The first rule - to determine the customer needs
You should start with the selection of products that you sell, and understanding of the needs of the audience to which you are targeting. I ordered a lot of clothes for themselves on Taobao, because it was much cheaper than buying in the shops in our town. Then, my friends, too, are interested in this opportunity, and I became a book for them too. It became apparent that this can earn.
When ordering goods guided by fashion trends and, of course, on the price, since it is she still remains one of the key arguments in favor of my store. I keep track of new items that appear on the market of clothes and accessories, and immediately add these items to the store. I try not to do too much margin and to keep prices at a level lower than in other online stores.
Think about who you are targeting, opening his shop. What is important to your audience: low prices, original products and trendy things.
The second rule - to find a good site for the store opening
The first store I opened in social networks, and then I heard about ToBox, I saw the advertisement. Because this platform is free, I decided to try it.
To open a shop, do not need to understand programming, and some more complex things, the registration process takes a couple of minutes.
In my store on ToBox easily create a card catalog: upload, category, description, and price. Orders are generated without my participation, I can only communicate with customers and to deliver the goods.
I was pleased with ToBox quickly appeared the first orders. The creators of the site to help develop, provide clues that can be improved. For example, it is advised to add a description to the product or to hold a competition with prizes. they also promote my store through their pages in social networks. After these actions, there are many new buyers.
Now I have about seven orders come with weekly ToBox, minimum order amount - 1500 rubles.
In trading floor also has a mobile app so that you can communicate with customers on the go. Now orders come from all over Russia, and since I am in Vladivostok, often posts from buyers come at night, but it's not so bad.
The third rule - respect customers
Service in the store is not as important as the products that are sold there. Buyers appreciate the respectful and, most likely, will return again and again to your store if it will be felt.
When you order from China things, still there is a chance to get not quite what expected. I rarely happens that a thing is absolutely not like the picture, but the quality is sometimes not good enough. I always returned to the buyer money or offer to replace the order, if I see that the goods came unworthy qualities. And those customers with whom there were such troubles, it is returned to my store, they appreciate these guarantees.
The fourth rule - find reliable suppliers
I have been working with Chinese shops through an intermediary. Not immediately, I found it had been before the others, and I did not like much, especially the high price of shipping.
I start looking for other options. It was not so easy, but now I have a very good supplier with which to work comfortably. I was completely satisfied with the price, delivery speed and quality of work in general.
In fact, from a supplier dependent on all of the work shop. If he will have to substitute constantly, sending the defective product to pull time - a successful trade will not work.
Unlike many shops supplying clothes from China, I have very little time for delivery - about two weeks. That I stand out from competitors in your niche.
The fifth rule - constantly evolve
I'm constantly working on the store. Expands the range, looking for the most attractive offers from Chinese sellers, the product to be qualitative, and the price is not excessive, taking part in all the actions to promote the shop, which offers ToBox playground.
Speaking about plans for the future, of course, I will continue to develop its store because it does not require from me any material investments, and sales growth is very good.
I even found a mate, as more and more work and I do not always have time to cope with everything, and the shop should remain at a high level. Constantly need to add fresh goods to sustain the interest of buyers have time to deliver orders and communicate with customers.
Perhaps this is the basic rules that help me in my store development. Many people are afraid to start the business, but in fact no special difficulties in this. Work to be a lot, but I think it's worth it. So decide if a long time about this dream!
