Therefore, the wholesale shipper bargains with the Manufacturer to buy the product either in bulk or piece by piece. The wholesale shipper also bargains with the Manufacturer concerning the shipping, as this is a vital part of how the product is marked up.&amp;nbsp; Now you the retailer look for a good distributor and wholesale shipper because in most cases they are both the same.&amp;nbsp; After you make a buying agreement with the wholesale shipper then you are ready as the retailer to set up shop.&amp;nbsp; You have your choice of a regular brick and mortar store or a virtual online store.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Today many people elect to have a website and to have an online store.&amp;nbsp; The main reason being with the use of a wholesale shipper and the ability to do drop shipments a person can start a business with practically no money or a bit of pocket change.&amp;nbsp; The wholesale shipper manages the buying of products, the storing, the shipping and even furnishing you with a website in some cases.&amp;nbsp; The opportunity that you now have is unlimited it only takes a lot of hard work.&amp;nbsp; Many business people are finding that being able to stay at home earn a sizeable income is more to their liking than going to work everyday. The wholesale shipper does the majority of the work while you as the retailer earn most of the profits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In order for you to be able, to make it all come together you need a wholesaler&#39;s directory. The number one Wholesale Directory is ONESOURCE by World Wide Brands. ONESOURCE gives you all the advantages that you would need to set up your business and keep it going making a substantial profit.&amp;nbsp; They offer drop ship, light and bulk products, along with having over 9000+ suppliers. World Wide Brands has over three million products and import wholesale supplier&#39;s products.&amp;nbsp; The World Wide Brands is the &quot;BEST&quot; Wholesale and Drop-Ship Directory with Name Brands at the absolute lowest prices!&amp;nbsp; The company offers quality supplies with secure purchasing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If you have ever wondered how people make a lot of money on eBay then wonder no more.&amp;nbsp; World Wide Brands is one of the most used companies by eBay sellers. EBay sellers have the option of just buying a single item for auction or buying in bulk for their virtual store. Since World Wide Brands is taking care of your order then all you are required to do is the billing and collecting of the money. They normally ship after you have received payment from your customer.&amp;nbsp; World Wide Brand also only uses wholesale shippers to save both you and your customers.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There are of course other Directories available on line for you to check out.&amp;nbsp; It would be a good thing for you to do just that and pay close attention to the wholesale shipping industry. The wholesale shipping program offered by different distributors may vary in that some only ship in bulk while others will ship both bulk and individual products. The wholesale shipper is the key to a good business that will last.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/2920612715331943786/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-wholesale-shipper.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/2920612715331943786'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/2920612715331943786'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-wholesale-shipper.html' title='Why use a Wholesale Shipper'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-3364221238342258004</id><published>2022-02-14T19:34:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.116-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>Why use Drop Shipping</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;In today&#39;s world, many people try to operate a profitable business by using the internet. It is much simpler to have a virtual storefront than to have a brick and mortar store. In addition, it is much cheaper to operate.&amp;nbsp; One of the major reasons that the cost of operation is minimal is due to the process known as drop shipping.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Drop shipping seems to be a magical way of getting merchandise, selling the merchandise, delivering the merchandise, while not visibly seeing the merchandise. This may sound a bit complicated but actually, it is very simple.&amp;nbsp; To use an example let us use the Dutch Maid Manufacturer of cleansers. Dutch Maid makes a lot of product but they are not in the business to sell or distribute the product.&amp;nbsp; The next group let us introduce is Mr. Distributor who is the person who goes to the Dutch Maid Manufacturer and contracts to buy the product by the case at a dollar a can or $12 a case.&amp;nbsp; The Manufacturer declares that it cost him .50cents a can to make, so there is a $6 a case profit.&amp;nbsp; The Manufacturer is happy because he has profited without having to try to sell or advertise which has greatly saved on the company&#39;s profit margin.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let us take this a step forward, as Mr. Distributor now needs to sell the product in one of two ways, which are by soliciting retail stores and having them agree to buy the product or by opening up a website where Mr. Distributor can take orders and sell on line.&amp;nbsp; In both cases, the process of drop shipping plays a vital part in Mr. Distributor business. First Mr. Distributor now has a good product for resale but does not have to keep it stored nor does he have to open up a storefront to display the product.&amp;nbsp; He is using the drop shipping method simply put the retail stores order from him and he sends the order to the Dutch Maid Manufacturer who sends the product to the customer. This is why the use of drop shipping is the best way to run a business without too much investment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This sounds like a sure fire way to make money without loosing a truly profit making opportunity.&amp;nbsp; Unfortunately, success stories are rare as those who venture into this line of business balk under the adverse and challenging realities of the competitive medium.&amp;nbsp; The primary reason for these unfortunate cases is not in the business plan or the lack of commitment on the part of those behind the idea, but rather it is inadequate and unreliable information. Most entrepreneurs fail because they did not locate genuine and legitimate wholesale and drop shipping companies.