Online Store Scripts You Can Use To Sell Online | Ep. #39 - Q&A Selling Online - From Amazon FBA to Shopify, Digital Marketing and Facebook Ads
Summary: Online Store Scripts You Can Use To Sell Online<br> Before I start, I want to let you all know, that although I have tried almost every online store script and online selling platforms, there are 3 places that generate 80% of all my online passive income (not really so passive, since I work 10 to 12 hours per day on my businesses)<br> The top 3 places/ platforms for me are:<br> Amazon (Seller Central )<br> <a href="http://shopify.com">Shopify</a> Click for Shopify.com<br> <a href="http://tiny.cc/cf">ClickFunnels </a>(Click for a free 14-day trial)<br> So, now let’s jump into the show:<br> The last episode of the Q&A selling online I mentioned the existing platforms to sell online (in someone else’s backyard), like Amazon, eBay, Facebook, Etsy and etc.<br> But I was asked why not just use an online store script and host it on my own server for free.<br> I still have a few web stores that are not hosted on Shopify. I still use 2 from a script called XYZ, and it is a Kijiji clone. (very elaborate script) I have one of these scripts with geolocation activated, so I created a different home page for each user depending on their IP location at login.<br> I also have 2 online store scripts from iScripts, the Multicart software. 1 is a dropshipping business I own, but don’t run anymore, the second I use for Brand and product awareness for one of my big generic brands. I don’t sell anything on the store, but I showcase all my PL products.<br> Another available option, that I have used in the past, but don’t use anymore is woocomerce with a WordPress site.<br> Another online store script I used in the past, when I had a cat bed dropshipping business is Prestashop. This is also a free script, that will make their money from selling you themes, services, and upgrades. It is a very elaborate and pretty cool software.<br> Next in line we have OpenCart, another free script with the same upgrade formula<br> Not to forget about Magento, is the free open source E-Commerce software from Magento. You can control almost every aspect of your online store, right from product presentation, content, merchandising, analytics, and etc.<br> Another great option is osCommerce, also an Open Source eCommerce solution for the online business community.<br> One more for the road… is X Cart, this is probably the most expensive of all ( taking into consideration that most of the ones I talked about are free open source) this one can cost u to $6000 for a 1-time payment full license.<br> But, if you want to start from scratch building your online empire, I do not recommend getting a free script (seems like I am not making sense, since free is good for starting) , but in reality you want to start with a platform that is going to bring the customers to you almost for free.<br> The most expensive part of any online startup is getting eyes on your product because nobody will know about your website or how to find it.<br> I recommend starting with eBay or Amazon, doing some retail arbitrage( for those with limited funds) and Private Label on Amazon, with a backup Shopify store and sales funnel as a landing page opt-in capturing emails to retarget customers at a later date ( I would use clickfunnels for this)<br> <br> Tha is all for today<br> I hope this was some great value for you, and if you have any questions, please contact me anytime at:<br> <a href="#">Send a voice message</a> <—Click there and an option to leave a voice message will show up on your right side<br><br> Or just<a href="http://qasellingonline.com/contact-me/"> click HERE</a> to leave a written message<br> <br> Thanks<br> QA<br>
