As per Jupiter Research, morethan 60% of the UK web users traded online. Even the government is pushing to get the figure to atleast 70% of the population. Internet is opening up a huge consumer market.

 

Before you take any decisions to sell online, consider the implications it may bring. Have a rough idea how much of the online business you can handle. Idea of internet is that it should be immediate and should be delivered as early as possible. Quicker the better. Make an e-business plan.
