One-piece delivery model mainly solves the problem of cross-border sellers who do not have the ability to establish warehousing to sell products. After the seller signs a contract from a third-party manufacturer or wholesaler, the third-party logistics will ship the goods directly to the terminal buyer. In a delivery model, sellers only need to be responsible for selling as distributors, earning the price difference, and displaying products in online stores. Consumers do not have to bear various fixed costs such as manpower and venues after placing an order.

3. What are the disadvantages of the one-piece delivery mode?
1, low profit
Because the indirect cost of a delivery model product is very low, the corresponding seller has a low threshold for entering a delivery model, and the entire industry is fiercely competitive, so it is difficult for sellers to stand out in large markets. At the same time, fierce competition has also led to a widespread price war, and many sellers will sell at the lowest price because they are unwilling to bear fixed costs such as inventory. Benefit refers to the difference between the price paid by the buyer and the price charged by the seller by the agent. Therefore, fierce competition between each other causes the profits of the entire industry to be compressed. The decline in profitability has also affected the seller's late advertising marketing speed and market expansion to a certain extent.
2. There is transportation risk
Because it is a third-party logistics agency shipment, in the actual operation, sellers will inevitably encounter emergencies in cooperation with suppliers.For example, many suppliers need to meet the needs of multiple downstream sellers, so inventory volumes will change in real time. If the real-time inventory volume is not known by downstream sellers in time, it may cause buyers to wait for a long time after payment before shipment, thereby reducing the consumer experience.
