In the world of e-commerce, dropshipping is now a common thing, and a lot of people are flocking to this method, because it allows you to make a tremendous amount of money without emptying your bank account.
To start a business in the past, one would have to get a loan from the bank, but now, dropshipping has changed all that.
With a little amount of cash, you can setup an online store and start selling premium products to thousands of people all over the world.
So how can you successfully start the dropshipping business?
Well… a few tips below should help set you on the right path.
1. Niche Research: This is almost a cliche term in internet marketing, but don’t be deceived, although it may sound cliche, it is extremely important in
laying the foundation for your success in dropshipping.
Finding a niche is the first thing to do in dropshipping. You cannot skip this phase. You need to research your
niche carefully and ensure you are picking one that has big demands, with plenty of traffic and customers that you can sell to.
You don’t want to have products that nobody wants to buy. So, researching your niche before jumping in to sell is crucial to the success of dropshipping.
2. Product Suppliers: This is the next step after making your research on the niche you want to delve into. Finding suppliers for your products can be tricky, as there are many scammers with substandard products or services out there.
As with niche research, you must also be meticulous in your research for product suppliers. Ensure you are getting genuine wholesale products!
3. Selecting your product(s): After picking a supplier, you must select the product to sell, and this will be chosen based on the niche you are working with.
Yes! You must be systematic in your approach. Now, you can decide to sell only one type of product, or you can choose to sell multiple products within the niche.
Both of these methods have their merits. Dropshipping only one product makes marketing straightforward and simple; your SEO marketing, product description, etc. would be easier to fashion.
On the other hand, dropshipping different products offer the added advantage of making more sales, by bundling, cross-selling, upselling, etc.
It is a matter of preference, so experiment and see what works for you!
4. The Dropshipping Avenue: Finally, you should select the avenue for your dropshipping business.There are a ton of websites offering dropshipping services including eBay, eBid or uBid, Bonanza, and Amazon.
So you have a wide range of choices to make. However, you must note that big names in the e-commerce business world like Amazon and eBay have higher dropshipping fees when compared to other sites, but they also
offer the added advantage of exposure and more customer traffic.

Also I believe it's possible to find products with better profit margins on Amazon. also remember you can still bundle it!
I think having an amazon dropship business could be helpful for a lot of ppl? but shopify is a way to go to start it. Amazon still better for FBA!
