Six years ago, Tim Siegel, then 30, was going places. Specifically, he
was driving from Minnesota to Guatemala, after a friend convinced him
that he could make a lot of money selling medical equipment down there.
It was worth a shot. Siegel's degree in criminology had led him into a
job managing telemarketers, which he considered the worst job he ever
had, and then into management at a hospitality company. The upside of
his second job was that he got to visit far-flung lands like Guam and
Malaysia. So when a friend convinced him of the financial gains to be
found selling medical equipment in Guatemala, Siegel figured he would,
at the very least, get to do something he loves: travel.
True enough. But while the 3,000-mile trip by truck--and school bus--was
at first an adventure, it eventually became exhausting. Siegel's friend
had been right. Because Guatemala's infrastructure is so poor, those with
money are willing to pay top dollar for what they need to buy. As Siegel
says, "If a surgical table is worth $1,000 here, an end user in Guatemala
would pay two to three times [that]. That is also true with vehicles or
just about anything else. So many people currently export down there,
I would guess it's very tough to make a profit now."
But not back then. Siegel would always sell his vehicle after all the
goods were sold, then fly home. But it was still a challenging journey.
In 1999, the same friend suggested he try selling his merchandise on
eBay, and Siegel leapt at the chance. A fetal monitor bought for $250
sold for $500, and Siegel knew he was never going back to Guatemala. Today,
Siegel has an eBay-based company called Matrix Medical that sells mostly
medical and dental equipment to buyers around the world, with about 5
percent of sales from other products.
In a recent month, he brought in $36,000, and his 2005 gross sales should
be just under half a million dollars.
"It's nice not risking my life driving 3,000 miles," says Siegel.
"These days, I'll buy anything, because I know I can sell it. My
confidence level has risen a lot. I'm sure without eBay, I'd have been
successful, but it's hard to say what would have happened. Would I have
kept going to Guatemala and crashed somewhere? Now I can buy something
and literally have the money for it today, as opposed to waiting."
And driving.
