![How to Make Money With an Online Dropshipping Business](https://leelinesourcing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/How-to-Make-Money-With-an-Online-Dropshipping-Business-1024x624.png)
Is selling online worth it?
Definitely! It is a worthy option. Both online buying and selling trends are growing quite fast.
The advancement of technology and resources has given us more resources. Tough schedule and busy routines are forcing people to adopt online buying.
Moreover, the new era of mCommerce has started. Now you do not need a computer only for buying. Smartphones have changed the world. Everything is at the touch of the screen far from you. People are buying while traveling, in office, at night, etc.
This has changed the perspective of buying. That is why many retail shops in the market are also providing online delivery services. The smart-ones know the importance and are jumping on the bandwagon.
Online selling is one of the reasons behind the decline of local retail business in the past few years. 23% of people around the globe have used online buying at least once.
The numbers will grow. After the full-fledged 5G network around the globe, more than 70% of people will be part of this network.
Why Sell Products Online
Selling online is quite simple as compared to conventional methods. It also adds to the conventional trading. There are many reasons to sell online as:
1. More audience
More than 5 BILLION USE smartphones or laptops. And it is the BEST time I have targeted ONLINE customers.
In online selling, you have a greater number of audience. Suppose you are living in Pierre SD. In a local retail shop, only people in your vicinity will buy from you. Alternatively, sometimes a passerby from another state will buy. While online buying a buyer is in Florida or California, it does not matter. The buyer can reach you while residing in another state.
Moreover, if you are a global seller, even the continent is not an issue. You can sell your product to the buyer in Thailand. The procedure for both the case would be the same. Pack your product and send it via delivery service.
These are just examples; there are yet more things to unwind.
2. Borderless trade
As discussed earlier, the trading becomes borderless while trading online. I make sales ONLINE. There is no issue with the logistics. The whole experience is SEAMLESS.
You have the liberty to sell wherever you want. Suppose if the margin is less while buying from the local whole seller. In online business, you have the liberty to buy from any other place. You can even directly buy customized items from the source.
Moreover, many online services are also available to help you out in the process.
3. Small investment for a start
For starting any business in the conventional retail industry, you need to have a good amount of money. You need investment for shop, stock, resource, and bills. Moreover, you need employees and have to pay them a salary, register their insurance, etc.
However, you can start with a few bucks and reinvest them to grow more. If you have a good investment, you can grow at a more rapid speed.
Do you know why I adore ONLINE TRADING? The investment is minimal. $100 is ENOUGH to start.
![Small investment for a start](https://leelinesourcing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Small-investment-for-a-start.png)
4. No need to buy shop for displaying purpose
For an online business, your website, social media or marketplace (Amazon, eBay, etc.) are your display points. This will wave-off the charges of shop as in a conventional system. Moreover, you can invest or save this money for other opportunities.
5. 24/7 presence is good but not necessary
You can also handle your online selling business remotely. Many services and resources available online will help you with this. With this, your 24/7 availability is not required. Services like Amazon FBA fulfills your product delivery without your physical presence.
Thus, you will not miss any family gathering or trip, while doing online business.

In 2020, the revenue earned in this is $96 Billion. It has an annual growth rate of 5.6%. This is a good pitch to play, as the number of competitors is comparatively low. Collection of old-books, music, and games are famous in this category. 1.76 Billion Users have bought items in the last 12 months (March 2020).

Bags & accessories
Bags and related products earned a revenue of $142 Billion from online selling.
It is the MAIN REASON for sellers like me to PREFER it. You should keep it as your option for selling. This is the fastest growing industry online with a growth rate of 10.8%. 1.5 Billion People around the globe are the customers. Lot of opportunity is available to compete in this category.
Household appliances
This category has a growth rate of 9.7% this year. Household appliances cover appliances like washing machines, coffee makers, vacuum cleaners, etc.
In 2020, generated 115 Billion USD of Revenue. This category has a great potential. However, it is not a good option for the starter because of the uncertainty of appliances and the cost of repair.
Furniture & household goods
Companies like IKEA has changed the perspective of online furniture trade. The furniture has introduced the concept of “flat-pack” to make the movement of furniture easy. Companies like these are becoming major shareholders of this category.
Moreover, household goods like kitchen and bathroom accessories, pottery, etc. are part of this category. In 2020, earned revenue of 250 Billion USD with 6.3 % growth rate. There is a great opportunity in this field. This category is nascent among the rest of the online categories we discussed.

Sports & Outdoor
This category consists of more than 60 sub-categories. Including products related to almost every possible sports played on earth. Sub-categories like; hiking equipment, sports clothing, swimming, winter sports, and fitness accessories are high in demand. This generated revenue of 84 Billion USD in the last 12 months. Moreover, the growth rate is 6.8%.
I have been selling sports and outdoors for more than ten years. And it is an EXCELLENT niche if you are a beginner.

