Now, one of the things that makes jewelry such a lucrative business is the fact that pretty much everyone loves jewelry. Whether you're a man or a woman, young or old, most people absolutely love receiving jewelry and ultimately, jewelry is a great gift to give as well. It also comes in a variety of shapes, sizes and prices.

Let me know what you found most interesting or most informative and I'll go ahead and make sure to reply back to your comment with access to the cheat sheet. When choosing the supplier that you wanna work with and source your products from, there's a few things that you need to keep in mind. For one, always make sure that they have a wide variation of products. In this case, jewelry. So make sure that they have different pieces, different styles, different colors, different types of metals, different materials. There's a bunch of different variations when it comes to jewelry. So make sure that you choose a supplier that has a little bit of everything. Also, you always wanna make sure, especially when it comes to jewelry that all of these products are high quality. You don't wanna be selling low quality items, especially in the jewelry niche because some of the lower quality items, especially in the jewelry niche can potentially start deteriorating faster. Sometimes they change color, sometimes they can warp, sometimes they can break easier. It's best to go with a supplier that has proven high quality items. You also have to always make sure that the supplier that you decide to go with has global warehouses. Remember that people don't like waiting more than one to two weeks for their products. So choosing a supplier with local warehouses in the area that you're gonna be selling is crucial. You also always wanna make sure that the supplier that you end up going with has great customer service. Remember that as a drop shipper, ultimately whenever we receive a question or concern from our customers, we have to relay that information to our suppliers and then wait for them to get back to us. That's why it's crucial to select a supplier that has great and prompt customer service. Now, how can you verify most of these things by just looking for your suppliers online? Well, that's fairly simple. All you have to do is start looking at the reviews, look at their product reviews, look at the reviews on their websites and look at the reviews of their websites. So you can check out different review websites like trustpilot.com and see what the rating is on there. See what people are saying about them and see how many reviews they have. It's important to find a supplier with multiple reviews so that way you can get a better idea of how they work and how their quality and customer services. So as we mentioned earlier, there are two different types of suppliers when it comes to the jewelry business. We're going to have our retail suppliers and our wholesale suppliers. In this video, we're going to be covering both, but here's a quick idea of what the difference is between a retail and a wholesale supplier. For one, a retail supplier sells pretty much directly to the end consumer while a wholesale supplier sells to the retailers that are going to be selling to the consumer. So technically as a drop shipper, we ourselves are going to be retailers. For the most part, wholesalers are going to be a bit more drop ship friendly than the retailers are because of the different services that they provide. A lot of the times wholesalers are going to have a better pricing. They're going to have more wholesale pricing, but ultimately in the jewelry niche, you can use both a retailer and a wholesale to drop ship. Okay, so let's go ahead and begin with our list of the best jewelry suppliers to start dropshipping from. And to start, we're going to go ahead and start off with the retail suppliers. Now I'm going to go over these fairly quick. I'm going to try to keep each one of these to under one minute because if I do anything longer than that, this video is going to be over an hour long. But if you do want any more detail on any of these suppliers that I'm going to mention in this video, you can check out the cheat sheet that I talked about earlier. Or I'm also going to have a link to a relevant article in the description below. All right, so kicking off our list at number one, we have none other than AliExpress. AliExpress, as we all know, has tons of items. And when it comes to the jewelry niche, there's no shortage. AliExpress also has a drop ship center, which helps you find a variety of products based on different filters that you set. Here you can find a variety of products that have proven to sell in the past. Overall, AliExpress is a very business friendly platform that's perfect for drop shipping.

