For all of the thousands of individuals we have mentored when it comes to setting up a home business, the one question that gets asked the most is – "What is the fastest way for me to make money online?"  We usually follow this up with, there is no true get rich quick opportunities out there, unless you are one of the lucky ones to hit the lottery.  A true legitimate business opportunity takes time, hard work, money and dedication to make it successful.  This is no different when it comes to a legitimate dropshipping opportunity.  eBay is a huge dropshipping opportunity that all who own drosphipping businesses need to be taking advantage of.

Your drop shipper is taking a lot of responsibility off your hands, but the fact is, you can never fully trust anyone other than yourself to do the job properly. For that reason, a large part of successfully using a drop shipper involves good management skills.

There are a lot of very good dropshippers on the Internet, but there are also a lot of scammers! Just as with any other source that you find online, you need to take precautions:

• Do they have any ‘extra’ fees? Genuine dropshippers should only charge you for the items you sell. Avoid companies that require a monthly subscription fee or something similar.
• Check the age of the site. Online dropshippers and wholesalers go out of business all the time either (a) because it’s a hard business to be successful in, or (b) because they are fraudulent. For these reasons, be very wary of dealing with new sites.
• Customer service is very important – especially in moments of crisis! – but sadly it is all too often neglected. Sending a test email will tell you a lot about the quality of service you and your customers are likely to receive from the company.
• Ask about warranties, guarantees, shipping policies and return policies. Everyone gets returns at some point so you need to make sure that you won’t have to foot the bill. Be sure to get in writing and signed!

Wholesale dropshippers are a very popular form of sourcing product because they allow you to pay only for the items that you sell.

It works like this: You find a dropshipper and set up an account. Different dropshippers have different setups but usually you can choose to credit your account, or, you can simply leave it empty and pay for each item as you sell it. Once you’ve created an account, all you need to do is grab the dropshipper’s provided photos and product descriptions for the items you wish to sell and list them on eBay or your website.

I get this question a lot so I think it is worth some time spent.

The easy answer (or quick answer) to this question is, YES, it is possible to find brand name drop shippers, and we have several brand name suppliers included on The Shippers database.  However; sometimes their are some product lines, and brand names that do not allow Internet businesses to start up a drop ship business and sell their products.

I got emailed a question about the content a supplier – dropshipper gives you, and how you should go about using it.  I thought I had been hitting this subject hard lately with a few of my posts, but I feel it’s a good time to talk about it once again.  Here is the question that was emailed to me:

I heard it’s not a good idea to copy exactly what the supplier says. why not? what should I write? (more…)

The popularity of eBay has inspired many people to start a business. And for those entrepreneurs who don’t want to invest in a ton of inventory but still want to set up shop, dropshipping is a logical solution.

Starting your own business can be an expensive and a chancy business. Not everyone can afford to lay out large amounts of cash getting started in business or are willing to gamble large amounts of cash up front. An attractive alternative to buying up and storing stock for sale is to investigate drop shipping.
Simply put, you register with a distributor who will usually provide you with images and sale merchandise. You market and sell the product. Once it is ordered by your customer, you contact the drop shipper who will package and post the item. You pay the wholesale invoice to the drop shipper and the difference (the Profit) goes into your pocket. The profit is less than if you are buying inventory but you take away hassles or storing, holding large quantities of stock and post and handling.

The most important thing I can do if you are struggling with finding suppliers, is to encourage you to not give up.  If you have not looked into our main product over on the main site, then my first advice would be to gain access to our premium product sourcing membership.  
 
Here are some ideas I wanted to share with you that may help you find the dropshippers you are looking for if you are not wanting to gain access to The Shipper.

Find out the manufacturers name, and go online to Google and find contact information such as email, phone number, address.  Do anything you can to get a hold of them and ask them to give you a list of their distributors, or dropshipper companies.

What is an answering service anyway?

Lets say its just your running the business solo (not unlike most Internet business owners) – How would you like to have a sales team, customer service team, a team to man the phones 24-7, and pretty much the appearance of a whole team that does everything? How does that sound? Oh yea, and you still can go at your business solo, and do not have to hire employees. You can accomplish this with a business answering service, and that is exactly what I am talking about.
