Online Vendors
If there’s anything the covid 19 pandemic made us realize, it’s the fact that more commodities have to be purchased online. Basically, marketing i.e buying and selling has to go online.
Yes I know, practically everyone is now an online vendor. They’re everywhere, on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp have the worse case of it.
However filled this line of business is, all it takes to conquer it is finding the right product to sell with the least amount of online vendors already selling it. For instance, if I was to plan on becoming an online vendor, I wouldn’t go into fashion, food or electronic gadgets cause that section has a whole lot of online vendors already.
Instead, I’d go into online handwork like an online barbing vendor or online mechanic vendor. Rare right? but lucrative. What of an online foodstuff seller? You just gotta think differently to make it.
As my Uncle would say over a glass of palm wine, “With the right packaging, any rare and unique business idea can make it.”
