Advice on Mobile Accessories Business.

Im starting a small pushcart business with a friend of mine. we have a good supplier source from china with good quality and unique mobile accessories: such as covers, cases and bags. Could anyone in similar business advise me on the consumer demand? I see a lot, I mean a lot... , of small shops selling those.

Any tips on price range that people are usually keen to buy accessories? We are doing market research and most consumers arent willing to fork out much to buy from a pushcart even if the quality is there. How do I raise quality/brand awareness to the prospects?

Any kind of advice from seniors and fellow entrepreneurs here will be greatly appreciated.

Thats where u are wrong. I have friends paying $100 for damn good casing for iphone. Check out stores like mobile fashion. They sell at prices much higher than most stores but still manage to have quite a few outlets locally.

@meinteel, Yeah I will have to look more into it. :thanx:

I will be turning to internet for help with sales as well.

- own website (probably a free one first)
- ebay ads
- forum ads
- facebook page

Would you recommend "wordpress.org" as a good start for website? I am thinking have a site that display pictures of my products while the buy link could be redirected to ebay ads. If anyone has a "free" shopping cart option, could you please share some ideas with me as well?
