At the beginning we sold clothes in a popular Thai market in Pratunam, Bangkok.
And also near our home in Nakhon Phanom province.
So then many years later I decided to open a small physical shop and used all my money to invest to open it.
During the first month of our new little shop sales were good but after 3 months my sales were really down. Eventually I had to close my shop within 5 months because I only had 1 time buyers around this location. This was a very stressful time and I lost the investment in my shop and I didn't want to invest into another physical shop ever again.
So then I started to think how I can sell my clothes online. I had a Facebook page that I created before but I didnβt really use it and only had 1000 Likes at that time. I decided to develop it again and work on it daily.
I was really surprised with early results as I got a big order of 1000 USD. That gave me great belief to start my online. I then started to model my own clothes that my mum produces by hand.
Here is my simple home studio so I can make my clothes look nice and professional.
I modeled my pats, skirts and shorts, all traditional Thai style design.
π The name of my online shop on Facebook is: Orawan Pha Thai
Now my Facebook page has over 50,000 LIKES. π
Then an amazing thing happened, I started to get orders each and every day from teaching myself online marketing and especially how to sell on Facebook
I needed to have much more of my clothes available in stock.
And I had to send produce orders to my customers at the post office every day.
My business grew much bigger and I got better organized and more experience.
If you enjoyed this post then I would be happy to share exactly how and what I did to better sell my products on Facebook.
And I would be very encouraged and happy with your comment and Upvotes.
