Leah’s Cafe

Met up with a few ex colleagues last week. They were surprised to learn that we have sold the tutoring business. When they learned that I am working mostly online this days, they immediately thought I am running an online store. They kept asking questions on the distribution network of the products and which warehousing service provider is used. Even though I tried to explain, but they got so caught up with the idea of me running an online store, no amount of explanation shed any light. For some people, it’s impossible to make money online unless you own an online store and sell merchandises that require a sophisticated warehousing solutions.

If you are selling physical goods, you would probably use a warehousing service that can fulfill your warehouse and distribution needs. For instance, if you are distributing clothings, you may need climate controlled and protected facilities. Many companies actually outsource this part of their business to the fulfillment solutions experts that have automated warehousing and inventory system that takes care of your products and make sure you will never run out of stocks.
