Why Velison

Why Velison? 

Before starting Velison, I was an online seller on TradeMe, New Zealand’s local auction site.

1. I had a hard time finding wholesale and manufacturers with real wholesale prices…

2. It was difficult to find suppliers who would work with a new business and offer low or no minimum orders…

3. I couldn’t tell whether a supplier was legitimate, or if they would take my money and run…

4. I struggled to decide which products to sell and when to sell them…

5. The amount of information out there was overwhelming, but so much of it was out of date, low in quality, or just plain wrong…

 

I wasted a lot of time trying to find the right suppliers, products, and info. Everything I needed to be successful was scattered between a bunch of websites, tools, and training resources.

Despite these challenges, I did manage to run a profitable online business (eventually), and other sellers took notice and began asking me how I did it.

My answers weren’t very satisfying because my success was due to a lot of trial and error. This made me realize there had to be a better way...

So I teamed up with Eric Zhang, a successful Internet entrepreneur, and started Velison to give sellers everything they need to be successful in one affordable place.
