E286: Yes, A Successful Dropshipping Business is STILL Possible in 2019

In the ecommerce realm, opinions on starting a dropshipping business really differ. Some people say it's dead, others insist that its the only way to go. Well, dropshipping is still very much around. But as Amazon moved into a position of dominance, its appeal has waned. The fact that some so-called "gurus" who sell dropshipping as an "easy" way to earn millions hasn't helped either. However, there are those who own sustainable dropshipping businesses.  Dave Couillard, our resident design expert, is one of them. I've asked Dave to join me in this podcast episode to talk in detail about his website, HardCases.ca. This will also serve as his formal introduction as a business partner on EcomCrew. Here are some highlights from our discussion: Dave's ecommerce journey: from web design to dropshipping (12:59) What a typical day for him is like (19:13) Sourcing products and finding suppliers (23:10) Running a dropshipping store (44:40) Pros & cons of dropshipping (59:37) I hope our discussion didn't only prove informative but encouraged you to look at dropshipping businesses in a different, albeit more positive light.
