A free SCORE Small Business Workshop co-sponsored by Darien Library
More than 300,000 Americans make a full- or part-time living selling stuff on Amazon. Over 7 million & over 2 million sell stuff on eBay & Etsy respectively. For small businesses, having a website is not enough. If you're not selling on the big online retail platforms, you're not reaching millions of potential customers. The time to start is now!
In this fast-paced, entertaining presentation, you will learn:
- the differences between eBay, Amazon and Etsy and the differences between Amazon’s FBA and FBM programs for sellers;
- other places you can sell online (where you will stand out more) and the types of merchandise that sell best on each platform, and where to find it;
- how to get started as an online seller and the pros and cons of “retail arbitrage;”
- how to sell other people’s stuff online and how to comply with each platform’s rules and regulations;
- legal issues you will face when selling online and dealing with sales and other taxes (including the Supreme Court’s recent Wayfair decision).
