Ready to Go Online Black Hair Products and Stylists Business
$6,000.00 – $10,200.00
The Ready to Go Online Businesses are delivered as actual businesses, ready to accept online orders. The e-commerce businesses include African-Caribbean groceries, barbers, hair stylists, hair care products, and also body care and wellness services and products.
These businesses were chosen because of their strategic importance to the Black Community and, with the exception of hair styling, have been heavily dominated by business owners from other racial communities.
This is a clear sign that the Black Community requires support and direction to achieve this first stage of economic sufficiency of producing within the community the basic products and services which the community needs. The lending practices of the major financial institutions have greatly contributed to this inequity.
Our Ready-to-Go Online Businesses are Game Changers! Our program also offers critical technology training in operating an online e-commerce platform as well as marketing and advertising support.
Funding is also available!
Description
Market Need: This e-commerce platform is a must for all Black Hairdressers. This is a great opportunity to start or grow your own business. The website supports online booking of hairdressing services as well as the sale of Black Women’s hair products, such as braiding hair and extensions and wigs, and accessories such as hair treatments and products.
Business Model: We provide two different business models for this e-commerce platform. The first is the Stand-Alone concept which is suited to a one-person operation of the business owner who provides mobile services as well as sells products online. This costs $6,000. We also provide a Multi-vendor platform that creates a marketplace where more than one service provider can sign up to provide services and the business owner has the option of earning a commission on the earnings of the additional service providers on the platform instead of or in addition to also providing their services on the platform. The Multi-vendor model costs $10,000. This is a demo of the type of online business that will be delivered.
This e-commerce business model supports offering mobile services where clients book online and Black hairdressers travel to provide their services to the clients at an agreed location. This is an extension of the traditional model of providing hairdressing services from one geographical location. The Multi-vendor platform enables the business owner to contract with local service providers to provide mobile services in various localities and achieve the impact of having a physical store in various locations, without the added overhead costs. This also provides time-saving benefits for customers who no longer have to travel long distances to a business location.
You are able to purchase either of these types of businesses by going through the checkout process and paying the initial deposit and we will contact you to finalize the purchase and sign the agreement.
This e-commerce business is a great opportunity for a new business owner or an established business owner who wants to reach new customers and grow. Anyone who is interested in Black hairdressing services will be able to find such a business through search engines like Google or Bing. Additionally, business growth could be achieved by distributing local flyers and listing services and products on online Black MarketPlaces such as Boupon.ca. Customer engagement could be sustained by posting new content regularly and by offering unannounced promotions and discounts to reward those who visit frequently.
Over $50, 000 in value: We have provided working examples of each type of business on the following e-commerce platforms: Africarib.ca, Blaxters.ca, BlackHairandBeauty.ca, and Earthsource.ca. Complete e-commerce platforms similar to our Ready to Go Online Businesses can cost more than $50,000 and will take a lot of time and input from the client to finalize.

Hundreds of hours have gone into the creation of each of the online businesses and a further 20 hours of customization of pictures and design is provided for each business, to ensure that each e-commerce platform is unique and suits the client’s preferences.
Complete e-commerce solution: We provide a complete e-commerce solution that includes search engine optimization of the website to enable services and products to appear in search results. We also provide marketing and advertising plans that each business owner can customize by identifying their target market location to implement their marketing and advertising strategies. After finalizing the marketing and advertising plan, the business owner may choose to self-implement or to have us implement the strategy. There will be an additional cost for stand-alone businesses to implement a marketing plan. We also provide hosting and maintenance of the website for a flat fee or a small percentage of the monthly sales.
