Hi Paul,

Thanks for this great look at the drop shipping model. What would you say are the greatest challenges to implementing a reliable drop shipping business model and how do small businesses just starting out overcome them?

Hi Heather,

Drop shipping is one way to enter the e-commerce arena with low investment. It isn't easy. But the risk of running a retailer, working with wholesalers that offer drop shipping services, is lower than starting a full fledged e-store.
