You are a husband and wife, dropshipping mega duo who have really figured out how it all works. Tell me a little bit about when you first started the business, because I know from a lot of people's stories, it wasn't super simple when you first went, 'Let's start a business together.' How did it all kick off for you? \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShishir:\u003c/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e Yeah, it was a fascinating story. I think maybe Namrata can kick us off there.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNamrata:\u003c/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e Yeah, actually, I'm really obsessive in terms of shopping and when I got the chance to decorate our own place, I went crazy and I reached the point where I could not add more to the home. And then that is how Shishir got the idea and we started exploring, “Why not a \u003c/span\u003e\u003ca href=\\\"/dropship/home-decor\\\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003ehome decor\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e store?” So I will still get the items and then of course, they would sell.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShishir:\u003c/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e Yeah, so my main observation was that Namrata is fantastic and has a fantastic sense for finding right, very interesting products from completely unknown corners of the web. So I saw that ability and we saw how our beautiful home came together. And that's when I realized, 'Hey, we should utilize this talent that we have in-house.' And that's how we got started in exploring different possibilities of \u003c/span\u003e\u003ca href=\\\"/blog/how-i-launched-my-ecommerce-store-in-less-than-30-minutes\\\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003eonline stores\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e that we could possibly tap on and start with. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003eSo home decor was the first possible idea. Once I started doing my research, together we stumbled across the whole concept of \u003c/span\u003e\u003ca href=\\\"/blog/what-is-dropshipping\\\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003edropshipping\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e, and then that's when we started learning about what kind of products people typically buy, what is easier to sell, what is harder to sell, how do you advertise it? \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cblockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003eSo all of that was lots and lots of learning along the way, no doubt. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003eLots of \u003c/span\u003e\u003ca href=\\\"https://www.oberlo.com/blog/dropshipping-mistakes\\\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003emistakes\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e, lots of pitfalls, and we try to avoid and learn from other people and just try to learn from every mistake and try your best not to make that again.\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAleisha:\u003c/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e Had you run ecommerce stores before or had you even dabbled in this world? \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShishir:\u003c/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003e No, never.

So there, we did not have any issues. \u003c/span\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\\\"font-weight: 400;\\\"\u003eLike initially, since I was very fond of gadgets, I even found a clock that runs on water.

And for somebody who has experience in stores and running stores, they can really scale up for that one supplier who's doing it from their home on Etsy, but shipping locally and supplying locally.

This side hustle is often overlooked, but it can be a viable option if you're looking to keep your day job and supplement your income. On average, working shifts on the weekends can yield an annual income of around $31,000. In terms of earning potential, retail work scores an 8 out of 10. The workload is manageable, earning a score of 7 out of 10, as it involves social interaction and a relaxed environment. The specialized skill required for retail is minimal, as most of the learning happens on the job, thus it scores a perfect 10 out of 10. However, the time commitment is significant, as you need to be present for your shifts to earn your paycheck. This aspect scores a low 1 out of 10, as retail work is not scalable and doesn't provide the opportunity to earn money passively. As for enjoyability, retail work scores a moderate 5 out of 10. This side hustle could be a good fit for those seeking steady income but are not quite ready to start their own business.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e6. Waiting Tables as a Side Hustle\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAnother side hustle to consider is waiting tables. This job can range from working at local diners to high-end restaurants. An interesting anecdote involves a waitress at Moxie's who earns $200,000 a year just from tips, working only three nights a week. However, this is not the norm, and the average income from waiting tables is closer to $30,000 a year. The earning potential varies greatly, from $20,000 to $200,000, which earns it a 7 out of 10. Waiting tables can be hard work, scoring a 4 out of 10 for workload. As for specialized skills, waiting tables scores a 7 out of 10, as it is a skill that can be learned on the job. \u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eWorking as a waiter or waitress can be quite taxing, with a time commitment rating of one out of ten. However, it can also be rewarding for those who crave social interaction, earning it a six out of ten for enjoyability. To maximize your earnings in this role, consider applying for positions in affluent neighborhoods or at restaurants with expensive menus, as higher bills often lead to larger tips.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e5. Graphic Design as a Side Hustle\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAnother potential side hustle is graphic design. This field offers a variety of opportunities, from creating social media and video content to establishing branding standards. As a junior graphic designer fresh out of school, you might start with a salary around $35,000 a year. However, as you gain experience and become more senior, you could charge anywhere from $40 to $100 an hour, giving this side hustle an eight out of ten for earning potential.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0840/8370/3830/files/1697067085-designer-picking-colors-for-website.jpg\\\"\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the potential for high earnings, graphic design may not be for everyone. For instance, I personally found the job to be less enjoyable, rating it a two out of ten. While I initially entered the field with the intention of creating unique art for businesses, I found that I was often just following the requests of stakeholders, leaving little room for creativity.