Do you want to save time and money on shipping?

Shipping is one of the most frustrating areas for online sellers (even if you have been doing this for a while). The good news is: it does not have to be.

That is what this book is all about.

It is a short, easy to understand guide, which will help you get over your shipping phobias and help you to start packaging and shipping your items like a pro.

By the time you are done reading this book, you will have a better understanding of -

1. How to store items after you post them for sale, so they are both easy to find and safe from possible damage. 
2. What your shipping options are. We will cover shipping with the United States Postal Service (USPS), Federal Express (Fed Ex), common carriers, and home pickup. 
3. What services you need to use to comply with your selling venue's rules. Examples of this are delivery confirmation, signature delivery, and miscellaneous tracking options. 
4. How to use eBay and PayPal shipping solutions to print your labels. We will discuss other shipping solutions such as Stamps.com and Endicia, and why you may want to use them. 
5. Finally, we will tackle international shipping. You will learn what's required from you to sell internationally, how to fill out customs forms, how to set customer delivery expectations, and how to simplify international shipping. 

You should be able to read this short guide in under and hour, and immediately be able to use the information you learn to ship smarter, quicker, and less expensively.
