Dropshipping Basics.
If you’re just getting started with dropshipping, it’s common to have a lot of questions. Here are answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Dropshipping is a business model that allows you to sell products without maintaining any inventory. When a customer places an order on your website, you forward the order details to the supplier. The supplier then packages and ships the product directly to your customer.
There are just five simple steps:
1. You create an online store.
2. A customer buys a product from your store (selling price: $100).
3. You forward this order to your supplier (supplier price: $60).
4. The supplier delivers the product directly to your customer.
5. You pocket the difference: $40 ($100-$60).
The supplier. One advantage of dropshipping is that you are not required to maintain any inventory. Just forward the order to your supplier, and the supplier takes care of the rest (including the delivery).
Before you pay your supplier to ship the product, the customer pays you on your website. You take a part of this revenue to fulfill the order. Hence, you pay your supplier only after the customer has paid you.
You bet. Dropshipping is a low-risk business model that does not require you to hold any inventory. It is a lean business model that eliminates unnecessary overhead expenses, allowing you to increase your margins.
Absolutely. Like any other fulfillment model, dropshipping is 100% legal. In fact, some of the biggest retailers in the world, like Amazon, have been using the dropshipping business model for years.
If you are just getting started, it is not compulsory to register your business. We recommend that you formalize your business once you start getting sales regularly. Please consult with a legal professional before making any decisions.
