00:00:00 | 00:00:04 | in this video I'm going to cover eat |
00:00:02 | 00:00:09 | things that dropshippers do on eBay that |
00:00:04 | 00:00:11 | make absolutely zero sense hey I'm Paul |
00:00:09 | 00:00:13 | and I'm committed to teaching you the |
00:00:11 | 00:00:16 | exact strategies I use to create |
00:00:13 | 00:00:18 | multiple six-figure businesses on eBay |
00:00:16 | 00:00:20 | and Amazon these are the same methods |
00:00:18 | 00:00:22 | that changed my life and I'm here to |
00:00:20 | 00:00:23 | show you how they can change yours as |
00:00:22 | 00:00:25 | well |
00:00:23 | 00:00:27 | I've been drop shipping on ebay for a |
00:00:25 | 00:00:29 | few years now I have this YouTube |
00:00:27 | 00:00:31 | channel I get to tok to other drop |
00:00:29 | 00:00:34 | shippers every single day so I see |
00:00:31 | 00:00:36 | what's working I see what doesn't work |
00:00:34 | 00:00:38 | and I see what makes absolutely no sense |
00:00:36 | 00:00:40 | which we're going to tok about today |
00:00:38 | 00:00:42 | these are the 8 things I see |
00:00:40 | 00:00:45 | dropshippers doing that make no sense |
00:00:42 | 00:00:48 | and the first one is when dropshippers |
00:00:45 | 00:00:50 | do not use repricing software if your |
00:00:48 | 00:00:53 | drop shipping from let's say Amazon or |
00:00:50 | 00:00:56 | Walmart onto eBay and the price changes |
00:00:53 | 00:00:58 | on Amazon or Walmart where the item goes |
00:00:56 | 00:01:00 | out of stok on one of those websites if |
00:00:58 | 00:01:02 | you're not using the repricing software |
00:01:00 | 00:01:05 | you have to manually check all your |
00:01:02 | 00:01:08 | items and then change the price manually |
00:01:05 | 00:01:11 | or put the item out of stok manually on |
00:01:08 | 00:01:13 | eBay and that just takes so much time |
00:01:11 | 00:01:15 | for all those items and those chances |
00:01:13 | 00:01:18 | are you're going to miss a few of those |
00:01:15 | 00:01:20 | so why wouldn't you use repricing |
00:01:18 | 00:01:23 | software it's available to you it will |
00:01:20 | 00:01:25 | automatikally make those changes for you |
00:01:23 | 00:01:27 | once you set it up it runs automatikally |
00:01:25 | 00:01:29 | in the background and it's pretty |
00:01:27 | 00:01:31 | affordable as well so that's the first |
00:01:29 | 00:01:33 | mistake I see people making they're not |
00:01:31 | 00:01:37 | using that repricing software quite |
00:01:33 | 00:01:39 | frankly 99% of the times you should be |
00:01:37 | 00:01:41 | using it it's a waste of time for you |
00:01:39 | 00:01:44 | not to be using it the second mistake |
00:01:41 | 00:01:46 | that I see eBay dropshipping is that |
00:01:44 | 00:01:49 | they're not using listing software look |
00:01:46 | 00:01:52 | you find an item on Walmart you want to |
00:01:49 | 00:01:53 | list it on eBay well you can copy the |
00:01:52 | 00:01:56 | description and paste it on eBay |
00:01:53 | 00:01:59 | download all the images from Walmart and |
00:01:56 | 00:02:01 | then upload them to eBay or you can use |
00:01:59 | 00:02:04 | a listing software that will do all that |
00:02:01 | 00:02:06 | for you in a second why wouldn't you do |
00:02:04 | 00:02:08 | that even if you're not using the |
00:02:06 | 00:02:09 | reprice er let's say which again I don't |
00:02:08 | 00:02:12 | understand why you wouldn't in most |
00:02:09 | 00:02:14 | cases let's say you're not doing that |
00:02:12 | 00:02:16 | at least use a listing software it |
00:02:14 | 00:02:20 | speeds it up so much faster and I don't |
00:02:16 | 00:02:22 | see any benefit to not using the listing |
00:02:20 | 00:02:23 | software it's available it's very |
00:02:22 | 00:02:26 | affordable you should be using it |
00:02:23 | 00:02:29 | because it's a waste of time for you not |
00:02:26 | 00:02:31 | to be using listing software so that's |
00:02:29 | 00:02:33 | number two the second thing I see |
00:02:31 | 00:02:35 | dropshippers doing that makes no sense |
00:02:33 | 00:02:38 | the third thing I see that dropshippers |
00:02:35 | 00:02:41 | do that makes no sense is they just list |
00:02:38 | 00:02:44 | any old item on eBay and expect it to |
00:02:41 | 00:02:46 | sell and that used to work years and |
00:02:44 | 00:02:48 | years ago before there are more drop |
00:02:46 | 00:02:50 | shippers on ebay before buyers we have |
00:02:48 | 00:02:52 | become more savvy about shopping around |
