"opening an online pet store and need cheap manufacturers"


          

HELLO and God bless
I'm going to be opening an online pet store ( I create my own pet clothing line) plus I sell carriers, beds, houses, jewlery and more! But I live in Puerto Rico and here we pay really high prices for shipping costs so I thought about creating my own unique line of beds and pet houses so I can offer great products, great prices and can compete in a market that charges pet lovers too much for pet luxuries
So what I'm looking for is for someone willing to take a chance on my business and my line but that can work with excellence and professionalism but without charging too much for his/her work and craftmanship...I understand that we all deserve a fare salary and I don't want to rob or abuse but the truth is I simply can't pay too much and I won't be making too many pieces may be just one of each ( for starters) but if everything goes well and I can open a market for my product line here in PR, I will need a manufacturer that will work on my line for as long as my business is open -hopefully for many many years if God gives me His blessing

If you are that someone or know of someone who woud be willing to help me out as I start out , check out my website http://www.peluditoscorner.com ( it is still under construction so please bear with me ...it will looke better and contact me ok ?
God bless -peludito's corner

I just checked out your site...it'll be nice when it's finished. However, take some time to learn all you can about "Search Engine Optimization" or SEO. This is the art and minimal science of getting your site ranked in the various search engines. You can't just build a site and hope people will find you, even though that's what they'd like you to believe.

Secondly, I'm assuming the reason shipping costs are killing you is because you want to ship to North America. I'd suggest you locate people in the U.S. that can make or carry what you want to sell and have them drop-ship for you...it'll be much cheaper. We drop-ship for customers everyday. That will allow you to ship at ground rates. I know we get killed on shipping when we ship to Puerto Rico.
Good luck...knock'em dead.

Denny

I really like your site. The pictures are really cute. When you have time I'd put pictures on all your pages. I went farther just to see what other pictures you might have on your site.

I'm afraid I don't have any constructive information about shipping for you. I'm just getting started myself, and, at least for the moment, I'm not going to be dealing with shipping.
