      Great video. I've been dipping my toe into Dropshipping over the last few months. The main thing I've been "struggling" with in regards to this business is developing a "workflow". For example if you have a personal product then the game is marketing and advertising to sell your product, but with drop shipping you are essentially trying to discover a winning product. Curious if you would be willing to share your day to day work flow.

    From my experiencing in dropshipping. Three things to know. #1 Make sure your supplier is iron clad and will support your business. #2 Avoid dropshipping expensive items or anything that weights over 5lbs. #2 Avoid products that are saturated.

      "Make sure your supplier is iron clad and will support your business."
      I´m an aged experienced entrepreneur and this quote is so true ! I once started an import business in Sweden that grew exponentially. Initially I used a well established "iron clad" purchasing agent from Taiwan that skillfully supported my business to source products such that I could distribute and gain market in Sweden. That worked well for some time while I had low margins and low costs, but eventually I realized that while my infrastructural costs increased as my company rapidly grew the agents high margins prevented me competing successfully with my competitors. Accordingly I founded my own purchasing company in Hong Kong where I hired my own purchasing engineer and shipping clerk and gave them responsibilities for building up my purchasing company. The efficiency in that concept proved to be outstanding as the people I employed in Hong Kong were both reliable and skilled. Therefore I highly recommend to use vertical integration of the business chain for Your business IF You have been able to hire reliable people. The larger part of the vertical integration chain You control and the BETTER You control it the more successful You will be. Note the importance of having good control of that business chain. It´s not easy as it´s difficult to find and keep reliable people ! IMHO.

      If you do textiles or apparel, you might want to look into Biden's recent adjustments to the de minimis exemption for drop shippers to keep more harmful items from being imported. I think the threshold is being lowered, or will no longer apply to clothing. It won't be exempt from some fees and material disclosures now. Then tRump and his tariffs are going to blow up the entire trade system.😢 Hold on tight!

    Content is so good that I had to subscribe immediately. I am doing dropshipping because it will always be viable since people need to buy things. If you can find good products and make your store appealing, you will be really successful. My strategy is to use some product search tools (my favorite is using a little bit of winnerzila. I love how affordable their lifetime plan is, I paid it off on one week). If someone is wondering, my favorite niches are pets and electronics, you can always have good money in these.

    just one question surely you don't just use paid ads and Organic marketing as the only means to reach out. in my personal opinion you have to have more data about the product and users.
    i am not asking to tell us your exact marketing strategy but do tell what kind of sources helped you if any book which one because purchasing mindset changes from generation to generation and a lot of content out there has become obsolete.

    Did you make 6 different websites to test the products individually? And if so wouldn’t that mean you have too make 6 different shopify accounts ?

    I’m also trying the drop-shipping business model. Now, I’m not a graphic designer or have the capital to pay upwards of $500 for someone to build a Shopify store. I’m thinking of dropshipping on Amazon or eBay, since there’s no need to create or market my store. What are your thoughts on that?

    • @ApprenticeDiary
      @ApprenticeDiary  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Do not dropship on Amazon! It’s against their terms and they will figure it out and suspend your account and lock your capital. I haven’t done dropshipping via eBay. Safer to have your own website and drive traffic there but definitely more capital spent for marketing.

      I think it’s better to pace them out so you aren’t overwhelming your audience with a bunch of content. Ppl don’t get to even digest them properly. You could do five a day if you want and see if there is a difference. Quality over quantity.

    Your method is really expensive. You have to pay for a lot of stuff before the business even makes a single dollat. I want to start dropshipping bc I don’t have any money, so I need to know how to start a successful dropshipping business with zero money. If I had a lot of money I would do exactly what you’re saying, which is exactly the same as everybody else pushing paid ads, paid websites, etc on youtube..

    • @ApprenticeDiary
      @ApprenticeDiary  25 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Fair. In that case, i would probably try to make a few $$ first and then do print-on-demand. That's one side hustle that I think require the least amount of capital since you only pay when a user buy. If I were you, I will try selling stuff I dont need on eBay or FB Marketplace and then use that money to do print on demand.
