STEP BY STEP

From an idea to an online store.

I used primary research, secondary research, planning and testing to make decisions. Each stage produced evidence that can be included in the assessment appendix.

01

Choosing the business idea

I investigated skincare, school technology kits, gym accessories and jewellery. I chose jewellery because it suited an online store, offered a wide product range and could be sold at student-friendly prices.

EVIDENCE COLLECTEDInitial product research and comparison notes
02

Customer survey

I surveyed 103 students to learn what they buy online, how much they spend and what makes them trust a store. Jewellery and accessories received 36 selections. Most respondents normally spent under $50.

03

Analysing customer needs

Quality was the strongest product factor, receiving 98 selections. Customer reviews, secure payments and a clear return policy were the main trust factors. The results showed that Elvarune needed clear information, fair prices and a professional design.

04

Comparing suppliers

I compared Nihao Jewelry, Angels Whisper and Aumora. I considered product cost, material, delivery and expected profit. I selected Aumora because its products use 316L stainless steel, resist water and tarnishing, and ship from Melbourne.

EVIDENCE COLLECTEDThree supplier comparison tables
05

Selecting the launch range

I selected ten Aumora products: five gold and five silver. The range includes necklaces, earrings and bracelets priced from $29.99 to $36.99. This gives customers different styles while keeping every item below $40.

Creating the brand and website

I created the name Elvarune Jewellery and used a gold, silver, cream and black colour scheme. I developed a working online store with product filters, a shopping bag, delivery information and a test checkout.
