MASTERING DROPSHIPPING- BUILDING YOUR WOOCOMMERCE STORE WITH WOODROPSHIP

Dropshipping is a retail strategy where a store doesn't hold inventory of the products it sells. When a customer buys a product from the store, the retailer purchases the item from a third-party supplier, like a wholesaler or manufacturer, who then ships it directly to the customer. Essentially, the store serves as a mediator in the transaction, managing sales without managing physical inventory.
