Do I need to purchase products for my online store?

One of the main advantages of dropshipping is that you don't need to purchase inventory upfront. You only buy products after receiving orders from customers. When a customer makes a purchase, you use their payment to order the item from your supplier, who ships directly to your customer. This business model minimizes financial risk and eliminates storage costs. You can focus your capital on marketing and growing your business instead of tying it up in inventory. However, it's recommended to order sample products initially to verify quality and understand shipping times.
