Welcome to the course on ''Online business: Learn to start and build an online business''

If you're ready to be in charge of your own destiny, but don’t have the capital to buy a franchise or open up a storefront, consider starting an online business. When your store is online, you can reach millions of customers instead of whoever happens to wander in - plus, you don't have to pay for retail space. However, like with any business, you'll need an excellent product and a solid marketing plan. All successful products and services are designed to solve a problem for a customer. The starting point for your business is to identify a customer problem and solve that problem with a product or service offering. You should also identify your ideal customer for the particular solution you create. If you’re selling online, a service business may require less capital than a company selling a physical product. Once you have the base of knowledge you can design your online business. Create an engaging website that is easy to navigate.

Whether you’ve just started your business or just want to expand your customer base, promoting your online business is essential. If you’re on a shoestring budget, though, you may feel like it’s impossible for you to effectively market your business to a wide audience. However, by improving your site's SEO (Search Engine Optimization, or how visible your site is in search engine results), promoting your business on social media, using alternative methods of Internet marketing, and networking with others in your field, you can easily and inexpensively promote your online business. Course covers important steps to learn, start and build your online business. You will also learn how to promote online business.
