Blockchain Technology

What is a Blockchain and How Does It Work?

Digital coins or Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin are based on a technology called blockchain. Each cryptocurrency may be different but they all use blockchains to record transactions. So, what is a blockchain? How do they work? What problems do they solve? And how can they be used? Like the name indicates, a blockchain is a chain of blocks that contain information. You can think of a blockchain as a distributed ledger that is open to anyone. Once data gets recorded inside a blockchain, it becomes very difficult to change. Think of a blockchain like a database that stores information. However, unlike a traditional database where all the information is centralized, a blockchain distributes this information across the network. In other words, a Blockchain is decentralized so the same information gets stored across many nodes (i.e. computers) within the network. Each blockchain on every node are exact duplicates of each other. (more…)

How to liquidate inventory

How to Liquidate Inventory Stuck in Amazon FBA

Liquidating items stuck in Amazon FBA is important. Here are some smart tactics to remove or liquidate slow-moving items before they cost you too much.

Amazon’s FBA program presents a great opportunity for any seller looking to grow his or her business on Amazon. When you participate in the Amazon FBA program your products become eligible for all of the Prime benefits that Amazon offers its Prime subscribers. To participate in the Amazon FBA program, you are required to send your products to Amazon fulfillment centers so Amazon can fulfill your products for you.

Therefore, it’s important to keep an eye on your FBA inventory and either remove or liquidate slow-moving items before they cost you too much. (more…)

Wholesale Drop-ship Supplier

How to Start a Drop Ship Online Business

One of the best ways to start an online business is to adopt a drop ship model. This means that you don’t carry any inventory when you make a sale. In a drop shipping business model, you list an item for sale on your website and when a customer makes a purchase, you order it from your supplier and have them ship it directly to the customer as if it was coming from you. The beauty of this model is that you don’t carry any of the inventory risk. In other words, you list a bunch of items on your site and if some of them don’t sell, you aren’t stuck with that inventory. Your supplier is the one taking all the risk of carrying the inventory, storing it and paying for it.

So why would a supplier allow you to do business with them in this fashion, especially when they are the one assuming all the risk? We’ll discuss this in detail below. Let’s look more closely at the steps involved in starting a drop ship business. (more…)