&amp;nbsp; The other reason being the drop shippers is not supplying the kind of niche goods that actually generate not only high number of sales but extremely high profits as well. The use of a good drop shipper is one of the most vital aspects of a distributors business.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/3364221238342258004/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-drop-shipping.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/3364221238342258004'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/3364221238342258004'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-drop-shipping.html' title='Why use Drop Shipping'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-2558097083230014935</id><published>2022-02-14T19:33:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.114-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>Why Use Drop Ship Products</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Today we have the whole wide world at our finger tips to select products that we want to have drop shipped to the consumers.&amp;nbsp; Major brands offer their products for an online virtual storefront hosting the website for you and providing the drop shipping. The quest is not so much selecting a product but selecting &quot;the&quot; product. First take a look at the company that you plan to use for some of the following characterizes:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Look at the over all ranking of this drop ship company in comparison to other reliable companies.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- You should be able to buy directly from the drop shipper at drop ship prices.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Depending on the specific product, can you get a free trial or a demo?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- You should be able to access the product without too much difficulty.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The company should be a Member of the BBB in good standing.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- You should be able to get the BBB Status and Rating information.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Does this company offer a sound support desk and support forum.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Are you able to get into a support knowledge base for quick answers?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- You should be able to contact the drop shipper directly.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The drop shipper should be upfront about what percentage the product is marked up.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- A very important part of the product business line is that the drop shipper ships with your name and address.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Remember if you use your credit card, you will pay out more but if you can use Papal, it will save both you and your customer.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The affiliate program is a needed tool that will increase your business.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Information is the key to most all-successful business so make sure they do offer some educational tools.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Finally find out how long they have been in business and how reliable are they.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Now that you have some good information on what to look for when you are trying to set up your drop shipper to supply you with products let us take a look at some of the best noted companies.&amp;nbsp; The following companies can be found on different search engines.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The first drop ship company that offers all the things one needs to be successful is www.usellcorp.com . Usellcorp has a full review and offers all of the above-mentioned qualifications.&amp;nbsp; They also have a huge amount of merchandise to offer you. Usell Corp has been in business since 1995 so they have been around long enough to formulate a good reputation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The second recommended drop ship company with full review is www.worldwidebrands.com&amp;nbsp; This Company offers name brand items at wholesale prices. They ship from all around the world so if you like to diversify and use a variety of goods this would be a great company for you.&amp;nbsp; Worldwide Brands has been in business since 1999 an outstanding member of the BBB, which is an excellent place for you to begin your inquiries.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The third formable company is www.truedropshippers.com, which carries an excellent record as well. Just like the other companies, you can check out their policies and their record before you decide to use one of them.&amp;nbsp; Many times these companies will send you a catalog or have one available for you to access on line.&amp;nbsp; You should most certainly check different web sites to find out what are the best products with a good turn over and a great profit margin. True Drop shippers is one of the newer companies beginning in 2003 but have so far showed their importance in the market place.&amp;nbsp; There are other companies that are acceptable but the review is not quite as high as the above three major companies.&amp;nbsp; It is not to say that they would not fit your needs and are worth your while to check them out. Let us recommend to you companies like Doba, DSDI, Drop ship Design, and Mega Goods for they too have a good reputation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The product or products you decide to sell are the utmost importance along with having a very good drop shipper that keeps the commitments of all the orders.&amp;nbsp; It takes both in order to maintain your business successfully.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/2558097083230014935/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-drop-ship-products.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/2558097083230014935'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/2558097083230014935'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/why-use-drop-ship-products.html' title='Why Use Drop Ship Products'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-9056817782569447973</id><published>2022-02-14T19:32:00.005-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.118-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>Why Are Wholesale Products Dropshipped</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Wholesalers are open to Dropshipping what ever the public demands.&amp;nbsp; The general public or the consumer determines what the retailer sells.&amp;nbsp; Consequently, wholesale products are dropship based on consumer demands.&amp;nbsp; There is a wide array of products on the market today.

