If you want to jump in the business of ecommerce, opening up an online shop might be the thing for you. Many successful (and a few flat-out rich) internet entrepreneurs got their start selling goods online. Some started with eBay, while others opened up a shop that catered to a niche they really like.

Think it’s too hard to start an online shop? Think it will cost too much money or take up too much of your time? I’d be lying if I were to say those questions were without merit. The truth is, it can be expensive, it can be hard, and it can take more time than there is in a day to get the job done.

But it doesn’t have to be that way. I’ve been selling goods online successfully for a while now. I started out really, really, really small, and have grown from there. Here’s what’s great about my experience: I started my business with $250. And almost half of that went to the cost of incorporating! So if you don’t have much money, you can still start your own ecommerce business.

The key to starting an ecommerce business with little investment capital is dropshipping. Dropshipping is simply offering goods for sale that you don’t store at your location. Once a customer places an order, you ship it to them directly from the wholesaler’s warehouse. People have been doing it successfully for years, and some have made millions at it. If you want to start your own internet shop, you should seriously consider dropshipping. You’ll be able to start a retail shop without having to carry inventory.
