More and more types of buying and selling businesses are going online. One of these types is the sale of yarn. Opening an online yarn store is relatively easy, just a few simple steps.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, think over the supplier scheme. The choice in this case is really huge - you can consider local producers, yarn shops and even Russian and foreign online yarn shops as suppliers. The key factors at this stage are product cost, distance, and shipping costs. Remember to keep the vendor as low as possible to avoid direct buying from a supplier. Think over the assortment and periodically replenish it.
Step 2
Register a legal entity to ensure the legality of your activities. At the moment, the simplest form of organization is individual entrepreneurship, and the most convenient form of taxation is the purchase of a patent or a simplified form of taxation. To avoid misunderstandings with the tax office, document all the transactions you make.
Step 3
Use the services of a third party company to open the site. You can either use a ready-made template on marketplaces such as arbooz.com, or order a site on a separate hosting. The first option is more economical to operate, but at the same time, the second option opens up more opportunities for creating a unique design and does not add unnecessary competitors, as in the first case. Duplicate your website on a social network, invite friends and other website users to it to ensure the best dissemination of information about your activities.
Step 4
Promote your business actively through link exchanges, as well as through advertising in search engines such as yandex.ru, google.com, and yahoo.com. In order to increase the number of potential customers, spread information about yourself in groups of the social network for needlework and others related to your type of business. Invite users actively, arrange bonus promotions for referred clients. Introduce a system of discounts for regular customers, encourage them to buy a large number of products. Use the days of discounts and promotions to reduce prices for certain types of products, in a word, focus not only on attracting customers, but also on creating a group of regular customers.
