Now let’s Google the meaning of E-Commerce and Dropshipping so you understand more.
What is “E-Commerce”?
E- commerce is the buying and selling of goods and services online. It involves the use of the internet and digital technologies to conduct transactions between businesses, individuals, and/or governments. E-commerce has revolutionized the way people shop and do business, making it more convenient and accessible to a wider audience. It includes various types of transactions, such as business-to-business (B2B), business-to-consumer (B2C), and consumer-to-consumer (C2C) transactions like Lazada, Amazaon and Shoppee.
What is “Dropshipping”?
In Drop shipping, the seller does not have to hold inventory or worry about managing a warehouse. Instead, they rely on the third-party supplier to fulfill the orders directly to the customers. This allows the seller to focus on marketing, customer service, and growing their business without the added costs and time associated with managing inventory and shipping logistics.
How Seataoo earn from this kind of Business model?
Dropshipping business relies on finding the best products to market to their customers and typically do not need to worry about sourcing, storing, or shipping the products themselves. Seataoo’s professional warehouse directly purchases products from factories without going through distributors, allowing sellers to maximize their profits by offering competitively priced products to their customers. Seataoo does not charge any commissions or intermediary fees, only earning a slight price difference when supplying goods.
Seller obligation and Requirements
What is a Seller?
Seller is the one going to chose which product going to sell in Seataoo e-commerce seller website and the one who going to fund the initial worth of each product they sold.
What is the requirement to be a Seller?
- Pateince, ROI (return of investment) can’t be happen in just few days, it may take time depends on your seller sites performance and products you are selling. If you don’t have this then this is not for you.
- initial investment to fund your Seataoo wallet (you only need to fund your wallet when you got orders) You can start with any amount but I think the ideal is 5,000 PHP ~ 30,000 PHP as initial investment or Puhunan na tinatawag.
- You need a valid ID like National ID, Passport, Driver License, etc for verification.
- You need a cellphone or laptop and internet
- You need a PH bank account to withdraw your profit and for cash-in.
- Gcash, optional only for easier cash-in process
- You need to a referral code: 81355897ll (for faster approval of your seller account) or you can register here with referral ready link.
Note: Everyone can be a seller as long you got those requirements above even you’re not in based Philippines.
Conclusion:
Technically Seataoo took every work you may need to do if you setup a e-commerce + dropshipping websites, in term of site maintenance, programing, inventory, warehouse, payment process and delivery. All you need to do is to setup your a seller account, put some fund on it to pay the initial worth of the product you sold, and then take the profit after the costumer received the products which takes 15-20days timeframe.
Since Seataoo earning a small percentage on every product your sold as a seller, Why Seataoo need to SCAM other people? It’s a win-win scenario since Seataoo and Seller both earn something on every product they sold on their website.
Still DYOR (do your own research), it’s your money so you’re the one resposible for it and incase you invested make sure it’s only your extra money.
