It is a great thing to be an online seller. During the last 10 or a little more years the technology made a great step forward. Nowadays you have an access to tons of valuable information that helps you make decent and wise decisions and make them real fast. Moreover, being a small business one has a great advantage over big ones – maneuverability. You turn faster on two feet than on 2000 feet. You might explore new markets easier without experiencing financial losses.
Internet store means that you simply need to find trustworthy wholesale suppliers. If you don’t find ones your business is most likely to flop sooner or later. Here, at dropshiparea, we try to provide you with reliable suppliers with the help of which your online business (of course under your wise management) will flourish.
But if you want to be a successful retailer you have to learn to see the big picture and create a plan that considers all the possible effects of your activities. In order to do it here are a couple of practical tips for you to follow:
- Don’t quit your Major job
You might start your online business only as a part-time one. Keep in mind that it usually takes from 6 months to a year to get your business going. And don’t want to make your house payment to hinge upon your company being an overnight success, do you? Initially do what you can manage alone and if you see that everything goes quite all right then you can try to switch in full-time.
General stores are no longer effective. It is even more relevant as considers online stores – people are searching for specialized shops. All you need to do is find some product which is in demand but cannot be accessed at a general store and focus on this product.
Even if you do not plan to start an Internet business remember that the Internet can do you a lot of good. Keep in mind that online presence increases your customer base by millions of new customers. Moreover, the Internet is a great method and tool for promoting your business (locally, nationally or internationally).
What do you need to be a successful retailer? Creativity, energy, and a drive to keep going when you fail. Did you know that before creating the successful Microsoft 3.0 Bill Gates created two failures – Microsoft 1.0 and 2.0? But he didn’t give up and now you can see the result. It is the refusal to give up at the crucial moment that separates a successful seller from an unsuccessful one.

Do you really need branding?
All of us, online retailers, want the clients to come and spend money with us online. But in order to ensure that you have to make them feel confident that they are dealing with a legitimate seller. As long as they give you their personal information and even the number of the credit cars, they simply need to be sure you won’t cheat on them. If it is obvious that you run your business from home, they might not feel that confident to give you their personal info. So what is the conclusion from all this talk? You need to create a reliable brand you customers will trust and come over and over again.
What is a Brand?
In fact, a brand is a something that makes you stand out in a crowd of other online retailers.
- Making a brand you create a kind of expectation in the mind of your client. This expectation includes everything from your customer service to the quality of the products you sell. A brand is much more than a name and a logo, it is you client’s attitude and vision of your company.
- Moreover, a brand is your reputation. With your brand name come certain other values which are expected from your products: quality, fashion etc. If you brand is a worthy one, clients are likely to buy products from you than from your competitors even if they cost a little more.
Branding is a non-stop process
Explains Eileen Parzek (SohoItGoes.com):
“Consistently use a brand design throughout all your different marketing material… It gives a sense you’re bigger than you really are.”
Concentrate on your marketing messages and make sure that these messages are traces throughout your entire policy. If you have print material make sure it doesn’t clash with your web-site design and logos.
Another important aspect is your web-page. If it looks professional and finished the clients are more likely to both buy things from you and come to your page again. The thing is that customers associate the quality of the site with the quality of the services provided, fancy that you have poor-quality web-site…Do you really thing that people want to make purchases even though they know that the quality of the customers service is from the bottom of the barrel.
Never stop evolving
Parzek continues:
“[Branding] is not something you ever stop doing. You have to be conscious of it at all times.”
A good brad always reflects the current evolution of the market and shows all the changes.
