Absolutely drop shipping is the best way to get into a business that’s almost hands-off. We started our experience with getting items to us and then having to personally ship it. The benefit? We could include our own personalized letters etc but it took up all of our time.

Now it’s a matter of spending an hour or so to place the orders, answer emails and collect money. Drop shipping is definitely the way to start off and keep your house clear of product.

Sarah, I am very interested. I had thought about drop shipping before this comp, but was uncertain bout going it alone – sight unseen type of thing. What is the best way to work with you?

Sorry Peter, I didn’t include my website. It’s available for shipping to Canadian and American addresses and it’s http://www.ItsRainingGifts.com.

I get traffic through a previously established list, affiliates, newsletters, refer a friend options, etc. The only trouble I have is keeping up with the thousands of products we have available.

The best way to figure out what you’re getting into is either finding a representative for that company or ordering a small amount of items for yourself. That way you can see for yourself what the product quality is, what their customer service is like and the time it takes for delivery.

I’ve dealt with two entirely different drop shipping companies and had horrible experience with one but am having tremendous experience with the other.

I guess Wholesale Drop Shipping would have to be easier and less expensive than you having to have products in storage, and either way the customer is the one paying for shipping, so it looks to me to be a win win situation.
Finding a reliable merchant would be the first thing to do before marketing any products
