Easy start business - dropshipping
If you are looking for a quick and easy way to boost your monthly income or start a new business, with little or no financial outlay, on-demand dropshipping is the ideal opportunity for you.
If you're not familiar with dropshipping as a concept, it basically means that you sell someone else's products, but they handle stock inventory and storage, as well as order fulfilment - basically, all of the hassle associated with product sales.
All you have to worry about is marketing, generating sales and enjoying the profits.
How does dropshipping work?
Dropshipping is ideal for anyone:
- looking to earn extra income
- with little start-up capital
- with a full-time job / little time to dedicate to a new business
- with limited space / storage
- without staff resources
- with minimal experience / knowledge of retail
- who is entrepreneurial.
Dropshipping (sometimes known as "direct dispatch") is a very straight-forward concept: you select a product type (ideally one or more products with high profit margins) and then connect to a supplier that manufactures, holds and dispatches the inventory on your behalf.
Products ship directly from the supplier to your customer, and you only pay for what you sell, when you sell it. No upfront inventory costs, no hassles with fulfillment. Simple... and profitable (if you pick the right supplier)!
Step 1: Your customer places an order from you (e.g. through your online store).
Step 2: You place the corresponding order with your dropshipping supplier.
Step 3: Your dropshipping supplier prepares your customer’s order and ships it directly to your customer (who thinks it has come from you).
How to find products to dropship and the right dropship supplier
Once you have decided on starting a dropship business, the obvious next questions are: what to sell, and who to buy it from?
You want to choose quality items, with high profit margins and that do not require much (if any) previous industry experience or knowledge.
Health foods and supplements meet all of these criteria!
The natural health industry is booming, especially in the wake of the pandemic, and therefore represents an excellent business opportunity.

Our high quality products have great margins on re-sale, and to maximise profits for our re-sellers, we also offer the following unique dropshipping benefits, rarely available from other dropship suppliers:
- NO minimum orders (ours is a truly on-demand dropshipping service - you can order as few as one unit at a time with no worries about product shelf life or advance outlay on bulk stock)
- NO dropshipping fees (unlike most other dropship suppliers, we do not charge our customers to store stock, print labels, pick stock and fulfil their orders; all you pay is the cost of the postage, as if you were posting the item yourself).
Own brand dropship - private label supplements
Want to maximise profts further? We've got you covered.
Why not re-sell our products under your own personalised labels and branding?
The benefit of going down this "private label" route (rather than selling under our Specialist Supplements Ltd branding), is that your customers will not be able to make direct price comparisons. This gives you flexibility to charge more.
We offer a very affordable in-house Own Label service. For a small one-off fee, we will design and set up your labels for all products you choose to re-sell. What's more, we will print and apply the labels to all dropship orders at no extra charge.
This is the best way to increase profit margins, promote customer loyalty and secure re-orders.
