Starting Your Online Auction Storefront Business:
-If you’re serious about having your own online store;
who will help you to get your business going? Even if
you’ve never sold a single item online. How can just
about anybody do it without having experience?
BiddersSite.com Online Auction operations will supply you
with all the tools you need to help you decide what to
sell; set up a web site that is totally your own
online store where you will list and sell your items.
You even have the ability to link your website to your
BiddersSite.com Online Merchants Storefront to display
your currently offered items that someone can purchase
right from your site.
Even though our online storefront web set-up is pretty
much automated, you may want to read a few tips about
starting your online business before you get started.
Here are some of the basics you should consider before
starting your online business.
What will you be selling?
-Most online business experts agree that you need to
sell something you know quite a lot about. If you are
knowledgeable, have some interest or even a passion
for some product, service or information you will
enjoy your business experience more and can have FUN
while you are making a profit. Just as with any
business, people who plan ahead have a better chance
of reaching their goals. Otherwise, how will you know
when you arrive? BiddersSite.com Online Auction services
provides you with a efficient and automated platform
to roll out your product line quickly and efficiently,
giving you the tools you need for accounting,
processing and more for whatever you may want to sell.

Where will you offer your items for sale?
-Shipping cost can be tricky, with some sellers
counting much of their profits in shipping cost
overruns, while still a even greater amount of sellers
find shipping cost to be the foremost cited reason for
their eventual demise. You should carefully evaluate
potential shipment charges, your shipping policy and
your preferred means of shipment. Some items can incur
heavy duty fees when crossing international borders.
Some sellers might be best off to choose to offer only
local pick-up of certain large or delicate items. For
automobile transport, large bulk shipment or cargo
freight you can find cost calculators through our
shipping and carriers page. Generally speaking, it’s
considered good practice for Merchant Storefronts to
develop a clear shipping policy, privacy policy and
item return policy that should be pasted into every
item listed by that particular merchant. These
policies should be saved for easy copy and past
procedures, also these policies should be displayed in
a smaller set type than that used for your item
descriptions.

How will you replenish your inventory?
-If you have an information product, such as books,
data, e-zines or anything else for which you can
control the supply or your own services this may not
be an issue, however, if you are selling collectibles
or other products there is likely to be a finite
supply so you will need to plan for how to get access
to more products so you don’t run out of something to
sell. There are several sources you may want to
explore; online, local shops, other auction sites,
consignment, classifieds, wholesalers, drop shippers
and more. You may want to seek out a provider who will
provide you with several resources and more tips and
methods to help you to identify additional supply
sources. |

What is involved to set up your auction web-site?
You don’t have to be a web designer and you won’t have
to hire any expensive designers BiddersSite.com Online
Auctions provides you with a complete “private label”
website so that you will have a turnkey online store
right away. By “private label” we mean your online
store will be unique to you and will carry your
business identity and logo. The storefront is powered
by a template, in which you choose the color for your
store. Its imperative that you have a store logo or
picture prepared before you begin setup of your
merchant storefront.
Storefronts are also integrated in our search engine
which will allow potential customers to quickly locate
and find your items from any page within our site.

How to List your items?
-This process can be overwhelming on some competitors
sites, whether or not if you have never done it
before. Even if you are completely computer illiterate,
you will find that BiddersSite.com Online Auctions
provides you a step by step method that allows even
online beginners to make professional looking
presentations to their audience. We also include two
robust html ad builders, our Ad Builder Standard and
our more advanced Ad Builder Professional at no extra
cost to you. Allowing you to build a unique, in-depth
and interactive listing page. With graphics, photos
and great layout – you have a better chance of selling
your items faster and for more profit.
How will you get paid?
-I am assuming that you want to make some money and
this is why you are considering opening up an
BiddersSite.com Online Auction Storefront business. If so,
you need to make it easy for your customers to pay you
for your goods. BiddersSite.com recommends that you
get a payment processing account to help you accept
credit cards and other forms of payment such as
2checkout, Google Checkout, Pay Pal and Xcoin.
Note: Pal
Pal is the internet leader and more likely for your
clients to use a BiddersSite.com Online Auctions
How to make repeat sales?
-You need to thank your customers for shopping in your
online store; you need to add value by offering free
or discounted shipping or other incentives for
additional items and repeat sales. Consider offering
shipping savings by combining orders. For many that
discounted shipping might make sense to them to go
ahead and buy that second product.
