Easiest Way To Start Dropshipping From Scratch (Exactly What I Did)

trying to start a dropshipping store can be overwhelming. with so many different steps and strategies, it's hard to even know where to start. so in this video, i'm going to share my exact strategy for starting a new drop shipping store from scratch, and in the last couple months, i've built a new store with this strategy, and that store has already done close to 900 000 in sales. so if i had to start over today, this is exactly what i would do. if you're new here, my name is jordan and i'm currently documenting the entire process of growing my online business with as much transparency as possible, so that i can lead by example and help you start your own online business this year. so if you're interested in starting your own online store and you want to follow my journey, make sure to subscribe for new videos every single friday. all right, let's get started. firstly, i want to show you some live results that i'm getting with this exact strategy. so it's around halfway through the day and i've already generated around 3 800 in sales on this store. the profit margin is pretty good as well. i've done almost fifteen hundred dollars in profit, which is almost a forty percent profit margin, and if we take a look at yesterday's stats, you can see i sold around sixty seven hundred dollars and made around eighteen hundred dollars in profit. i just wanted to prove to you that this is working right now. so you know it's worth your time to watch this whole video. so there are four main things that go into building a successful drop shipping store. the first one is your product. the second one is your store. the third is your marketing and how you get customers, and the fourth is running your business and shipping out your orders. now i'm gonna break down each of these one by one as simple as possible. so let's get started with products. so without a winning product, it's pretty much impossible to have success with drop shipping. thankfully, there are a ton of products out there that you can sell. every single week, new winning products pop up, so the opportunities are always fresh. there's really only three things that i look for when determining if a product is a winning product. the first thing is if the product has been recently trending on facebook and instagram. what i mean by trending is that there is a ad that is getting a ton of views, shares, comments and likes and people are going crazy for the product. this is a great sign that you can make money off of this product because people are already interested in it. as long as you do something a little bit better than the person that's already selling it, you can swoop right in, compete with them and make money selling that same product. this is exactly what i've done for every single one of my winning products and it's worked time and time again. the next thing i look for is mass appeal. my favorite type of products are the ones that can be sold to the masses. i don't love the extremely narrowed down products that only apply to a small set of people. yes, they will buy the product, but if we ever want to scale and build something big, we need something that we can sell to almost everybody. it's okay if it's a little narrow, like it's only for women or it's only for men, but the broader the better. the last thing i look for is good profit margins. what i consider to be good profit margins is being able to sell the product for three times the cost it takes to ship it out to the customer. so if the product costs you around 10 to send it to your customer, you want to be able to sell it for at least 30, and that's pretty much all i look for in a winning product. let me show you a live example of exactly what i'm toking about. okay, so this product is an absolute banger. basically, it is a garden privacy fence that you set up in your backyard. as you can see, this product was launched on march 8th of this year and they've already got over 70 000 likes on this post. if you check out the comments, people are going crazy for this. they love it, they really enjoy the product. but the people that are selling it aren't doing a good job and if we look at their video, it's not really that good. and then if we go to their website, it's the same thing. it's really not that good. this product has great profit margins as well. you can see that it cost around four dollars on the low end to ship to a customer and they're selling it for anywhere from 1999 all the way up to almost a hundred dollars per sale. so if you came in and made a slightly better video, a slightly better website, you could clean up off of this product and make a ton of money. so, like i said, that product is an absolute banger and a perfect example of a winning product. now, how do you find these products? the tried and true method that i've been using for years is simply just looking on your facebook and instagram feed. every single day, you're going to get targeted with ads for drop shipping products eventually, and every time you get targeted with one of these ads, you need to show facebook that you're interested. so you want to go to the ad, you want to like, you want to comment, you want to go to the website, you want to click add to cart and show facebook that you're trying to buy stuff like this. so they will start recommending you more products and your feed is just going to become the best product research tool that you have. that's my favorite method, but i also created a tool that automates this process. so if you want to check that out, click the link down below. alright, so step number one is finding a product that fits this criteria. so once you've got that product, now you've got to build a store. now there are a couple different types of stores that you could build. you could build a general store, which is a store that has a bunch of random products all around it. you could build a one product store, which is a store that only focuses on selling one main product, or you can build a hybrid store, which is what i recommend. building a hybrid store combines the benefit of a one product store and a general store. with a general store, you have freedom to test a bunch of products, and with a one product store you're limited, but you're gonna have a higher conversion rate and people are gonna trust you much more than a general store. with a hybrid store, you're creating the same branded feel that a one product store would have, but with the freedom to test a bunch of products. i think it's better if i just show you an example. so this is a sample store that i created. that would actually be perfect for the product i just showed you. the store is called flora flow. as you can see, it's pretty much focused entirely on home and garden based products. it has a nice branded design, it has a good logo, it's easy to browse and shop around and overall, it feels like a trustworthy site. i recently made a video on exactly how i built this store, so after you watch this one, feel free to check that out. the one tip i will give in this video is to model your store off of what's already working. this is not some brand new design i came up with. i just put my own little twist on what was already working. you don't have to reinvent the wheel. you just have to take what's working and add a little bit of your own sauce to it. so i would advise taking your product, building a store like this and filling it up with products that are similar to the one you're selling. here's another really good example of a hybrid store. this one is called arctik shirt and, as you can see, they sell a bunch of home decor products as well. they have the moon lamp, this kitchen set, they have bedding. they have all types of products, but the store is really nice, branded and feels extremely trustworthy. in my opinion, this is the best approach for beginners, so give it a try. next up, you need to get some traffic and customers to your website. personally, my favorite method for starting with a new store is facebook ads. it does cost a little bit of money to run ads on facebook, so i recommend that you have at least a couple hundred dollars.

