This week, I received a message on Facebook from Celest from South Africa. Celest wanted information on how to start selling hair online. So we started a chat on Facebook.
I would like to start selling hair online
The question Celest raised is not unique, I have many women who contacted me with the question “How to start selling hair online?”.
I started How To Sell Hair Extensions with the goal to help ambitious women like Celeste, Tha, Glory, Oyekanmi and many others. With this post I will combine some of the over 1,000 postings I published all with the aim to help everybody who likes to start selling hair online.
Everything starts with someone else
Please, please if you start selling hair. In fact if you decide to start selling anything you need to start with forgetting about yourself. At the end of the day, if you want to be successful in selling hair online you need others to buy your hair. So step into the shoes of the girl with needs of hair. What would SHE and not YOU want? Wat are HER struggles in finding hair? You would like to start selling hair so you need somebody else to need hair. Easy isn’t it?
To put yourself in the shoes of your potential customer, all you need to do is a kind of role play. Imagine you are not yourself but the women further down the street. Or the colleague who walks through the office like she walks over the catwalk. Imagine what are her needs. Where does she gets the information from to buy hair extensions online?
Launch your own hair store with the all in one hair business package, complete with hair samples
A buying persona
I created Joan, a buying persona of a woman who always wants to buy your hair. Please watch the video and check the links below to read on how to create a persona, or more, of people who will buy your hair.
You can start with your imagination. But the best result is to have chats with real persons and get their feedback on what kind of hair they like. What their struggles are to get hair and to find information etcetera.
Keep your persona’s in mind when you set up and launch a campaign. And check how your audience, the people that visit your website and social media behave.
Now you know your client, you made the first and most important step if you would like to start selling hair online.
