In this article she shares her tips about how to save budget for new online startups. Precious resource at early stages of the business that should be invested in a smart way.

1) Integrations vigilance.

It's natural for beginner entrepreneurs to be willing to enter new marketplaces and make your offer available for more customers. When integrating your business with other platforms, be vigilant about hidden risks of listing your products in "paid" categories. For example, when exporting your products to eBay, make sure no subtitles are automatically created, which can save you over AUD$250 a month.

2) Affiliate marketing due diligence.

Don't lock yourself into long-term contracts without trialling the platform. Research your competitors and see which influencer marketing they use. Negotiate a one or two months' trial to see any traction. If successful or you are starting to receive a great response, go for it. If not, you've saved good few hundreds or thousands to invest in other areas of your business with more ROI.

3) Research the ecommerce platform.

This point comes last whereas it is perhaps the most important factor when it comes to saving budget for startups. The platform should be easy to manage and you should be able to do all tasks (or majority) by yourself (e.g. change banners, create promotion, add articles, etc). Avoid reaching out to developers as every little change takes at least 0.5 hour of the developer's time and you may be surprised that you can easily spend a few hundred dollars on tweaking your website.

Lack of resources should not be seen as an obstacle as long as they are managed in the right way.

Good luck with starting your online business and may it be a rewarding venture!
