How To Start This Easy Online Side Business Now
I’ll tell you exactly how to start this online side business today & give you incredibly valuable tips that give you an unfair advantage over people that are doing it right now. Follow the steps below & you will generate your very own online business side income in no time at all!
Step 1 – Pick a Niche
A great way to pick a niche is to look at what has been sold recently on Flippa.
Take a look at recently sold eCommerce stores(just like you did before).
Note the niches that those stores are in & it will show you which niches are hot and selling well at the moment on Flippa.com.
For example, you might see eCommerce stores in the pet niche, outdoor or survival niche, home decor niche, or fashion niche.
Identify the niches of the stores that are selling time and time again on Flippa and you’ll find a great niche to pick for your eCommerce store right now.
Another great way to narrow your choice of a niche for your eCommerce website is to choose a niche based on your personal interests.
For instance, if you’re a pet lover, then the pet niche could be a good niche to focus on. On the other hand, if you love fashion or home decor, then one of those niches could be great for you.
Step 2 – Find A Domain
A valuable domain name increases the value of your eCommerce store, so you want to find a domain name that has a value of at least $1,000 to $1,500 or more.
To find great domain names go to LeanDomainSearch. Try to find two-word domains rather than three or more word domains. The shorter the domain name, the more valuable it should be.
An example of this is when we scrolled through recently sold eCommerce stores on Flippa we saw that LittleTactical.com was valued at $1,431, while lfgcoffeeco.com was only valued at $402. First prize is a one-word domain, but these are very rare or are usually very expensive.
The older the domain, the more valuable it usually is, so use CompleteDNS to check the age of the domain name that you’re thinking of using.
Once you’ve found a domain name that works for the niche you’ve picked, check its value using the Godaddy Appraisal Tool.
The sweet spot is to find a domain with an estimated value of at least $1,000 to $1,500 with a bit of age to it.
Secret Tip: Choosing a sweet spot domain lets you use its age and value combination as a selling point to increase the price when you’re selling your eCommerce store or website.
Step 3 – Build Your eCommerce Store
The easiest & most cost-effective way to build your eCommerce store is to use DashNex PowerTech software.
I want to make it as easy as possible for you to start your side hustle business and DashNex PowerTech is exactly what you need to set up your eCommerce store today.
To make it a no-brainer for you, you’ll be able to purchase DashNex PowerTech at a huge discount with no subscriptions, no add-ons, with a lifetime deal that you don’t want to miss.
Once you’ve built your store you’ll load at least 5 product categories with no more than 4 or 5 products in each category into it.
If you think it will be difficult to find products, it won’t be with the DashNex PowerTech platform. The DashNex PowerTech software has a catalog of products to choose from as well as the DashNex e-club which has winning products in different niches.
SECRET TIP: DashNex PowerTech makes it very simple to get the eCommerce store up and running in no time at all and ready to be sold.
Step 4 – List Your eCommerce Store on Flippa
Go to Flippa, sign up, complete your profile by verifying the required information, and list your eCommerce store.
SECRET TIP: Fully verified sellers usually command higher prices and sell their eCommerce stores quicker.
It’s important when listing your store that you model off the listings that have sold in your particular niche. Take note of how they positioned the store and create a template of a successful Flippa listing in your niche.
Doing a listing for a niche for the first time might take longer, but once you’ve created a template you can use it for all your eCommerce stores in the future. Then, the only thing you need to do is replace the store name, the niche & some of the value metrics, and you’re ready to sell your next eCommerce store.
SECRET TIP: The buyer of your eCommerce store would start paying monthly fees immediately if it’s a Shopify store. If you build it with DashNex PowerTech, you’d transfer the store to the new owner with no monthly fees payable to DashNex. That’s a huge saving for the new owner and a massive selling point for you.
