The Monster Market Dropshipping Process...

1 - SETUP YOUR TRADING PLATFORM

Now, you may already have an online shop which makes things easier to get started... As long as you can upload product details to your existing online shop including a product name, description, price and imagery then you will be fine. Within a very short space of time you will be able to supplement your existing shop with Monster Market's great products.

If however, you need an online shop, we've partnered with ecommerce experts, Tiger Commerce, and recommend that you use their online shop platform if you don't already have one or if you want to upgrade from an existing ecommerce solution. Click here for more information...

If you'd rather use a 'marketplace' such as eBay or Amazon to sell Monster Market products, then that's fine also. Each marketplace has its own advantages and disadvantages but all basically work on similar principles. By listing your products on these marketplaces, you will benefit from their marketing channels and consumer popularity. You will need to setup an account, if you don't already have one, and then submit your products onto the marketplace controlling parameters such as price, quantity and delivery. Note that you will be charged listing fees and you don't get the full control you would from your own online shop.

Whether you decide to sell from your own online shop or via marketplaces, Monster Market will carry out dropshipping (delivery of goods etc) directly to the customer. You don't have to stock or deliver - we do that for you.

2 - CHOOSE YOUR PRODUCTS 

Monster Market has thousands of products available for you to sell - from electricals, to homeware, to clothing, to sports goods to children's products. Why not take a look through the products listed in this shop now? You will get a feel for the profit that you can make for selling each and every product. However, note you will only get acess to the full product data (including prices) for upload into to your shop or marketplace when you have paid for the Monster Market License...

In order to sell any of these products (as many as you wish!) you will need to register as a member and pay a small licence fee of £75 to get access to the data relevant to your chosen products. This 'Monster Market License' gives you the right to sell the products in association with Monster Market for a full 3 months with no additional charges.

3 - START SELLING & GET PAID

So, after you've chosen your shop or marketplace solution (stage 1) and chosen your products (stage 2), you're ready to start selling and making some money.

If you are running your own online shop, you will need to put time into marketing it and gaining visibility in the search engines to ensure that customers come to your site. The success of your home business will depend on how much time and effort you are prepared to put into marketing your shop.

There are a number of different tools you can use – search engine optimisation, paid search or Pay-Per-Click (PPC) marketing and social media marketing. You will need to put in the time to understand and use these different channels if you do not have expertise in these areas. Alternatively, you can contact us for assistance in these areas.

If you are using a marketplace to sell your products, you can rely on them to do the marketing legwork! All you need to do is follow the listing procedures to get your products onto their sites and sit back and let them get on with it. Remember, however, that you might want to adjust pricing to be competitive in these marketplaces (this will impact on your commissions).

You need to tell us when you've sold an item and would like it despatched to your customer. 

To do this, locate the item that you have sold in the Monster Market shop and then simply purchase it as you would normally purchase any other item from an online shop, but following these important steps:

1) Find the item(s) that you have sold in the Monster Market shop.
2) Add the item(s) to the shopping cart.
3) Go to the Basket and / or click Checkout.
4) Log in to your account using the details sent to you by Monster Market when you purchased your license.
5) After login click 'Add / Manage Address(es)' against Delivery Address and then enter your new Customer's Name and Delivery Address.
6) Finally, confirm payment to complete the order.

After the funds have cleared for the item, we will dropship the items as normal to your customer. All orders are dispatched within 2 working days.

This way of working allows you to concentrate on promoting your products and getting those sales in. We do the leg work for you and remove all the costs and hassle associated with delivery i.e. stock, warehousing, delivery etc. The delivery costs are included in the product prices.

NOTE: For every order made on the Monster Market website, a small Order Processing Fee is applied. Monster Market uses a network of wholesale suppliers and this fee is to cover the cost of placing orders with them, dealing with any returns, if any, and offering alternative products when products are out of stock or awaiting stock on the Monster Market customer's behalf.

The good news is that your earnings aren't capped by anything or anyone. The amount you earn is proportionate to the time and effort you invest into promoting your products and the number of products you are selling. Just to help give you some idea on your potential earnings, look at the examples here.

When you place your orders on behalf of your customers through this Monster Market website, you will only pay the trade price and therefore your commission will be included in your shop / marketplace receipts.
