Hi Everyone!:)
I've been doing some research about Drop shipping. I'm still confused though.
There is a service, as many of you know, that (among other things, verifies that wholesalers/warehouse-distributors as legitimate. The service is worldwidebrands.com. I'm seriously considering signing up with them so that I can get started with a "drop ship- type muse" right away (this is my first muse and I want some auto-pilot income fast). I like the drop ship business model (at least to start and I don't mind paying a bit more than rock -bottom wholesale price for my products because it seems like the most "hands-free" model ).
my questions are:
1) In the 4hww tim uses his friend's "prosoundfx" muse to demonstrate (in my mind) the near perfect muse.
Tim says, in order to resell a product, to first contact the
***"manufacturer" **** of the product.
Does he specifically mean:
A: the owner/creator of the product OR...
B: the people who physically reproduce the hard goods ("the manufacturer")
or
C: the wholesaler/warehouse that stores and distributes the product to the retail brick-and-mortar or to end-consumers through a drop ship agreement.
2) ** Has anyone been using worldwidebrands' service for a while now? Can I get some feedback about it?
3) It seems to me that if I go through them to find wholesalers who'll drop ship than It'll be near impossible to get an exclusivity agreement for a product because the wholesalers listed are willing to sell any of the products to anyone. It seems that their goals is Multiple channels of distribution, not one or two exclusive channels.... Am I right?
4) Can anyone tell me specific step-by-step instructions on how to do exactly what Doug did with "prosoundeffects" only instead using the product of my choice....
I appreciate any help that any of you can give me.
all the best to everyone
