Amazon is quickly taking over the retail market – all retail. I noticed they are impacting Walmart’s sales and if that’s the case, what’s next? How does a small business sell products at a profit when folks are just surfing to Amazon and buying the same product cheaper? Any tips that you’ve used would be great help!
Selling the same items will be difficult. What you need is Niche items. Look at what Target is doing. They provide quality affordable items that you can’t get elsewhere. What has made Amazon so strong is the customer service provided. Free shipping has also helped tremendously. So try to focus on one area like Lamps. Don’t try to sell everything including the kitchen sink like Amazon/Walmart. Hope this helps. Good Luck!!
