Retailers from online auction sites can take advantage of this line of business.
Instead of coming up with your own product, you can opt to rely on the wholesale providers to give you the products you can sell. This gets you off the hassle of making the products yourself. If you are in the online auction sites line, then you can just get in touch with a wholesaler, find out what products you can sell online and find out which ones can actually be cost-effective to market and would actually yield great margins. Once identified, all you need to do is post and follow-through a couple of leads. You may want to check with the online auction website itself first if they have policies for such just to be at the safe side of things.
Small Businesses can take advantage of this great opportunity, too.
If you intend to go solo, then by all means go ahead. Small businesses can turn their business proposition from an end-to-end manufacturing to retailing business into a highly specialized business. You may opt to stick with marketing the product and look for a supplier instead. This is more cost-effective for both parties and is actually going to be more efficient as well. The retailers do not need to worry about the inventory anymore as they do not have to literally stockpile products just so their stores can start running. The inventories will stay an issue for the wholesalers and the retailer’s role will be concentrated purely on marketing the product.
This is an amazing opportunity for non-performing businesses to transform their balance sheets into healthy green ones.
Small companies would usually come-up with great products but are unable to sustain the competition because of the scale and capital of their competitors. If this is the case with your business, then entering into this process as wholesaler will sure be a good chance for you to finally get things running at a high level for your company.
Start signing up for drop shipping conventions, websites, groups, and meet-ups to introduce your company to the retailers and to effectively build your network as well. This will not only be an opportunity for your company to grow and earn more; it will also be an opportunity for you to mature as a business person with a highly redundant corporate links that may work to your advantage in the long run.