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eIf creativity is a crucial aspect for you, this might not be the best fit. In terms of skills required for graphic design, you can learn them online, but it may take some time. Expect to spend about four months learning the necessary programs, earning this aspect a five out of ten.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eGraphic design is a field that can be challenging to master, with a difficulty rating of seven out of ten. However, once you grasp the basics, you'll find yourself breezing through tasks. The time commitment can be significant, as the process of creating and revising designs can span days or even weeks, earning it a five out of ten in this regard.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eIf the prospect of earning a good income while working remotely appeals to you, and you possess a keen eye for design, here's how to kickstart your career in graphic design. Begin by enrolling in a course on Udemy to hone your skills. You'll need to familiarize yourself with software like Photoshop and Premiere among others. Once you're confident in your abilities, start applying for jobs on platforms like Indeed or LinkedIn.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e4. Becoming a Landlord or Airbnb Host\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAnother career path to consider is becoming a landlord or an Airbnb host. This can be a passive way to earn income. For instance, renting out an apartment can yield around $9,600 annually. If you don't own a property, you can still participate by renting out your leased home on Airbnb, provided you have your landlord's permission.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eThis career path earns a perfect score of ten out of ten due to its potential for high earnings with minimal skill and time requirements. According to CNBC, the average Airbnb host earns approximately $920 per month, which equates to about $11,000 annually.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eIn certain desirable locations, such as beach communities in California, homeowners can earn up to $30,000 in a single summer by renting out their homes during the tourist season. This strategy involves temporarily living elsewhere, such as a hotel or with relatives.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, it's important to note that this option may not always be enjoyable, especially when dealing with tenants who fail to pay or Airbnb customers who lodge complaints. On a scale of enjoyability, this side hustle scores a six out of ten.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e3. Consultancy as a Side Hustle\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAnother side hustle to consider is becoming a consultant in your field. This allows you to work your day job and take on clients during evenings and weekends. For instance, I currently help entrepreneurs optimize their e-commerce sites and marketing plans, charging $250 per session for solo entrepreneurs. By conducting three sessions per month, I can make an extra $9,000 a year. For larger projects with bigger businesses, I charge $10,000 a month.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0840/8370/3830/files/1697067137-airbnb-hustle.png\\\"\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eThe earning potential for consulting is substantial, earning a ten out of ten stars, or even an eleven out of ten if you're highly specialized in your field. For example, a cosmetic chemist could easily make $200,000 a year. The sky's the limit with this side hustle.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, it's important to note that the more of an expert you are, the more you can charge. Therefore, this side hustle scores a three out of ten for skills required as it does necessitate on-the-job experience or some form of education.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAs a consultant, you can guide your clients with just your words, which requires minimal effort. For difficulty and time commitment, this side hustle scores a ten out of ten stars. The added advantage is that you have the freedom to choose your clients, meaning you don't have to work with anyone you don't like.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e2. Freelancing as a Side Hustle\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eAnother viable side hustle is freelancing. Similar to consultancy, freelancing involves contract work. However, as a freelancer, you're not just sharing advice; you're doing the actual work. While this can be equally rewarding, it can also be more time-consuming, earning it a 6 out of 10 in terms of time commitment. To start freelancing, post on LinkedIn that you're open to work and start searching for freelance positions on job sites like Indeed or LinkedIn.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003e1. Ecommerce as a Side Hustle\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eRunning an ecommerce store is another excellent side hustle. This venture allows you to bring your ideas to life, from branding and website development to product creation. The joy of seeing your idea materialize into a tangible product makes this side hustle highly enjoyable, earning it another perfect score of 10 out of 10.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eLearning the ropes of running an ecommerce store is also quite accessible, thanks to resources like YouTube tutorials. The skill required and difficulty level are manageable, making it another 10 out of 10. As the owner of an ecommerce store, you can dedicate as much or as little time as you want, and your earning potential is unlimited.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eTake ButcherBox as an example. This ecommerce store reached nine figures without the help of investors, proving that the possibilities are endless when you're in control of your own business.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eOne inspiring example of the power of ecommerce is Cassie Ho. She started a multi-million dollar apparel brand using ecommerce, demonstrating that the sky truly is the limit when it comes to earning potential. In fact, the potential is so great that it deserves an 11 out of 10 rating.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're interested in starting an online store, Shopify offers a free trial, and no credit card is required. This is particularly beneficial if you're hesitant about making a commitment. Moreover, if you're short on product ideas, there's a free ecommerce course designed to get your store up and running quickly. This is an excellent resource if you're working with a low budget or if you're a total beginner.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003eGet Side Hustlin'\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eMany people are drawn to side hustles for a variety of reasons. Some may be tired of relying solely on their nine-to-five job, while others may have been raised to always have a side project. Regardless of the reason, the world of ecommerce offers a wealth of opportunities.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eFor those interested in learning more about running a business, there are numerous resources available.

