If you already sell from a shop, a market stall or your home, you have what most online sellers struggle for: customers who trust you. Going online is about making it easier for them to buy again — and letting their friends find you.
What to put online first
- Your 20 best sellers, not your whole stock.
- Items that are easy to describe and ship.
- Anything regulars ask about over the phone.
- Gift-ready products for festival seasons.
Local delivery or couriers?
| Option | Best for |
|---|---|
| Local delivery / pickup | Food, plants, bulky or fragile items within your city |
| Courier (all-India) | Clothing, jewellery, beauty, accessories |
| Both | Set a flat local fee and courier rates for the rest |
Online prices
Online orders carry packaging, delivery and payment costs your counter sales don't. Either price a little higher online or set a free-delivery threshold. Use the pricing calculator.
