It is a very good channel for manufacturers to purchase goods, but the requirements for the quantity of goods are relatively high, so it is suggested that ordinary sellers can choose local large wholesale markets.
Generally speaking, opening online stores in big cities has more advantages. Frequent visits to local wholesale markets can not only familiarize you with the market, but also get very cheap wholesale prices. If we can establish a good relationship between supply and demand with some wholesalers, we can get the first-hand hot goods and ensure the low price of online sales.
But in the wholesale market, shopkeepers need to have strong bargaining power, and it is easy to get high-priced goods if they are not careful. Buying goods in the wholesale market also increases the investment risk of shopkeepers, and increases the possibility of overstocking and after-sales service not being guaranteed.
2. Online shop agent, online shop agent or online shop joining.
Generally, more reliable online shop agents have formal business licenses, and warehouses also have certain inventory products. In addition, in order to ensure the authenticity of the general home, the product pictures are subject to the real shot. Good on-site service has certain guarantee for after-sales service. Of course, delivery speed, product quality, price and other factors are also important criteria to measure whether an online shop agent is reliable.

Skills of obtaining goods from sources: wholesale and retail
The biggest difference between the two is that wholesalers have low profits from selling a single commodity and can only make money through a large number of shipments, while retailers have high profits from selling a single commodity, but the shipments are less than wholesalers.
When opening an online shop for the first time, most operators don't want to press too many products, so they will choose only a small part of each product as samples to gradually understand the market demand of consumers through samples. If you find that this commodity is in great demand, decide to replenish it, because it is relatively safe and less risky.
But this method also has a disadvantage, that is, when you ask the wholesaler to buy a single product, or no one is willing to give you the goods, even if the price is much higher than the wholesale price. In this way, your higher purchase price and profit margin will inevitably lead to your uncompetitive price, and many customers will give up buying, which will inevitably interfere with your judgment on the market prospect of this product.
So before you do it, you need to know the customer's needs, have absolute confidence in your own selection of goods, give the wholesaler enough sincerity and confidence in the process of purchasing goods, and strive for a good wholesale price for yourself with quantity.
