Setting up online orders

[Shelbii]

My sister-in-law is going to come over and help set up a simple online website for us. I'm pretty excited about this. We've decided to take orders and payments online. Wish us luck!

Good luck!. I see this as a good way to streamline operations. Being online in this regard saves a lot of time, especially the online payment part of everything.

Good luck! We started taking online orders for some parts of our business last year. The hardest part is getting people to order there. Be sure you advertise so people know you're online now.

I agree that getting people to order online can be a challenging task. However, more people are now opting for online orders since the pandemic set in. Have you determined and set shipping costs based on location?

If your business already has an online presence, it shouldn't be hard to direct customers to the website. What is the definition of 'simple' in this case? Do you foresee any costs you may incur in the future? I wish you all the best as you take this big and bold step!

We did this with minimal costs involved. We are manning it on our own right now and it's going well. If we get more business, we might have to hire someone to work online.

It's good to start minimally for now and improve later on instead of going all fancy when you're still learning about your customers. Focusing on your product first is better in gaining your buyer's trust than concentrating on advertising. Good luck!
