Can I list Online Selling as a Job Skill on my Resume?

Monday, December 21st, 2009

I am a college student close to graduating and have done some internships and part-time work but don’t have much experience.

I was wondering if I can list online selling on eBay and Amazon as a skill or part-time job for my resume? I’ve earned some good money and it has helped me pay off tutition fees.

Does it count with employers?

How does selling things online work?

My mom and I are considering selling clothes on a website called ‘etsy’ and we want to know how the online sale process works. How does the money get back to us? Do you have to pay to open shop on one of these sites? Is shipping and handling included in the price?

Are there tax benefits if I get a business lisense for selling things on online auctions?

Friday, November 27th, 2009

I’m thinking about turning my online selling into a business, and I’m trying to get a feel for the tax-related pros and cons of making it official.

Here are 2 questions:
(1) I understand that I can write off business expenses on my tax returns. That includes computer equipment, trips overseas to purchase merchandise, etc. But I’ve never itemized my tax return before. Would I get more money back if I start a business, and then itemize my deductions rather than just taking the default deduction like I always do?

(2) If I make my online selling into an official business, will I have to pay extra business-related taxes?
