Start an Ecommerce Business (Series)

Welcome to How to Start an Ecommerce Business series.

In this blog series we will build an ecommerce store from scratch.

I will share with you how my family and I created an online food business with limited to almost non existent capital.

Okay now a little bit of background for this series,

Because of the pandemic this 2020, we’re stuck in our house and our only access to outside products are online.

So at this time it’s pretty obvious that online businesses are booming.

And since our main and only source of income, which is my dad, is not doing well because of his gigs’ suspension due to resorts closing down, and there are bills to pay, we decided to start an online business.

And this is how this series is born.

As you may or may not already know, series in this blog Jnella, are born through my journey and experiences.

This is a way to document my personal projects and is also written to hopefully help those with the same situation.

In this series…

• We will choose what products to sell.
• How to start an online business if you only have little money to invest.
• Discuss how to compute for the expenses and calculate how much to price to earn income.
• How to market our online store.
• How to deliver the products.
