Imagine, wouldn’t it be nice to have 100,000 followers who like you on facebook?

Who doesn’t want that?

Is it even achievable if you are small business? Don’t sweat, the answer is…

(Special thanks to jim for the shooting…)

One of webShaper stores’s client, www.avalonsarees.com, now having a whopping 116,565 fans on the page! see for yourself!

http://www.facebook.com/Avalonsarees

So we are curious, we sms our beloved client, how she did it? so we send her a SMS to dig out her secret to 100,000 strong facebook fans…

So is it that simple? of course NOT! not to mention to do all the above is nothing short of challenges!

However,  we think there is more to that, these are some other critical factors too we think adding to their success too.

1) They command a niche (designer & celebrity sarees)
2) They sell globally and giving out Free shipping Worldwide!
3) Beautiful & sexy models.
4)  They give superb customer service.
5) They are passionate, else you can’t explain why their fans are so engaged!
(one posting update easily a few hundred likes, it’s hard to get this if you are not celebrity)
6) They use webShaper Stores (ok.. i admit i am bias but this is a fact, LOL )

Have any other tips to share on getting Quality Fans for your facebook page?

Share yours on the comment post! we love to hear from you.

What if i tell you they have made millions by selling just socks (more precisely, just black socks) online?

The founder of blacksocks.com, smartly blending the-so-ordinary black-socks selling in “subscription” model, they even coined the term “SOCKSCRIPTION“.

Whoever command the niche or pioneering a new way of doing things, gets to coined the term. and when you get to coin the term (like people mention CREST instead of toothpaste), you will get most of the market share and profit.

And how could people resist talking about you when you do such unique and seems-to-be-crazy things online?

So what we can learn from blacksocks.com? Craft out your own niche (like Acer Founder Stan Shih like to say: me-too-is-not-my-style).

On the web, you are either unique (niche… focus…extremely good at something) or you are a 600-pound-godzilla like Amazon.com. If you happened to be in the middle, the odd of being toasted is unbelievably high.

So are you starting up an online store? Whether you are a new bie or existing retailers with brick-and -mortar stores, I believe you will benefit from our sharing below:

Make no mistakes, although we don’t work on MACs (we are pc junkies since early junior years), but we salute Apple Engineering and Design on all of its ever sleek looking products, and i personally own 2  ipods (ipod nano + ipod shuffle generation 1). That tells you how successful they are, and the colourful ipods has even inspired us in how we design our sohoStore and miniStore e-commerce templates.

Fortune has named Steve Jobs as CEO of the decade (don’t forget his co-founder pal, Steve Wozniak, who we equally admire for his technical genius + funny characters too!).

And we think you really should not miss out the speech by steve jobs below (really, really inspiring), especially to all the small business owners and fellow entrepreneurs out there. Stay focused, stay hungry. We don’t need to be steve jobs, but we can be as successful as steve jobs within our area of influence.
