As a full time Mum, I am struggling to meet my current working hours. So have decided to enter the small business world. I have recently amped up my hobby in producing many handmade childrens goods. It is with great excitement that i have decided to try and turn thia into a business. I am wanting to import childrens wear from multiple companies in China (mainly thru aliexpress.com and dhgate.com). Ive ordered many samples, done alot of research and homework, i am very confident in the art of marketing, i just dont know wherr yo start. I am searching for some advice on where to even begin. What licensed and registrations i may need. What are the do’s and dont’s of importing and reselling online. How do i know if or when i need permission to resell certain items? What are the restrictions or are there any being based in South Australia. Any comments and feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there favoloso, and welcome

This thread contains links to lots of the questions you’ve got in mind, and also includes links to some resources especially for start up clothing businesses: http://www.flyingsolo.com.au/forums/index.php?threads/starting-a-business-please-read-this-before-posting.14182/.

I think you’ll find it really helpful, but please feel free to ask more questions too

All the best for your new business,
Jayne
