How Dropshipping Jewelry Supplies Works with Continental Bead Suppliers
(For Sellers Not Using Shopify)
Dropshipping is a powerful way to build or grow a jewelry business without holding inventory, managing storage, or shipping orders yourself. At Continental Bead Suppliers, we support dropshipping in two different ways depending on the platform you use.
Important clarification upfront:
-
If you have a Shopify store, the best and recommended method is to use Shopify Collective
-
If you are not on Shopify, this blog post explains our traditional (manual) dropshipping method
This article is specifically written for non-Shopify sellers.
Shopify Store Owners: Use Shopify Collective (Recommended)
If your store is built on Shopify, the easiest and most automated way to dropship our products is through the Shopify Collective app.
With Shopify Collective:
-
You request access to our products directly inside the app
-
Approved products sync automatically to your Shopify store
-
Orders are routed to us automatically when you make a sale
-
Fulfillment is streamlined with minimal manual steps
➡️ Shopify sellers do not need CSV files or manual uploads.
Not on Shopify? Use Our Traditional Dropshipping Method
If you sell on Etsy, your own website, Facebook Marketplace, Instagram, or another non-Shopify platform, our traditional dropshipping method is the best option.
This method is manual by design and gives you full flexibility over where and how you sell.
Do You Provide a CSV File of Your Products?
Yes — a CSV file is available upon request.
If you would like a CSV of our products, please contact us at:
We’ll be happy to email a CSV file to you.
That said, many sellers prefer to manually select and upload only the products they want to sell, which allows for better control over product selection, pricing, and listings.
How to Save Our Product Images (Manual Method)
If you are uploading products manually, follow these steps:
-
Open the product page on our website
-
Right-click on the product image
-
Select “Save Image As…”
-
Save the image to your computer
-
Upload the image to your selling platform
Repeat this process for any additional product images you want to use.
How to Use Our Descriptions & Pricing
-
Copy and paste our product descriptions directly from the product page
-
Copy the pricing information and enter it into your selling platform
-
Adjust pricing as needed for your business
All product details are entered manually into your selling platform unless you are using Shopify Collective.
What Happens After You Make a Sale
When a customer purchases from you:
-
Go to our website and place an order for the same product
-
Enter your customer’s shipping address at checkout
-
In the order notes, write:
“This is a dropship.”
This note is essential—it alerts our fulfillment team to process the order correctly.
White-Label Fulfillment (Your Brand, Not Ours)
For all dropship orders:
-
We create a custom shipping label using your business name and return address
-
The order ships directly to your customer
-
No Continental Bead Suppliers branding, invoices, or identifying materials are included inside the package
From your customer’s perspective, the order appears to ship directly from you.
