    Hi Everyone,

    My name is Dominik and together with my wife May we started Mother and Baby Shop – motherandbabyshop.com.au in late March 2015. We hope that we can learn new things in this community and gain useful knowledge as well as extend our business partnerships and – possibly – find more customers. The business is a part time activity for us at this stage as I am a manager in an IT company and my wife is stay at home mum (which is a 24×7 job :) ). However, we want to grow to be at least an additional part time income from home.

    Slowly – but this is nothing unexpected. I started getting regular sales around 2 months after launching the website, mainly thanks to numerous small campaigns in Adwords, Facebook and baby websites. However, the store is not profitable at this stage and I am expecting it not to make profit for the first 2 – 3 years. The gross margins on sales are good but the cost of advertising still remains higher. I have created a 3 year marketing plan for the company which assumes it will take time before I properly assess all media involved in my marketing strategy and until I start seeing the results of SEO activities that I am performing. Anyway, the loss is not big and I have a well time full time job so I can give it some time.

    Naomi – what does your business sell?
