Supplier comparison sheet
From the lesson Dropshipping
Work through each step on paper or on screen. Use a real business, a project of your own or a friend’s idea. Keep this page for your portfolio.
1List three possible suppliers for a product.
2Compare price, shipping time and quality.
3Complete the supplier comparison sheet.
Worked example to compare with: Comparing two suppliers
- Supplier A: $8 per unit, ships in 3 days, good packaging, sample arrived undamaged.
- Supplier B: $6 per unit, ships in 18 days, sample arrived late and scratched.
- Selling price: $19.
- Profit before ads: A is $11 per sale, B is $13, but B risks refunds and bad reviews.
- Decision: choose A. A two-dollar saving is not worth slow delivery and returns.
