A No Inventory Cost Business for Successful Entrepreneurs

To sell something, a merchant has to have the goods with him. This is particularly seen among stores and most dealers. Merchants have to stock on items before they can sell.

However, today a new form of dealership exist. Selling without any inventory at hand! Wow! That means a lot of savings! No stockroom or warehouse to rent, no warehouse personnel expense, no large capital needed to buy stock of goods, no worry for a slow selling item! No kidding. This is actually happening now at this time of writing and many businesses are now actively engaged in this form of business strategy. It is called Blind Dropshipping.

Blind dropshipping works in a very simple way. A merchant or the retailer finds a manufacturer, importer or a wholesaler that accepts blind dropshipping. The merchant simply makes the necessary arrangements with the dropshipper (in this case the manufacturer, importer, or wholesaler) to sell the goods in retail but the merchant pays each order at a wholesale rate.

Whenever the merchant takes an order from a client, the merchant then buys the product from the dropshipper, who in turn ships the goods to the merchant's client. With blind dropshipping, the dropshipper does not print their own return address but instead prints the return address of the merchant on the package. Thus the buyer is made to understand that the item comes from the merchant.

In essense, the merchant is also able to concentrate only in promoting his business, getting orders and receiving the payments. The merchant is not directly involved in packaging the goods nor in making the shipment transactions.

Blind dropshipping is now becoming popular among mail-order and internet businesses. However, there are also many fraudulent entities that claim to be dropshippers. This is especially true when searching for dropshippers over in the internet. These fraudulent companies are a big headache to many merchants.

Imagine if you are the victim, how could you grow your business? Searching for the right and honest dropshippers is one of the biggest issues among online businesses. Fortunately, a company that helps online merchants resolve this issue also exist. This company is known by its site as www.worldwidebrands.com. What it does is screen for honest dropshippers and lists them to their subscribers. Thus, if you are still searching for goods to sell and you are still searching for the right dropship companies, you simply have to subscribe to www.worldwidebrands.com.

While blind dropshipping is new to many entrepreneurs, it is fast creeping into the business world in the US and could possibly attract businesses in other countries soon.
