Dropshipping is a business model for online retailers where the retailers take orders, then forward the requests to a supplier, and the supplier packages and ships the goods directly to the customers. This process allows the e-retailer to avoid keeping on-hand inventory in a warehouse. Many jobs in this industry are remote; work from home positions may include customer service representatives who take orders and process payments from customers, marketing specialists who promote the store and its brand, or managers who negotiate with suppliers and oversee operations. Your responsibilities may also include the design and maintenance of the e-commerce website.
