Have you always wondered how it feels to be in the shoes of the sellers in the online stores? We at NPCoding specialize in building custom ecommerce stores! Want to know what the process includes, what are the important highlights and what is the degree of involvement expected of you? Instead of sharing with you “another” guide, we decided to present to you highlights for building sales websites in the form of the five mm’s.
Building sales sites according to the five principles – everything you need to know
So how does the process of building an E-commerce store work and what is most important to know? We are convinced that the following information will provide you with an extensive answer to the question:
* What – what are you expected to sell? This is the first question you should ask yourself, as the answer to it will always precede (!) the construction of the website. That is, the order should be like this: first you decide what product/products you will sell, and only after that you can move on to the following things. The products and the niche to which they are associated (for example: a fitness equipment store), will allow us to offer you precise solutions at the level of content, design, language, website structure, etc.
* Who – who is likely to buy your products, or simply: who is your target audience? When the audience is characterized and defined according to sex, age, status, interests, city of residence and the like, it is possible to communicate precise messages to them (!). And that the messages speak in the “language” of the audience? The chances that he will connect with the brand and buy products from the store are increasing.
* Why – don’t be afraid to ask yourself why you want to open a store, and especially don’t be afraid of the answer (since all the answers are correct!). The answer to “why” can be the establishment of an internet branch for the physical store, increasing sales, copying the activity from offline to online, a desire to engage in internet trade at the same time as the job you hold, and so on.
* When – coordinating expectations with the performing company about the time of work on building sales sites – necessary! You have a goal for opening your store, and the company you work for should know it and take it into account.
* Place – The place is of course the whole network, since we are talking about an E-commerce store. Hence, in this case the “place” mainly refers to the place where you will advertise and promote your store. It is important to remember that for every website (an online store is, after all, a website), a marketing strategy for online advertising must be attached. The goal: to expose the store to the target audience (your “who”).
