Speaking of doing online shop, your first reaction may be clothes and cosmetics. In fact, these online stores have great competition pressure and too many doorways. Without any preparation and experience, it is really not suitable for beginners, so I recommend that beginners can choose another development direction here, that is, bookstores.
Many people think that selling books online is a very troublesome thing, so they give up the idea, which is actually not the case.
At present, the threshold for operating retail books in China is very low. You only need to get a cultural business license from the local press and publication bureau or the cultural department, and then register with the industrial and commercial bureau. There are no restrictions on the place of business. In other words, it is not as troublesome as you think that online stores want to sell books, as long as they are registered.
So what are the purchase channels of books? There are basically three channels to buy books: one is to buy directly from publishers, the other is to buy directly from booksellers, and the third is to buy directly from wholesale markets. As an early small bookstore, buying goods from the wholesale market is the most extensive practice, and cash transactions in the wholesale market can reduce the discount on getting goods.
However, if you want to be a book online shop, there is one place that you must definitely pay attention to, and that is, you must pay attention to copyright issues. This is very important. Books signed with a publishing house must apply to the publishing house for sale. Books published by individuals must get in touch with individuals, otherwise it will involve infringement. This punishment in Taobao is also quite severe.
