This is what most new comer don't know about drop shipping. They think that once they set up the website people will be coming directly to the store to buy things without doing any form of marketing.

I don't really know how it works but I do have some friends who are into it and they are making money from it. Drop shipping is simply having an online store just like Amazon, jumia and the likes.

I have heard a couple people saying dropshiping is the current money generating machine.
I have limited understanding of how dropshiping works, but I'll to venture into local dropshiping for the start.

it will be very good to acquire a basic knowledge about the drop shipping before you can venture into it unless you are ready to fail woefully.

This is actually the first time I am hearing of something like local dropshipping. The one I can vouch for it's the online dropshipping most people are into. It's really profitable.

I know a lot of people who saw themselves through school using dropshipping as an avenue to generate good income.

Local drop shipping is not as expensive as the national or international dropshipping since the destination is one of the key factor.

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

I haven't really seen anyone that is into the Business of local dropshipping because I even think that the only kind of dropshipping business that is available is international.

Local drop shipping should be what we call delivery service but with the added bonus of you being the middle man in the business and getting a commission for it.

you are a beginner, you should start with Shopify platform, they have all you need to begin, especially the templates of creating your store.Then you will need to do some adset which you can use the different social media platforms.

You might need the meant to really take it real slow in deciding how to go about running a local droppshiping business. You should look at all th angles and options available on the subject before going into it

I don't have a good understanding about drop shipping and I don't really know how they work. I just have to research more about drop shipping to understand if it is easier for people to make money online with it.

 

[Kvngsammy]

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?

If you want to dropship locally, I'll suggest about $50 just for advertising though there are other ways by which you can get customers. The sweet thing about dropshipping is that you don't get to stock the products yourself. All you do is connect the buyer to the seller and you add your own commission

Drop shipping is a long term investment for investors. Although this drop shipping hasn't really gained popularity because I don't even know the real concept of it but I will utilize this thread.

 

[Good-Person]

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.

I think you must also calculate the shipment and delivery cost of the products whether or not you import products or buy products locally. Petrol prices have surged a lot where I live and this has also led to an increase in transportation costs a lot.

 

[Abigael]

I have also only heard about dropshipping but I have never tried it. It is really great for you to start with local dropshipping. That way, you can train yourself so that soon, you can expand to dropshipping even outside your country.

 

[btaliat]

Most people especially girls engage in this a lot. You only need to have some suppliers readily available and display your desired goods on your social media and then get them delivered the moment you get some customers that need them.

Dropshipping locally is also profitable. It only allows you to advertise things that you don't have in stock, and when a buyer requests one, you just instruct the manufacturer to bring it to your store.

I know a friend who is selling used European laptops with uses of local dropshipping. His process is very simple, he simply sign up with the classified adverts website and started posting the picture of the laptops there with his contact details. Those who are interested in those laptops contact him and make purchase.

Nice one, a lot of people are engaging in this business but it may not really be profitable to them because of how they are choosing to do the business.. what I have understand is that all-business are really profitable but the way we handle the business smartly will determine how successful we will be.
