Struggling to Get Orders for My Online Grocery Store – How Can I Market Effectively?

I want some suggestions about my e-commerce venture based on online grocery. I started an online grocery site known as combobazaar.com in June 2015. I marketed it at all levels, but I still didn't receive any orders. Please give me some suggestions on what to do now and how to market it effectively to reach needy customers.

Dear Baisware,

Online grocery shopping is now very common in the world of e-commerce. This particular niche is highly competitive when it comes to ranking. Have you tried other marketing methods like media or FM?

Personally, the goal of online grocery shopping is to make the customers' lives simpler. Why not try to make it even easier? Consider creating a mobile app and sharing it. Since this market is emerging, it may attract more customers.

Thank you.

Differentiating Your E-Grocery Business

Your venture is one among many. How does a customer differentiate? A customer is only interested in ordering, getting timely delivery, and receiving a price discount if possible. So, look for ways you can differentiate your business from other e-grocery retailers.

Probably, consider higher exposure in media, offering a higher discount if you can afford it, quicker delivery of items, and a wider range of items. Every suggestion has its own downsides and additional costs. Credit sales might be feasible for known and identified customers. Consider tying up with some cafes, hotels, etc.

All the best in your venture.