00:02:50 | 00:02:55 | but it just doesn't work anymore |
00:02:52 | 00:02:57 | you can't just list any item and expect |
00:02:55 | 00:03:00 | it to sell and luckily you don't have to |
00:02:57 | 00:03:03 | do that because we have sales history on |
00:03:00 | 00:03:06 | eBay that tells you what items are |
00:03:03 | 00:03:08 | already selling well on eBay and those |
00:03:06 | 00:03:10 | are the items that you should be drop |
00:03:08 | 00:03:13 | shipping as well don't waste your time |
00:03:10 | 00:03:14 | listing anything else if you don't know |
00:03:13 | 00:03:17 | if it's going to sell only list the |
00:03:14 | 00:03:19 | items that you know are going to sell |
00:03:17 | 00:03:21 | well if you want more information about |
00:03:19 | 00:03:25 | how to find those products how to do the |
00:03:21 | 00:03:26 | product research I have a free mini eBay |
00:03:25 | 00:03:28 | dropshipping course I'll link that up in |
00:03:26 | 00:03:31 | the description inside that course I |
00:03:28 | 00:03:32 | teach all about product research so |
00:03:31 | 00:03:35 | check out that course if you want to |
00:03:32 | 00:03:37 | learn about how to find the best |
00:03:35 | 00:03:39 | products the dropship so you don't waste |
00:03:37 | 00:03:41 | your time just listening up any random |
00:03:39 | 00:03:45 | old item number four is when people |
00:03:41 | 00:03:48 | spend thousands of dollars learning from |
00:03:45 | 00:03:50 | a guru how to do a Bay drop shipping and |
00:03:48 | 00:03:52 | I'm saying this even though I have a |
00:03:50 | 00:03:54 | paid course because I really don't |
00:03:52 | 00:03:57 | believe you have to spend thousands of |
00:03:54 | 00:03:59 | dollars to get started with eBay |
00:03:57 | 00:04:01 | dropshipping in fact there are plenty of |
00:03:59 | 00:04:03 | free videos I have here on YouTube I |
00:04:01 | 00:04:05 | have that free course linked up below |
00:04:03 | 00:04:07 | you should get started with that |
00:04:05 | 00:04:10 | see if you can figure it out with just |
00:04:07 | 00:04:11 | those free resources and if you do want |
00:04:10 | 00:04:13 | to pay for something you don't have to |
00:04:11 | 00:04:16 | pay thousands of dollars to get started |
00:04:13 | 00:04:17 | that's a mistake I see people making and |
00:04:16 | 00:04:19 | it just kind of makes me cringe because |
00:04:17 | 00:04:21 | I think people are kind of taking |
00:04:19 | 00:04:24 | advantage of you if you're spending |
00:04:21 | 00:04:24 | thousands of dollars just to get started |
00:04:24 | 00:04:27 | with this |
00:04:24 | 00:04:29 | relatively more simple business model I |
00:04:27 | 00:04:32 | do believe that it's important or it's a |
00:04:29 | 00:04:33 | smart idea to invest in something that |
00:04:32 | 00:04:35 | will help you get started but I |
00:04:33 | 00:04:37 | certainly don't think you need to spend |
00:04:35 | 00:04:39 | thousands of dollars to get there so |
00:04:37 | 00:04:42 | that is the other thing I see that makes |
00:04:39 | 00:04:45 | no sense to me let's go to number five |
00:04:42 | 00:04:48 | which is that a lot of dropshippers just |
00:04:45 | 00:04:50 | price their items way too high you can't |
00:04:48 | 00:04:51 | expect to markup your items fifty |
00:04:50 | 00:04:54 | percent |
00:04:51 | 00:04:56 | or hundred percent and make a sale on |
00:04:54 | 00:04:58 | that item what you're going to find is |
00:04:56 | 00:05:00 | that eBay is a marketplace where people |
00:04:58 | 00:05:03 | can see all the other sellers for |
00:05:00 | 00:05:06 | different or similar or the same items |
00:05:03 | 00:05:08 | so you have to price your items somewhat |
00:05:06 | 00:05:10 | competitively in order to make sales so |
00:05:08 | 00:05:12 | don't think you could just mark it up |
00:05:10 | 00:05:14 | you know double and double your profit |
00:05:12 | 00:05:17 | just by doing that you gotta be somewhat |
00:05:14 | 00:05:20 | competitive with your pricing in order |
00:05:17 | 00:05:22 | to do well with eBay dropshipping number |
00:05:20 | 00:05:24 | six the mistake that I see people making |
00:05:22 | 00:05:27 | is that their drop shipping from |
00:05:24 | 00:05:30 | websites like Walmart or Home Depot or |
00:05:27 | 00:05:32 | Amazon and they haven't become tax |
00:05:30 | 00:05:35 | exempt when you spy products from those |
