Want to start Drop Shipping

This can sway in two very different directions. It can be a substantial savings or a huge loss. It has been a while since I used it my self. But at my old job we used two drop ship locations for certain items. You really need to sit down and do the math. We had items that were heavy, and had a shelf life on them. So being able to get a few high selling items to different parts of the country allowed us to sell them, ship them ground and still get them to everywhere in the continental US within 2 business days. This was great for us. Shipping was expensive and a deterrent for customers. They would always look to buy local.To combat this we would discount the shipping and eat that loss ourselves. Now we saved money on shipping ourselves (which covered the cost of the drop shipper) customers got their products quicker and paid less for shipping. Units sold increased and we gained a stronger market share in areas we were weak. Like I said do the math and look else where. Different drop shippers charge differently. Per unit, weight, space taken are all things that can cost you money. You need to find the right balance of items and location to really make it worth your wild.

Everyone will have a different experience when it comes to drop shipping. I think the best way to really get started is to do your research. Find a supplier willing to drop ship and begin searching for your niche. This is where most people will fail and lose money, don’t choose items to sell based on your interest. You may be better off by finding a product that will not be affected by brand loyalty.

For example, people generally don’t care what brand phone charger they buy. All it needs to do is work and their needs are satisfied. Use this method of thinking to find your niche. Once you are confident you have a product that will sell and has a good profit margin, you can begin small by putting them up for sale on eBay and Amazon. If you are successful in your efforts, things will snowball and you will be able to create your own website.

Regardless of where you plan to offer items online (eBay, Amazon or even open your own online store) in the event that you are beginning a business offering items from home then you likely would prefer not to convey much, assuming any, stock. The vast majority who are beginning their first online business by means of barters or online stores don't have a ton of cash to purchase a group of items or the space to distribution center and store the items they need to offer on the web. This is the place working with a genuine Dropshipper will spare you a huge amount of cash.

I like to use ebay to Amazon arbitrage. Although I am not limited to Amazon as a source. I also use other reputable stores as well. If you know how to do it right, it can work.

Drop shipping can be a really sketchy area and most people think badly of it because margins can be tight.

However, if you know what your doing and have a solid strategy which proves itself, then theres nothing stopping you.
