Increase Profits on eBay by using Drop Shippers




By Jason Cooper

You might already be one of the many eBay business owners earning a living online with eBay. While most people are working that nine to five job everyday, you're living the dream of self employment and running your own business.

But, if the long hours and hard work just isn't adding up to the profits you dreamed of, you may want to consider using drop shippers to increase your profits.

Drop shipping is a great way to offer many different products to your customers without having to keep an inventory of products in your garage.

Basically, you sell a product for a company or warehouse using online auctions or your own website. Once a sale is completed you pass the order information and money owed for the product to the drop shipper. They process the order, package and ship the product to your customer using your company information on the logo.

The customer never knows that the item was drop shipped, and you get to keep the difference between your cost and the price you charge the customer.

Drop shipping and eBay can work hand in hand. The high traffic rate of eBay makes it a great place to offer drop shipped products. Without a drop shipper, an eBay business owner would have to stock, pack and ship the items on their own. Additionally, the task of product research and purchasing a stock pile of products.

Drop shippers take care of everything except actually selling the product. This frees you up for creating your auctions and finding more products to sell using your eBay store.

Also, using a drop shipper creates almost no financial risk on your part because you don't need to invest a lot of money on something you're not sure about. You have no inventory and pay the drop shippers only after you have an order and the buyer has paid you!

A few drop shippers do ask members to pay a small fee for selling their products. This is to keep the products cheap and to make sure that members are getting a really good deal.

If you want to guarantee a profit, just set a minimum bid amount. There is really no downside.

With drop shipping, anyone has the chance to make great profits using eBay auctions, and at the same time not having to worry about getting the product to the customer. Since your customers never know that you're using drop shipping, you gain credibility and look very professional in the process.
