Like anything else worth having, starting a dropshipping business isn’t easy, and it comes with challenges.
But first, let's start with the positives:
Dropshipping gives you the opportunity to start an eCommerce business with very little upfront costs, and a low barrier to entry.
- You don’t worry about inventory and shipping
- No warehousing costs
- Products are ready to ship
- You can work from anywhere, at any time
But we want you to go into dropshipping with a full visual of the landscape. So here’s the downside of dropshipping.
And now the challenges:
- Low-profit margins (initially)
- There's a lot of competition
- You have very little control over the supply chain
- It can be difficult to build a brand
But don’t fret, nothing worth having is ever easy, so we’ve dedicated this course to help you build a dropshipping business that has a competitive advantage and leaves your competitors in the dust.