On the other hand the Dropshipper may be on the other side of the world.&amp;nbsp; If you place an order today for merchandise you may receive it from Japan, China or anywhere in the world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The varied modes of good transportation today make it possible to ship items within a two to three day period from anywhere in the world. Because of the dropship business more goods and services are available to people all around the world. The Dropshipper has made it possible to get things at a faster pace.&amp;nbsp; Therefore any business with the necessary resources can become a Dropshipper.&amp;nbsp; In order to be a dropshipper there are certain things you must have in place. There are four basic things needed to become a Dropshipper. They are money, facilities, merchandise, and staff. Money is always top of any list of needs in business.&amp;nbsp; If you don&#39;t have the money you may be able to find a means to get the money.&amp;nbsp; You may want to consider borrowing the money from a bank.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A large number of businesses have to take out a loan to have start up money for such a large operation. Some businesses have to take out several loans in order to have enough money to get started.&amp;nbsp; When you have the necessary collateral, and a good business plan, banks will usually help you with the monetary resources to start a dropship business.&amp;nbsp; In addition to money you need to find a suitable location with the necessary facilities to store large quantities of merchandise. Don&#39;t forget to factor in the office space.&amp;nbsp; Distribution facilities are usually not lavishly furnished as other office space. After all dropship facilities are not usually open to the general public.&amp;nbsp; Therefore there is no need for lavish chairs to accommodate clientele.&amp;nbsp; Therefore you will see plenty of storage and hauling equipment scattered about in these facilities.&amp;nbsp; A Dropshipper needs to have resources and contacts to get merchandise as cheap as possible in order to sell wholesale.&amp;nbsp; The Dropshipper will find it also necessary to travel abroad and make contacts with merchants to get goods to wholesale.&amp;nbsp; A large number of products that Dropshippers sell come from places like China, Japan, Taiwan and other countries abroad. Some drop shippers make two to three trips abroad each year to find merchandise to wholesale.&amp;nbsp; Wholesale list are sent out to retailers to inform them of new merchandise when it becomes available.&amp;nbsp; So any business that has these resources in place can become a Dropshipper.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some chain stores have a drop shipper to handle the distribution of merchandise to customers. The Dropshipper is heavily used with catalog companies.&amp;nbsp; Have you ever wondered why the address on the package delivered is not the same address you sent your order&amp;nbsp; The Dropshipper?s address is not the same as the company?s address.&amp;nbsp; So who is a Dropshipper The Dropshipper can be any business that has the necessary resources in place.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;There are many other details that have to be worked out such as staff, insurance, policies, guidelines and transportation.&amp;nbsp; All major forms of transportation will work with a Dropshipper and be glad to do business with the Dropshipper.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/5368502130020162008/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/who-is-dropshipper.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/5368502130020162008'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/5368502130020162008'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/who-is-dropshipper.html' title='Who is the Dropshipper'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-3539209515339177703</id><published>2022-02-14T19:30:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.116-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>Who are Wholesale Drop Shippers?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Wholesale drop shippers have existed for years even before the internet opened up to the wide world.&amp;nbsp; Product distribution explains drop shipping so let us check out what exactly product distribution is about. In the olden days drop shipping started out as a simple procedure of getting products to the consumer. The Ajax Manufacturing company made cleaning supplies as an example and that was all that they did.&amp;nbsp; The individual entrepreneur approached the Ajax Manufacture about getting the cleaning supplies in large quantities with an over all savings.&amp;nbsp; The Manufacturer was happy to accommodate, as they were not in the business of selling.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The distributor then approached several retail outlet stores and offered them Ajax cleaners at a very reasonable price.&amp;nbsp; In turn, the retail outlet could mark up the product and sell it to his consumer.&amp;nbsp; All involved from the Manufacturer to the distributor to the retail outlet made a profit.&amp;nbsp; The consumer found the product they wanted at a price they felt was reasonable.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;This simple equation will help explain the above scenario.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;1. Ajax Manufacturing sold products to a distributor for $12.00 a case of 12. Cost to make was .50cts per can. (profit $6.00)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;2. The distributor sold the case to retail outlets for $24.00 a case. (profit $12.00)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;3. The Retail Outlet marked each can out at $$3.50 a can (profit $18.00)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;4. At a regular store, the Ajax cleaning products sold out at $4.50 a can so the consumer saved $1.00.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The beauty behind drop shipping is that the distributor places the order to the Manufacturer who in turn drops ships to the Retailer; therefore, the distributor does not have to buy in advance nor keep a lot of stock on hand.&amp;nbsp; The process is so simple that it is hard to loose money on this type of procedure.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The invention of the internet greatly increased the business of drop shipping to a very profitable at home business. The idea of distribution started at the beginning of time with the first cave dweller trading fire for wood. For it is said without wood the fire will not remain and with out fire there is no need for the wood to remain. It takes both in order to keep one warm.