Six Tips to a Successful Online Store

Let’s be honest, we spend most of our time on the internet these days, whether it’s for school, work or recreational purposes. Since you are usually online, why not do your buying and selling online as well?

If you’re thinking about setting up your online store on JamDeal, here are 6 tips to keep in mind:

Start SlowlyUntil you understand the full process of business on the site, it is best to list a few items at first until you perfect yourself. Taking on too much at once may cause unnecessary problems.

ResearchBecome a Buyer! To know what JamDeal buyers really want, become one yourself. This will give you a feel of what it is like from a buyers point of view and allow you to be a better seller.

Create Effective Product Listings


  • Description  should be detailed

  • Upload quality photos for viewing

  • Terms should be simple and to the point

BrandingOne of the great things about selling on JamDeal is the opportunity to create your own store page. This allows you to highlight specific products and services you have to offer and this will set you apart as a top seller.

Consider Free Delivery
Truthfully, buyers don’t want to pay anything additional for delivery. No one wants to hear, "This is the cost plus delivery". So, the best way to deal with this is to offer free delivery, even if that means putting some or all of the cost for delivery into the price of the item. Also, whether you decide to go with free delivery  or not, you should deliver your product as soon as possible. Buyers are easier to deal with when they received their products quickly.

Great Customer Service
Aside from offering quality products at competitive prices, customer service is one of the most important assets for successful selling on JamDeal. Sellers who get good reviews from their buyers will do better than a competitor with low ratings, and also achieve a better public feedback profile.

Frequent sellers who maintain good customer service ratings also become a top-rated seller on JamDeal. Benefits of this include an endorsement badge that is displayed alongside your username and buyers of course become comfortable purchasing products from you in the future.

Good luck!
