1. Taobao needs to pay a deposit of 1000 in the early stage of opening the store, which can be returned to you at any time when you don't open the store, mainly to prevent you from cheating on Taobao. Be sure to give it to Taobao. Don't trust anyone or any third party to ask you to pay or unfreeze or help you unseal the activation, but you must pay in the background of the seller center yourself. Taobao will not take the initiative to contact you for security money. Sellers who open new stores must be careful not to be cheated by others. At present, many shops can open a one-year deposit in 30 yuan, and the effect is the same as 1000 yuan, but the deposit in 30 yuan is non-refundable and paid once a year.
2. If you open a shop, the cost of an online shop is mainly one month in 50 yuan. If your reputation is below 1 diamond in the early stage, then your online shop is free. You won't charge 50 yuan every month until you get a diamond.
3. Shop decoration can be done simply by yourself, free of charge. If you find someone to do professional decoration, the price is 300-500 yuan.
The rest is the use of marketing tools. Generally speaking, we will use some preferential tools, one month 10 yuan, and a marketing tool matching package, one month in 5 yuan and one month in 2.5 yuan. There is also a very practical marketing tool related to Taobao Baby, one month 10 yuan. Generally speaking, it is enough to invest these in the new store in the early stage.
5. When you do Taobao in the early stage, you can choose to send it on your behalf, which does not need to occupy a lot of money and greatly reduces the risk of your Taobao business.
6. At present, many newly opened Taobao sellers told me that many people have contacted them on Want Want recently, either paying a deposit or unfreezing the store, or saying that the store is not authorized or activated, so they can contact customer service to solve the problem. Don't be fooled. These are liars. Everyone must remember that too many people have been cheated recently.
Finally, we can now calculate the detailed cost of opening an online shop in Taobao. First of all, we buy our own goods and open an online shop. We won't consider this because it costs too much. We mainly look at the cost of joining and selling. For joining and selling online, the joining fee 1500+ the deposit paid to Taobao for one year+the decoration cost of online shop is about 200 = less than 2000 yuan.
