Need to get educated

By Ritesh Agarwal on July 15, 2014 7 Comments / 2054 views

Hi All,

I plan to start an e-commerce marketplace. Got an idea but not sure how to execute the same in the right way. I would like to get educated on what it takes to run an e-commerce marketplace. Don’t want to spend heavily in the beginning as would like to test the idea first.

Just thinking, will DIY e-commerce site builder platforms good enough to begin with. Do they support multi-vendor e-commerce sites like flipkart?

I will highly appreciate inputs from already experienced people. I am based out of Noida and will be more than happy to catch up personally over coffee/drinks, if you are available in NCR.

My email – ritagarwal@gmail.com

P.S.: Thanks Alok and Asha for providing and maintaining such an excellent platform for entrepreneurs.

Thanks & Regards

Ritesh Agarwal
