There is nothing more satisfying to a business owner then selling their products successfully or seeing someone buying a product with their company’s logo proudly displayed. Squarespace makes selling products online very easy. There are some basic “good business” practices that should be understood or followed to save you stress and time later down the road.

Keep in mind the following:

  • Processing Fees

    Processing fees cover costs like credit card charges and payment gateways, enabling secure, efficient transactions. Though they reduce profits, they are essential for smooth sales and customer trust.

    Squarespace Payments is a great payment solution.

  • Taxes

    We all love them, right? To sell your products, you must collect/pay sales tax. Your situation is specific to you, please consult with a tax advisor for your best solution.

    Squarespace has options to help, feel free to ask me.

  • Shipping

    When shipping, consider your delivery speed, package size, destination, and customer expectations. Pick the right options for fast delivery and to keep costs in check to stay profitable. Charge for shipping to cover packaging, handling, and carrier fees, but don’t scare off customers.

  • Graphics

    Customers shop visually, so high-quality product images are key to attracting attention and boosting sales. Sharp, detailed visuals highlight features, build trust, and convey professionalism. Investing in top-tier imagery enhances user experience and drives higher engagement and ROI, making every pixel a powerful sales tool.
