Dropshipping is a great business model for anyone who does not want to deal with carrying inventory and the hassle of packaging and shipping orders. You get higher profit margins than affiliate marketing, brand your products and retain your own customers for repeat opportunities to sell your products.

However, it is very important to identify a hot market where customers are already buying and to locate a reliable drop shipper before starting a drop shipping business. The first step is to identify a hot dropshipping niche with in demand products people want to buy that aren't available at every big chain store or every online store who dropships or sells wholesale products.

With so many small businesses coming online, the competition for customers has grown intense. Dropshipping is a favorite choice, especially for new sellers. You have to admit, the thought of selling a zillion dollars a month of product on eBay or off a website with no inventory, and very start up costs sounds great.

Unfortunately, this just isn't going to happen for the majority of people. Why? Because they failed to do the research necessary to identify a hot selling product niche -- one with plenty of buyers, but not too much competition competing for their dollars. Supply and demand, that's what it's all about.

Dropshipping is like a popular lake on the first day of fishing season. Everyone is in the same spot, with the same bait, all trying to catch the same group of fish. When there are more fishermen than fish, some fishermen will just have to go home hungry.

But the fisherman who has his own little known spot where the fish hang out in a seldom visited corner of the big lake, usually goes home with some fish. If he also knows what the fish in that spot are biting on and where to get that bait, he'll probably go home with a lot more fish. This is the guy who will become a sucessfull dropshipper.

Many people want to sell the "hot" general items. Although there is nothing wrong with that, you don't want to be going up against huge giant corporations. They have the power to cut special deals with the name brand companies, that you just don't have. You can't compete with them, so why waste your time trying?

You want to think "niche", NOT mainstream. The wholesale or dropshipping business is very profitable IF you have specialized in a tight niche that appeals to a specific demographic of customers.

A niche is a small market segment which is usually overlooked or ignored by larger companies. These niches are usually occupied by small businesses which can be more effective than their larger competitors, because they specialize in these parts of the market.

When choosing a dropshipping niche you have to take several things into account:

The niche needs to be of sufficient size and purchasing power to be profitable.
The niche needs to have growth potential.
Make sure large companies have little interest in the niche.
You have the required resources and skills to serve the niche effectively.

You must know the niche well enough to be able to write related articles which people who would buy your products would be interested in reading, or know where to buy quality articles on that subject. The internet is driven by search engines, and search engines thrive on unique content. Most shoppers don't start out with the goal of buying something. They are looking for interesting information, and you better be able to fill that need if you want to keep them on your website long enough to steer them to your products.

Once you figure out the dropshipping niche you want to target, you need the technical skills to build a website and eCommerce catalog to put all those articles and products in, and you need to find a reliable source to supply your products.
