But first, we need to make it clear that the Internet is a MEDIUM to sell your fashion related products online, but doesn’t necessarily guarantee sales, there is a whole lot to put into marketing online to make it work, but not to worry, you’re in the right place. 🙂

Social Media Marketing
Social media as we all know is an interaction point online, where users get to engage with each other’s content. Fashion brands take advantage of its enormous population and markets products using social media marketing strategies.
On platforms like Facebook & Instagram you can create a page or an account where you get to showcase your fashion related products and even run paid Ad campaigns, giving your product better reach or visibility. With this you stand a better chance of finding customers online.
But if you’re going to be posting on social media, you’d need HIGH QUALITY IMAGES, you see it’s basic psychology, people engage more with images or things that look good. So if your picture quality is bad, your engagement will be bad, If your copy isn’t persuasive enough or your content isn’t captivating enough, people will not engage with it!
Have you seen really good posts, great content, nice picture quality, but when you decide to click the page and check it out, it looks nothing like an account for a fashion website? Yes, this matters too! You must learn to optimize everything on the page to make it work for you.
Websites
The only thing about websites is that it is very costly to develop (If you’re not tech savvy) but if you feel you can find your way around it, there are certain SAAS softwares like WordPress, WIX, and Magento, that you can use and self-develop your website. (Although it is advisable to get an expert or just sell on an ecommerce site like ANQR).
Then you would want to start uploading your products to the website, so when people come on the site they can see what fashion products you sell. Now this is where your social media comes in real handy, that’s why you MUST have a good social media presence; you can’t trade this for anything. Because if you don’t have a good following, it’ll be even harder to engage with your content not to speak of clicking on a link to your website.
Your social media posts or Ad campaigns should have a call to action that links people to your page. Because remember; the essence of ALL this is to bring prospects home to your website.
