What type of online store can I create for my shopping service business?

[nakurucr]

I would like honest advice about my Shopify goal.

I offer an online shopping service in my country. People come to me to shop at stores like Amazon, Walmart, eBay, Shein, etc. Normally because they don't know how to go through the shopping process on these sites or because they don't want to bother with the logistics.

I make the purchase on the website, send the package to a warehouse in Florida, where they consolidate the package and ship it to my country. Finally, I receive the package and deliver it to its respective owner.

Now in context... What kind of store can I create on Shopify that suits my type of business? I offer a shopping service, but I don't stock the products my customers want to buy.

Hello @nakurucr ,

Based on your context, we recommend you to create a service-based store that offers online shopping services to customers. You can try to:

• Choose your theme: Choose a suitable theme for service-based store like "Handy" or "Handyman"
• Start customize and create pages for your service.
• Set up a form for customers to submit request: You can use Shopify's built-in form builder or a third-party app to create a form that allows customers to submit their shopping requests. 
• Set up payment processing
• Manage orders and fulfillment: ensure your order fulfilled correctly, this include purchased product from the retailer, arrange it to be shipped to your warehouse, and then forward it on to the customer.
• Provide customer support: add a customer support section  updates on the status of their orders and any issues that arise throughout the process

Hope these can help you out. Let us know if you need any further support.
