It’s easy to be attracted to wanting to start a dropshipping business. After all, it’s advertised for its ease and convenience, especially when compared to various other types of businesses. 

But nothing great comes easy, so it’s important to understand dropshipping for what it really is – with all its marvelous perks and glory, but also its limitations. 

This is why this guide not only explains what dropshipping is, but also takes you through how you can maneuver a dropshipping business, what niches to pick, how to start it, and how to keep growing it.

What Is Dropshipping?

To learn the ins and outs of dropshipping, how it works, how it can serve you, and what to be wary of, we first need to start with a simple definition of what dropshipping is. 

Dropshipping is a retail fulfillment type where you sell products online without having to have the inventory yourself. How it works is that you display another vendor’s or third-party supplier’s products on your own online store after having added a profit margin for you.

From there, going into detail about how exactly a dropshipping business model works is what uncovers its benefits – but also its caveats.

A Look Into Today’s (and Tomorrow’s) Dropshipping Market:

The dropshipping market was valued at 162.44$ billion in 2019 and is projected to grow to 591.77$ billion by 2027.  Knowing how much potential dropshipping has will help you figure out whether or not it could be worth it for you in today’s economy. 

But because it has many advantages, dropshipping also comes with certain flexibility that will help you adapt to its terms with more than one approach: starting it as a side job, or starting it as a full-time eCommerce business. 

Dropshipping’s Best Niches:

There are 5 basic steps to starting a dropshipping business: 

1. create a professional online store, 
2. choose the best suppliers, 
3. define store departments and product ratings, 
4. promote your products, 
5. and finally receive orders and make a profit. 

But before doing any of that, it makes sense to first decide which niche your dropshipping business should provide. 

Finding accurate data about profitable dropshipping niches will always be a pain for dropshippers because many of the best dropshipping niche rankings are based on the owners’ perspectives instead of any accurate research.