A robust pricing strategy goes beyond merely calculating the costs and adding a markup. In this article, we will delve into eight simplified yet effective pricing strategies that can enhance your business competitiveness and boost your sales.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003eUnderstanding the Basics of Pricing\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003ePricing begins with understanding the costs involved in creating or obtaining a product and bringing it to the market. This includes your production costs, business costs, marketing costs, and shipping and handling costs. However, pricing strategy is not solely about arithmetic. The amount a customer is willing to pay for a product is not necessarily about the product's cost, but rather about how they perceive the product's value.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0840/8370/3830/files/1697068412-pricing.png\\\"\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003ePricing Strategies: A Closer Look\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eCost-Plus Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eFirstly, we have cost-plus pricing. This involves calculating the costs of your products and adding a markup, often double the wholesale price. However, the markup percentage can vary depending on your business. While this strategy ensures a decent profit margin, it doesn't consider market factors like competition or demand for your product.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eCompetitive Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eNext, we have competitive pricing. This strategy involves assessing what your competitors are charging to determine the market rate. One way is to price your products slightly lower than your competition, attracting value shoppers who are price sensitive. Conversely, pricing your products slightly higher can signal that your product might be superior, attracting customers who value quality over price.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003ePrice Skimming\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003ePrice skimming is another strategy. This involves charging the highest possible price for a product at its launch, then gradually decreasing it over time. Businesses with unique attributes that competitors can't match often employ this strategy. However, price skimming may not be effective in a saturated market where your product doesn't truly stand out.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003ePenetration Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003ePenetration pricing involves setting a low price to enter a market. This strategy aims to draw attention to your business and take away business from competitors who can't match the low price. Once you've captured a significant market share, you can then begin to raise the price. However, it's crucial to remember that too many sales can make customers wary of paying the regular price, and too low prices can create a perception of poor quality.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eValue-Based Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eValue-based pricing hinges on understanding your customer's perception of your product's value and pricing it accordingly. This involves gathering data on what customers are willing to pay for comparable products.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eLoss Leader Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eLoss leader pricing involves intentionally pricing a product at a loss to attract customers. The aim is not to make a profit on the discounted item, but to entice customers to purchase other items. This strategy is best suited for larger companies with a range of products to offset the initial loss.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eBundle Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eBundle pricing involves selling a bundle of products together at a single price. This can add value for customers, increase sales, and boost brand loyalty. \u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch3\u003eAnchor Pricing\u003c/h3\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, there's anchor pricing, a strategy that leverages the human tendency to compare. With anchor pricing, a retailer lists the discounted price alongside the original price, highlighting the savings a customer can make by purchasing immediately.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003ch2\u003eGo Forth and Figure Out How Much!\u003c/h2\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eIn summary, each pricing strategy has its unique benefits and applications. The key is to understand your market, your product, and your competition to choose the most effective strategy for your business.\u003c/p\u003e\\n\u003cp\u003eRegardless of the platform you use for your ecommerce business, understanding these pricing strategies can help drive your business growth. Continuous learning and action are key to growing a successful ecommerce business.
