How Can You Sell Electronics Online? 

It’s easy to sell your electronics online with a platform as easy as Shopify. Here’s how you can set up and start selling your products online:

1. Customers would land on your electronics website and find the products they want to buy.
2. Since electronics shopping requires heavy research, customers spend time reading reviews and understanding the technical details of the products. 
3. Customers can choose their preferred payment option and even how they want to receive their order— via no-contact delivery or store pick-up.
4. Once the order is placed, you can review details in the backend and begin preparing it safely according to the customer’s request.
5. If the customer selected store pick-up, they will drive by your store and pick up the order on the date they chose for the store pick-up.
6. If the customer has selected no-contact doorstep delivery, your delivery partner will pick up the order from your store and make the delivery.
