Dropshipping gives entrepreneurs all the benefits of e-commerce without the burden of storing the product; however, it doesn’t provide the benefits of having stock on-hand. What if you could get the best of both worlds?
Enter Topdser Private Storage
Topdser’s new Private Storage now gives dropshippers the option of pre-purchasing products and creating their own supply. Pre-purchased products are shipped to the Topdser warehouse where they are then stored.
Users will have their own space for their respective shops with free hosting for up to 100 days! This is all well and good, but how does this help you?
1. Faster Delivery Means Happier Customers
The Topdser Warehouse is focused on serving Topdser users as fast as possible. Products sold while housed in Private Storage will be swiftly packed and shipped with little process time. Having on-hand stock can save as much as 4 days of shipping time.
Amazon Prime has created a tidal wave of impatient buyers. While Private Storage may not be 2-day shipping, possibly shaving half a week of shipping time will give you the edge against competitors.
2. Wholesale to Save More
Dropshippers usually don’t have the luxury of wholesale purchasing products. Wholesale pricing is almost always cheaper than purchasing 1-by-1. Private Storage eliminates one of the biggest downsides of dropshipping.
Stock up on your hot products at a lower price without lowering the product price. Profit margins go up, shipping times go down and you smile all the way to the bank.
3. NO MORE “Out of Stock”
No customer wants to see the dreaded OUT OF STOCK message right before they are about to hand you their money in the peak shopping season. Get ahead of the curve.
Pre-purchase your top products and have them ready for the holiday rush. It’s much easier to manage your own stock than it is to rely on the stock of a supplier. You never know when they might run out or stop carrying that product. Rather than be stuck scrambling to find a new supplier, plan ahead. Bulk purchase when prices are low and stack your hot product high in Private Storage.
4. Save More with Topdser Wallet
E-commerce is a game of growing your profit margin inch by inch. Using the Topdser Wallet Function, users can preload funds and save money. Topdser offers up to a 2% discount on each purchase. While that might not seem like a mountain of cash, this quickly adds up over dozens of purchases.
