Start Your Own Garage Sale Business

Since 2004, Ben Weissenstein (founder of Grand Slam Garage Sales) has been refining his business model for start-to-finish garage sales. Now, drawing from his own experience building and running this unique concept, Ben is delivering the tools you need to start your own garage sale business and realize success.

With this tried and true concept, you can spend as much or as little time as you want on your business—you can even manage it with another full-time job. It's totally up to you. All of our tools are now available to you, packaged so that you can choose what's right for your business and budget.

It’s Your Time and Money, So You Decide

Garage SaleThe great thing about owning your own business is that you get to make all the decisions. So, you’ll have a business that works for you. And, this is a business anyone can do. Whether you’re a teacher, high school student, college student, stay-at-home mom, successful business person or a retiree looking for something new—you can supplement or substantiate your income with our proven technique. Here’s how flexible it is:

You decide how much time you want to work

Only have 6 hours a week, you can do it. Want to put in 25? You can do that too. It’s totally up to you.

You decide how much to invest

If you want to start out small and grow gradually, you can. But, if you’re industrious and want to do multiple sales in one weekend from the get-go, then invest a little more up front.

You decide how big you want your business to be

Just want a little extra cash for some weekend fun or some money to pay for your rent or car payment? You can manage that. And, if you’re looking for a thriving business and growing income, set your goals high and then go for it.

You decide how involved you want to be

If you want to run your business solo, that’s definitely an option. But, if you don’t have time and still want extra money, you can hire others to run your business for you.

Remember, making money is work. We’re not going to kid you into believing that you can sit back and watch the money roll in without lifting a finger. That’s not how it works. And we’re not sitting here saying this can make you millions of dollars. But, with our proven strategy even without tons of work, you should be able to bring in some extra cash. Just think about it—one to two sales a weekend should net you anywhere from $200 - $600 per weekend – that’s an extra $800 - $2,400 a month! Not too bad for a relatively small amount of work especially considering there is lots of potential and the business is a fun business to run.

Of course, we can't make any income guarantees as so much is up to you. See Earnings Disclaimer for more info.
