It’s also called ” Stockless Retailer” . I chose this internet business method when I started, and so far my dropship business is going very well.I believe everyone can get profits once they get the point.

Step 3.

Get tax ID and business license and open a business bank account !
In order to apply for a dropship company and a merchant service which we can accept credit card from the customers payment, we need to prepare those three.

Also when you apply for a wholesale company or affiliate merchant service ( some mechant service don’t need tax ID ) they will ask your tax ID.
Where to get them ?
Tax ID – I got my tax ID for free here.

Step 4:

Decide dropship company for your dropship business !
Once you found good products that have high demand and profitability, low supply, you need to apply for the dropship company.

They will send you their dropship program information. Most of the dropship companies offer about 50% to 65% discount as a wholesale price to the dealers.

Some companies offer dropship fee ( $1.00 to $5.00 for each order) and also some may offer minimum order about $150.00 in the first time order.

Please make sure to check all their dropship program information. I’m measuring at least 60% profits from the wholesale price. Your profit = retail price you set up in your store – wholesale price – transaction fees

If the dropship company offer dropship fee in each order, you can add the dropship fee in the retail price when you set up the price.

Step 5 :

Find a web hosting company and register the domain name!

Step 6 :

They are great teachers and they explain everything about how to build Yahoo store by step by step system. Fun to read and easy to understand.
