The Tea on Small Businesses

Starting a business on the internet can be tough, and building something that truly works for you and generates income is no easy feat. However, here are a few key lessons I’ve learned along the way:

Variability: Does your product have the potential to grow? Can you offer different varieties or versions, or is it limited to just a few options?

Shipping: If you charge for shipping, will your customers be willing to pay? Or would it be better to include it in the price? Consider how much shipping will cut into your profits, especially if your product is fragile or heavy. These factors will impact both shipping costs and your pricing strategy.

Your Audience Matters: The type of product you sell will influence the kind of customer you attract. Think carefully about the community your niche caters to, as it will play a big role in your sales and success.
