Starting an online fabric business, where to buy,getting a website, need some help?


I'm thinking of starting a fabric business online for extra money. I'd like to sell on ebay but also have a fabric store online & run this out of my home. I would be able to monitor it from work as well. Does anyone have any ideas on how o get this started up & would you have to get a business license or just a tax id?

I'd recommend starting on eBay, if you can have clear pictures of what you are selling. You'll get a lot of exposure that way, and can grow your business from there.

I don't know about licenses and taxes. but I would like to encourage you, as a customer.

One thing that has made me hesitate to buy fabric online is I have trouble, as a beginner, discerning certain things like if the fabric is stretchy, how thick it is, etc and I have usually limited to buying in stores so I can touch the fabric and know these things. I would buy more online if someone could explain how I can tell more than just the color from the pictures. I usually have trouble telling about how sheer it is, if it runs easily, the texture, elasticity, etc.
at least from what I can discern. This is what has kept me from buying fabric online. Maybe if you could come up with some way to overcome that obstacle to some of us, you would entice more beginners like me to buy from you.

Check with the Small Business Administration. They have free classes for the small business operator and entrepreneur.

What will make your business better/different from other fabric outlets? What will your specialty be? Why should I shop from your site?

Answer these and you'll be well on your way. Good Luck to you!
