How to improve the sales volume of our store? -

Citymallbags is an online store which sell the designer handbags and wallets for many years. but currently with poor sales. is there anybody could give us any recommend? how to improve our sales volume?? somebody said the price is expensive than other store. but we really sell the best best quality products. I m posting this question really wanna get some suggestions from all of you. thanks so much.

Hi, your website seems very nice. It has a nice clean look to it, is well organized and user-friendly. Outside of that, I did a search on a couple of the items that you offer. Your website does not appear anywhere in the listings (at least not in the top 200) for the keywords, which I entered into the search engine. I also used the same keywords listed from your source code. For an online store/business to have any success, it is suggested by experts that, your website appear on page 1 or page 2 of the search engine results for keywords. So my suggestion is to have your website optimized or SEO d (Search Engine Optimization). That may help to get more customers to your site if done properly.

thanks for your advise. actually, we have our website SEO. but it doesn t work well. thtat s a big problem . Report Abuse

I am in Britain and don t know the US economy as well as ours, though I expect them to be similar. If so, the problem a lot of high-end stores are facing is that a lot of otherwise potential customers have either lost their jobs or have taken a pay cut and are looking to reduce their expenditure.I say to every business that you can t sell anything unless and until you have customers in your shop. Why not buy in some cheaper, less attractive stuff and advertise your Bargain Basement - break your categories even further down to Under $25 and Under $50 .Of course, you don t want to become a downmarket store. You re just trying to get new customers in to look round at your stock. So with each of your bargain basement items build a hyperlink to see similar products , which will take the customer to the more attractive goods and perhaps persuade them that the high price is really worthwhile paying.

What can my friend do when a contractor did not do the job? -

my friend received a settlement from the government and she decide to upgrade her home after having made a choice from many she decide to go with a contractor she has receipts,canceled check, and a contract for the job to be done well the contractor did not show up he has done many jobs through the neighborhood and had references she gave him a large deposit to start but never showed up there is any thing that she can do beside getting him hurt because she is on a fixed income and can not afford a lawyer

Your friend should be able to file a lawsuit in small claims court as long as the amount in dispute is under 10,000 dollars. Small claims court is designed for people and situations where using a lawyer would be to expensive or not possible. Where I am from it is actually discourage by the court for either party to hire a lawyer. Your friend should go to the local court and ask for paperwork to file the claim. She will need to know the name and address (at a minimum) in order to get the paperwork served to the contractor. They will set a court date and the contractor has to show up or he loses and if he shows up and loses then the court should be able to give collection options to your friend. I believe she can even file the claim for more than the down payment for the cost of the hassle and paperwork, etc. So check that out. If the value is higher than 10 grand then your friend might want to talk to a lawyer about representing her and payment to be made out of recovered money. If your friend really does have a case and the lawyer sees that they will likely get paid from that I m sure it would work out.

Call the police and file and report for theft.

Do contract jobs get paid holidays? -

Do contract jobs (3months, 5months, etc..) get paid on holidays when the company closes.

In general, NO. Contract jobs are just that: you get paid X dollars for the contract job. When job is done, you re out. You are considered to be self-employed, and get a 1099, and you have to pay your own taxes. If you are paid a W2, but was told you re a contractor, then there s a problem. However, holiday pay is completely optional, and even sick leave may be optional, except in certain jurisdictions, such as San Francisco, CA, where sick leave accrual is required by city ordinance. ---Kasey C, PC guru since Apple II daysLaziness: resting BEFORE you are tired.

If I want to start an online business, what are some ways I can charge the customers by debit/credit card? -

If I want to start an online business, what are some ways I can charge the customers by debit/credit card? Thanks!

Depends on the type of online business you want to do.1. If you want to provide a service the same way say eBay, amazon is doing then you can use payment processors such as:PayPalMoneybookersNochexPPPayetc, to collect payments online. it s easy, instant too. The payment processors I mentioned above usually come built in when you buy the auction/classifieds php software.2. If you want to set up an online store selling products, you ll need to buy a shopping cart which would already have built in payment processors to collect debit/credit card payments.

Creative Ideas On How to Make Some Money? -

I m a college student and I have found it nearly impossible to get any sort of employment. My bank account is nearly empty because I can t find any ways to make any money. I thought i d post this and see if we could find some creative ideas on how to make some spending money and such. Go for it.

