Description

Personal Merchants only sell items that the owner gives them. You cannot sell any items to him/her, only buy from them. The owner of the merchant sets the price that the merchant sells it for. The merchant also takes a small cut of any money taken from a sale. You can buy a personal merchant contract from a trader for 10 silver coins.

Management

To manage your personal merchant locate in your inventory personal merchant contract and right click->manage. You must, then, name your merchant and select its gender. Now the way the definition for placing is phrased oddly. What it means is that no other creatures may be on the tile you are trying to plant the merchant on, it does not mean that no other creatures can be in the building.  
To add items to the merchant simply open a trade window and offer the items and the trader will automatically trade. Same for withdrawing items, if the trader has money he will give that to you as well.  
After placing the merchant you can manage it and you will be presented with the following screen. The price modifier will take the Get Price and multiply it by X number(1.4 by default). When dismissing make sure you take all your items out and money before dismissing.  
To change prices you can either locate the item in your inventory then right click->Price->Set Price or you can change it by giving the item to the merchant and then managing the contract. If your merchant is in a very busy place the latter isn't a good idea as it may be bought before you change the price. To be safe simply change the prices through the inventory.
