Steps To Sell Your Products Online 

Friday, October 16, 2015

Overview: 

If you've got a product or service that you'd like to start selling online, this seminar will walk you through the steps needed to launch. 
It doesn't matter if you're a 'work-from-home' entrepreneur or an established corporation: the process is still the same with a few differences based on your specific business goals. This seminar will cover different options for this process. Do it right the first time!

Description:

Covered in the seminar:
A. Ecommerce Worksheet for business.
B. Choosing the Proper Software for your ecommerce business.
C. Finding the right developer and designer to complete this project.
D. Contracts, Rates and Fees.
E. Support, Maintenance and Upgrades.
F. Tracking success and ongoing marketing.

Prerequisites for this class:
This class is for those who:
1. Know what they want to sell online, even if only to start. (Talk to a SCORE mentor if unsure)
2. Don't want to do everything themselves (for that, we recommend you take the WordPress seminar)
3. Have basic computer skills (now how to open a Microsoft Word document, can put a photo on their Facebook page.)
4. Are willing to take responsibility for their website store (because ultimately, success depends on YOU)
5. Are willing to invest 20% to 50% of their projected first year sales, if not more, into their online store. (websites don't grow on trees)
