What is dropshipping?
Dropshipping is a business model
that allows entrepreneurs to start
an online business and sell
products to their buyers without
ever actually stocking the items
themselves. Instead, when a
dropshipping store sells a
product, it purchases the item
from a third party and has it
shipped directly to the customer.
Advantages of Dropshipping
Less capital is required.
Probably the biggest
advantage to dropshipping is
that it’s possible to launch an
ecommerce store without
having to invest thousands of
pesos in inventory up front.
Traditionally, retailers have
had to tie up huge amounts of
capital purchasing inventory.
You don’t have to purchase a product unless you’ve already
made the sale and have been paid by the customer.
