Drop Shipping

What is it & why has it become so popular?

E. V. Milne – Junior Contributor

The modern age comes with modernized versions of old things such as fashion, technology and more – but with it also comes new things, and this is one of them. Drop shipping is an intelligent way of making money where you take a seller’s product and resell it for a higher price while also adding something on – like packaging – to add to the price. Around the world, this business is making people millions of dollars a year. But the best bit about this business is its simplicity. 

Due to its on-demand selling criteria, many people have not only one, but up to five different drop shipping businesses. But you may be thinking – isn’t this a little unethical? And in some respects, yes, but if you are making it better in a small way, many people would think that it is a fair deal. 

Over the next few years, this modern-age business model is going to increase in popularity and I believe in ten years everyone around the globe will know what it is.

 But how does someone even begin to make a drop shipping business? Well, it truly is quite simple, all you need is a selected few products and, from that, if your advertise it better than the company that makes it and you have a unique twist to it, unlike anything the original buyer or any other drop shipper can do, then your drop shipping business will most likely succeed. This business is about difference because if your product and marketing are better and at a higher price people will want to buy from you rather than a small business on Esty. I believe even as a teen you could be doing this and making more cash than your friend that has a 5-hour job on the weekend.
