It sounds simple, but it's hard to do.
Xiaomi (pseudonym), a senior student in Huazhong Branch, has been opening a shop online for more than a year. "When I was a sophomore, I wanted to open a cosmetics store near the school, but it was annoying to find a facade, decorate and keep the store." Later, Xiaomi accidentally learned that the cost of opening a shop online was low, so he registered a shop on Taobao to sell cosmetics.
Xiaomi said that in order to open a shop, she specially studied photoshop to make web pages, and registered the names and descriptions of more than 400 kinds of goods on the web pages.
Delivery is also a difficult task. It was summer when she opened the shop, and she often ran back and forth between Hankou and Wuchang in the scorching sun. Because I am not familiar with the post office business, I often post postage backwards at first. Dealing with customers is also a science. Xiaomi said that many customers didn't trust online shopping at first, and she often stayed up late to explain to customers and answer their questions.
Waiting and harvesting.
The online shop brought Xiaomi: everything she sells is very interesting and proficient; By buying and selling, she became friends with many customers.
Xiao An, a junior at Wu University of Science and Technology, majoring in marketing, is now an online shop owner. He believes that online business can make you apply what you have learned, and purchasing goods is business negotiation; Commodity promotion and description is marketing; Incoming and outgoing accounts are the basic financial management; Delivery and after-sales service are interpersonal communication and customer management. Now, he has accumulated some experience through the internet and opened a physical store near the school.
No less than office workers.
Xiaomi said that paying attention and using more brains to win a good reputation on the Internet will attract more customers to shop online. "A month's income is no less than that of students who go to work."
Xiaomi's classmate Tian Tian (a pseudonym) also opened a clothing store online. Because of its unique style, low price and good business, its monthly income reaches 3,000 to 5,000 yuan.
Professor Zhou Yunqing, a sociologist at Wuhan University, said that the current employment situation of students is grim. Opening a shop online can not only solve the employment problem of some students, but also provide them with opportunities for social practice, which is of great help to their future development. But he pointed out that opening a shop online should not be "swarming". Students at school should make reasonable arrangements. If they are busy making money and delay their studies, they will lose more than they gain.
