Local dropshipping also pays. It only allows you to advertise products you don't have in stock and any time your customers ask for it you tell the manufacturer to send it to your store that's all

Cool, but what's the minimum amount needed for a start, and what are the risks involved?
Do I need a physical store to start dropshiping?

Dropshippng is very profitable if you know how to do it well. It is also very easy to start. Set up a website using Namecheap domain host as it is very easy to integrate shopify with it. You could get your goods at very cheap prices straight from the factory through Chinese websites like 1688.com by contacting Chinese agents. It is advisable that you go for fashionable and women related products because they sell very well and are easy to advertise on online and offline.

I understand that dropshipping is a small online local store business. You should choose a good wholesaler who will give you good prices and he will take care of stocking and shipping to customers who request it, so it will not be necessary for you to receive or touch the products. In other words, you are the intermediary of the purchase and sale.

Dropshipping is a very lucrative online business that anyone can do at the moment due to the huge demand for online shopping occasioned by the onset of the coronavirus pandemic that is ravaging the world in a way never felt before.

Local dropshipping also pays if you are well grounded on how the local markets operates. It is good investment especially if your products standout among other. With the current international markets lockdown, you will surely make your money.

I don't have knowledge about dropshiping in terms of business or as a means of generating money or income to participant but u will wish to have someone share with me much about the dropshiping business if he is much familiar with.

I personally don't know much about dropshipping but I guess I could start with the local dropshipping and learn from there

 

[GIFTMICHAEL]

I don't think, such kind of dropshipping business will yield money, if you do it locally by buying products locally and reselling it online. The best is negotiating for lower products, and reselling them to make good profits.

 

[Sincerem]

I prefer buying products from the destination that hits the price that will fetch me reasonable profit when i resell them here in my country.

My understanding of local dropshipping is in selling products of a supplier who is near your area. The preferred customers are also in the same vicinity. The purpose is the cost of delivery. Of course, the nearer the delivery destination, the lesser expense. This local dropshipping is particularly good for fresh items like fruits and vegetables.

create a Facebook page, promote it to your local citizens, and start selling your products for them.

Very simple and precise advice you have give n him there. To do dropshiping on a local scale or level, you have to be able to reach your audience locally via such platforms like facebook ads

Well , in reply to your question in the above post concerning starting a dropshipping business, well i am of the opinion that dropshipping is ineed a very profitable venture and a very good long term project for business owners

 

[Trexxxy]

Well, I think it depends on your local and how well you can utilise the market. However, dropshipping is a very saturated market but that shouldn't stop you from making a profit from the business.

 

[Setho]

You can make a lot of money from drop shipping even in your locality if you get things right. You should always seek a quality product in the market, brand it swiftly and employ good marketing styles.d

Yes, dropshipping is money generating machine. But it is not easy to generate money through dropshipping. You might easily create a dropshipping store for less than $500, but you might have to spend $500 or even $1000 to generate the first sale.