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There are two types of retailers the one stocks merchandise for resale and the other stocks no merchandise is a stockless retailer. You as a drop shipper become the stockless retailer. The first type of retailer must have money to stay in business because they need to buy the merchandise, have an adequate storage place, and a retail place for sales. The second retailer only needs a computer.&amp;nbsp; The drop shipper retailer opens up an Internet Store, with a shopping cart and the ability to accept credit cards.&amp;nbsp; Many good distributors are willing to accept your orders and ship to the designated customer.&amp;nbsp; You are not the &quot;drop shipper&quot; The company who supplies the products to your customer for you is the &quot;drop shipper&quot;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&quot;You become a Stockless Retailer&quot;.&amp;nbsp; Today there are many on line Stockless Retailers and Drop Shippers you must make sure that you are dealing with real people and companies in order to prevent any fraud towards yourself and your clients. Fraud is the biggest problem you face.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/3539209515339177703/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/who-are-wholesale-drop-shippers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/3539209515339177703'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/3539209515339177703'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/who-are-wholesale-drop-shippers.html' title='Who are Wholesale Drop Shippers?'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-5637006364098036073</id><published>2022-02-14T19:29:00.007-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.117-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>When you decide to dropship</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;So you have decided to go in business for your self.&amp;nbsp; Even more so you have decided to dropship your items.&amp;nbsp; Before you do, make sure that your dropship company can supply the items you have in mind. It is perhaps best to start out with a few items so that you can become familiar with the drop ship process.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Several years ago, only a few companies would dropship for you.&amp;nbsp; Today there are a large number of companies that will sell you merchandise and dropship it for you.&amp;nbsp; If you feel that this is the business for you, then you need to start looking for dropship companies.&amp;nbsp; Decide what you want to sell, and then look for all the companies that offer these items.&amp;nbsp; Consider the dropship policies along with the price of the merchandise.&amp;nbsp; Then you can determine whether to dropship the items you want to sell.&amp;nbsp; On the other hand, you need to know how much you want to make from your dropship business.&amp;nbsp; That will help you to determine the number of items to sell and what kind of items to sell. Even more so when you think of drop shipping you need to know the demand and supply for items you are going to sell.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;If the item is a hot item, and you have many orders, there is a possibility that your company may not be able to fill your customer orders.&amp;nbsp; There&#39;s nothing worse then ordering something only to find out that it is out of stock.&amp;nbsp; So if you decide to dropship, check with your drop shipper and make sure the item is available.&amp;nbsp; It may not be possible some times to check with your dropshipper&amp;nbsp; so be prepared to deal in customer service in a customer friendly way if the item ordered is out of stock.&amp;nbsp; Most of the time dropship companies have an abundance of merchandise.&amp;nbsp; Sometimes however an item becomes very popular overnight.&amp;nbsp; When this happens the supply can not fill the demand.&amp;nbsp; Usually the wait for merchandise is not long but sometimes it is, especially if it is during a holiday time such as Christmas. So be prepared to deal with back orders and to communicate with your customers about the dropship concerns.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;For those business people who do not have storefront, drop shipping is an avenue for selling.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;When you decide to dropship, you do not have to worry about stocking a store. The drop shipper has a warehouse full of merchandise and that becomes your store.&amp;nbsp; Some drop shippers will allow you to come to the warehouse and look at the merchandise on display.&amp;nbsp; If you can afford to visit one of these dropship merchandise display centers, you can then pick and choose items that you think will dropship well and that will be popular among your potential customers.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Remember items that are breakable, can create many problems for you from your customers.&amp;nbsp; When an item is dropshipped, and a customer tells you that he received the item broken it becomes necessary for you to replace that item.&amp;nbsp; Some items dropship better than others.&amp;nbsp; So pick a few items to dropship at first, see how it goes and added on to your collection gradually.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/5637006364098036073/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/when-you-decide-to-dropship.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/5637006364098036073'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/5637006364098036073'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/when-you-decide-to-dropship.html' title='When you decide to dropship'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-1551685241414663984</id><published>2022-02-14T19:29:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.113-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>What is a Wholesale Distributor?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;The understanding of what it is to be a wholesale distributor will help you to a better understanding of drop shipping.&amp;nbsp; The sale of goods in quantity is usually for resale by a distributor to a retail merchant. A wholesale made by the manufacturer in a large scale without discrimination requires a distributor to make sales to the retailer in smaller quantities.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The idea of wholesale distributors has been a marketing tool for a very long time. Earlier companies like the Fuller Brush Company, Sears, Montgomery Wards and J.C. Penny&#39;s started the basis of wholesale distributors and especially the idea of drop shipping.