Benefits Disadvantages Is dropshipping for you?

Dropshipping can make order processing difficult.
Dropshipping seems 
straightforward: the customer orders, you process, and your supplier fulfills. And for 
the most part, it is simple.
However, if you’re sourcing products from multiple suppliers, you might run into 
some problems. Each of your suppliers might use a different shipping solution, 
which presents a problem for both you and your customers. Costs can get high, 
and shipping multiple products can be problematic.
Different suppliers will also have different structures in place for 
processing and billing. Since you have to manage the interaction 
with your suppliers, this can get tricky.

1. What Is Dropshipping?

Dropshipping doesn’t give you a lot of control.
When it comes to stocking 
products, order fulfillment, and shipping, things are out of your hands entirely. One 
of the disadvantages of dropshipping is that you don’t have much control over 
certain aspects of the dropshipping process. You have to rely on your suppliers to 
do everything right and work seamlessly. This lack of control can be off-putting to 
some entrepreneurs, but it usually isn’t a problem.
This just means that when something goes wrong, it can be tricky to manage. When 
everything goes well, it’s awesome. But when supplier problems happen, you just 
have to wait for them to be resolved. This can sometimes cause customer retention 
issues, but with the right damage control, you can mitigate the problems and keep 
customer churn to an absolute minimum.
Dropshipping makes
 
customer service
 
more challenging.
This is another 
problem that happens when orders go wrong or suppliers fail. Because you’re just 
the storefront, it can be difficult to sort out orders. Like I mentioned before, you 
don’t have a lot of control, and that can present difficulties when it comes to the 
customer support side of things.
