Dropshipping is easiest online business

If you still don’t know dropshipping, it is one of theeasiest online business that’s why it is very popular in Facebook. I have
numerous friends in Facebook who post everyday what they are selling. Sometimes
it is annoying to see 5 posts of different persons but the message is the same –
clothing, apparel, accessories, shoes and other personal items. I have checked the
ins and outs of dropshipping and I’d say it is one good business for the young people
particularly those who are Facebook addicts with lots of friends. I have asked some
of those in the dropshipping business and they admit that they are selling and earning
quite a good income although not really substantial. All they do is to post the
pictures of the items and when they receive an order, they forward it to their supplier
who will do the rest of the transaction. The dropshipper will just be waiting for
his commission on the sales.

Dropshipping is great because you don't have to take any of the risks. All you have to do is make sure that the company gets some sales and buy through you, you will then receive some commission from the sales. If you do it correctly then you can make quite a large amount and a decent amount of money. The thing is you need an extremely good strategy such as an established blog to try to attract customers to buy the products. That can take some time. And unfortunately, when you start out the commissions won't be as good.

Yeah,I love Drop shipping,With dropshipping, you are only responsible for marketing and selling the products. Another person in the supply chain worries about product, inventory, packaging and shipping. But that means rather than finding efficiencies in the system, you’ll need to get very clever to take on Amazon, big box stores and other dropshipping ecommerce stores. Is that simple? ;D

My experience with drop shipping ended as a dismal failure. The idea that we did not have to purchase or store the merchandise was appealing. We were also given a free membership. All we had to do was advertise the products. Maybe it was because we were new to the online world, but we got nowhere with our efforts. We advertised in the classified ads. We never posted to social media, because we did not know that we could. If you can be successful the do it. We gave up! I decided to blog and try to monetize and build my own affiliate marketing websites. That's hard to but it's not impossible to make money.

I think there are pros and cons and pluses and minuses to any online business. I don't have that many people on my friend's list, but I do talk to some people online. For me, it would really depend on how much would need to be invested. It sounds like there is pretty minimal investment on your part, and if that is the case, I would take part in it. After all as they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Facebook page based drop-shipping will be called as reselling though. Drop-shipping is something you do for other whole-sellers. And here you are selling and doing all the task of backend and not the shipping and stuff. Those are done by the wholesalers themselves. I think if you are using the platform like shopify and oblero. Then in such case you'd do much better with the drop-shipping business.

Agreed, dropshipping is one of the easiest online businesses. You don't need big investment to start a drop shipping business. You don't even need to create your website. You can do drop shipping through ebay. Open an ebay store, find your niche and merchants and start selling products. When someone buys your product and pays you, you can forward the payment to the merchant after cutting your commission.
Another easy business is affiliate marketing. However, in order to do affiliate marketing, you need a website. managing a website can be costly.

So you mean a dropshipper is someone who works for the supplier on a commission basis?
And it means too, that she has no working capital at all. Only her facebook account is her capital.
That makes it so easy indeed.
But if I were the dropshipper, once she has the capital she should also start her own online business, because anyway, she already has lots of clients.

I'm seeing many people in youtubetalking about dropshipping. There are dropshippers earns 6 figure income
monthly. Others claim that they became millionaire by doing dropshipping. I am
actually intrigued about this way of earning so I did a research about
dropshipping.

I've watched tutorials on youtube on how tostart dropshipping. It is so great because even you are selling, you don't have
to worry about your supplies and your storage because once a customer places an
order, you just have to fill out your customers information directly to the
suppliers order page and the product will be delivered by the suppliers to your
customer.

All you have to do is create youronline store, get products from companies that have websites that offers
dropshpping, grab the products image and details and post it on your online
store and create copy to attract buyers. And creating your online store is not
a problem also because there's online store platform that allows you to create
your own online store which is easy to setup and you just have to pay the
monthly fee for using their system.

I was so excited about dropshipping but Ihesitated to try it because I'm leaving in the Philippines and most of the
suppliers for dropshipping come from US, Europe, and China which means if I
place an order for my customer, it will take many days or even month before my
customer receives. And it may disappoint the customers. Maybe if there's a
company that offers dropshipping in our country, I will do the dropshipping
business.

In order to sell locally, you need aa dropshipping company that ships locally. If your dropshipping company is located in the US and your customer is in the Phillippines, then it may not be profitable because shipping charge will be high and delivery time very long. However, if your customer is in the US and the dripshipping company is also in the US, it can be profitable.