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The idea of Wholesale Products is vastly growing on the internet and becoming one of the leading ways of owning your own business without having to have money, building, and product.&amp;nbsp; The reason being that your online store is normally manufacturers are more than glad to give you a cut on the profit in order to get their product recognized by the public and sold.&amp;nbsp; The idea being your virtual store can have a large inventory without buying one product and the merchandise delivered instantly without anyone from your company getting involved. The key to having a good wholesale business is to find a reputable affiliate program; most of all find a way to drive traffic and sales toward your virtual store.&amp;nbsp; Remember that most programs do include drop shipping as a means to get the product to the customer but you should make sure that shipping is either free or charged to the customer.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We have now discovered that the wholesale business is the easiest, fastest, and least expensive business to get started on the web.&amp;nbsp; Now you need to get your creative juices working and do some researching to find out what you want to do in the wholesale business. Remember that with little to no capitol the business that you are strictly looking for is where you are the stockless retailer and the manufacturer drop ships the goods to the client.&amp;nbsp; You also need a good affiliate program that will accept credit cards and papal.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Next, let me suggest that you check into eBay, as this is one of the best companies on line today for those who want to make sales.&amp;nbsp; It is not complicated to list merchandise to sell on eBay.

The reality about the growing number of individuals who plan to make trading online is that 90% fail. Success stories are far and few in between.&amp;nbsp; This is not due to lack of hard work or a good business plan but many balk under the adverse and challenging realities of the competitive world.&amp;nbsp; We believe the reason for this failure is lack of information. These business failed because they could not manage to locate genuine and legitimate wholesale and drop shipping companies or drop shippers supplying&amp;nbsp; the kind of niche goods that actually generate not only high number of sales but extremely high profits.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Aid and Trade provides a directory of legitimate drop shippers.

Normally, it entails renting a small storage place, which adds to the budget. Storing is not the only issue, developing product inventories, maintaining stock availability etc. The drop shipper helps you to get rid of all these issues so that you can concentrate on marketing and sales.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The drop shipper does the research for products provide you with a list and a catalogues of available items at trade prices. You can utilize this information and sell any of the product anyway you wish.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The drop shipper fills your order and helps with the tracking to make sure the customer is satisfied. The drop shipper does the packing of the product and the delivery you no longer have to package items or go to the post office.&amp;nbsp; The drop shipper holds the product for you so that is a saved expense.&amp;nbsp; The drop shipper does many of the jobs that would take up your time and your budget.

That is one of the nice things about using a drop shipper it helps you to maintain a good standard in business, which is vital in keeping the business.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Drop shipping works very easy as first you open an Internet Store, with a shopping cart and the ability to accept credit cards. Then you find a distributor who is willing to drop ship the product you want to sell. You will establish an account as a retailer with the distributor you choose. Then you will receive images and descriptions of the products you want to sell from the distributor, and post them on your internet Store. Customer surfs into your store loves your items and possibly buys $100 worth of your goods, you then take it from their credit card along with the shipping rate. At that point, you email the order to the distributor who in turns sends the product directly to your customer then he charges you the wholesale price of the product plus his shipping charge. Your customer is happy and tells a friend and then you get more orders.&amp;nbsp; The drop shipper is happy and fills all the orders you can send his way.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/8519663895285308402/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/the-drop-shipper-how-they-help-business.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/8519663895285308402'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/8519663895285308402'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/the-drop-shipper-how-they-help-business.html' title='The Drop Shipper how they help the business'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-3707008570986651829</id><published>2022-02-14T19:27:00.002-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.116-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>How to drop ship</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;Have you ever been driving down the road and seen a bunch of large warehouse looking buildings&amp;nbsp; Perhaps this is the industrial section of your community.&amp;nbsp; More than likely these buildings that you see are used by drop shippers and other companies.&amp;nbsp; These building are not opened to the general public for the most part.&amp;nbsp; They house wholesale merchandise that is ordered by retail businesses for retail sales.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;These buildings are scattered all over and they fill dropship orders.&amp;nbsp; The first thing you must do is to find a company that will drop ship for you.&amp;nbsp; Find out what the guidelines for the company are before you agree to do business with them.&amp;nbsp; Once you have decided which company you are going to use and the merchandise you plan to sell you are ready to pick the venue you plan to use to get customers.&amp;nbsp; Drop shipping is very easy and convenient.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Most businesses that use this method of delivery seem to be very pleased.

