Dropshipping 101【3】 直運 Dropshipping 全攻略
Welcome back! After reviewing the pros of dropshipping, we shall investigate the cons, too.
First and foremost, inventory tracking could be difficult. When the number of suppliers increases with your products provided, you would need to track multiple suppliers’ stocks.
Second, imagine a customer buying 3 products that you sourced from 3 separate suppliers. How can you arrange the shipment seamlessly and cost-effectively?
Thirdly, the reliability of your suppliers is crucial to make your business sustainable. What can be done to filter those who behaved badly and establish long-term partnerships with “golden suppliers”?
Next, as the variety of the products are much greater than traditional sellers, the difficulty of branding and customization is higher. In other words, how to maintain good branding and even add value to your service through customization?
Finally, to be honest, the competition is still fierce and many of dropshipping businesses are earning a low margin, compared to traditional counterpart. Simply put, the input is low, as well as the output.

歡迎回來!在回顧了直運的優點之後,我們也應研究一下其不足之處。
首先,庫存跟踪可能會很困難。當供應商數量隨著您提供的產品而增加時,您需要查看多個供應商的庫存以及挑選適合的產品。
其次,假設客戶購買了您從 3 個不同供應商處採購的 3 種產品。您如何無縫且低成本地安排發貨?
第三,可靠的供應商對於您的業務的持續發展至關重要。有甚麼辦法可以過濾那些往績不良的供應商,並與「黃金供應商」建立長期合作夥伴關係?
再者,由於直運的產品品種比傳統賣家多得多,建立獨特品牌的難度更高。換句話說,如何通過定制保持良好的品牌形象,甚至為您的服務增加價值?
最後,老實說行業競爭仍然很激烈,與傳統同行相比,許多直運公司的利潤率較低。簡而言之,投入較少的資源,獲得的回報也較少。
還記得第一集中提到的「零售科技的魔法」嗎?幸運的是,上述問題現在都可以用科技的力量輕鬆解決。很高興向大家介紹DataSunday的解決方案。DataSunday的一站式直運方案可以藉助大數據讓您洞察產品採購、供應商選擇、實時信息同步等。
