Ok,
so You've found a reliable, trustworthy supplier that you can work with.. My questions are;

1. How do you actually Sell/Advertise your items?
2. Buy a domain and setup eCommerce?
3. Get an eBay account and sell?
4. How do you list the items?
5. Are the photos of the items that you're selling will be provided by the supplier?

I'm stuck here..
Any help?
Thank in advance.

    You can use Amazon, Ebay, your own website to sell your products.

      Thank you sir. Are there any guides that the supplier will advise us on pricing? Or the product descriptions etc? I'm very new so I'm keen to find out on how this works. My apologies if the questions sounds so silly..

      • A good supplier should provide you with some basic product descriptions (like size, color, dimensions, materials, etc). You may have to fill in some blanks, though. Add in any details that will help with conversions - are there unique or special details? Is this item made in USA, organic, Fair Trade, etc? Does it have specific or multiple uses, can it solve a problem?

        A couple months back we wrote an article about nailing product pages and used Heels.com as an example (they are really great at providing customers with all the information they need before purchase). You can find the article here, or look at their pages directly.

        PS: It's not a silly question! These are good questions to ask before jumping in full force. Keep your questions coming, if you have them. There are so many knowledgeable people here, who are really kind and share their tips freely.

    Don't be stuck, as per my experience I don't think you have to worry about the above different queries, I would like to suggest you to take the help of an e-commerce company which are ready to provide a store to perfect designing and coding.
    They can sort out all your queries relevant to your business and to the suppliers of an item.

      AadhyaMehra...thank you! I'd like to take multiple approaches to learn and understand this business. If I can find a local busines that does this here, then I might consider but then again I'll need to have a big pocket in order to engage them to help me...
