What Do I Need To Drop Ship.

I have written alot about finding dropshippers and what to sell. Apart from that you will need, a computer, a phone ( landline Number ) a ebay shop, your own web site ( maybe for the future ) You will need to register as self employed as the rules have changed. Open a paypal business account and also think of a name for your shop. Think carefully about your name because when you finally start your own web site you want it to be the same.You will need a good shop template to make your business stand out from the rest, you don't need to be spending hundreds as there are some good one's for under £100.00 nowadays. For a template you get get them for  free. As you are now a online business you will need to put a returns on your shop and some terms and conditions. This is to cover you as well as your future customers. Check out the Distant Selling Regulations online to help you or check on ebay as well. You will need to say what payments you will accept. On ebay paypal is a must on your own web site the choice is up to you.What your return policy is, don't forget they have a 7 day cooling off period as well which should be on. You need to check this all out other wise you could leave yourself wide open. When you have your own web site you will need to host it with someone. Have a very good look around get some quotes from at least 3 different companies. I may have missed some things out but this is just a rough guide to help you. How are you with dealing with customer complaints? Make sure you have enough funds for charge backs or returns don't fall at the first fence because you wasn't prepared.
I will share this forum with you, it cost nothing to join and you will learn a hell of alot. This is the link to it.
