The methods of Selling Coffee Online
- Selling coffee on your website
- Drop shipping
- Affiliate marketing
Selling Coffee on your Website
If you have an inventory of coffee and you want to sell it online, you need to set up a website.
Selling a product though your website is not a way to start an online business.
It requires a lot of things that a beginner will be overwhelmed. It can be done but you need to know how to build and run a website.

Drop Shipping
This is a rather complicated online business which will overwhelm a beginner.
You will have to build an ecommerce website by using shopify or other platforms.
You do not need an inventory for this business, you just accept coffee orders from you customers.
You process the billing and once a sale is finalized, you order the product from a Drop Shipper and have it delivered to your customer.
The difference between your selling price and your buying price is your gain.

Selling Coffee Through Affiliate Marketing
For a beginner, selling coffee through affiliate marketing is the best method to trade on this commodity.
You can promote this product through your website by product reviews.
It is a very simplified business, costs very little money to run and fully automated once set up.
Once your website is setup and running and having a decent traffic, it is time to monetize.
Enroll in Amazon Associates and eBay Partner Network and start selling coffee online and make money.
You can then do specific coffee product reviews through your website.
These are the products you may want to feature on your website and these are just samples of specific product reviews you can have on your website.
There are so many coffee products available on Amazon and eBay and remember you do not have to post a lot on your website, just a couple will do.
Once the visitor is on Amazon or eBay through your website, and they changed their mind and bought another big price item you will still get the commission.
Not bad for trying to get a commission for selling coffee but getting a commission for higher price item instead.
Affiliate marketing is cool, isn’t it?
Writing Product Reviews
Here are the samples of the product reviews you will post on your website.

Illy has been my favorite brand of coffee ever since. I am an Espresso Aficionado, in my opinion, I should say, and nothing beats a well-brewed Espresso.
I used to spend a considerable amount of money on Espresso, but then I started saving up when I started brewing at home.
Thanks to the manufacturers who heed our call, the Lowly Coffee Drinkers for finally producing those cheap Espresso Machines suitable for home use.
When I am outside and saw even small coffee shops serving illy, it is still very hard to resist. Well, that’s me, the Lowly Coffee Drinker.

This type of home grade espresso machines and cappuccino maker is the one suitable for home use as it is also a cappuccino maker in one unit.
The other feature I really like for this type of espresso machines is the brew cup.
You can only find this on a professional grade espresso machine which is of course not affordable for home use.
Most compact espresso machines are using cartridges with the same brand as the machine itself.
There are even brands that a particular cartridge will not fit on another model of the same brand. Wow !
How bad is this? Imagine having a particular lovely espresso machine, and here comes your coffee drinking guests and you realized you just run out of cartridges.
What makes it harder is when it is not available in your vicinity, or the cartridge they have is for another brand of an espresso machine.
Lovely. Hope they drink beer, and you have a stock of finger foods.
On this model of an espresso machine, you can use all brand of coffee.
If you run out of your grounds, you can even use that coffee on cartridges, just open it up and pour it into the brew cup. Very practical.
So save yourself some money by brewing at home.

This coffee created a stir in the Western World the first time it was marketed commercially in the Western World.
This coffee is actually produced from coffee cherries eaten by the Asian Palm Civet.
The Civet digested only the fleshy pulp of the coffee and defecated the beans.
The farmers then collected the beans, washed, roasted and then ground it.
There is a distinct flavor to it; it is smoother maybe because of the lesser acidity it has than regular coffee beans.
I like it when I make a very strong coffee out of it as I will not taste the “sourness” I tasted with other coffee.
Will I make it my daily coffee? No way. It is too expensive for me.
This is good for those coffee lovers who are into exotic kinds of coffee. This coffee is rare and very expensive.

The Training Required Before You Can Start This Business
Before we go further, let’s talk about the requirements before you can sell coffee online and make money.
The first thing is to have your own website and the best way to do this is to join a community of online entrepreneurs willing to help new members.
Why a community? Is training not enough? Sometimes the information available in training is overwhelming for a beginner.
There will be top-notch training, Webinars and Video tutorials but this is not enough.
If the beginner is stuck, the only solution is to go back to the training, read again or watch the Video Tutorials again and again.
What if the beginner cannot absorb the information presented to them?
This point is the time where the community comes in.
The members are an amazing group of people with diverse experience in online business, and they are willing to help you step by step.
Afraid of asking dumb questions? Every member is used to it since most of us started with no knowledge of this kind of business, so to speak.
The questions not asked are the only stupid questions.

