As a web publisher, I know it's difficult to sell physcial product on the internet. It doesn't mean it's difficult to make money by selling tangible product. Indeed, you can make a lot of money from that.
My friend in Thailand runs a silver wholesale website since 2005. Up to now he can generate around US$100K sales every month with 40-50% profit margin.
Web publishers don't consider this model, because they think they cannot handle the merchandising, sales and logistics issues.
I understand what they are concern. Indeed, if you ask me to ship hundreds product to oversea, I prefer not to involve in this business.
Here's an alternative.
If you are really good at web publishing, traffic generation and management..etc, I suggest you to find a partner who is selling physical products at "ebay". Try to approach him/her to see whether it is possible to "make money" together.
You contribute traffic, he handles the sales.....Win-win situation.
Is it too ideal?
I have formed a partnership with one of the biggest silver jewelry wholesalers, and we are going to develop a new-kind of e-commerce model to sell jewelry together.
We combine our existing resources and strength together...Let's see what chemical effects come.
Nothing is impossible. You "take action", you can.Labels: become advanced, revenue optimization |
