If you’re looking for a dependable side hustle to make some extra money, you should probably consider dropshipping. Confused already? It’s a lot simpler than it sounds. 

Basically, dropshipping is acting as a broker between a consumer and a third-party, usually the manufacturer or a wholesaler. Think of it as “on-demand selling,” in that you offer products for sale but don’t actually purchase them until you receive an order from a customer. That means you can open your own e-commerce store without paying a whole bunch of money upfront for inventory, and you can offer a wide variety of products because you’re not limited by an inventory budget. As long as the supplier has an item in stock, you can sell it.
