    Si vienes aquí desde Latinoamérica, te lo resumo así nomas:
    Dropshipping no está mal, pero ten en cuenta estas desventajas:
    - Vas a tener márgenes magros de beneficio (compras por unidad a un precio más alto, compites con los precios de amazon con precios más bajos)
    - Hay mucha competencia (debido a que cualquiera puede empezar con poco dinero)
    - No puedes testear la calidad del productos (sólo probarlo con alguna muestra)
    - Dependes completamente de tu proveedor (en el caso de que remueva el producto de su stock deberás hacer un reintegro)
    - Vas a lidiar con tiempos de envío extensos hasta la entrega del producto.

    El Dropshipping en realidad se trata de cómo agregar valor al producto.

    Really well explained thanks. I'm about to launch my POD website but looking to get into drop shipping this summer from the UK. I've seen some ads/courses pop up on here in the last few months to do drop shipping but from the UK so going to look into that instead of from China.

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No problem and hope it was helpful. I've seen the same ads but haven't looked into it in too much detail but I wouldn't be surprised if the price per product wasn't higher for UK based suppliers due to the higher overheads here in the UK. I personally think POD is better than dropshipping as you are providing unique designs on the products, rather than generic stuff that you do with dropshipping.

    Just recently discovered your channel. I know that a common marketing strategy for e-commerce stores is to have content creators market and endorse products, and I wanted to reach out to you in particular, to see if you would be open to having a conversation. Thanks for your time and please get back to me.

      I don't but I will give some advice: 1) Reach out to the directly via email rather than TH-cam comments 2) Make sure to say who your company is as I have no idea what you do or what you are trying to sell.

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  ปีที่แล้ว

      I can't do that as I don't do dropshipping but my advice would be to break it down into component parts rather than looking for 1 video to tell you everything, so look for:
      • A video on sourcing products
      • A video on how to build a site with your chosen platform (shopify, woocommerce etc)
      • A video on how to market your store, most likely with Facebook ads

    • @EcommerceGold

      You can buy the product before you sell it and I recommend that you do but you can't keep checking the quality unless you order the product on a regular basis

    What if your supplier has a longer shipping time? Is it better to just have the inventory ?

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Generally, yes as you want the time between the customer placing the order and receiving it to be a short as possible

    Dropshopping is an ecommerce business. Because it still gets us money by using the internet. It just doesnt provide as much profit as it would if we ordered wholesale in bulk and fullfilled the orders ourselves. If you dont believe me just ask the Mo state revenue office. They will tell you that a dropshipping business is an ecommerce retail business. I know, i had to get my tax permit for retail to legally sell in my state.

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don't say it isn't an ecommerce business, I'm simply explaining the difference between dropshipping and traditional ecommerce.
      But just to be clear, because something gets you money online doesn't mean it's ecommerce.

    But why wont your supplier directly went after your customer? I always wonder why this kind of business model work.

    • @SenbonTv
      @SenbonTv 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Also, that's mean you will always be slower against competitor who actually keep inventory on their own storage.

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depending on how you have it set up, the supplier might not have access to the customers email address, just the mailing address. A lot of suppliers also don't want to deal direct with the end customer as they can be very problematic.

    Does anyone know if you can do drop-shipping on eBay? Thanks in advance.

    • @EcommerceGold
      @EcommerceGold  ปีที่แล้ว

      You can but Ebay fees can really eat into your profits, which will probably be tight on dropshipped products and Ebay doesn't like slow delivery times, just something to think about.