00:05:32 | 00:05:37 | websites in many cases you have to pay |
00:05:35 | 00:05:39 | sales tax for those items so you might |
00:05:37 | 00:05:41 | buy the item for $100 but it costs you |
00:05:39 | 00:05:43 | one hundred and three dollars because |
00:05:41 | 00:05:45 | you have to pay sales tax well why not |
00:05:43 | 00:05:48 | become tax exempt which means that you |
00:05:45 | 00:05:50 | don't have to pay sales tax to Amazon |
00:05:48 | 00:05:52 | Walmart or Home Depot and instead that |
00:05:50 | 00:05:54 | cost is kind of passed along to the |
00:05:52 | 00:05:56 | buyer when they purchase the item on |
00:05:54 | 00:05:58 | eBay we'll get into the all the |
00:05:56 | 00:06:00 | logistiks of it right now but for most |
00:05:58 | 00:06:02 | people if they're drop shipping from one |
00:06:00 | 00:06:03 | of these websites they should become tax |
00:06:02 | 00:06:05 | exempt if you know what you're doing you |
00:06:03 | 00:06:08 | have to go through the process and make |
00:06:05 | 00:06:09 | sure everything is legit but it really |
00:06:08 | 00:06:12 | makes no sense for you not to do it |
00:06:09 | 00:06:14 | because it's such a huge savings for you |
00:06:12 | 00:06:17 | and it will allow you to price your |
00:06:14 | 00:06:19 | items more competitively which like I |
00:06:17 | 00:06:21 | said before is one of the keys to |
00:06:19 | 00:06:23 | success with eBay dropshipping the |
00:06:21 | 00:06:25 | seventh thing that I see that |
00:06:23 | 00:06:28 | dropshippers do that make absolutely no |
00:06:25 | 00:06:30 | sense on eBay is when they don't use |
00:06:28 | 00:06:31 | cashback websites I've toked about this |
00:06:30 | 00:06:33 | a lot on myut |
00:06:31 | 00:06:36 | chenna when you buy items online you |
00:06:33 | 00:06:39 | should be always using a cash back |
00:06:36 | 00:06:41 | website this is free cash for you it's |
00:06:39 | 00:06:44 | so simple to use sign up for one like |
00:06:41 | 00:06:46 | simply best coupon or giving assistant |
00:06:44 | 00:06:49 | or top cashback you sign up you click on |
00:06:46 | 00:06:50 | a button on that website it takes you to |
00:06:49 | 00:06:52 | the website you were going to shop on |
00:06:50 | 00:06:54 | let's say that was Walmart place your |
00:06:52 | 00:06:56 | order on Walmart and just because you |
00:06:54 | 00:06:59 | went through that cashback website first |
00:06:56 | 00:07:02 | you get let's say 3% back that's 3% adds |
00:06:59 | 00:07:05 | up over time it's free money for you it |
00:07:02 | 00:07:08 | makes no sense if you're not using those |
00:07:05 | 00:07:11 | cash back websites so use them the 8th |
00:07:08 | 00:07:13 | thing that I see that eBay dropshippers |
00:07:11 | 00:07:16 | do that make no sense is that I |
00:07:13 | 00:07:18 | sometimes get a ton of questions from |
00:07:16 | 00:07:19 | people who want to start you BAE drop |
00:07:18 | 00:07:22 | shipping and they ask me so many |
00:07:19 | 00:07:24 | questions and never even get started so |
00:07:22 | 00:07:27 | the biggest mistake I see people making |
00:07:24 | 00:07:30 | is they don't even get started they want |
00:07:27 | 00:07:31 | to know everything up front they want to |
00:07:30 | 00:07:34 | know how every aspect of the business |
00:07:31 | 00:07:36 | works they don't want any surprises so |
00:07:34 | 00:07:38 | they keep asking questions and they |
00:07:36 | 00:07:40 | never get started and I love this quote |
00:07:38 | 00:07:41 | I'm gonna put sure it though it's |
00:07:40 | 00:07:44 | something like I'm going to take a leap |
00:07:41 | 00:07:47 | and build my wings on the way down and I |
00:07:44 | 00:07:48 | love that quote because it says you know |
00:07:47 | 00:07:50 | sometimes you just gotta take a leap of |
00:07:48 | 00:07:52 | faith and understand that you're not |
00:07:50 | 00:07:55 | going to know everything when you're |
00:07:52 | 00:07:57 | jumping into it you will learn as you go |
00:07:55 | 00:07:59 | along you know you learn a little bit |
00:07:57 | 00:08:01 | upfront just enough to get started get |
00:07:59 | 00:08:04 | started and you could always learn as |
00:08:01 | 00:08:05 | you go learn go along that is the best |
00:08:04 | 00:08:08 | way to learn |
00:08:05 | 00:08:10 | in fact so if you enjoyed these eight |
00:08:08 | 00:08:13 | things that dropshippers do on ebay that |
00:08:10 | 00:08:15 | make zero sense make sure to give the |
