Drop shipping is:

  • Customer buys 1,2, or 10 bottles from you
  • The order goes to your manufacturer for just the 1,2, or 10 bottles
  • Manufacturer ships it to your customer

Order Fulfillment is:

  • You purchase product inventory
  • We warehouse your inventory
  • Orders come to us from your website
  • We ship them to your customer

Pros with Drop Shipping

  • Our sister company, OnDemandFulfillment.com is a great way to get started online
  • There is less profit per sale, but less initial investment
  • You can experiment with what works in marketing
  • You can experiment with new products and build momentum

Pros with Order Fulfillment

  • You can make more money with Order Fulfillment which is what we do here at ShipCentral
  • You can really scale, and make more profit
  • You buy inventory and have it sent to us

A good fit for us is 25 orders a week and up.
