“We are here to kickstart your ecommerce ambitions by providing you with a range of ecommerce stores in the most popular niches whilst providing you with a fully functioning business complete with products to sell saving you time, money and effort in the process."

One of the best ways to make more money with your business is to simply add more products.

You may have already heard me say in a previous podcast that those who are most likely to buy from you in the world are the ones who already have, so adding more products to your store increases your chances to sell - and re-sell - increasing your average order value and customer lifetime value. 

Listen to this episode of the Startup Streams Serial Entrepreneur Podcast to find out how you can find more products to sell today…

 

Startup Streams stores already come with products to sell

You may already know that, currently, Startup Streams pre-made businesses for sale come with between 1-to-30 digital products for you to sell online. Although this isn’t a ton, having a low inventory has its advantages too - as an example, it allows you to focus on selling your key offering. 

That said, bolstering your current offering by diversifying away from selling digital products, as included with all Startup Streams stores, means you could attract a far greater customer base whilst encouraging repeat sales. 

To do this in the old days, you would have to buy from a wholesaler, partner with a manufacturer,  attend trade shows, make handcrafted products or more recently, find a drop shipping supplier. Yuk. 

But you are a smart new-age entrepreneur, with a Startup Streams Shopify store. There is no such anguish for you today. For you, the answer is far simpler. As easy as installing an app.

Here are the Shopify apps you need to install to find new products to sell, links to them all can be found in the description below…

Handshake

Shopify’s wholesale marketplace. You can install the Handshake app to your Shopify store to sell apparel, candles, stationary, fragrance and home and living products. The app is free to install, is operated by Shopify themselves and allows you to sell hundreds of thousands of goods from all over the US - where the app is currently only available at this time.

Printful

 I love this one. I have used this in the past and for a designer like me, the ways you can sell your designs are endless. You can sell your designs on tees, hoodies, bags, mugs, posters, notebooks and even pet products. But what’s so special about that? Well, with Printful, you never need to hold any stock. The app is what we call a print-on-demand service. A customer makes an order on your store and an order with Printful printing warehouses is automatically made. They even send the product to the customer for you - with optional branded packaging. You never even need to see the product. Just like magic.

Dripshipper

Love your coffee? Try Dripshipper. This app, setting you back $30 a month, allows you to drop ship coffee. Chose which coffee you want to sell, upload your logo and branding and customise your coffee labels to fit your store’s brand. The awesome thing about this app is that you can offer coffee subscriptions too, so that you can get repeat business automatically. Again, you never need to interact with the product - all fulfilment is taken care of. Easy. And delicious.

Spocket

Do you love to drop ship? Or fancy dabbling in it? Try the Spocket App. This allows you to drop ship products in the US and EU. You may have heard in our podcast “Why is selling digital products better than drop shipping?”, all about drop shipping and its relation to selling digital products, but as we at Startup Streams have already supplied you with the digital product to sell, why not add the drop shipping element to get the best of both worlds? Spocket allows you to sell earrings, apparel, sports and outdoor kit, bath and beauty products and even footwear.

A few honourable mentions

Ok, so I am going to blast through the last few suggestions, so hold tight:

If you fancy selling more niche products, like baby products, fishing accessories and toys, why not try the Syncee App?

If you want to sell art from contemporary artists, try the Creative Hub App. 

If you want an alternative to Prinftul, try the Printify App.

If you specifically wish to target fashion and accessories for women, then the “My Online Fashion Store” App is just for you.

How about premium on-demand 3D printing? Try the Shapeways App. 

Lastly, try Modalyst, spelt M.O.D.A.L.Y.S.T for a large network of physical product suppliers with fast shipping.

So, I hope that you have found something here which you like the sound of, and can’t wait to add to your store. Of course, if the traditional product sourcing methods as mentioned at the beginning of this podcast appeal more, then what’s stopping you? Just make sure you do your market research, check what’s trending, check reviews, get samples then get selling.
