Also, you can use a third-party site like Amazon or eBay to sell things without having to keep inventory. You make use of their marketing platform.

DROPSHIPPING

Dropshipping is a term that refers to
The primary concept behind an online drop shipping business is that you, as a small business owner, don’t have to have a huge inventory of products (or any inventory at all) or handle any deliveries to your clients. That avoids the financial cost and danger of stocking a warehouse with items you may or may not sell, as well as the difficulty of shipping orders across the county or around the world. In fact, you don’t even need to make or store any things. To discover clients and earn sales, all you have to do is concentrate on marketing and promotion. The rest is taken care of by others after the sale is finalized. The only fee you will incur is the cost of marketing and advertising to gain a new customer.

Following that, you’ll deal with a drop shipping firm. The following is how it works:

You sell things on your website or through a marketplace like Amazon, eBay, or Etsy.
When a customer buys anything from you, you buy it from a third-party company (a drop shipper, usually a manufacturer or wholesaler) at a reduced price. This process is as simple as forwarding your customer’s order, which can be done fully automatically. (Keep in mind that you don’t have to worry about buying goods because the sale has already been made.)

The merchandise is subsequently delivered to the customer via your drop shipper.
Isn’t that simple? Drop shipping allows you to provide a wide choice of products while keeping your business’s running costs to a minimum.

As you can see, you have no risk because you don’t even buy the product (at cost) until the transaction is completed!

However, every business has some risk attached, along with its advantages and disadvantages. Some few disadvantages of dropshipping include:

1.You can be held responsible for your drop shipper’s errors.

2.The marketplace is quite competitive.

3.To make a significant profit, you must sell a large number of items.
