How to operate cross-border e-commerce without source of goods? Is it difficult to operate?

In China, the no-source model is very popular. Many domestic e-commerce companies are opening stores without a source. In fact, cross-border e-commerce companies can also open stores without a source. They don’t need to stock up, which makes it easier to do. So, how do cross-border e-commerce companies open stores without a source?

1. How to do it?

The literal meaning of the online no-source model is that the seller does not have the goods in hand, but can still list the goods on the store and place an order, and finally ship the goods to complete the order. To do cross-border e-commerce without a source, you need to open your store on the cross-border e-commerce platform first, then choose the products you want to sell, and then find the factory source on Alibaba 1688.

The factory needs to be able to provide drop shipping services, the supply of goods must be stable, and the service must be timely. As for the profit margin, that is up to you to negotiate with the factory.

After opening a store and finding a supplier, negotiate the price policy, return policy and delivery time for dropshipping. Then ask the factory to issue you a brand authorization, upload the pictures and product information provided by the manufacturer to your cross-border e-commerce website, and you can start selling.

After a customer places an order, your shipping factory is notified to ship the goods. After the customer receives the goods, he/she will confirm receipt with you. The money will be deposited into your account. You will then confirm receipt with the shipping factory, and the difference you earn is your profit.

Please note that you should not blindly list products on Wish cross-border e-commerce. Not all products are suitable for you, so you must pay more attention to product selection. For products like shoes and clothing, if you don’t have resources at home, the cross-border advantage of such products is not obvious. There are too many Chinese sellers in cross-border shoes and clothing, and there are even fewer options for shoes and clothing without sources, and the competitive advantage is even less obvious. It is recommended to try other categories.

2. Is it difficult to operate?

According to professional sellers, the no-source model still has many advantages over traditional stores:

1. Low threshold, you only need to open a store group and use ERP software to start operation immediately. No paid advertising such as traffic diversion is required, and no stock pressure is required.

2. The investment is small, and each store only needs to pay a handling fee to operate the project.

3. The benefits are quick, and the execution can produce obvious benefits within 1-2 weeks, and the benefits will become higher and higher.

4. The project is stable. As long as Amazon allows the store to be opened, this project can continue.

5. Simple operation, unique operating techniques combined with powerful ERP automation software, making it easy to go into battle.

The above processes are basically the ones for opening a cross-border e-commerce store without source of goods. The most important thing is product selection. Although there are many suppliers, we must select products with a discerning eye and cannot compromise. We must select products from the perspective of consumers, so that there will be a market.
