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!
I was shocked at how short this video was when I checked after it ended. I feel like you covered everything the last 10 videos I watched covered and also in so much more detail.
Out of hundreds of videos that I have watched to do with Dropshipping I like yours the best because you have mentioned things that no one else has mentioned
New suscriber here 😊 I’m starting as well the journey of Dropshipping. Please keep doing a great job quality content like this. I think you are one the most straightforward and honest for explaining this business model. I wish you as well a successful business.
hello, boss. I am a dropshipping supplier from China, I can help you deliver the goods to your all customer,no MOQ, low price, fast delivery, Automated ERP system management and solve your warehouse storage problems
Subscribed, you seem legit. One suggestion for people who want to start an online business, find channels like this one, take the time to watch them, and avoid the scamy ones. Don't waste your time on promises. And yes, online businesses take time, no weeks, no months.
I’ve been researching for a few months now and have even considered taking expensive courses until today when your video showed up in my feed, which I feel is a sign. I will take your advice and continue to follow you because I am on the same journey of success drop shipping! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and also your journey with us! ♥️
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.
Guys I have issue in shopify payment method how can I use stripe or any payment method, they need official account, so how can I use a payment method without open official brand license?
If you stay consistent this channel will explode. Very digestible content-delivery and very genuine approach. Reminds me of Biaheza! Im trying to explore side hustles so im subbed fo sho.
Your tips are spot on! Managing tracking updates and late deliveries used to take up so much of my time. Found a tool that automated this, and I’ve saved hours. Who else struggles with this?
I subscribed 2 minutes in. Thanks for the great content. Very informative. Please keep doing videos like this, condensing a bunch of content into one video.
evergreen, High aov, great offer, problem solving product, understand facebook tool (you should learn from top 1% media buyer), business mindset, testing every week,... Always think how to build stable business around this prodcut or niche!!
Great VDO. Short and easy to understanding. Please extend your explanation how to in detail in each topic ( ie. More tools to find products , TT Ads in detail , the best Supplier for dropship ..etc. Thank you in advance.
i like the way that you're not trying to leech off your viewers by promoting some website you have gained my sub i will continue to watch your content and maybe learn something. 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.
Appreciate your time to make it easier to pick the point. I have spent so many years and still trying to gain more information for fba and dropship while on fulltime job. Thank you
I want to start drop shipping but don't know anything i look more than 100 videos only for drop shipping in the end get disappointed because they selling course Finally i found this video with good information thanks 🙏
You are super awesome! new sub here, I had to subscribe yes or yes after just 3 minutes or less great info here!!! thank you! you deserve every single sub you have and many many more! much success to you

Amazing video. I have a dream alongwith you - to succeed in dropshipping till mid 2025 😅 1 doubt: So that ad creating agency creates ads for already viral tik tok products that we choose or it can create ad videos of our chosen or bought products? How does it work?
Yes, will be doing one in the next months. I had some issues with the suppliers and had some of the sample product stuck in custom and never got them! 😔
Hi..! I am from Dubai so how I setup payment gateways in USA so I will be able to use shopify payments..! Low budget..! Could you also add a video for google ads..!
Do you feel like drop shipping is still a viable business model? The market is super saturated and people is starting to catch on. I feel like selling your products on the TikTok shop seems like a better way to go
I think everything is viable but just need to find the working strategy or niche. We need to adapt as the market changes. Same with Amazon. Right now, I’m testing different dropshipping strategies.
@@youdig-detection yeah, that’s one thing many drop shippers do not talk about. SEO probably only comes into play when we have found a viable product to optimize on.
@@ApprenticeDiary i used the bonus given by the ads company i know that tiktok for exemple was giving half of what you spent , and i used a google coupon to pay only 500 euros and on 1000 euros credits ( it lasted one month ) , i just tried facebook and google ads ( most sucessfull was google shopping and pmax shopping) . it's a pain to install pixel on shopify and tracking for those ads company . Google is really tempering the result , my campaign got flagged at the start because i was using an existing domain name that got sandboxed... i could make it run with pmax shopping only i never had better result than when my website was flagged by google after speaking with a rep to unlock it , it lasted 1 week and become crap afterward.
I saw that you should run a creative for about three days to test and if no good result, then you should test with other creatives. 3-4 creatives at a time to compare and turn off the ones that suck
What?! That’s interesting since HK is literally in China and Tik tok is technically a Chinese company, right? Hmm… don’t remember if they have to use VPN. I thought their network is open
I'm in the process of trying to run paid ads on TikTok, Did you have to get all needed license's before you got your account approved because im running into that issue.
Just saw your video and really it was short and sweet and up to the mark, and cleared so many confusions. Still I am exploring this DS sector and hope to have your guidance in this regard as well 😀, Wish you all the very best !!!!