No questions asked. Next up in our fourth spot, we have Etsy. Now Etsy is a fantastic option to start sourcing our products from because they have a huge selection of handmade jewelry items. Now people absolutely love handmade items because they're custom, unique and ultimately they're supporting local artists and small businesses. Also, when you're selling handmade or custom jewelry pieces, you have the potential for a higher profit margin because people pay more for that. Coming up next in our fifth spot, we have eBay. Now eBay is a huge company with tons of different sellers on there. So there's always going to be something new to be able to offer. You also have the ability to ship worldwide seeing as how most of the sellers on eBay are based around the entire world. They also have some absolutely amazing customer support and a buyer seller protection program. So if there's ever any issues with your order or with your customer's order, you can always reach out to eBay and they'll help you out. eBay also makes it super simple to be able to spine your competition by just simply looking at other stores listings. Also, you can see what items have sold in a particular category and what price they sold for. Next up in our sixth spot, we have Target. And one thing I can say about Target is that everyone loves Target. Target ships globally. They have super high quality items. They have great customer service. And best of all, they have membership perks. Now Target has over 45 warehouses worldwide. So shipping is never gonna be a problem. You're always gonna have fairly quick shipping. Also, if you order over $35, you're gonna qualify for free two-day shipping. They also offer an awesome 90-day return policy. So if there's any issues within that time period, you can always return your items and get your money back. On top of that, Target also has the red card membership program, which gives you up to a 5% discount on the different products. In our number seven spot, we have Walmart. Walmart has a wide variety of fairly priced jewelry items. On top of that, they always have some sort of deal or discount going on. So you can always get a bit extra boost in your profits. They also have their awesome price match guarantee, which guarantees that you're always gonna get the best possible price for your item. So if you make a purchase, let's say today for $25 for a set of earrings, and tomorrow it comes down to $20, you can contact Walmart and they'll refund you the difference, which would be an extra $5 in your pocket, which translates to an extra $5 in profit. In our number eight spot, we have Pure Pearls. Now, as the name states, Pure Pearls focuses primarily on pearls on different jewelry pieces. They offer some pretty unique pearl pieces ranging from necklaces, rings, earrings, and more. They also have free two-day shipping within the US. They also offer a flexible 90-day return policy. So if within that time period, anything is wrong with the product that your customer received, you can return it with no issues at all. In our last spot for retail jewelry suppliers, coming in at number nine, we have One Necklace Jewelry. Now, an awesome thing about One Necklace Jewelry is the fact that you can personalize all of their pieces. So if you wanna have a name engraved into, let's say a ring or a necklace, you're able to do so. Remember that being able to personalize or customize any piece of jewelry usually translates to higher profits because people are willing to pay a bit more for that. On top of that, they also have free worldwide shipping so you can reach a broader market. All right, so we covered all of the retail suppliers. Now let's go ahead and start talking about the wholesale suppliers. And coming up in our first spot is CJ Dropshipping. Now, CJ Dropshipping has a wide variety of items, but one of the best things about them is the fact that they have the product sourcing solutions. So if there's a jewelry piece that you wanna be able to offer, but you can't find it on CJ Dropshipping, you can go ahead and request to have that added. They also offer print on demand services for certain jewelry pieces. So you can offer custom pieces as well. Along with the print on demand, they also offer private labeling services. With private labeling, you're able to add your custom labels or your brand to your packaging. So that really helps increase brand awareness. In our second spot with a very wide variety of products, we have DHgate. They have a wide variety of high quality and competitively priced jewelry products. They also have 16 different warehouses in different countries, and about 60% of their products are ready to ship to the US and European markets. Up next in our third spot, we have Alibaba. Now Alibaba has some very high quality jewelry products on their website. Now, one unique feature about Alibaba is they have a seller verification program. This guarantees that the sellers you're gonna be purchasing from are indeed wholesale suppliers. Alibaba makes sure that the suppliers that you're purchasing from, that they're all legit and have everything in order to be able to provide you with the best products, best shipping and best wholesale prices. They also offer private label services so you can start increasing brand awareness with custom packaging. In our fourth spot, we have Brands Gateway. Now Brands Gateway is an awesome choice if you wanna start dropshipping luxurious items. When you start offering luxury high ticket items, you pave the way for higher profit margins. Brands Gateway also offers its dropshippers, some SEO and marketing templates, so that way it's easier to optimize your listings on your website. They also offer a wide variety of payment methods, including credit cards, PayPal and bank transfers. Now there is a fee associated to using Brands Gateway. If you do decide to use Brands Gateway as your dropshipping supplier for luxury items, you are gonna be looking at a fee of about $350 per month to be able to use your platform to source your items. Now that fee can be lowered if you opt in for the yearly plan, but that's just something to keep in mind. In our fourth spot, we have a pretty unique supplier called Piercebody. Piercebody focuses primarily on piercings and body jewelry. Piercebody has some pretty unique pieces that you're not gonna be finding at other suppliers and they're all fairly reasonably priced. On top of that, they have a pretty high-tech factory so all of the products that you're gonna be sourcing from them are gonna be high quality. And when it comes to piercings, you always wanna make sure that you have some pretty high-quality products because remember that these items are actually gonna be going either inside or through your body, so always try to source the best materials or products to avoid any issues down the road. Now you can purchase from them, both retail and wholesale. Retail has no minimum, but wholesale does have a minimum of $200. When it comes to minimums though, remember that you can always easily start to overcome those by offering