What is dropshipping?
Dropshipping is a type of e-commerce business model and a popular way for small businesses to sell products online without manufacturing them; it is called White Label.

What does it require?
Dropshipping requires you to work with a manufacturer, distributor, or wholesale supplier; you have to partner with them to get your brand approved. For more ease, you can start with sites like Printify, Spocket, AliDropship, etc.

What and how should I do it?
You can advertise and promote items in any form: website, blog, social media, or any medium where you can get customers. You can also put them up for sale through your e-commerce website.
Your job will be that, when you get an order, you will have to send that order to the suppliers and alert them. In return, you will get a certain percentage (or whatever is decided in the agreement) of the sale. Suppliers will handle production, storage, and shipping.​
