Let me know if I'm correct...
Register a legal business name
Find wholesale distributors
Sell
??
No, unfortunately it is not easy! Here are the steps that I would take in a nutshell.
1) Determine what you want to sell.
2) Come up with a detailed business plan, and your start up costs.
3) Figure out what venue you will be using (advertisment/products/services/etc)
4) THEN register the domain and the company (probably as sole proprietorship)
5) Figure out who will supply you and how reliable they are.
6) Hire a good web developer (like me)
7) Test the website
8) Plan your marketing blitz
9) Launch the site.
10) Evaluate the results.
If you need help getting the site built, let me know I have a great deal of experience with e-commerce stores.
Thank you
