Reseller, a business concept in the today's time mostly associated with the internet. It describes companies or people who buy products at a bargain price and resell them gainful to end customers. This function is also called distributor or middleman and they always existed. Thus the travelling dealers earned earlier their living and almost every retail shop works, actually, also on the same principle.
In times of internet, however, this kind of earning money became easier, because today a reseller needs neither salesrooms, nor shelves, nor storage areas to bring the offered articles to the end customer. They are the middlemen between the wholesale trader and the end costumer. Product information and product details, as well as arrangements of delivery and payment, everything is carried out online.
Conventionally, the customer searches for the desired products in online shops, offers them, orders and pays. The shop owner waits for the payment and orders the product then from the wholesaler or the manufacturer, and after arrival sends the product to the end customer. Dropshipping means to operate a step higher. You as a reseller order directly from the wholesaler, who can be found in our free dropshippers directory.
And he delivers the product to the end customer, but without any price information as you define the product’s price. This system is also called drop shipping. Today it appears as the most uncomplicated way to operate as a reseller.
