Selecting the appropriate Distributor One of the most important tips which you should keep in mind is having connections with the appropriate distributor because that would define the direction of your business. Following points should be kept in mind while opting for a distributor: 1.Supports Dropshipping Technology is constantly changing, and hence keeping up with the stock or inventory could be very risky. But the dropshipping facility takes care of this issue and makes sure time and money are not wasted. Hence, always select a distributor who supports the dropshipping model, i.e., when a customer orders a product from your eCommerce store, the product gets delivered to the customer from the distributor's end directly. More than everything, select a distributor that has been in the business for a good time. It means to have connections with legit distributors and not some amateurs who would provide facilities at very cheap rates. There have been instances where the product is delivered under a sister company's name and not the actual distributor's company's name.

Hence, integrating your software with a distributor catalog will help you get real-time updates on pricing and product information, and also the availability. This helps you make logical and sound decisions as, if you are aware of the product price and availability, it becomes easier for you to quote shipped products and in minimal time. 3. Price Affordability There can be a significant price difference when selecting amongst a great number of distributors based on various parameters such as wholesaler's connection with the manufacturer, shipping distance, and more. Select a distributor who is ready to provide a mutually agreeable price range. What must be taken care of is that less price does not necessarily indicate a better deal, hence, be sure to not fall into the trap of discounts and later suffer because of it. Customer Service Excellent customer service is key to any great business. Without proper customer service, no business can thrive for long. Customers make and break your business because, in the end, it is them to whom you are going to sell. Hence, look for a supplier who can be there when a customer faces any issues.
