Understanding Wholesale Drop Shippers
Introduction
A common question in the world of e-commerce is why wholesalers choose to drop ship instead of selling directly to consumers. Grasping the reasons behind this choice is crucial to understanding the drop shipping business model.
What Do Wholesalers Do?
Wholesalers typically purchase products in bulk from manufacturers with the intention of selling these products in large quantities to retailers. Often, these sales are on a massive scale?"think truckloads of products. Wholesalers focus on securing substantial deals with a few key accounts, aiming for profit through volume.
However, this large-scale approach can overlook smaller opportunities. Numerous online and small retailers cannot afford to buy in such large quantities. Drop shipping offers a solution. In this model, when a customer places an order with a retailer, the retailer forwards the shipping details to the wholesaler. The wholesaler then ships the product?"sometimes just one item?"directly to the customer, often using a generic return address, making it look like the retailer sent it.
Why Do Wholesalers Choose Drop Shipping?
Not all wholesalers opt to drop ship, as many prefer managing large orders. However, for those who do, there are significant advantages. Drop shipping can lead to increased business and provides a competitive edge. Many online retailers favor drop shipping and prefer wholesalers who offer this service.
Some might wonder why these wholesalers don't market directly to consumers to maximize profits. The reason is simple: wholesalers generally lack expertise in retail marketing and the capacity to handle customer service.
Finding a Drop Ship Wholesaler
