I've been drop shipping for 4 years now, over 5 million in sales in that time. It's definitely an easy way to go where anyone can really make money online if you never made a dime online before. Outsourcing 99% of it by hiring virtual assistants is the best way to go once you get the hang of it all and know how to train them. I'm paying as little as $2.50/hr to my assistants in the Philippines but is worth much more to them there.
