What’s A Good Dropshipping Profit Margin (And How to Improve It)
  • A gross profit margin of 30-40% is considered favorable for most dropshippers.
  • A net profit margin of around 15-20% is a strong benchmark.
  • Gross Profit = Total Revenue - COGS
  • Gross Profit Margin = (Gross Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100%
  • Gross Profit = $50,000 - $20,000 = $30,000
  • Gross Profit Margin = ($30,000 ÷ $50,000) × 100% = 60%
  • Net Profit = Total Revenue - COGS - Other Expenses
  • Net Profit Margin = (Net Profit ÷ Revenue) × 100%
  • Net Profit = $50,000 - $30,000 - $10,000 = $10,000
  • Net Profit Margin = ($10,000 ÷ $50,000) × 100% = 20%
