Finding Good Suppliers

by nuthowz

I am currently looking into different niche markets that I believe have potential. I can easily develop a website for them . The only BIG issue I have is trying to find a supplier for them. In essence I don't want to have to do the shipping and warehousing. I just want to do the front end stuff.

Has anyone here done this? If so, then where should I search to find suppliers. Web based or locally? I prefer web based since the area in which I reside things are slim to none.

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Are you referring to 'dropshipping?' I think you are. Put the term in the search feature on this forum and see what pops up. I've seen these threads in the past, so I know they're on here. Good luck.

    Alibaba has some great deals but is a scammers haven. Buyer beware!

    It depends on the niche and the amount of volume you think you'll be doing.

    You might be able to go directly to a manufacturer or have to go through a distributor/wholesaler. Do a little market research and see what products your competitors or larger companies that also cater to your niche are selling. You can ask them "where it's from" or you could even work out a deal where they can provide you some stuff at wholesale prices.
