Setting up an online business to avoid costly mistakes – online

Are you considering starting an online business or diversifying by adding an e-commerce business set-up to your existing business? Although mainly geared at products being sold through e-commerce we will touch on other online business models including online coaching and training. This session is brought to you by Western Sydney Business Centre and Business Connect.

The retail landscape has changed markedly in the last decade, and the rise of sites like Amazon Australia continues to change the eCommerce space. Covid has further changed the online events, coaching and training spaces too.

This two-hour session will cover: what retailing now looks like, the impact of Covid in opening new opportunities, the key skills you need to succeed online, core steps to set up an e-Commerce business, and tips on how to be a success and not a flop!

Key takeaways from this workshop:

• know common mistakes so you don’t make them!
• learn tips to enhance your product (or service) descriptions and images
• maintaining customer experience without face to face
• how to get traffic to your eCommerce store
• assess whether an online store is for you
