Best Online Shops to Buy and Sell Online
Amazon Online Shop
Amazon is an online marketplace where buyers and sellers are given the platform to buy and sell their goods from all over the world and they make sure products are delivered to the doorsteps of buyers. Before deciding to trade on Amazon there are so many things to take into consideration;
- Amazon will take a percentage of the amount.
- You have to put into consideration, the distribution of your goods thus having more than hundreds of distributors world wide to ensure you product gets to the final consumer. This also beats the issue of unnecessary competition with people selling almost the same product with you because the sign up process in Amazon is very simple and it easily admits just any seller.
- You should also be mindful of the products you want to sell as Amazon has their own retailer. These retailers tend to rank on the search for a product you both have.
- While selling your product on Amazon, you must play by their rules, one of which is not building any customers relationship.
- Every transaction on amazon is a one time thing thus if the same customer comes to order for the same product they will be referred to another seller’s product as there are thousands of seller’s product on the site waiting for their product to be sold.
- Unless you have a registered trademark, good content and branding already, Amazon brand will over power your brand.
EBay Online Store