Stationery & hobby supplies

Musical instruments and other adult entertainment products are part of this category. Stationery and hobby supplies earned revenue of 156 Billion USD. It has 943.5 million engaged users of this category. Last it has a growth rate of 7.4%.

How To Find What Products To Sell Online
Now next step is how to find what products to sell online. Let us divide this phase in few steps. This will help us find out how should we choose or find out what to sell online.
Find the problem
I constantly research the PROBLEM faced by customers. Providing them with the SOLUTION is the BEST strategy to make sales.
The best thing for selecting a product is to search for a problem. Moreover, how to solve that problem. Almost every entrepreneur adopted this technique.
Search on the internet that might lead you to anything positive. However, if you are unable to find it, after brainstorming months. Then stop thinking and move to the next step. We have numerous options available.
What is the thing you are good at
Ask your friends, mentors, and family members that what you are good at. Then find the product, which lies in that circle.
Look around the products you use and think about what you can improve about them
You can find the right product among the products you interact within your daily routine. Find what better you can do to make it more easy-to-go.
Take ideas from the websites like Pinterest
Pinterest is the place where most of the innovative people around the world share their thoughts. See some pictures you might get inspiration from there.
![pinterest](https://leelinesourcing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/pinterest-1024x478.png)
Early access products
Visit different market places and the rest of the internet. See what news is trending and what is the response from the audience? Try to jump in the bandwagon of that.
Search marketplaces and search engines
I get inspiration by systematically finding out the trends of the products online. My Amazon or Shopify store gives detailed reports.
Market places like Amazon and eBay provide you full statistical reports on every item. Find out what is selling more. What people think about it? What changes they want? What you can do to make it better? How much is the profit?
Try to brand your idea
Try to brand your idea. While searching for the products, I once came across a website Meowingtons.com. It is the PERFECT BRADING of your idea.
This website is a drop-shipping website. There branding so cool, that you will get attracted. However, different companies make all the products. Yet, it feels like all belongs to them. We have seen all these products available at Alibaba. Moreover, different manufacturers sell all these products.
We bet this is the best way to brand. Especially, when you are new and have a limited budget to start.
What is your budget
Look for the products, which you can buy and sell within your budget. This will further shorten your big list of product selection.
![Budget](https://leelinesourcing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Budget-1024x538.jpg)
Do not go for seasonal products
Anyhow, seasonal products are a good option to sell online. However, when you are starting an online business in seasonal products, it will demotivate you. You will feel sudden deprivation at the end of the season.
Try not to go for fragile products
Fragile products may result in a loss for the starters. As an online business starter, we do not know how the delivery agents handle the product. So keeping that in mind, cross these options from your list, no fragile products.
I do not sell FRAGILE products. They do not sustain for extended periods and get damaged earlier.
Finally, these products will help you out on how to select what to sell online. These will give you the best products to sell online.

Drop-shipping methods
Another way to sell online is dropshipping. In this type of selling physical presence does not matter at all. Following are the main steps of selling through dropshipping:
- Select your product
- Locate sourcing agent to check
- Talk with the storage agency were you sourcing agent to deliver.
- Look for the storage agency that provide logistic and custom clearance as well.
- Ask them to prepare the products as you want them to sell
- Choose as many marketplaces you want to sell to increase the audience.
- They will handle the products as you suggest them.
Dropshipping also offers tools, which help you identify the product with the potential to sell more.
Social-Media platforms
You can use social media to sell your product by advertisement, making pages, and groups. This is also very effective but you have to invest an enormous amount of time to catch customers.
![dropshipping marketing](https://leelinesourcing.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/dropshipping-marketing.png)
Own website or online shop
The third way is to make your online e-commerce website. Then use tools of advertisement to attract your customers. Many e-commerce tools are available to customize your website, for example, Shopify. They will provide you domain and hosting services and you will be ready to go.
For beginners, the rest of the three are more feasible, unless you got a unique product. However, if you are using other options as well. This option will make you look more professional. We previously gave you an example of Meowingtons. That was the example of an online shop.

Do You Want To Carry Inventory Or Dropship?
For the beginners drop shipping is a better choice as compared to carrying inventory. Carrying inventory is more profitable.
However, it also requires an enormous amount of devotion and time. Therefore, according to my opinion, the drop shipping is more feasible to start a business, as your mind will indulge on the marketing side only.
This will give you time to focus on your customers’ demands and improve your business accordingly.
Now, when you find out the business is stable and you are earning a good deal of money. Then you can go for the option of carrying inventory by hiring dedicated staff for this and other day-to-day operations.
