SELLING ONLINE IS EASIER THAN EVER!!!

The internet has done wonders for how the small and large businesses do get their products out in front of their customers before there were limited ways for people to see your products. Now because of the internet has opened up the doors for even the stay at home mom that makes specially beaded necklace to get her unique designs in front of the public.
The first and most traditional way artists, designers and collectors would sell their products with a website. This is a great to exclusively showcase your items, but can be limited to you being able to drive traffic to your site, being able to build a website and being able to afford a webmaster if you cannot design a site yourself. Having a website a great way to showcase your product, but there are easier ways to promote your product. Just because you build it does not mean they will come.

Etsy is an e-commerce website focused on handmade or vintage items as well as art and craft supplies. These items cover a wide range including art, photography, clothing, jewelry, food, bath and beauty products, quilts, knick-knacks, and toys. Many individuals also sell craft supplies such as beads, wire, and jewelry-making tools. All vintage items must be at least 20 years old. The site follows in the tradition of open craft fairs, giving sellers personal storefronts where they list their goods for a fee of $0.20. Etsy is a great way for people who are not savy with web design to have an online store front. Etsy is a great community of buyer and sellers that want to support each other.

Google changed the name of its Local Business Center to Google Places to underscore its tighter integration with Place Pages. You can post contact information, hours, photos, video clips and coupons. Business owners can use Place Pages to get customer feedback and communicate with patrons, and a personalized dashboard collects data including how many times people have found your firm on Google and what keywords they used to sniff it out called Google Analytics.

How about instead of taxing, taxing, taxing... We Start Making Jobs!

In 2008, New York enacted a measure that requires many large online retailers to begin collecting sales taxes on purchases shipped to the state, even if they have no operations or employees there.

The measure states that any online retailer that generates more than $10,000 in sales via in-state sales affiliates must collect New York sales tax. Many online retailers, including Amazon.com and Buy.com, have sales affiliates nationwide that link to the retailer's web site and are paid commission on any sales generated from their referrals. New York's measure clarifies state tax law to say that sales affiliates based in the state are representatives of the online retailer. This means that the retailer has nexus (i.e., a physical presence) in the state and is required to collect state sales taxes.

In all, more than 30 companies are covered by New York's provision. According to the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance, in the first six months since the provision became law, the state has recouped $46 million. Officials expect to recoup $68 million in FY 2009-2010.

Several other states are now considering legislation modeled on New York's.
