New opportunity for dropshipping
Thanks to Covid and the Internet, people's shopping habit has completely changed now, and another significant reason why dropshipping is still thriving is that it is so flexible that can integrate with new trends easily.
One of the amazing new opportunities for now is, how dropshipping is merging with viral social media platforms. You probably heard about the TikTok dropshipping model, by using TikTok, dropshippers can either get access to the massive free traffic on TikTok by having their channel to do marketing or utilize ads and influencers to promote their products, online stores, and brands to a huge audience group.

Just think about the one billion monthly active users on TikTok and over 173 million first-time installs on the app store in the Q4 of last year. What's more uplifting, like Shopify, TikTok is exploring more partnership programs with different platforms like Square, Wix, PrestaShop and so much more.

Dropshipping Challenges in 2022
Of course, some challenges are awaiting as well in 2022, since now more and more dropshippers are expanding their business, you might think that is there too much competition? To be honest, this depends on where you are putting your attention to.
First of all, the growing dropshipping market not only reveals more players in the game but also the increasing demand from the customers.

Second thing is that you need to focus more on optimizing your business, like finding a good product but not simply testing loads of products at a time and waiting to see which one hits the point.
Also, you want to improve the product pages and creatives with good-quality copywriting, pictures, and videos but not listing what has already been used thousands of times on the Internet. Remember the customers will eventually turn to sellers who create real value.
Another challenge of this year is order processing, to be more specific, the supply chain is on a higher level of variability now. The heightened inflationary pressures, international conflicts, and slowdown in transition, all of these issues hold order processing back. However, you may also find that more suppliers are working on setting up local warehouses to shorten the processing time.
