When importing products into the US it would be best to work with a customs broker. This is a person who is familiar with all regulations, and is there for you every step of the way. Once the product is here you will need to know where you will be storing & shipping from. Will you be storing at your house and handling the shipping yourself? I would recommend renting space from a third party warehouse who can candle all incoming orders, get everything packaged & shipped, and can be your primary point of contact. I do work for a third party warehouse, and if you want I can send you a private message with more information.

You need expert help on the import side.

If you ship to only the USA, Canada and Mexico, and the goods are innocuous, then you can put the import burden on the buyer.
