Finding a Drop Shipper
Introduction
A successful business owner is always on the lookout for great product ideas and resources so that they are prepared for the constantly changing business world. One of the fundamentals of running any retail business is learning how to find products and suppliers of those products. When doing business online, dropshipping is an effective and relatively simple way to source products. This article will discuss what a dropshipper is and how dropshipping works, the pros and cons of using a dropshipper, and resources for finding and selecting a dropshipper or product source.
Discussion
A dropshipper is a wholesale supplier who sends products directly from their warehouse to your Internet customer for you, one product at a time. They pack and ship the products for you. You pay a wholesale price, and then charge your customer a retail price for the product. Some companies use "Blind" dropshipping - this means the dropshipper puts your label on the package, so that your customer believes the package comes directly from you. This is preferable, but certainly not necessary.
Pros / Cons of using a Dropshipper
| Inventory | Pro You don't maintain any inventory, cutting costs on storage, packing supplies, etc… Con Because you don't have the product sitting on your shelf, you may not always know the current availability, exact features, specifications, etc. for that product. |
| Shipping | Pro You don't require packing or shipping supplies, printing labels, making trips to the post office, etc… Con You don't have absolute control over when the product will be shipped. |
| Returns | Pro When a return is sent back to the dropshipper, all you need to do is credit your customer for the return Con You don't have immediate access to the returned product, or you may not know when the returned product was received, and therefore may notknow when to credit your customer. |
Application
Resources for finding and selecting a Dropshipper or Product Source
Finding a dropshipper can be a fairly time-consuming process. However, using some of the information provided in this tutorial, you should be able to find a dropshipper or product source relatively quickly:
Making Contact
When you contact the company, tell them your name, your company name and where you found their information. Explain that you are interested in selling their product(s) on your website, and ask what information they need from you to get started.
Other questions to ask
Once you have found a profitable supplier, there are other questions you should ask before deciding to go with them. Some examples are shown in the following section:
| Dropshipping | Is dropshipping available? If so, is Blind Dropshipping an option? |
| Product Information | Do they have their product list in a data spreadsheet? Do they provide you with web ready product photos? |
| Payment Terms | How do you get billed, how do you pay them, and how often do you pay? |
| Pricing Rules | Are there minimum advertised prices? Are there certain times when you can lower prices? |
| Shipping Costs / Policies | What courier is used? Is insurance available? What delivery options are available? |
| Shipping Time | How long from the time you place an order with the dropshipper until the time it's shipped? |
| Returns | What are the return policies? Are returns sent to supplier or you? Are there any restocking fees? |
Conclusion
Keep in mind that it's a good idea to have a backup supplier. Try to always have another supplier available, so that if something happens to your primary supplier, you'll be able to source your product elsewhere.
This process will become easier as your business grows. As you get more experience, you will be able to negotiate better opportunities and situations. This will occur partly because you will have an online "track record" for potential suppliers to see and partly because you will become more confident. A company that may not have been willing to dropship for you initially might change their mind once you have proven yourself. Don't give up on any great product ideas. Just keep looking for the right supplier and work on other ideas and sites until one comes through for you.
