholesale Marketer and its mother company, Doba, appeared as separate entities. In order to simplify the lives of everybody involved, including those of our members, we decided to roll everything up into Doba.

For a few weeks as we work out the problems inherit to a large migrational project like this, it may seem as if things are anything but simple. But in time, we know that you'll come to agree that things really are better at Doba.

In addition to the name change, we have added, and will continue to add in the future, new services and features to make your life easier and better. Keep an eye out for those in the coming months. We thank you for your continuing support as we continue to strive toward being the ultimate product-sourcing solution.

Doba CEO coauthors eBay Inventory the Smart Way, now available

Product sourcing expert and Doba CEO, Jeremy Hanks, has added another book to his credit. On April 1 Jeremy's new book, eBay Inventory the Smart Way, was released.

Coauthored with eBay expert Joseph T. Sinclair, eBay Inventory the Smart Way discusses how to:

• form relationships with wholesalers and obtain dealer status
• increase profits with drop shipping and co-op advertising
• deal directly with manufacturers and wholesalers
• "work" trade shows, and take advantage of trade organizations
• tap into pawnbrokers' inventories

and much more.
