    Beginners often accept the first price offered by suppliers without negotiating, but suppliers will try to charge higher prices. To get the best deal, ask for pricing on bulk orders of 1,000 and 3,000 units with logos, then use that price to negotiate a test order. Contact multiple suppliers so you can compare prices and get a fair market rate. Identify yourself as the lead purchasing agent so you have flexibility to negotiate prices by saying you need approval. Exaggerate the size of your company to make it seem like a bigger client.

    How To Make Sure You Are Getting The

    BEST Price From Suppliers


    One of the BIGGEST mistakes beginners with eCom make is that they blindly
    agree to the first price that the suppliers offer.

    Remember:
    Suppliers will ALWAYS try to charge you higher than you can get from them...
    much higher.

    You would be amazed by how much you can reduce the price if you just
    push them a bit, and use some negotiation strategies...

    1. Always ask for prices for 1,000 units with logo, and 3,000 units with logo
    right away.

    This will give you an idea of the lowest price they can go down to...

    Use that price and offer them that for dropshipping as a 'test order', or as a 'test
    order' for bulk orders.

    2. Always contact more than 1 supplier (3-5 is best.)

    That way you will be able to compare prices between them, and you'll get a
    good idea of a fair price for the product.

    3. Always call yourself the 'Lead Purchasing Agent' for the brand.

    That way, any time a supplier offers you a price, you can say you will 'check
    with your boss/CEO' and then you can get back to them.

    4. Always make your company look bigger than it is.


    They will ask how many orders you have -- say you have thousands.
