Online Store

An online store is the perfect place to grow an income on the side. Even if you don't develop or manufacture any of the products yourself, you can make good money with an online store. As long as customers make a purchase using your storefront, you'll still be profiting from the sale. Online stores can be a great way to make additional income.

The only downside? It's such a great way to make money on the side, lots of people are trying it. In other words, if you want to maintain success as an online store, you need to stand out. The secret? Give your store a personality. Here are our favorite tips for doing just that.

Stay Unique

It's important to stand out as an online store. Remember, there are plenty of other people who want the same success that you do. Make sure you pick a unique product line. Your store should have a theme (bounce houses and kitchen spatulas might be hard to sell together) but you should diversify your products, too. Have some bigger items, but make sure your store includes small items, like magnets and buttons, to draw in a larger customer base.

Incorporate Humor

People love to be entertained, and if your store can make them laugh, they'll remember your site even better. Consider incorporating humor in your descriptions, your pop-ups, and in your merchandise. In every pop-up, you could feature one of the amusing bumper stickers you sell in your store. When your guests laugh at your merchandise, they'll get a better impression of your store.

Provide Novelty Purchases

The best way to give your online store personality is to provide novelty items. Novelty items are small, easy to purchase, and unique. You might stock a lot of the same items as other online stores, but when you carry unique novelty products, you stand out from the competition. Customers will love the chance to add something small and inexpensive to their order, especially if it makes them laugh.

Starting an online store is a worthy venture. As you go forward with your online business, make sure you keep your storefront as unique as it is accessible. The more personality your provide your customers, the more they'll keep coming back for more.
