Ecommerce Startup Costs
May 18, 2005 7:37 PM Subscribe
I am trying to find good sources on estimating the startup costs for an ecommerce site. My googlefu is not working, as all the sites I find are trying to sell me affiliations, books, etc. and are not 'real' resources.
I am thinking about selling teeshirts on line and want an idea of what up-front costs I can expect, thoughts on what kind of inventory costs and how to manage it, as well as similar business plans.

Not an answer to your question, though I hope the resources are helpful.

2) Look at how much it costs to make T-shirts.
3) If you can't put a site together yourself, look at how much that costs.
4) ???
5) Profit!
Alternatively, you could just CafePress it. Less profit potential, but zero risk, and probably a good place to start until you have a feel for things.
