I'd like to know what your current strategy is for selling a lot in e-commerce. Of course, all of this if you can share it, because I think it would be good if we all helped each other figure out what to correct in our strategy and achieve much more sales.

First you need to determine whether you want to sell from your self hosted store or ecommerce markets, secondly, you need to manufacture, create or procure the products you want to sell. Before you choose your product you will have to do a lot of research and see if it has demand or not, and whether it is saturated or not.
Okay, but this seems to me more like a basic guide or a simple tutorial of the first steps than a strategy. Once I do all this, what's next?
You should start with predefined goals, defined target audience, SEO-optimized product pages, social media marketing, and great customer service. I focus on storytelling and user-generated content to build trust, which consistently boosts my sales.

You need audience, either on your website or on social media or newsletters. As long as there is audience, you can sell. If you don't have it start building audience before you start building your ecommerce store.

One thing that I know that boosts sales on e-commerce platforms is reputation. When an e-commerce store can build a positive reputation, it would make massive sales with time. Be transparent about products, shipping and adverts. Partner with local influencers to offer targeted ads to likely customers.
