If you are looking for one of the best opportunities to be had today for running a business from home, and cost little if anything to set up, then a dropship business is probably the answer for you.  Not only can you run this business from the comfort of your own home, you will not have to worry about keeping large amounts of inventory in stock and you will not have to worry about getting the products shipped to your customers.

In order to get your dropship business started, you will need either your own website, or you can sell your products on eBay.  Then once an order is received and has been paid for by a customer, you send the order over to your dropship supplier and they then send the order directly to your customer while you still make a profit.  Also, you will need to set up an electronic payment system such as those provide by PayPal.

Dropshipping is a type of retailing where, instead of the retailer actually keeping the goods in stock at their own location, they instead pass the order, along with the shipment details from a customer, to a wholesaler.  It is then the job of the wholesaler to dispatch the goods ordered directly to your customer for you.