@@ApprenticeDiary could you actually cover how you go about managing all the new credit cards you open, old one that you won't use anymore because the bonuses or promotions are over, and how does this tie in with your personal credit score? Adjacent to that, is it possible to cover explaining business expenses to the feds? Kind belief it's difficult to explain a lot of random purchases that seems to be personal expenses
Also been looking to start my dropshipping/e-commerce journey, but i am struggling on understanding the legal issues that could come such as having an llc, taxes and etc, would appreciate it if anyone could help
Best person to ask is consulting with a business lawyer and a CPA. That's how I learn by talking with a bunch of them while I decide if I want to go with them.
I have issue in shopify payment method how can I use stripe or any payment method, they need official account, so how can I use a payment method without open official brand license?
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?
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.
hello, boss. I am a dropshipping supplier from China, I can help you deliver the goods to your all customer,no MOQ, low price, fast delivery, Automated ERP system management and solve your warehouse storage problems
@@ApprenticeDiary Dropshipping. Tbh i didn't have enough money to run the ads properly. Now I am broke af. But dropshpping is not dead. I able to get some orders but that was unprofitable.
Have you tried organic marketing? Try perfecting your viral content and see if you could get some following and sales that way. Build up the cash and then test ads again using your best performing organic content
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.
@@ApprenticeDiary Quanity definitely comes with quality I feel like 3 is still more than enough for quantity to help with the quality. I found one product that I plan to drop ship and also cross reference to my gaming channel
there is no evil but everyone saying is easy or not demonstrating the hard work you need to commit yourself for personal gain is very very very sad.....
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..
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.
@@ApprenticeDiary Can you make a video about the best side hustles to work in? Since dropshipping isn’t ideal for newbies due to its higher risk, could you recommend something that’s low risk, especially for someone who’s 17 years old like me?
@@memegod1351 I already have a low risk one about making an extra $1000/mo but can be scaled to 10k/mo if you actually add tons of Amazon product reviews. I will be trying others out and will keep documenting what I learned
If you have tried dropshipping, would love to hear your experience on it or any tips for us to try!

Hello I have questions….. how can I reach you thanks 🙏
Feel free to ask general questions here as it might help others. If it’s specific, feel free to dm on instagram
Hi I'm from Africa how can i get in on this? I would really appreciate it
Im not sure about this. Maybe someone else might have better answer.
Till date i watch 5000 ds videos. I tried and failed 3 times now I don't have any money to start again. Lol
What did you do?
@@ApprenticeDiary Dropshipping. Tbh i didn't have enough money to run the ads properly. Now I am broke af. But dropshpping is not dead. I able to get some orders but that was unprofitable.
Have you tried organic marketing? Try perfecting your viral content and see if you could get some following and sales that way. Build up the cash and then test ads again using your best performing organic content
@@ApprenticeDiary Now I have no other way except trying organic. My tiktok is been shadow baned. But instagram is doing well but it will take time.
Learn about organic trafic
Can I post more than 3 tik toks ? i cross share them to ig and YT so if I make 5 tik toks that’s 15 a day instead of 9 almost double.
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.
@@ApprenticeDiary Quanity definitely comes with quality I feel like 3 is still more than enough for quantity to help with the quality. I found one product that I plan to drop ship and also cross reference to my gaming channel
@@AM-bz2qx nice! Would love to hear more about the results you are getting from yt and TikTok
I want to learn dropshipping, can you help or teach me please?
straight game no bullshit
Thanks!
If this is your strategy after watching 100+ videos it’s very poor.
Feel free to share your thoughts on what’s the best strategy. We are all still learning :)
only 100 those are rookie numbers
Yeah, rookie here 🤣. Only one month in the game.
now everyone is making this videos just to get money from affiliate shopify or zendrop or some shit that you said... Sad
there is no evil but everyone saying is easy or not demonstrating the hard work you need to commit yourself for personal gain is very very very sad.....
I’m actually testing this. Will be posting updates as I go. Thanks for feedback
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..
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.
You still need to learn more yourself
For sure! This is part of documenting my journey
You're not a guru, right? :(
Just started like a month ago 🤣 I will rather be a guide than a guru. Just documenting my learning process step by step
@@ApprenticeDiary Can you make a video about the best side hustles to work in? Since dropshipping isn’t ideal for newbies due to its higher risk, could you recommend something that’s low risk, especially for someone who’s 17 years old like me?
@@memegod1351 I already have a low risk one about making an extra $1000/mo but can be scaled to 10k/mo if you actually add tons of Amazon product reviews. I will be trying others out and will keep documenting what I learned
@@ApprenticeDiary Thank you, and i will watch it.
I need job please I can work with you personally
Give me basic salary in USD months
Sorry, I am not hiring now
i like you
Thanks :)!
Selling cheap Chinese crap.
You could sell high quality stuff if you want. Depends on what you want to build
Just like 40% of the stuff you own
Marry me.
Please continue being legit. So many scammers trying to make money off people lying.