The US Post Office is prompt and uses great care in handling packages.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Shipping has become such a big business that the post office now provides the supplies you need, pick up and delivery as well as over night delivery. The post office tracking system is simple going on line, put in your receipt number, and find out the exact time and date of delivery.&amp;nbsp; You can also insure your product if it has a value that would be considered a loss.&amp;nbsp; You can also keep a postal machine in your office that you can use to calculate the postage and print the postage necessary. The United States Post Office is one of our better methods of shipping.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Shipping via Ups is also a great way to go especially if you happen to have larger packages or boxes.&amp;nbsp; Ups offers access quantum view, which is a method for you to keep up with your clients. You can maintain a database and track their deliveries etc.&amp;nbsp; Remember for those who sell to retail outlets a product that is repeatedly on a weekly or monthly basis Ups is an excellent way to go. You will get automatic pickup service and you can track delivery as well as shortages etc.&amp;nbsp; Ups will go to the manufacturer pick up the product for you and then deliver to your customer.&amp;nbsp; This is an excellent way for you to buy in quantity and ship.&amp;nbsp; Someone has to pay for the shipping and that is where you really have to watch out the cost. The cost can really eat into your profits.&amp;nbsp; You might be able to charge it to the client or at least split the cost 50/50 in any case this would help your bottom line.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Large products like furniture for instances is best shipped via a semi and one of the best company&#39;s with the best rates is Yellow Truck.&amp;nbsp; You can access the company on line and track your shipment the same way as you do with Ups and the United States Post Office.&amp;nbsp; All manner of shipping is important so that you can maintain a profitable business.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/265010315881581520/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/all-about-shipping.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/265010315881581520'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/265010315881581520'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/02/all-about-shipping.html' title='All about Shipping'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2779712075810201446.post-1968313622253196318</id><published>2022-02-14T19:21:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2022-02-14T19:39:15.113-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DropShipping"/><title type='text'>All about Drop Shippers</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;The small business has a problem when they first start their business with finding a reasonable priced storage place.

So, coming from the trenches of the real world of branding, we&#39;ve defined the term and given it a comprehensive meaning..&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A brand consists of eight basic building blocks:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Name&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Logo (brand icon)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Brand&#39;s Colors&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Slogan and Brand Messaging&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Sound of the Brand&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Overall Look and Feel = The Brand&#39;s Position&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- Packaging the Brand&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;- The Brand Experience&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;A Brand is the greater sum of its parts. It is always more than just the nuts and bolts, the pieces; great brands are always the result of the whole equaling more than the sum of its parts.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Branding is about making me, the consumer or buyer, more hip, more in the &quot;know,&quot; more cool than anybody else. We are a generation and a nation wanting to be special. We want to be richer, more beautiful, better dressed and more effortlessly gorgeous than any other generation that we know.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We want everything to mean more. We want everything to have meaning. That&#39;s why we flock to the reality shows. Why we love &quot;The Apprentice&quot; and &quot;American Idol&quot; and other top realistic shows. We crave authenticity in this age of fabrication and falsehood. We &quot;just want to be real.&quot;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We want to be able to trust what we buy and whom we buy from. That&#39;s why Coke is still the number one brand in the world. The more we know about a brand, the more we trust it. The more we trust it, the more we buy it and continue to experience it. The more we experience it, the more loyal we become.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Loyalty is the currency that cannot be traded for dollars.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/feeds/6197321597229356542/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/01/the-loyalty-factor.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/6197321597229356542'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='https://www.blogger.com/feeds/2779712075810201446/posts/default/6197321597229356542'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://dropshippersplus.blogspot.com/2022/01/the-loyalty-factor.html' title='The Loyalty Factor'/><author><name>Akhand Trader</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18105230070063905775</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
