Intro to E-commerce

Getting customers to the store is only step one — trust is what keeps them there.

Intro to E-commerce is the honest beginner's map of selling online: what an online store really is (and isn't), the four ways to stock one — your own inventory, dropshipping told straight with its slow-boat warts, print on demand, and digital products like this very book — how to set up shop for under a hundred dollars, how to pick products people actually want, and how to price them with a fair ladder and real, worked arithmetic. It covers the boring machinery that earns trust — payments, shipping promises you can keep, fair returns — the three roads to traffic, and the philosophy this store runs on: deliver first, serve like a neighbor, earn every review, and offer only follow-ons you'd offer a friend. It closes with a plain-English glossary and the startup, before-you-list, and weekly checklists worth taping to the wall.

No jargon without a translation, no experience assumed, no get-rich-quick promises — because there aren't any honest ones.
