Hey, a lot of you seem to sell on amazon. I am pretty new to the online selling topic but I am trying to figure out why they all prefer selling on amazon to dropshipping.
Here are possible advantages I can think of dropshipping:
- You can create your own brand with your website, which you can't do on amazon (can you?)
- You do not need a warehouse
- You do not have huge costs or risks at start
- You do not have a direct price comparison. On amazon everyone can quickly take a look at the othere prices of the product. If you have your website, they first have to google.
Advantages of amazon:
- More trustworthy
- Faster shipping
What is the thing I am missing? In my opinion dropshipping is still the better choice, you do need even pay a percentage to anyone like you have to do at amazon.
