100, Service Based vs. Product Based for E-commerce
Posted by Peggy Fair, Wed Dec-06-06 04:25 AM
Hi all,

I am new here and I want very badly to start a business online. I have taken some e-commerce and web design classes so I know a little about the industry...I live in a rapidly gentrifying city and want to take advantage of the new well-heeled crowd and I have several ideas bouncing around in my head on how to cater to them..My question is what has been your experiences running a service based business as well as those of you who have product based businesses? I know with product based businesses, you have the headache of dealing with inventory, product returns, shelf life, etc..almost all my ideas have been product based. Keep in mind, that this will be a one woman show, so if I decided to go towards a product based business, I would be handling the mailing all by myself.

Thanking you in advance,

Peggy
