Business Strategy: What is the step by step guide to starting my own drop shipping business?
OR
OR
Omar Rasem, Life Coach - Civil Engineer- Multiple Business answered:

Drop shipping was one of the greatest methods to earn income back in 2020. People are still doing it now days and it is still a method people use to earn some additional income.

Before I give you the details guid I would like to share some information about drop shipping that social media doesn't show. Drop Shipping is one of the most saturated and competitive markets in 2023, just making a website and selling product does not mean people will click on the website.

Second point you really need to focus on marketing strategy this may also be costly.

Anyhow these are some pointers to get you started:
1.) Choose a product niche, for you probably POD
2.) Find a supplier: probably from Alibaba
3.) Set up Online Store
4.) Import Product Listing to your website
5.) Set Price
6.) Market your Store ( most important one)
7.)Receive order / Pay Order
8) Supplier Shipment

If you are willing to put the effort you might get a successful business , we can arrange a call to further discuss those point or even give you couple of points on your business plan and how to get you started.

Best of Luck
