    Most people assume it is easy. They think "lets make an online business without investing any money".

    Opening a physical store is much more easy and efficient, because you will have your relatives & friends supporting. You will have neighbours and people coming to help / sponsor you. And you have just one little local market to compete.

    On the other hand, nobody will help you with you online shop because most of your relatives don't know what to buy online, and you have the whole planet's market to compete, instead of your local.

    SSL Certificate is another major thing !

    Something that really helped me was writing down my goals, everyday.

    This made me much more organized and focused, and as a result, my business became more efficient.

    Its hard to find the problems, so just go back through your sales process. This will help a lot especially, when you do testings with how your customers react. It can be simple as re-wording your email thats being sent out.

    Sometimes, you need a little bit of luck as well. I want to point out, when I say luck, I mean by "labor under correct knowledge".
