Neither Amazon FBA or dropshipping is better than each other. Amazon FBA requires shipping large quantities of a product to Amazon fulfillment center (warehouse), if it sales, your profit and if it doesn't sale, your loss! When you're dropshipping, you don't need to pre-purchase large quantities of a product, you only pay your supplier to ship the product to your customer when you get an order, so the risk of losing money is less with dropshipping compared to Amazon FBA. This is why we recommend dropshipping as a fulfillment model for starting an ecommerce business with low capital and risk of loss. You can even dropship on Amazon as an FBM seller. Once you've validated your business strategy and your dropshipping store becomes steadily profitable, we advice scaling your store to an e-commerce inventory. You can do this by using a 3pl or Amazon FBA program or both!
