Who Is Interested In Starting Up A Book Ecommerce Site? by Diamondwriter(m): 6:48pm On Dec 26, 2016
Hi all. There have been so much buzz about 2017 being the year for online entrepreneurs and so I have thought it nice to bring forward my idea of creating an ecommerce site.
I am seeking like minds to join me in this journey. Maybe 5-10 persons?
let's talk....

Bro.... My opinion. Don't sell books, let users publish notes then people can read and Like(no comments). Selling a book only won't be that great, I'm a web developer so I'm speaking to u as a web consultant. Using an example, Naijasinglegirl's 29SN book on konga was sold just 30times( checked a week ago). Though its costly(3k). Another thing is that setting an e-commerce website requires capital(ads, office, staffs) if you're going to sell via pdf( it will save you the cost of getting a delivery truck). It takes time for users to trust e commerce websites especially when you're new(passion will drive you through)....
Breaking it down, if you have a huge capital, passion, get a good web developer, and you can wait for people to trust your services then you're good to go, else set up a website that people post sef written notes

That '30 copies' is the third product batch in Konga which has been there since 29th November and the first two batches sold 189 on konga between May to November ending. Stop making assumptions from the surface. Why did all my hard copies go then? Selling a book is great!!!
