商務英語口語對話:網上開店賺大錢
A: Earning extra income on the Internet is easier than you might think. After I started selling traditional craft items on the Internet last year, I have really been able to make bank doing something I love.
B: Is that right? I hear all these horror stories of internet business crashing because there is not enough of a customer base yet. How can you be sure your idea will cash in?
A: To run a successful internet business, it requires a little research and relatively small investment. You've got to have a good idea of some kind of product that is in demand or would be popular.
B: That's marketing research.... But what about getting started once you have an idea?
A: After you have your great idea, then you can set up shop by registering a domain name, creating a website, an email address, and a hosting service. If you want to go all out on your website, you can put together shopping cart technology, but that can be pricey to start out with.
B: Sounds like a lot of work!
A: Anything worth doing takes work. Money doesn't grow on of us have to work for it.
通過因特網掙點兒外快比你想的藥容易得多.我從去年開始在網上賣傳統的工藝品,現在我真的有本事賺到錢去做我喜歡做的事情了.
真有這事?我聽說很多可怕的故事,是關於網絡生意因爲沒有足夠的顧客基數而失敗了.你怎麼確定你的點子就能發財?
要想搞好網絡生意就要做一點市場調查,還要有點較小的投資.你還得有個好點子,買那種銷路好或將來會暢銷的產品.
這就是市場調查...但是你一旦有了點子又是如何開始創業的呢?
有了好點子之後呢,你就可以通過註冊域名,建立網站,電子郵箱和寄存服務來開個商店.如果你想全力以赴把站點做好,你可以利用一下購物車技術,但開始時費用會有點高.
聽起來要做的事情真多!
任何值得一做的事情都要花精力.錢不會長在樹上,,,我們大多數人都得努力工作才能賺到錢.
