Dropshipping is a technique where a wholesaler receives customer orders and shipment details from retailers. The ordered items are then shipped by the wholesaler to the customer. This means that the goods are not stocked by the retailer. The retailer is charged by the wholesaler. The retailers profit is the difference between the wholesale and retail price.

It can be difficult to decide what to sell online, and where to find reputable suppliers. With so many options and advertisements, it can be easy to fall victim of the many scams occuring on the net. This is no different to making an offline business decision, and it always pays to do your homework.

Spending some time thoroughly researching your market, products, suppliers, customers etc. can save you money effort and a whole lot of time in the future.
