TVS Order Fulfillment Services | TVS Drop Shipping
In international logistics, live products are sensitive goods, because the temperature and air pressure during transportation will change greatly, and the battery is flammable and explosive, and many aviation construction sites are directly not responsible for the business of air transportation of live products. But there must be a way to transport them abroad, otherwise how can these appliances be exported?
Charged products can be mailed abroad, but the procedures related to personal direct mail are very complicated, and there are very strict requirements for battery power. Therefore, the core is to find a reliable shipping company.
Todropshipping is through the company's professional channels for sensitive goods, special products and live products mailed to foreign countries. In addition to live products, food, cosmetics, high-end brand products, etc. are sensitive goods, which can be transported by dropshipping.
Affected by the epidemic, China's LCD TV exports have not ushered in a good start this year. According to the database of China Commercial Industry Research Institute, China's LCD TV exports from January to April 2020 were 25.96 million units, a year-on-year decrease of 11.1%. However, in the context of insufficient material supply, fluctuating raw material prices, lack of workers and blocked cross-border logistics, TV brands such as TCL and Hisense have ushered in an increase in sales overseas.
According to data, in the first quarter of this year, the sales of TCL brand TVs in the US retail market increased by 6% year-on-year, of which sales in March increased by 45% month-on-month.
1. The market demand of products should be large
This is the basic principle. Long tail products are not suitable for overseas warehouses、 because it will affect the conversion rate and produce life and death inventory. However、 the size of the market is reasonable、 and the seller needs to evaluate according to the capital situation and turnover rate.
2. Focus on the total profit per unit time rather than the profit of a single transaction
In general、 the profit margin of overseas warehouse of most products will be much higher than that of domestic shipment、 which is also the advantage of overseas warehouse.
Is it true that the profits of overseas warehouses are not as good as those of products shipped domestically、 so they must not be overseas warehouses? In fact、 it is not because we also need to comprehensively consider the conversion rate of overseas warehouse、 because products with high conversion rate can also achieve higher total profits through overseas warehouse!
This requires our sellers to look at overseas warehouses from a developmental and overall perspective.
For example、 if the profit margin of a product shipped from China is 20% and that of an overseas warehouse is 10%、 but the conversion rate of an overseas warehouse is 6 times that of a Chinese shipment、 the total profit obtained in the same time period is 3 times that of a Chinese shipment. Therefore、 we should not only look at the profit rate、 but also calculate the overall cost and benefit.
One-stop dropshipping means that cross-border e-commerce sellers deliver their products in bulk to third-party overseas warehouses in the United States by shipping、 air freight and other logistics forms、 and when the platform generates orders、 it will send them back to the warehouse、 where the warehouse will process the goods according to the orders、 and then deliver them to relevant logistics companies such as UPS、 USPS、 FedEx、 DHL、 etc. for delivery.
