A few of you have asked me how I started my small business and provide any tips as they want to do so too. Disclaimer, these are what I feel based on my own experience. Although I am not doing this as a full time job and I still have a lot to learn, here are some tips for you if you’d like to start your own business! 1. Start small. Try not to commit to large amount of items at the start as you are just starting out. It is also easier for you to handle a more manageable quantity. 2. Be consistent. I started off my business 2 years ago not fully committing to it. I learnt that it’s better to update your shop regularly so people don’t lose interest or forget about you. 3. Have a variety of items or choices. That’s so that you can increase the chances of someone liking an item and buying it! 4. Social media. Try to use as many social media platforms as you can. It may seem tiring or intimidating but you can reuse your content for different platforms! Also try to be consistent in posting content as that’s what the algorithm prefers as of now. 5. Know trends. It’s important to know what other’s like to watch/see and look at tips from social media strategists/experts. This would help you plan what type of content you can do and hopefully the algorithm will pick up one of your post and increase your reach. Of course this can be challenging and there isn’t any one size fits all solution. 6. Learn from others. I like to learn from other’s experience and pick up things I think would fit my branding and interest! You can follow other small businesses and look at what is making them successful/popular. Of course, don’t copy others and plagiarise because they are also putting in the hard work and effort to get to where they are. Hope this helps and motivates you to start your own small business and let me know what other tips or questions you have :) #smallbusiness #smallbusinessowner #smallbusinesstips #stationeryshop #stickershop #etsyshop #cutestyle #tipsonlineshop #onlineshoptips #ecommercetips #startup #smallbusinessadvice #cutestickers #startingabusiness
