When Zlio.com mentioned that one can open an internet shop in France using their platform, I have always thought I will open it one day. The only challenge was how to do it. I read and read and by fluke I was surfing their menu and came across this statement, “Open another shop” I clicked on that and viola I found that I could open a shop in France. And I opened http://soigne.zlio.com/ and I filled that shop to the maximum with good from Zlio.com list for France. On reaching the maximum I had to open other shops if I want to do further internet business in France. And I did not want those internet shops to be under just one e-mail address. Since I have other e-mail addresses, I made full use of them. I opened http://seduisante.zlio.com/ and http://petite.zlio.com/ and http://bibelot-et-bibelot.zlio.com/

Having filled up my internet shop http://passion-trendy.zlio.com to the maximum, with all the products I could get from the zlio.com list, I was wondering why zlio.com only have shops in the USA. I wrote to them asking if I can have shops all over the world, using zlio.com platform. They promptly replied that they have internet shops in France as well, other than in the USA. But not in other countries. They suggested that I opened a shop in France. An instruction was mailed to me on how to do it. I could not understand the instruction though, so I tried opening up other internet shops in the USA. Unfortunately zlio.com needed other e-mail addresses to open such other shops in the USA. Luckily I had many e-mail addresses, so I was able to open other shops. I opened http://passion-and-art.zlio.com, http://passion-and-exciting.zlio.com, and http://passion-and-exotic.zlio.com. These all selling various products I downloaded from zlio.com in the USA.

There goes my dream of trading in eBay. But a few days later I got an eMail from Zlio.com asking me to fill up my shop with goods. It awoke me up; about one year ago a friend recruited me into his team of Zlio.com shops, a sort of pyramid trading operations really. I joined then but was never serious about it. But with this disappointment of not being able to trade in eBay (not being able to get the product to trade) I went into Zlio.com to understand what they do and how they trade. Having read about them and all their instructions, I opened a shop at http://passion-trendy.zlio.com, the business being in the United States.

I approached a batik cloth manufacturer to get products. They have everything in their premises, all sorts of cloth and clothes, from scarves to bandanas, from ready made dresses to cloth sold by the yards. However I was disappointed; they could not assure a constant supply for me, even though I found out that their prices were right. Their excuses being that most of the materials are hand drawn and that no two hand drawn materials will be the same and that they could not guarantee production of what I wanted on demand as their production line are already programmed to manufacture certain items and certain designs over certain periods. Unless of course I could assure them that my order will be so big that they will set the production line only to manufacture what I required. I could not do that as it would be too expensive for me and I knew that the internet demand is uncertain. I would have to bear a lot of loses. So I abandoned the idea of getting supply from a cloth/clothes manufacturer.

The product that I propose to sell must be light enough to be posted or couriered, and easily packed, no breakages along the way. And there must be demand. I decided therefore pieces of cloth like scarf or bandana would be just fine. Not any scarf or bandana but must be specially made, preferably hand drawn and having manufacturer who can assure consistent supply so that I could meet the order. And meanwhile I registered with eBay as a Seller. The plan was set and was only just to put it into action.

I have always thought that if you have the products you can sell it on the Internet and make real money. And of course one of the most famous retail marketing arm is eBay. I thought hard about that and talked to a few friends (and relatives) on how to start selling and every one thought it’s a good idea. The challenge is, what sort of product to sell.
