Quite a few Israelis who were interested in the possibility of setting up a store, dropped it very quickly. Upon ascertaining the costs of establishment and operation, the required manpower and the bureaucracy, many realized that in this case the dream “on paper” is sweeter than living it. However, when you look at the possibility of being an online merchant, you discover a world of accessible, economical (!) and much simpler possibilities. We don’t need to list the giants of online commerce that have already done it in a big way, but we will delve deeper into a question that probably preoccupies you a lot: how much does a virtual store cost?
Why is it easier to be an online trader?
If once the dream was “a luxurious store in a desirable spot in the mall!”, today entrepreneurs-merchants set goals for themselves like this: an online store that will be at the top of the Google search results! So just before we delve deeper into the issue of costs and understand how much a virtual store costs, what makes internet commerce the choice of many merchants?
* With an online store there are no fixed (and heavy) payments such as rent, property tax, electricity and water
* Many online stores are managed and operated by only one person. the meaning? The merchant does not have to shoulder the burden of manpower and salaries
* Setting up a store website is significantly cheaper (!) than setting up a physical store (yes, this is a saving of hundreds of thousands of shekels)
* While the operation of an offline store requires the merchant to have a physical presence and absolute totality, Internet commerce does not necessarily “suck” when each merchant can define the scope of the investment for himself
* Unlike physical stores that require the merchant to purchase a merchant in advance, online there is the option of trading based on the dropshipping method
