Hi Simoned

John makes some great points.... regarding warehousing don’t forget you can outsource this to a 3PL. If you are going to own the stock and the garage is too small this is probably the best option. It will give you a flexible solution and you can concentrate on the marketing of your web site.

Delivery: most transport companies dislike doing home deliveries and if the buyer is not home when they call there is usually a redelivery fee.

All the biggies such Catch of the Day and Crazy Sales use Aust Post, their rates are competitive, service is ok, you can pay extra for track and trace, best of all and this is why the biggies use them, if there is a Not at Home, the local post office is not too far away to collect from.

Cheers

Steven
