Most, if not all boutiques these days have their own custom online store to coincide with their physical boutique. It's a great way to market your store, establish legitimacy and make some extra income.

I think if you don't have the resources to start a brick and mortar store, going online is a great opportunity to start your OWN business.

Especially for some Moms, before the babies go to kindergarten, they have no other choice than staying at home and take care of the baby. But they might have some spare time which is enough to do your own business by opening your own online store. Here I strongly recommend the moms to sell kids clothing or baby clothing. I think there is no necessity for me to explain why, right? As a mom, we all like our baby to be fashionable and stylish. If you run your own online baby shop, you need not worry about where to buy fashion baby clothes and you can save and earn money. What a good deal! If not, you all need spend some energy to buy and source some fashion baby clothes online.

Right now is the only time in recent history where someone can feasibly start a business without having to throw down a huge capital investment in a building, racks, inventory, etc.

In fact, in today's tablet/phone crazy and social media obsessed society, many people are having more success opening an online boutique versus a brick and mortar store. And it comes down to one reason, overhead. The cost for starting your online store is extremely low and to show you just what kind of overhead you will be dealing with when starting your online boutique let's get straight into the numbers when determining our domain hosting supplier.

HOSTING SITES AND PLATFORMS

You have many options these days to build a strong aesthetic and highly functional website. I have personal experience with companies like Volusion, Shopify, Yahoo E-commerce Stores. All three sites are highly trustworthy and have over a decade of experience serving online retailers. But my favorite company is Shopify which is 27$ monthly and enough to start up an online store. The platform has a very easy system and product inventory control. You can try for 30 days free and then you will realize how easy a website could be built. That is great news if you are not tech savvy!

DOMAIN

You can choose your domain at Godaddy which is very cheap and easy. If your domain name is not so popular, the cost is only like 5$-15$.

THEME

You can choose from over 100 professional and free store themes at Shopify. You can customize colors, imagery, and fonts with ease by SHOPIFY admin. But I suggest you choose and buy the right theme that you like from ThemeForest where have more attracting options and more functional items. The cost is only 16-36$ like this.

MARKETING

Marketing is the long run status that needs you to stick to.

Firstly, Shopify has built-in SEO features, automated marketing, and free educational material, you will always be one step ahead of the competition.

Furthermore, you need to start an extensive social media push on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube, Pinterest etc. Most of us like hanging around the social media, we like to watch what are other people doing and showing. We like to check some funny videos and enjoy the attracting photos. We like show our fashion babies and our fantastic trip or family life. Now we already spent a lot of time on it, why not use it and attracting our own audience and transfer the audiences to be our customer.

Of course, the audiences group of your own is far not enough for bigger business. Some advertisement by Google AdWords, Facebook Ads or Pinterest Ads is also necessary and much faster to get some traffic to your website.

About marketing, it is a big topic and hard to finish by such a short blog here.
