Running An Online Business: Tips to Know

Image
Welcome back!    The process of running a business can be incredibly stressful and confusing. I'm here to make that process a little bit easier for you! In this blog post, I will be sharing what I have learned while running my own online business on Etsy. There are probably three super important things I have learned while running this store (even though it's only been a few weeks). These three things are: prepare for setbacks, set expectations you can meet, and be patient.      First up, prepare for setbacks. Failure is a huge part of the entrepreneurial process.

Hello and welcome to my blog!             My name is Usha Caldwell and I am going to be starting my own sticker business. This blog will be a record of all my experiences while making my own business and the process overall. To begin, I was interested in making stickers because it allows me to be creative and selling them would benefit me so I can continue to do something I love. I understand that many people enjoy stickers because they are fun and also can be ways for others to express themselves and their interests. Not only that but making my own business will help me create a sense of work ethic and really understand what it takes to run a business. I have found that there are many different things I have to think about when it comes to making my own business. The who, where, what, when, and why,             First, I have to think about the who. Who is my audience? Who am I selling my product to? Well in order to ans...