1. Step 1 Write effectively for eHow.com. This one may seem obvious, but take a closer look at the previous sentence - there s an emphasis on effectively. If you make the effort to learn from the eHow experiences of experts you ll save yourself a tremendous amount of time and dramatically increase your earnings. 2. Step 2 Design t-shirts. CafePress is a company that will allow you to submit t-shirt designs (funny phrases, pictures, etc.) at no cost to you and if a t-shirt design of yours sells you ll receive a portion of that sale. A perfect no overhead business for creative people. (A link to this website is provided in the Resources Section.) 3. Step 3 Blog about something that interests you. This is completely free and can be both a work at home revenue stream and a fun creative outlet or way to keep in touch with friends. Setting up a blog is extremely easy today. If you can manage an email account (or an eHow.com account) then you can manage a Blogger (Google s blog service) account. Once your blog is up and running apply for Google AdSense to monetize your blog without having to sell a product. 4. Step 4 Sell tickets. Reselling tickets for sporting events and concerts can be a fun and profitable business that you can run out of your house. Thanks to websites like Stubhub.com and eBay you can now sell tickets for events all over the country. Visit PresaleToday.com to find out in advance when popular events are taking place and also find valuable presale passwords for free. 5. Step 5 Sell books. Amazon.com is a great place to sell used books that you already have at your house, find at a yard sale, or find any number of other ways. When I was a college student I found that professors had tremendous amounts of unused textbooks that were free for the taking. Redistributing books online is a great way to share knowledge in a way that s most affordable for the purchaser and profitable for the seller. 6. Step 6 Sell your photos. Visit Big Stock Photo where you submit photos (or artwork) for other people to buy/download. When your pictures are purchased you split a portion of the sale with Big Stock Photo. You can make between 50 cents and $3.00 per download.

I incorporated in California, but I do all my business in Idaho, and now live in Idaho.? -

Do i pay corporate tax in Idaho, or CA? I m confused

Both. Every California corporation must pay a certain minimum tax to the State of California. After that, however, income is allocated between the states based on a formula, combining the source of sales, property owned in each state, and employees in each state. You pay tax to each state based on your allocated income. If you do all of your business in Idaho (and have all your employees and property there), you will mostly pay Idaho taxes, with a relatively small amount payable to California.You might consider reincorporating in Idaho.

How can i list replica hats on ebay with listing getting removed? -

ebay will stop the sale of counterfeit items.try a local flea market.

Try Craigslist instead. Ebay will remove anything they suspect is unlicensed, such as items associated with professional sports teams, or anything suspected to be counterfeit. The term replica is probably setting off alarm bells at Ebay.

I have a full time job and I also have a small e-bay business that made $1584 this year.? -

When I report this e-bay income and take the home business deductions are those deductions limited to the taxes I would pay on the $1584 (because that would not be much) or can I combine both incomes and take the tax write offs off of the total amount of taxes I pay for both my job and home business

You can only take a home business deduction if you use a room in your home EXCLUSIVELY for your business.Your deduction is limited to your earnings on schedule C.

You can only deduct expenses incurred by direct income incurred. Your wages at a full time job already has taxes being deducted. You cannot claim that with self employment income as a whole. Schedule C will be needed for the $1584.00Warning: Be careful with the home office deduction that is a red flag with the internal revenue service. Make sure you read the guidelines very carefully before taking this deduction. Other deductions that are legit that you should have are shipping, office supplies, computer and internet expense. etc. Also be careful when purchasing equipment and furniture and fixtures they are generally depreciated over a period of time and not a direct expense. Talk to a tax professional.

How can a teen make a lot of money? -

im looking for a legit way to make a lot of money like 2,000-3,000 dollars thanks for the help

Depends on what you know, where you live, and your personal situation. Do you have any money to start with? Do you know anywhere you could work? Do you have any special skills or knowledge that would make someone want to give you $3,000?There isn t a solution that can be passed on that will make a few easy grand. Get a job, save some money, use that money to make more money... it is a tale as old as time.

Some type of sales pposition that no one wants to do because it is hard, if you work harder than the average you will make a lot of money...it takes hard work and mental toughness, but usually it is a numbers game, make more calls than the next guy, make more money

Work at restaurants or the mall.
