Starting Your E-Biz

It's all over the web that e-tailing is the way to go, so all you e-tailers out there that have been quietly making a living doing precisely that for years-sorry. The secret's out! For those of you looking for a great way to launch your new business, however, setting up an e-biz (or an e-tail outlet if you're bound and determined not to be just another dot com) is a great way to get started.

Setting up an e-biz is easy once you decide what kind of business you want to launch. Choosing your business is often the hardest part of the entire process. Why? Because too many people focus on profit margin rather than personal satisfaction and fall into the oldest sales trap in the book:

YOU CAN'T SELL SOMETHING YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN!

When you're choosing your e-biz, don't decide to go into bath and body products if you can't stand the smell of scented soaps. Sooner or later your customers are going to pick up on your distaste for what you're selling, and it's going to be downhill from there! Choose a product you believe in, and the rest will flow smoothly from there.

Once you've chosen a product the rest is easy. Your first step should be to find a reliable web server. All the marketing you're getting ready to do isn't going to do you a lick of good if your visitors can't find their way to your site! Then purchase a domain. Your domain should be something simple, associated with your business and easy to remember-for example, www.Amazon.com. Everyone in the planet can remember that Amazon.com is where they go to buy from Amazon. Short, simple, easy to remember. You can't go wrong!

Then it's time to design your site. There are three simple elements you want to remember when you're designing your website:

1) It should be easy to navigate.
2) It should have an efficient check-out process.
3) It should be aesthetically pleasing.

That’s it! That's why they tell you that starting an e-biz is so simple-because it's fast, inexpensive and can be done regardless of your level of business expertise.

Good luck!
