What eCommerce Business Should You Start?

You finally decided to start an eCommerce business. Now you are riddled with which eCommerce platform you should start with or what's best suited for you. We absolutely love Amazon as the first place to start with your eCommerce business. With Amazon you can quickly scale your business. Shopify is great but it takes a little bit more time. eBay is another platform but you won't be able to scale as much as Amazon. Let me break it down to you about each platform. 

With Amazon as your go to eCommerce business, there's a monthly cost of $40 for a professional account. You can list as many items as you want with no listing fee. There's a charge of 8-15% seller fees for most categories. You can already sell on pre-existing products (also known as piggybacking) and can scale your business quickly. The best part of piggybacking is you do not need to spend money on ads since it is already selling. This business model is very attractive and lucrative f...

Business Improvements with eCommerce

There are a lot of businesses that do not utilize the eCommerce space. That is just leaving money on the table. Leveraging the eCommerce space for your business just helps you reach other audiences and potential customers, especially to those who may not even know about your business. Business improvements with eCommerce can be broken down five different ways. 

We have already mentioned this earlier but having an eCommerce website for your business will help expand your reach. How exactly does it help expand your reach? If people search for particular products or services, your business will pop up in the search engines. Depending on the platform you are using, you can use the built-in marketing tools to market the products or services you are trying to sell. A great marketing tool that is integrated with most eCommerce platforms is Facebook ads. Facebook ads can redirect your future customers to your Facebook page, Instagram page, and your websit...

Millionaire Mindset, eCommerce Millionaires and What They Don't Tell You

When you are scrolling through social media, the first thing you might probably see are extremely basic and broad advice from someone who is successful and is making millions or multiple millions of dollars. These successful entrepreneurs have at least seven streams of income. In most cases this is true, at least 50% of entrepreneurs have multiple streams of income, at least 5, 6, or 7. What they do not tell you is that no body starts a business without first developing a skill. You can earn from solely as a standalone skill or a high-income skill.  

Those who try to start a business without developing any sort of skill whatsoever usually fail with an online business or affiliate marketing, unless you pay someone to do it for you (such as a done for you service). The affiliate marketing industry has such a high failure rate and not because affiliate marketing is difficult. It is due to time consumption, capital ...

Amazon vs. Shopify

Another week, another battle between Amazon vs. Shopify. Both are really great platforms to start your eCommerce business. But which platform is best to start with? Personally, we believe Amazon is the best platform to start with, especially when you're new to the eCommerce business world. Here's some great information on each platform, and towards the end you'll know exactly why we choose Amazon as your first stop.

Selling on Amazon is the best eCommerce platform to use hands down. Amazon has 100s of millions of customers. It’s the largest platform to date and has a relatively small learning curve with how we teach it. You don't need a niche or focus only on 1 product - this is limited thinking. You should sell in 1-2+ Major categories. You can sell thousands of products already ranked and selling on Amazon, which makes scaling your business much more simple. You can build a brand with Amazon and focus not only scaling the business quick, but scaling a long term s...

SEO on Amazon

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is one of the most popular ways of online marketing, and you can use it on Amazon too. SEO helps your products to show up on the first page of Amazon organically, over time and after being ranked. Needless to say, that it will boost your sales ranking.

The best way to use SEO on Amazon is finding keywords using the predictive search bar and cross-referencing it on a keyword tool such as MerchantWords and using the best keyword in the beginning of your title, and throughout the listing. Having multiple keywords throughout your bullet points and description is also a great asset. Amazon isn't the only one who ranks your item- search engines will also like your product listing if it is well crafted and full of easy SEO content.

Using keywords for SEO on Amazon is one of the most important ways to improve your products findability. When you're filling keywords for SEO on Amazon, you should first start with the most elementary information su...

Winning in 2020 with eCommerce

There is still a few months left in 2020 and it's still enough time to get the ball rolling with your eCommerce business and to help you with your financial freedom. Don't use the excuse that you are going to wait for the new year. It's better to get out of your comfort zone now rather than later because chances are if you wait, you'll most likely be in the same position right now if you decided to wait.

Stop sitting on the couch and waiting. Nothing will get accomplished by doing so. Your way to financial freedom doesn't happen unless you start doing the work. Sitting around just prolongs you from running a successful eCommerce business. Just waiting around, you'll be letting a lot of opportunities to pass you by.

Start by waking up and make a change. What changes would you like to make now? 6 months from now? 1 year or 5 years from now? Jot it down on a piece of paper or type it somewhere on your smartphone. By jotting down what changes you'd like to...

8 Tips from eCommerce Experts

There are many ways to scale and grow your business. Here are the top 8 tips that you should consider during your business journey.

1. THINK LIKE A CUSTOMER.
What would you look for when shopping for a product you have in mind? Look at the packaging, pricing and the product. If you wouldn't purchase it, would your customers?

2. INTERTWINE YOUR EMAIL AND SOCIAL.
By doing this, you can gain more sales by opening up more channels. This will help build and grow your business.

5. USE (AND MAXIMIZE) A FUNNEL APPROACH.
When you're trying to sell a product to your cust...

WHY ARE NO AMAZON SELLERS DOING THIS!? PART 2 - Biggest Amazon Newbie Mistakes

A continuation of last week's video blog of BRAND building with dropshipping and not doing FBA.

You don't have to purchase any items upfront- it's VERY low risk, and you only place an order AFTER you make a sale. However, if the item starts selling consistently and it's proven then you can make the executive decision if you'd like to start FBA.

Keep in mind before you start FBA also consider the margins before jumping the gun. 

Make sure to watch part 1 if you haven't already!
