The Four Steps of a Dropshipping Side Hustle
When you think about how a product gets from a factory to your front door, you usually picture a chain: a manufacturer makes it, a wholesaler buys it in bulk, and a retailer sells it to you. A dropshipper doesn’t really have a spot in that traditional chain. Instead, dropshipping is a service model where you act as the bridge connecting the customer directly with the manufacturer or wholesaler. This approach to building an ecommerce side hustle lets you offer products at a much lower price by cutting out some of the usual middlemen.
