FAQ Stelvel Eood
What is dropshipping?
Dropshipping is an e-commerce business model in which the seller does not keep the goods in stock, but instead passes on his customers’ orders and information about where the goods should be delivered to the supplier (either the manufacturer or the wholesaler/distributor).
How does dropshipping work?
When an online store owner receives an order from a customer, he simply contacts the supplier, who delivers the goods directly to the customer on his behalf. The goods are in the supplier’s warehouse. The supplier packs the goods and ships them to the customers.
What are the benefits of dropshipping?
Dropshipping allows entrepreneurs to start an online business with very little initial investment and minimal risk. It can be used to test business ideas, try new niches and markets.
Does a regular store need dropshipping?
For offline stores, combining online sales and retail trade is becoming a common and effective marketing solution.
Does dropshipping have disadvantages?
Delays in product delivery and quality control issues are the underlying problems of this business model. The dropshipper relies on his suppliers, who should ideally ship quality goods, on time and without delay.

What goods can I sell to a dropshipper?

How do customers know that their orders are being shipped by a supplier, not a vendor?
Customers won’t know that their orders are being shipped directly from the vendor unless you tell them or somehow include the vendor information on your website or add the vendor information to the invoice.
What kind of profit margin can I expect from dropshipping?
The profit margin on dropshipping averages 15-20% of the selling price of each item.
