WHAT IS DROPSHIPPING IN INDIA

It is a money-making strategy in which we are behaving as a middleman. We are fulfilling customers’ orders directly through the supplier. let’s assume a product cost is $10 at some website or online store. Now you make your own website or page to build up your own online store and you put the same product on your online store for the cost of $50. Now if the customer buys that product from your store, you will get a $40 profit without any investment.

Since being a middleman, we must highlight the product which we are dropshipping india through advertisement or marketing. Customers will place the order on our website, and we will buy the product at wholesale price through the seller, and the supplier with directly shipped the product to the customer. This is called drop shipping. It is a very simple strategy to make money and start your own business without investing your money.

HOW CAN WE MAKE A CUSTOMER BUY FROM YOUR STORE?
