Hey all,
I wanted to drop the link to my site here and get your feedback on what you thought, as well as what I can do to organically grow.
1) First off, I sell a rather unique niche, soccer goals. I used to work for the company that I now dropship for, so I am VERY knowledgable on the product. I also know that there are about 10 other people that sell this product, and I know for a fact, I am the cheapest out there. Extremely knowledgable on the product, cheapest? What is there not to like? Currently I am just word of mouth being I also coach soccer. Nothing impressive, but perhaps maybe $400 a month in profit.
Plans for me to sell more:
-Call and email the crap out of soccer clubs around the country seeing if I could be of value to them for providing their soccer equipment
-Google ads
-SEO, which I am horrible at
2) I decided to create "The Corner" on the site, basically a blog where coaches and players can read different articles on soccer related stuff. I currently coach and have been around the game all my life.
At what point does a blog start to naturally bring traffic however? I have no problem writing, in fact I enjoy it, but at what point will it start to bring in people reading it?
3) What do you think of the layout? I love Shopify for the ecommerce side, however I would like the blog portion to look a bit more "bloggy"
Any feedback is great
Joe
