Finding the Right Fulfillment Strategy for Your eCommerce Brand

After the complete setup of your online store, you’d likely dive into marketing and advertising. These factors on top of having a great new product mean orders will begin to come in – which means those orders need to be fulfilled.

Self-fulfillment can prove to be a hassle when a large number of orders flood your e-commerce store. This means you will have to do everything from customer communication to order management, label printing, and returns – which means more stress.

The flip side of this is if you’re dropshipping. Dropshipping means that the seller does not keep any inventory or even operate from a warehouse. When orders come in, the seller purchases them directly from the manufacturer, who ships them directly to the buyer. Though many elements such as packaging, shipping times, and damages may be out of your control, dropshipping is very cost-friendly.

In this blog, you can learn more about all the aspects of the fulfillment strategy that best suits your business.
