Checklist to launch an eCommerce Store<\/strong><\/p>\n

The below checklist indicates the essential steps to make your eCommerce business fully operational.\u00a0This has been prepared to have your eCommerce store up and running in the least time possible.<\/p>\n

1) Get a free Shopnix Store (5 mins : )<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"www.shopnix.in\"<\/a>
Create an online eCommerce store on Shopnix @ zero cost. Click the “GET FREE STORE” button on www.shopnix.in<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2) Company incorporation (3 – 4 weeks)<\/strong><\/p>\n

You’ll need a legal entity to recieve online payments in India. There are multiple options available like Sole\u00a0Proprietorship, Partnership, LLP and Pvt Ltd Company.,\u00a0Unless you are already incorporated, you will need to register yourself as a company\/ enterprise.

 <\/p>\n

3) Payment Gateway (1 – 1.5 months)<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you already hold a merchant account with a payment gateway then we can quickly integrate it with Shopnix. If not, you can start accepting payments via Cash On Delivery (through Courier companies) & cash transfers into your bank account. But you will very soon need a merchant account on a payment gateway. Through a payment gateway you can accept payments in a lot more ways (Eg: Credit cards, Debit cards, Internet Banking). Below are ‘some’ of the companies that can help you in getting a merchant account (Click on image to visit company website).<\/p>\n

Once you get a merchant account get in touch with the Shopnix team and we will integrate it with your store.<\/p>\n

4) Courier Providers (1 – 2 weeks)<\/strong><\/p>\n

6) Marketing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once your store goes live you will need to advertise and promote your store. Marketing is a HUGE topic in itself.<\/p>\n

Ideally you will need a marketing agency to manage your marketing activities.\u00a0However internet marketing has become quite easy and much of it you can be self managed initially.<\/p>\n

For this, you will obviously\u00a0need the holy trinity of internet marketing : )<\/p>\n
