First you start a retail business. “Online” isn’t a business model. Once you have a successful business, you hire a web developer to build you a website.

If you want to do it all yourself you’re going to have to learn HTML, CSS, computer programming, Javascript, PHP and SQL (to start). Figure 2-5 years.

You don’t perform operations on yourself, do you? Or represent yourself in court? Why do you think you can develop your own website? It takes almost as long to learn website development as it takes to learn medicine or law. (Do your own site and do it wrong and you could get sued by customers who were financially injured by your lack of knowledge – and your business would be out of business, and paying off a HUGE judgment.)

On line WON’T WORK… And you have not even remotely considered this business venture seriously yet.
But the business concept is a potential success, however you are looking at this completely in a word WRONG
if you have a large enough city, ability to undercut established competition, offer delivery, work for free or lose lots of money, and are dealing with highly flammable gas, plus the Mylar, plastics and other balloon materials, are of such a nature, you could have damaged 500 retail dollars of product in a blink of an eye. And have related business products that have a far higher profit margin and far greater volume.
There is a chain of stores exceeding 6000 units that sells balloons, and their design is to use the balloons as a traffic generator.
Your product is an impulse item, fairly cheap and have very small profit margins, plus is briefly labor intensive.
People send/take balloons to hospitalized folks, and for new born babies, for the benefit of the parents, to birthday parties of all ages, retirement parties at work, sometimes to family pic- nic, for the children to tie a message to, and release, seeing who finds and replies, carnivals/downtown festivals, where impulse spending occurs.
Where you won’t sell weddings for the most part, and not likely funerals, unless the departed requested it, job firings and people being sent to jail.
Why don’t you start by reading some entrepreneur manuals, any of the for dummies books in marketing, or eBay or small business…contact SCORE, business coaches, who can help in lots of areas, which is FREE, as part of the Small Business Administration. [Government/federal, phone book SBA]
if you are going to try to sell on line, you need price, being cheaper than brick and mortar store fronts, quality equal to the stores, and the fact people will wait for delivery, and therefore as you have lower costs, you offer lower price.
In a related type of product that might allow you to succeed, I suggest the following: flags national, universities, historical, holiday, and fun or seasonal flags… In the same product line is wind socks and wind chimes. And for a final line bird feeders and bird houses.