bundles or sets to increase your average order value and reach that minimum. In our number six spot, we have House of Jewelry. Now House of Jewelry has some pretty high-quality items. They offer diamonds, carrot gold, sterling silver, and more. With a wholesale account on House of Jewelry, you have access to real-time inventory updates on your seller dashboard on their website. Now this is really handy because it helps make sure that you never run out of your best sellers and if you do, you know that you need to mark it as sold out on your website. House of Jewelry does have a minimum to order of $150. Next up at number seven, we have Ruby Imports. Ruby Imports has an extensive collection of unique pieces. They also offer jewelry sets which makes it a lot easier to reach your minimum order quantity of $50, which in itself isn't that much. In terms of jewelry, they offer a bunch of different products. They have necklaces, earrings, watches, and they also have some unique pieces in terms of brooches and bag chains. Ruby Imports also has some fantastic customer service and some really great deals and discounts. They have some clearance items up to 75% off that can help us bring in some higher profits. In our number eight spot with a wide variety of products, we have Richard Cannon Jewelry. Richard Cannon does charge a $30 a month fee to be able to use our wholesale and dropshipping program, but their website is tailored for dropshippers. Regardless of your selling on either eBay, Shopify, Amazon, or WooCommerce or a few others, Richard Cannon easily integrates with those platforms to get started selling faster. They also offer jewelry customization, which we all know brings in higher profits because people are gonna pay more for that and gives us access to more unique product choices. Coming up in our ninth spot, we have Silver Bean, which specializes in silver jewelry wholesale. Silver Bean offers a wide variety of high quality items ranging from necklaces, rings, earrings, bracelets, and more. They also easily integrate into multiple selling platforms and have a wide variety of shipping options. You have the option to use USPS, E-Packet, DHL, and a few other couriers to be able to ship your products worldwide. These products primarily ship from China. In our tenth spot, we have Top Pearl. Now, Top Pearl focuses primarily on pearls on different jewelry items. You can get pearls on necklaces, earrings, brooches, and more. Top Pearl doesn't have any minimum order quantity, so if you need to order just one, then you can do that. Top Pearl also offers different branding solutions to help you increase your brand visibility, and when your customer receives their order, there's not gonna be a trace of your supplier or Top Pearl on there. The customer is not gonna know that you source your items from somebody else. Amongst the top jewelry suppliers, coming in at number 11, we have Jay Gooden. Jay Gooden has some premium jewelry products that include Cubics or Conyas, Stainless Steel, Sterling Silver, Rodeum Plated Jewelry, and more. They also have daily product updates, so you're gonna know the moment a new product hits their website. Typically, their products are gonna ship within 24 hours in secured packaging. Now, having such high ticket items, such as jewelry, it's crucial that you have secure packaging so nothing happens in transit to your customer. In our 12th spot, we have MMA Silver. Now, contrary to the name, they don't just focus on silver products. They have a vast product catalog of golden silver chains, rings, necklaces, and more. MMA Silver also manufactures their own products, so you're gonna be getting factory direct prices so that you can price your products more competitively. Now, when it comes to shipping, they offer some fairly quick worldwide shipping using either USPS or FedEx. In our 13th spot, we have Danforth Pewter. Now, Danforth is probably one of my favorite jewelry suppliers in this entire list. And the reason I say that is because the majority of their items are made by hand. They have some exceptional quality items. They employ local professionally trained craftsmen to produce the elegant metal jewelry. On top of that, since their products are made by hand, they're also able to offer customization services in terms of engraving. Now, with such an extensive list of jewelry suppliers, also comes an extensive list of products. Next thing that we have to do is start uploading all of these products to our stores. Now, we can do that manually and that's gonna take quite some time. So it's best if we just automate the entire thing and use Autodesk's product importer to start importing all the different products to get up and running as quick as possible. The easiest way to do this is gonna be by just going to our Autodesk platform, going to add products and adding multiple products. Here, all we have to do is add in all the different URLs for the different products that we wanna import and add as draft. And that's it, where we can edit and optimize all of the different titles and descriptions. Once we have our stores filled with our winning jewelry items, the next thing that we're gonna have to start thinking about is how we're gonna start fulfilling our orders as they start coming in. And the easiest way to do this is by automating the entire process using Autodesk. While yes, you can do it manually, as more and more orders start coming in, it's gonna start to get very time consuming. In that case, our best bet is gonna be to automate the entire order fulfillment process using automatic orders or fulfilled by Autodesk. In both cases, what's gonna start happening is Autodesk is gonna take the order that comes in from your store and it's gonna place it directly with your supplier and fulfill the entire thing. Now, the way that's done can vary based on the method that you choose, whether it be fulfilled by Autodesk or automatic orders. Automatic orders are gonna use your own buyer accounts to place the orders on the supplier's websites. So Autodesk is gonna be placing the order on your behalf with your account using your credit card details. Whereas with fulfilled by Autodesk, what's gonna end up happening is Autodesk is gonna place the order with the supplier with our own buyer accounts, not yours, using a balance that you top up that's used to make these purchases in particular. After the order is placed, Autodesk will take the tracking number and update your customer with it. And at any point during the process, if you wanna check the status on any of the orders, then you can just go on over to the orders tab on the Autodesk platform and see what's going on there with all of the different orders that have been placed. Ultimately, Autodesk can automate your entire business and save you a ton of time that you can reinvest back into your business to continue scaling. Our platform makes it a lot easier for you to focus your time on more important things such as either scaling your business or spending some much needed time with the family and just kicking back and relaxing.