Hello Den,
Your website has answered some questions for me about how to make money online. Interesting and informative. Not only about coffee but about how to create other options for online marketing. I am an affiliate of Amazon, and I am happy to be a part of the many diversified products they have.
I wasn’t aware that Amazon had a variety of coffee products also. I am going to investigate your suggestions further. To see if I can incorporate them in my website.
Thanks for your insight and information explained in your post.

This site has given me renewed hope. I have a website about grounds for great coffee, you know it’s a play on the word grounds, anyway I’m sure you get this idea. Anyway, I have this domain/site and I did some initial research on blogs about coffee. Know what? I couldn’t find any, no sorry I found one. One on the entire internet.
Until that is, I found yours. Made my day. So, there may be hope for the old domain
Den says
Hi James,
There are blogs about coffee in the internet. Some even blog about actual selling coffee products on a website. There are a lot of websites selling coffee online. Amazon and eBay are just two of them. My article is about selling coffee online through affiliate marketing.
If you are an affiliate of eBay and Amazon, you have thousands of coffee products you can promote on your website and earn commissions. You don’t even have to stock on coffee. That is the beauty of affiliate marketing.
Thanks for the comments,

Hi Den
I never really thought of affiliate marketing in that way, your idea of selling coffee online, might have sounded a bit off, untiil I read through your article, and I must say that I’m really impressed.
Can you really make a lot of profits online, especially using affiliate marketing to generate enough commissions to live life on your terms?
Because a lot of stores sell coffee, but don’t really make great revenue and returns, how is affiliate marketing different in regards to the “selling coffee” concept?
Den says
Hi!
I do not know where you get the idea of coffee stores not making great revenue. I have a brick and mortar store and coffee is one of the fastest moving item day in and day out. Coffee is the second most traded commodity besides oil.
Once you join a good online affiliate program like Amazon or eBay you have the potential to earn commissions on tons of coffee products they have. A lot of affiliate marketers are earning full time income by doing affiliate marketing only.

Den says
Hi, Sven!
There is a lot of opportunities to make money online. One of them is selling coffee. If you are an affiliate, you do not even need to have coffee stocks. You just be an affiliate of websites that are selling coffee, i.e. Amazon and eBay and just promote their products on your website and earn commissions for every sale made through your affiliate links.

Hello Den,
Thanks for sharing this brilliant post, for me I found the article title sounds strange but when I read the details it’s amazing idea & so simple that it just need to promote the product which is coffee and get commissions. Good way to promote affiliate marketing . Keep up the good work.
Den says
Hi, Ehab!
Affiliate marketing applies to all products, not only coffee. Any product sold online by a website with an affiliate program is a potential money maker for affiliate marketers.

I’m one of those people who like to buy things online as well, but usually not things like coffee though, but I know there are people out there who do buy online. The whole idea of affiliate marketing appeals to me because if you’re good at it, you have a skill that will provide you will passive income for the rest of your life.
No more worries that 99% of the world deals with. Wealthy Affiliate does sound like a good way to go if you’re a beginner who is looking for a good training platform, and I’ve tried to find negative reviews but like you say there aren’t any!
Den says
Hi, Kent!
A lot of websites are selling coffee online. The beauty of affiliate marketing is you do not need to possess the product to sell. You just have to promote other peoples product and earn commissions.
Thanks you for your comments,
Den
Trev says
The idea of selling coffee online applies to selling anything online. If there is a demand for a product then online stores and marketers can capitalise on this.
The title of this article “Can you make money selling Coffee Online?” is really implying you can sell nearly anything you wanted online. However, an understanding of how to get an online presence and position your business in a way which will get your business noticed and products/services seen is really what needs to be learned as well as many other factors to be successful in the online space.
Very good article
Den says
Hi,Trev!

Hey Den,
I’m a coffee drinker myself an I think loads of people would buy coffee online, the market is huge! In fact, I buy my coffee machine online too from Amazon.
Affiliate Marketing has opened doors to many possibilities and one just need to properly match their information based on what people want and when it clicks, so will the money 😀
Den says
Hi, Riaz!
Affiliate marketing is really cool as you do not need to have an inventory of products. Like coffee, you can easily make money selling without the physical product. That is the beauty of affiliate marketing.
