    I have a very good friend whose father co-owns a furniture factory, which is of medium size. My friend is currently thinking the same way as me and wants to start his own business. Of course, his father also encouraged him to do something on his own, but he didn't explicitly let him make furniture, wanting him to think by himself (presumably to train him).

    But we discussed it and decided that it would be better to make furniture. Because first, we don't have any experience in business, and we don't have experience in marketing. Second, our funds are very limited.

    If we talk about other industries, we don't know how to start.

    I have some thoughts and some questions right now:

    3.This is my own idea, I want to sell on an online shopping platform instead of traditional sales. But there are also a couple of problems:

    First, I don't have this kind of experience in opening an online store. Second, I've seen furniture sales on Taobao, but I think shipping is a big problem. The shipping fee is too expensive (I look at it on Taobao as if it is the shipping cost from the seller), and it is easy to bump.

    And installation or something (no one has the hand to help users install, let users install it themselves, I don't know if it's reliable?) )。Thirdly, and this is what I saw in my business experience (I don't remember when), it is better to sell furniture online than to sell products from well-known brands, because no one wants to spend thousands of dollars on something unknown.

    Therefore, I hope that there will be guidance from seniors who have experience in opening online stores. There are also suggestions to do a combination of online and offline, if this is the case, is it necessary to have a physical store?

    These are some of the thoughts and questions I can think of so far, I don't know if you will think that my idea is naïve. But I really don't have experience.
