May 10, 2021 / by 3dtechk

Are you an ambitious person? Do you have a creative business idea?  Do you have an online business already? 

If you answered yes the quickest online startup guide is your solution. If not also read ahead, because it would be great information to have if an idea presented itself in the future.

 

Understand Online Businesses

One of the biggest underestimations that people nowadays make is, since businesses are now online, it is very easy to start a business. You just need a device, be it a PC or laptop or even a phone, and an internet connection. This is true, it truly does take a couple of minutes to setup a shop on social media platforms with just 4 things: an idea, a name, an electronic device, an internet connection and you’re ready to go.

But I’ll ask you this: Do you have what it takes to maintain it manage it, and make it successful?

Though it is easy to create and requires little to no capital, unlike rent for other businesses, it still does require much of your time, effort, and energy.

Here are some basic things you need to identify and create before starting your business online:

  1. Brand yourself for success, have a creative and clear business name and logo
  2. Phrase your business to have a short realistic description about what makes your business unique
  3. Research and understand the market such as potential competitors
  4. Define and understand your target audience
  5. Have a business plan that includes your costs and estimated revenue
  6. Plan content marketing

If the costs of websites and your inexperience in this field is stopping you from creating your business, Watani will help you sell your products locally and internationally through its website which not only will save you the cost and time of creating a website, it will also market your brand and products for you for absolutely no charge.

What are you waiting for?  Take charge of your life and create your online startup business.

Wait… We didn’t finish just yet 

Here are essential points you should consider to apply on your page or website

Represent your Brand

Buyers make quick judgements about brand and products in a matter of seconds after they enter a page. You have that tiny timeframe in which you need to capture their attention and impress them. It all comes down to the visuals. You might have an amazing product but because of poorly taken pictures, or low picture quality, and uninteresting captions your buyer would be discouraged to buy from your business.

You can take good pictures with a backdrop, a table, and light that would truly showcase your products’ quality and match it with an interesting and useful caption.

Educate or Entertain your Audience

Give your audience a compelling reason to research your product or service. Post weekly educational material about your product, that might educate your buyer on what sets you apart,  such as product features and benefits. Include entertaining videos of your product being used or showcase the service you provide. You can also make short and easy tutorials on how your clients can use your product.

Curate the User Journey

Make your website or shop on social media platforms easy to navigate. Most individuals will not put a lot of time and effort in trying to find the information they’re looking for, and will probably leave the page if they don’t. Especially for a startup business, do not assume people will put effort in trying to understand your brand and products no matter how good. It is your job to make it easy, accessible and evident where your information is:

  1. Have an “About Us” section
  2. Put your best sellers at the beginning of the page
  3. Have clear categories
  4. Have easy checkout system with delivery information
  5. Encourage and post feedbacks

And finally

 

Communicate with Your Customers

Get your customers’ feedback on your services as well suggestions, you might get new ideas that might improve your product. Answer to people asking about your product instead of leaving them wondering how much it costs or how many days is the delivery, and distinguished features that the customer is interested in regarding your product.
