Can I make money by opening a store on Shopee? Are there great opportunities to make money?

Now more and more merchants are opening stores on Shopee. Under such circumstances, the competition is very fierce, so it is not an easy thing to do well. Can you make money by opening a store on Shopee? Many merchants have doubts in this regard.

First, let’s take a look at Shopee’s cross-border e-commerce

Shopee is an e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia. It currently has 8 site markets, most of which are countries in Southeast Asia. Shopee is a cross-border e-commerce platform. Everyone knows Taobao and Tmall in China. These platforms are aimed at domestic consumers, while Shopee is aimed at foreign consumers and mainly sells products abroad.

There is also a Taiwan market in the Shopee market. Official data show that Shopee has become the largest online shopping platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, with the App downloads reaching 200 million times.

Of course, there are many cross-border e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon, AliExpress, and Wish. These are very large e-commerce platforms and are mature, but the competitive pressure is relatively high, and it is not easy for small and medium-sized sellers to do business.

Second, is there a big opportunity to make money on Shopee?

I don't know if you have heard that Shopee is now equivalent to Taobao ten years ago, with low entry barriers, great development potential, and a large market. Shopee's target group is mainly consumers in Southeast Asia, and the Internet development in Southeast Asia is slow, and e-commerce started late. So far, few e-commerce platforms have truly developed to maturity. But at the same time, Southeast Asian consumers tend to be young and have strong shopping needs, which has to stimulate consumption. With the widespread use of smartphones, online shopping will inevitably become the main form of shopping in the future.

However, the market is not yet saturated, which means that there is still a large part of the market that has not been developed by sellers, so the online shopping needs of consumers in the undeveloped market cannot be met. As for who will seize this opportunity to make money, it depends on who acts faster.

3. Can I do Shopee without e-commerce experience? How does Shopee operate?

When you join Shopee, you need a business license and domestic e-commerce transactions, but to put it bluntly, many people's business licenses are opened and the store transactions are purchased, because Shopee's requirements for operators are not that high. To put it bluntly, as long as you have shopped online, you can easily go through the official basic operating procedures.

But why do so many people still buy courses? Because there are more sellers now, and everyone wants to be the first one to succeed among many competitors. Maybe everyone starts the same, but the results will definitely be different if the efforts are different in the later stage. So I am here to tell you that the Southeast Asian market is still huge. Now there is Shopee, and there may be Shopee 1, Shopee 2, and Shopee 3 in the future. In short, the development opportunities of Southeast Asian e-commerce should not be missed.

If you decide to open a store on Shopee, you need to master some skills. After all, the competition is getting more and more fierce. In this case, if you want to open a store successfully, you must master some operating skills. I hope the above content will be helpful to you.
