Starting up a business to benefit the sisters of islam

Welcome to the forum .

In regards to name, so many ideas on this thread check them out: http://www.islamicboard.com/business...-business.html

I've been in the eCommerce biz, so if you need help with the site feel free to ask me. I've never been in clothing sector, however I can ask my friend who owns successful Hijab online store to come and help you on the thread. Looking at his website he focuses on cheap Hijabs and fast delivery speeds.

Setting yourself apart obviously is a great move. Good questions so far, also think about these:

• Are you unique?
• If so, in what way?
• Can you definitely prove it?
• If you're not unique, are you better at what you do than the competition? And if so, what exactly is it that makes you better?
• Can you demonstrate in easily understandable language (not BS) what it is that makes you better or different?
• Do you provide quality--either at a price or irrespective of price?
• Do you provide value? And that doesn't necessarily mean offering the cheapest prices or matching those of some fly-by-night outfit that could very well not be around tomorrow.
• If you believe you provide value, can you express it in 20 words or less, spelling out what is the unquestionable benefit you provide at a fair price to satisfied customers?
• Do you back up your quality products or services with rock-solid, no-questions-asked guarantees and unmatched customer relationships?
• Are you totally reliable? This goes beyond the above two points and is the reason why some companies have been in business for years, while seemingly not being different than other companies with similar products and services. Perhaps a better way of posing the question would be, Does your company have integrity?
• Do you give the impression that you've been around for a while and intend to be around for a good deal longer? That anyone dealing with you, (particularly in a B2B relationship), should be assured that you will unhesitatingly solve to their complete satisfaction any and all problems that might occur in your business relationship?
• Even though it may not necessarily be seen as an obvious bottom-line revenue generator, are you prepared to spend time helping solve customers' problems, irrespective of whether this is part of the service you normally provide?
• If you've been in business for a while, do you have solid and reference-proof case studies, particularly with locally recognizable satisfied customers, that you can talk about in your advertising? Can potential customers call your existing customers to verify their experiences with you?
