No storage, No Handling For physical products, you need to keep an inventory, some extra stock, or even at times when you don't keep extra inventory; you still have to store the product for some time.

So you don't have to worry about anything, least of all, inventory. No shipment costs How many times do physical producers have to run go, god knows how many different shipping methods.
