Now that you know what qualities are essential to be a good entrepreneur and bring your business to a profitable destiny, know that some projects are more easily achieved than others without having to spend a large sum of money.
Dropshipping
Dropshipping is an online business and an alternative to traditional commerce. It is an Internet sales model that involves three different actors: the supplier, the reseller (ie you) and the customers.
In this sales business, the supplier owns the products and keeps them in stock. The reseller, on the other hand, presents the articles of its suppliers online, on its website.
When the customer arrives at the reseller’s online store and finds a product he likes, he makes the purchase. The reseller then receives an order notification. However, it is not he who holds the stock of products.
He therefore places this same order with his supplier, while taking a commercial margin in the process.
Finally, the supplier ships the product directly to the customer’s home. The logistics service is led by the supplier.
