If you are not manufacturing your own products, you will have to outsource your products. You can do this in two ways, one, you design the prototype find a manufacturer ask them to produce products for you; and two, you procure products from the manufacturer or supplier, add your mark up profits and resell those products. For the second option, how do you actually choose what products to sell?

You need to choose the products wisely because if you try to sell wrong products, you will not make profit. Here are some tips.

Choose the products that are not saturated in the market. In other words, a lot of sellers must not be selling the same product.

Choose the products that give you enough profit margins.

Choose the products that actually adds value to people’s lives

Choose the products that will be appropriate for your target market.

Choose products that are in demand but not in much supply.
 
Thank you very much for sharing, all the things you mentioned above is exactly the truth and this will help so many business owners to make the best decision when thinking of establishing a company or business . But the reality is that getting products like this will be very difficult.

The reason is because there are so many business owners that have dealt with most of these products already and even if you have to establish a business or establish a company , You must put so many things into consideration you cannot just start up a business just because the area of the business is not saturated. The reality is that you do not need unsaturation to start most business , some business is something that can be done based on the demands of the people and that is what must be put into consideration when thinking of establishing a business.

You can sell two different kinds of products, one by sourcing from other businesses, suppliers, or manufacturers, and two, by manufacturing yourself. For a lot of people, the second option looks complicated, therefore, they go with the first method. When you are sourcing products, you need to make sure of a couple of things. First of all the products need to be cheaper. If your cost price is expensive, it will be difficult to sell and generate enough profit margin. Secondly, the supplier needs to be reliable and shipping much be fast. Thirdly, the products need to be of high quality. Fourthly, the products you are sourcing must be in demand in the market where you are selling. You can also sell completely new products, but for these products, you need to work hard on branding and introducing the products to the target market. If you have a good marketing plan, it will be easier to sell.
