Ok, So I want to start a business selling accessories for iDevices. Cases, chargers, mods and such but I'm stuck at the launch phase. What should I get first? Website? business cards? let me go into greater detail.
I work 9-5 M-Saturday, and a night shift job 10pm-5am friday and saturday night. I thought to myself, spend like 100$ in wholesale on ebay and try to sell the items individually, so thats what I did to get a taste. Bought some items, and sold them pretty quick, so that was a good sign, I work at a lube shop so I get to talk to alot of customers daily, and I'v noticed that almost about 90% of people who come in have iPhones, I even sometimes see their children in the back playing with ipads, which is cool, but one thing I do notice is NON of their devices have cases or anything. This is were I'm stuck. I don't know if I should buy wholesale items weekly and just save until I have enough to start, or what, please help! I have no inventory, not business cards, no website, only a business name and high ambition. I understand this field is highly competitive, and I know the chances of making it, but instead of selling cases for 20$ a peice like the mall and other stores do, I sold mine for 10$ a piece with a lifetime warranty. which is sold my 100$ inventory really quick.
What do I get first? I want to open a storefront that repairs iDevices, I learned from youtube and alot of research how to fix them, and I've done alot of repairs. help?
