Introduction:
And due to changing fashion trends, dressing choices have altered in India, yet sarees are still the number one choice and are highly prized. Women wear it to family gatherings and festivals, as well as to work.

Step 1 - Understand the saree business:
Before you start selling sarees, you need to know your sarees well enough. Like - what’s the difference between a banarasi and bandhani? How much time does it take to create a saree and what’s the manufacturing cost like? Make a list of all the parameters you need to know.

Step 2- Know which sarees you want to sell:
Lock the kind of sarees you want to sell - fabric and design-wise. Figure out if you want to design these yourselves with a team or if you want to buy these in bulk from vendors and manufacturers and then sell them for retail.

Step 3 - Set your target customers:
Find out which income groups you want to cater to. Do you want to cater only to women or anyone who likes to don a beautiful saree - trans folks, non-binary persons, or even men? Which parts of the country do you want to sell your product to? Do you want to target the everyday wear market or occasion wear market?

Step 4 - Devise a business plan:
Include these costs in the business plan - The prices of sarees, marketing, logistics, human resources (salaries), internet, and other miscellaneous expenses. This will help you reach the total capital needed for your online saree business. The prices of your sarees would depend on the material and design you use.

Step 5 - Catalog the sarees:
At this juncture, you can sample some sarees with your vendor and team. And you can also get them photographed for the catalog. You can do this yourself without anyone, but professional help is advisable here.

Step 6 - Create a website and social accounts:
As it’s an online business that you’re planning to build, having an online presence is mandatory. Both websites and social media are great for showcasing your design and product.

Step 7 - Register your business:
Once you’ve finalised a name for your saree business, move ahead and register it as a legal entity. GST number and PAN card number are essential for this purpose. In addition to that, you will also have to register for taxes.

Step 8 - Manage the logistics and resources:
Figure out how you’d like to deliver your products to your customers. You can partner with a courier company or sell via platforms like Meesho, Etsy, Amazon, Nykaa Fashions, and Myntra, to name a few.

Step 9 - Invest in online marketing:
Nothing sells without marketing these days. Even if your product is top-notch, the best quality in the industry, you will need to market your product via ads and native content.
