Content: Physical products
Sell your own physical product or someone else’s. Examples
Books
Handmade goods
Private label goods
Manufactured merchandise
Retail arbitrage
Print on demand (POD)
Dropshipping
Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA)
Conferences or events (I consider these “physical products” because they require in-person involvement)
Pros
There are many helpful resources to get started. For example, How to Build, Launch, and Grow a Profitable Online Store. Many people prefer buying from small businesses instead of large retailers. There are ways to sell physical products without having to touch them yourself through Print on Demand or dropshipping. Cons
Creating or sourcing a physical product takes time, energy and often money. You may need space to maintain inventory. Shipping and returns can be a hassle. Takeaway
With all kinds of helpful tools and services, selling physical products has never been easier but there are more moving parts than other income streams. Unless you have an existing product or a really clear idea for a product, I’d add this income stream later.
