Dropshipping Leads

By Amanda Tan


Many people employ drop shippers to handle the supply and shipment of their products. Drop shipping is common among eBay and other net stores as it allows store owners to offer many various products to their customers without having to worry about storing, packing, and shipping them.

Dropshipping allows outlets to sell products one at a time from direct provider to their clients and then the wholesaler ships your order straight to your buyer. Most dropshipping sources will ship your clients order in plain packing that includes your company name and info. Often dropshipping companies will even print your trademark on your customer's packages so it would appear that their order came right from your company. Most drop-shipping sources do a good job of hiding the fact that you used a drop shipping company and your buyer won't ever know the difference. After your buyer places an order and pays for the product and shipping, you pay your drop shipper the wholesale price plus shipping and keep the difference as profit.

The primary merit of dropshipping is that you don't need to store, package, or ship products yourself. This advantage is especially great for people who run a small enterprize at home and don't have the space to store plenty of stock. It is known to be good for folk with larger companies but who can't afford to rent or purchase warehouse space to keep additional stock in. Drop shipping lets you spend a little more time developing, marketing, and improving your business instead of packaging and shipping out orders.

While dropshipping does save you serious amounts of time and storage, it also cost more than if you purchased your products right from the wholesaler. Drop shippers often charge a little more per product or add an additional fee on to drop shipped orders. Sometimes the savings of time and space for storing are worth the additional price and other times they don't seem to be. You are going to have to research the additional value of dropshipping matched against the amount of space-time you will save to see if drop shipping is the finest choice for your business. If you should opt to drop ship and not store any products, you may also only be well placed to sell the products that your drop shipper offers which may limit you in product choices. Dropshipping can be the best choice for your business but it's very important to consider all of the sides of using a drop-shipping company before choosing to use one to work out if it's the best choice for you.

If you do decide to go with a drop shipper, your next challenge is finding one with products you're interested in selling, one with a solid rep, and one with the best prices. There are 1 or 2 major drop shipping corporations that many folks use, and while these firms often have decent reputations the market is already saturated with their products. It's advisable to search a little to find a drop shipper that offers products that aren't already circulating widely.
