Ecommerce refers to the sale of physical goods online but can also refer to any commercial transaction that is facilitated through the internet. From mittens to hand crafted dog treats, an ecommerce website should be considered by any business owner seeking to expand their reach.
A business e-commerce website can be a highly effective way to tap into internet traffic and may increase your earning potential by 20% annually. A website will allow your products or services to expand beyond your locality and within the reach of millions of potential clients. An e-commerce centric website will allow you to streamline and track sales in real time and allow you to better understand your demographic. By advertising and expanding reachability through an online storefront, you also gain information on how to improve from the consumer’s point of view.
Additional benefits include low start up and operation costs, remote access to run your business and scale-ability.
Operation Costs. An ecommerce website, once established, will quickly become an easy budgeting item. Typically, packaging and fees are the only recurring cost associated with an ecommerce operation. Things such as shipping, percentage taken by any host websites (like Etsy or Poshmark) and packaging quickly become recurring budget items.
Remote Access. Who wouldn’t like to manage their enterprise on the beach? Working remotely is the new craze and an ecommerce website could certainly help get you there.
Scale-ability. Once the hard work of importing inventory, writing descriptions and developing a marketing strategy are through your business will be ready to grow. Growing it will go from having been an intense initiation to the casual update as the natural evolution of your success continues.
