Ive been developing a Wordpress/WooCommerce site as a hobby for last couple of months and now its starting to get finished. But I dont have any good ideas what im going to sell there, so far I have done just translations to local language, customizing the shop, setting all up.

First I was thinking of having some pocket squares produced locally and sell them but I dont believe its big enough market here for this.

Do you have any ideas/suggestions what kind of products to sell? I dont like cheap chinese plastic stuff, should be something better but the unit cost per item should be something like 10-50.

Yep, digital products are great: ebooks, membership sites, video courses, audio courses, skype consulting (if you want to offer a service). Just be sure to get the elements of your sales funnel in order. You want a good product, a good sales page and a good email marketing funnel.

Good luck on your endeavour

Any helpful resources you would recommend on how to put a good sales funnel together?

If you have good taste in pocket squares, don't throw in the towel. There are millions of wealthy men out there missing that extra sizzle in their suits.

I recently watched an interview featuring Mark Cuban, who spoke of a young guy who got rich selling shoelaces. As I remember, he'd go to college football games and tell people to support their team's colors.

Here's another guy who got rich selling shoelaces, about 100,000 shoelaces in a little over a year of starting.

You can start off pitching your product to men's clothing stores at your local malls, but don't limit yourself to Estonia. The market is bigger than you probably think. Target charity events, upscale venues, weddings, proms, etc. Make YouTube videos of men being surrounded by women only after adding the pocket square.

Become an expert and blog with quality photos. Give reviews on famous men's suits. Look to other successful fashion blogs for ideas.

Very often, products get sold due to the seller's passion and marketing, so pick something and have fun with it!

I concur on the digital products.

One other thing is to sell locally sourced products. If Estonia has some kind of unique product or local brand, which may still be cheap, then you could try selling to the German and English speaking markets or even the rich Scandi markets.

I'm actually also looking to get into an online business kind of thing. Naturally I have 0 idea what I'm doing, but I was told pushing physical goods through eBay and other similar platforms is a solid move. If so, all I really care about is turn around rate. I've thought about men's fashion (ties/suits/pocketsquares) thoughts? However, this digital goods thing sounds appealing, I don't really have much training in computing and such, is there anything out there to kind of "wing it" without knowing what you're doing before you start?

Ideally you'd sell something that lots of people want to buy.
