ECOMMERCE

hi guys , I'm about to start a Toy Company and need a very good advice from your own experience what works best so that I can avoid some mistakes and learn from your valuable experience . Here are my needs :

1. Web platform should take care of billing /charging clients
2. good integration with order fulfillment (outside /internal) meaning , if I don't ship outside of
my house and ship using external order fulfillment warehouse the web platform should have features to track /control the fulfillment /shipping process . If there Usa solution that offers all in 1 suite (web platform +billing+ order fulfillment ) even better . so I can just take care of manufacturing and sales . We manufacture here in US.
3. Good integration with affiliates (so we can sell using different affiliates networks that work on pay per sale model )
4. Integration with EBay/Amazon.

Please let me know your suggestions , main goal is to take off the pain of shipping /order fulfillment and billing. I just want to focus on sales and improving manufacturing .

Then a clean install Magento CE with small clusters (AWS) or good host (Nexcess), you can have it running in a couple of weeks. We do it in a day or two but we have access to special technology that automates the process 5-10 fold. AWS clusters will help with your ranking meaning less manual seo is required.

We use Opencart and Woo Commerce for a few similar scenarios and have a few clients that we manage that use Magento and MODX. It really comes down to how technical you are and whether you are going to have some manual component or require full automation.

Remember some of the pains are the barriers to entry for your competitors.
