NATURE'S WONDERLAND DROPSHIP FOR YOU!

Drop shipping is a no-inventory investment, low-risk way to make money selling products - online or off. It has been profitably used by many large, successful companies, such as Amazon.com and American Express, to name just a couple. The advantages it offers are FABULOUS for small businesses!

YOUR OWN BUSINESS WITH NO CAPITAL OUTLAY - WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR?

Drop shipping is a unique marketing method that offers you powerful benefits - some of which are as follows:

• There is no need to invest in, handle, store, protect, maintain, pack, or ship product inventory.
  

• You receive cash payment from your customers in advance -- before paying for any products.
  

• Problems caused by being over- or under-stocked with inventory are eliminated.
  

• No-inventory investment means you can start and operate on limited capital.
  

• The marketability of products can be tested for very little risk and expense.
  

• A drop ship operation can be operated from a very small space.

There are two kinds of retailer. There is the retailer who stocks products, and there is the stockless retailer. Drop Shipping means that you become a stockless retailer.

Retailers who stock products
Let's surmise that you want to open a retail store on the Internet - or maybe you are wanting to act as a Retailer who sells directly to clients at private gatherings. Firstly, you have to have products to sell.

To stock products for your store, you will have to either rent space, or at least clean out your garage or spare room. You will also need to pay for a shipping account with a Courier and the Post Office, unless you want to be hindered by paying exorbitant shipping costs. BUT - Worst of all, you will have to pay for all of your products up front!!

This gets down to the nitty gritty - Money!! More than likely - Lots of it!! For example, if you want to sell a particular product, firstly you have to find the source of the product out there in the big wide world, but then comes the hardship - you must open an account with the company and buy minimum quantities of their products .... and that can often be quite a substantial figure. Most companies will be happy to set you up as a retailer. Have a chat with some of them. You can have a great conversation about setting up an account, placing orders, and all the other wonderful things business people discuss with each other when beginning a relationship. Then comes the crunch - "By the way, your minimum first order must be at least $500.00." - or often quite a lot more. And that's only one range of products.

Being a retailer and stocking products costs money, that's the bottom line! No matter what you sell, if you carry stock, you pay first, and then hope to goodness that you sell later. If you don't sell the products you buy in a relatively short period of time, you will then need to think about discounting them, because turnover is the name of the game when it comes to retail. Dead stock sitting on your shelf just doesn't allow you to go out and buy more ... and your clients are always expecting more - the newest range and the best colours, etc etc etc!!

There's a much better way ----------------
