Increase Holiday Profits with Drop Shipping, Better Inventory Management

Holiday sales are vital for most ecommerce merchants. But the selling process can be a management headache when a merchant is juggling many different suppliers, sales channels, and stocking requirements. Couple those challenges with trying to decide which products to promote, and what type of inventory levels to maintain for those promotions, and the process is even more difficult.

And then there’s drop shipping. Merchants can potentially increase profits by drop shipping certain products, versus purchasing the inventory and storing it. But, identifying and managing drop shippers and their products can also take time and effort.

Attend the Inventory and Drop Shipping Webinar

If you are a merchant that’s relying on holiday sales, we invite you to join our next webinar, “Manage Inventory and Drop Shipping for the Holiday Rush.” We’ll be discussing how you can streamline drop shipping and inventory management for a smooth-running holiday season that delights you and your customers. We’ll address inventory-warehousing issues, drop shipping opportunities, QuickBooks syncing, multiple supplier management, and the balancing of low-stock versus overstock.

Contributing Editor Lisa Morgan will moderate the webinar. She’ll be joined by experts from Infopia, a leading ecommerce platform, as well as by third-party inventory and logistical professionals. As always with our webinars, we’ll follow the presentation with a lively question-and-answer session, where participants can pose questions to our panel.

**_The one-hour webinar is Tuesday, Sept. 14, 2010 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern U.S. time (Noon Pacific time). We hope you’ll register and attend.
