    Hi guys

    One of my wishes is to have my very own ecommerce website, but the problem is I don't own any goods.

    I would like to set up a ecommerce website and when persons order a product I order it from the manufacturer or store and then ship the product. Anyone knows how I can get that done I have been looking for ways for more than one year so I gave up on that dream.

    Would also like to allow persons to signup and get great discounts and refer other shoppers etc.

    Virtually impossible as you are going to have an horendous issue with cash flow and most importantly with shipping times as most ecommerce customers expect their order to arrive within 48 hours.

    Invest in stock or don't bother is my advice. Ecommerce is not a cheap or quick win over night business success solution. It has taken me 5 years to build my business and you need to be prepared to put in 60 hours weeks and more

    Drop-shipping is good idea. But you need to more focus in selecting Drop-shippers.

    See Doba is not a Dropshippers, It is just a middle man and most of the time they change the inventory without prior notice.

    Search more on google and find good dropshippers for your business.

    All d best

    Worldwidebrands you can search for dropshippers and small inventory wholesalers through their site. If you can find a manufacturer with overstock from recent production run from another client, you may be able to negotiate a suitable price to buy that extra inventory off them or if you can convince him or her (owner that is) they may allow you to do dropshipping directly from inventory they have readily available on hand to go out the door. Most customers expect to receive what they ordered within 3-5 business days unless otherwise specified on website (if they're a international customer or there's other requirements regarding shipment).
