How To Use The Market Research Tool with WorldWide Brands - Photo courtesy of flickr
When potential drop shippers and home based business owners sign up with worldwidebrands they have the option of using a resource tool called the market research wizard. This resource allows the user to discover the best products to sell online with instant market research.
There are 3 main components to discover if a product will be successful to market. These are the product; demand, competition, current advertisements. Then the final results will be obvious if any effort should go ahead for the marketer.
The market research tool will firstly allow the seller to find out what the demand is for selling a product online. You will be able to see the amount of searches for a product that has been completed within the last 30 days. You can get specific with your searches for example if you were looking at selling baseball caps you could search for NY Yankees baseball cap.
You will also see results that display a mixture of other keywords that you can use for your auctions on ebay or your online search campaigns within google pay per click.
The next feature of the market research wizard will allow you to do is check out possible competition. There is no point in trying to sell a product if there is far too much competition. The way that the worldwide brands market research wizard works it will list results from Yahoo stores, Ebay and Google.
The market research wizard will then check to see the amount of advertising that is running for your product. If there is some advertising running on google then this is a good sign. But if there is too many campaigns then this is a bad sign as you will have far too much competition to try and compete with other sellers within the market.
The final step when using the market research wizard tool all data will be revealed by a bar indicator with 3 ranges; difficult to sell, good probability and best probability.
When using the market research tool don’t give up if you end up with a lot of difficult to sell results. You need to keep trying to find that product that has not been hammed by other sellers.

Is Drop shipping from USA to UK a successful business model Photo courtesy of flickr
Not every member that signs up for worldwidebrands is located in the USA. For new members that are based in the UK are there any problems and what is it really like for UK small business owners? Are there any advantages or disadvantages for being based offshore? This article will explain these points in detail so you will know if doing business in the UK using worldwidebrands is even possible.
Typically the new member at worlwidebrands is a beginner at starting an online store. They spend hours researching the subject online. Often they will go around in circles trying to decide what drop shipper or wholesaler to use. WorldwideBrands will not have any dramas with users from the UK signing up for their online directory.
UK users can purchase items from the suppliers that worldwidebrands list in their directory commonly by a credit card or wire transfer – but wire transfers can be very expensive. Wholesalers and dropshippers all require payment up front. This is understandable as fraud is very common online. Communication with the wholesalers can be email and telephone. This will install confidence for the new Ebusiness newbie.
Are there any advantages to being based offshore when running an online store from the UK? – there is major benefit to running an online E-store when based in the UK. You have the luxury of the UK pound being having major strength over the US green back. This means you can buy products cheaply at US prices and have nice profit margins when you sell to your UK customers. This is of course dependant on the type of product that you choose to sell. If you choose to sell a major product you will need a license to sell online. Or if you ended up going through a UK distributor the margins for this method are very low along with extreme competition.
UK online retailers can sell locally on ebay.co.uk with their own online store. This can be a great way to test the market for new products. If you are interested to see an example of how I drop shipped products to the UK from the USA when I was based in New Zealand take a look at my article here
It is obvious from this article that there are major benefits to be located in the UK or another country where the local dollar is stronger than the USA. The online E-tailer has immediate advantage of high profit margins when selling to local markets. Setting up relationships with these companies based in the USA is easy with many pre-pay options for items to be drop shipped.

Searching for the best products to sell to your customers is the process that every small business owner needs to go through. You have already researched on the web to look at free drop shipping reports and maybe you have even been ripped off by some scammers selling fake wholesale supplier details or the wholesalers that you have found just did not work out.
It is understandable that you need to know all the facts before you part with your dollars to find out if worldwide brands will provide you with the products that you are looking for. This article will delve into the types of products that they offer in their drop shipping database.
From the range, to the types of products that they do not list and the niche products you will discover fully. After absorbing this information you will know whether worldwidebrands will serve your online product sourcing needs.
The types of products that worldwidebrands lists in their drop shipping directory are across a very large range. All the main categories that you would expect are available within worldwidebrands so you could establish yourself in any online market.
One type of product that you will not find within their directory on a large scale is a video gamming product. Sure they do have some products but you will not find Xbox and PlayStation products. To sell these types of products you will need to have a contract with the major distributors and they will be very controlling about who can sell their products.
Sure you may come across some suppliers on the Internet that will sell to you but they will add such high margins that it will be impossible to even turn a profit.
What worldwide brands allows you to do best is provide you with a products that work really well within niches and sub niches. To give you an example of a niche product category that always sells really well check out the security products that worldwide brands has within their wholesale directory.
They have many available and this is a really hot niche to get into. Unfortunately I cannot post any names of these wholesalers for obvious reasons. Some already set-up retailers offline use worldwide brands to find quality suppliers to add to their already supplier base.
When you are a member of world wide brands you will need to research a little within their supplier cataegories and the types of products that their wholesale and manufacturers provide to investigate current online/offline competition to check it will be a profitable for you to enter into the niche.

For the home user that is trying to find dropship companies in Australia that could be used to sell items on ebay can be a daunting task. Here you will find 3 secrets that you can utilise immediately to start generating profit for your online operations. I will even show you a current seller on ebay who is drop shipping a particular product (which I will reveal) and where they are buying the product from.
The Australian drop ship supplier that we expose is called 00.oo.com.au this is an online bargin mega store that has been operating since January 2002. They claim that they offer up to eightly precent off retail prices.
Lets take a look at the products they are selling and see how they compare on ebay Australia. I am going to reveal to you a product that is currently listed on Ebay Australia and where you can see how a seller is selling and the amount they are profiting!
Here is the product it is called “ aussie air split air conditioner – reverse cycle 1.5 HP – wall mountable with remote control and Toshiba compressor”
Here is the seller’s auction on ebay….
Aussie Air Ebay Auction Dropshipping
You can see from the screenshot that the seller has a buynow of AU$630.00 have a guess where this seller is buying the product from? … take a look at 00.com.au here is the screenshot….
00 website sourcing product for airconditioner for dropshipping
So this seller is making a $630 – $529.95 = $100.05 Profit per unit. This goes to show that a little research online can reveal hidden niches that you can easily target. What would my nect steps be? … I would monitor this seller on ebay and see how many sales they are turning over a week. I would actually watch the seller for a minimum of 4 weeks. This will be enough time to decide if it is the right idea to target the market. You will also be able to gauge competition. To see if any other sellers decide to hit the same product on the market.
We continued reviewing drop shippers in Australia but we very surprised to find that the majority of suppliers were unprofessional and just didn’t really understand or believe in the drop shipping concept. So we still recommend using only one source for drop shipping and that is worlwidebrands.
If you haven’t done so already see my article here that shows you how to turn a profit for your business even if you are located miles away from your intended customer base.
