The first and Most Important questions - what do you want to sell?
clothes and shoes to start
Are you planning to stock these items or will you need a dropshipper?
we are planning on stocking for now
we are looking into the dropshipper idea because we were told it was a better way
Stocking will get you better pricing but drop shipping will minimize your overhead. The main thing is, get your business license and find the suppliers you want to use (most are going to want your EIN number). Then settle on a shopping cart. There are alot of shopping cart solutions out there - I'm on my 3rd store with Volusion and have found them to be very easy to setup and maintain. They have a 2 week free trial you should look at. Then you have to consider how you want to accept payments - Paypal, Google or through a merchant account for credit cards. One step at a time. First - suppliers.
you dont know how much I appreciate this.....ok question I have a few connections but how is the best way to go about finding other suppliers?
You can join places like Salehoo.com, or *******, or just do searches for Drop ship + pants or shirts or whatever.
OK - I don't know why this software keeps blanking out the one website. Send me an e-mail and I will be more than happy to help you anyway I can.
