Please give us a short summary of your website?
We created The PowerSellers Union,as a place that anyone can come to learn how to sell products online.There are a lot of other places that "claim to do this."However once you sign up for them the customer service is over.Alot of people want to be successful online,but just dont know how to get started.We not only provide over 750 legitimate dropshippers,but also full customer service to help at anytime.
What inspired you to launch your own website?
I got involved in selling online about 10 years ago and there was no real help for people then,and now when you google the word drop shipping 95% of the listings that come up are scam sites,waiting to take someone else for there money.I wanted to have a safe place for people to learn how to sell online.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
Sept 08 The Power sellers union

What makes your website different from other, similar offerings?
Well to start with Support! Other companies have forgot all about that these days.I also update my listings biweekly we started with 300 drop shippers and now have around 750.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
Well in January we are launching the next phase of the PSU it is WWW.PSUSHOP.COM basically a world wide marketplace where our members can buy and sell products without any fees.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
I have put everything I have into this and my goal is for me to be successful,but I can not justify success unless I have made my members a success.I could sit here and talk about me making money,but I am in this to help others make money.I had a man signup the other day he had gotten laid off from his job and borrowed money to get a membership to my site.He has 3 kids and cant get a job because of the economy.To me that is an honor.I cant honestly say I am successful until I help others to be successful.As far as time.I have put more hours into this than anything in my life.