I Tried Shopify Dropshipping With NO MONEY For 1 Week

so in this video, i'm gonna start a brand new shopify drop shipping business and attempt to take it from zero dollars to over one thousand dollars in just one week. and i'm not going to be using any money for this challenge, and i know a lot of people think you can't start a drop shipping business without any money, but we're gonna prove them wrong in this video and i'll be starting the drop shipping business completely from scratch and walk you through the entire step-by-step process, and at the end of the video, i'll show you exactly how much money the business makes. honestly, i'm hoping it's gonna make over a thousand dollars, but we're just gonna have to wait and see. so i have a lot of stuff that i have to get done today, and the very first thing i want to do is just find a good product to sell, and then after that, i'm just going to find a good supplier. then i'm just going to create my online store with shopify and then after that, i'm going to start creating advertisements, and for this challenge, i'm basically going to be using pinterest, instagram and tiktok and just basically post viral videos on there for free. and yes, this method does work well, since i do use it on my current drop shipping businesses that make over six figures. okay. so the first thing i want to start by doing is trying to find a good product to sell and, honestly, as long as i can create viral videos with the product and it has high demand, it's something i can work with. and, honestly, i find about 99 of my viral products on tiktok, so i'm going to kind of show you my strategy and how you can do this yourself. so kind of what i do on tik tok is just search up tiktok made me buy it- then i'll just click on that little hamburger icon in the top right corner, then i'll just change the date posted to this month and now it's going to show you a bunch of relevant winning products that are selling right now. and some other hashtags you can do this with is amazon fines, drop shippers exposed and tiktok viral products. but anyways, i'm going to take the next 20 minutes to try to find some good products to sell and once i do find something, i'll come back and update you okay. so, honestly, i found a ton of really good products, but there is one that stood out to me the most, which is the cordless hair curler. and for anyone who doesn't know? the cordless hair curler is really convenient for females, since you can kind of touch up your hair anywhere you go, and there's so many stores on tiktok selling this product, so if they're doing well, i'm sure i can also do the same. all right. so the next thing i want to do is find a supplier that i can get the product from, and so for this video, i think i'm going to use spocket. so i found the cordless hair curler on spock it for 28 dollars and 30 cents, which is really good, and the shipping times are only seven to 14 business days, which is also ideal, and i think i'm gonna sell the product on my store for 59.99. now i've actually seen a lot of stores sign this product for over a hundred dollars, but because i do want to sell a lot of product in a short period of time and i don't want it to be too expensive, i think 59.99 is a good number to stik with, and if my customers do see that other stores are selling it for over a hundred dollars and i'm only selling it for a fraction of that cost, i'm sure they'd rather buy it from my store. now i do want to add one other product to my store, and i'm thinking just to make it an upsell. so, anyways, i found this heat protectant spray and i think it goes really well with the cordless hair curler, and i'm thinking to sell it on my store for 19.99, and it's only going to cost me eight dollars and 27 cents, which is pretty good, and if you do need a supplier for your drop shipping store, i'll leave a link for spock it in the description of this video. but, anyways, now i got the product, which i'm happy about, and so the next step now is to actually start building my shopify store, and i do want my store to look like an actual brand, and so it is going to take me a little bit of time to build it. so, anyways, i'm going to start working on the store right now and then i'll update you tomorrow once i'm done. all right, so it's the second day now and i finally finished the store and i made it look very simple and clean, and i'm going to show you the page that the customers get redirected to. so, anyways, i have different color options here, and i also did add a sales timer to create sense of urgency. i also included a ton of high quality photos, which is really important, and i also added this to build more trust with the customers. and if you scroll down here, you can see i put what's included in the package, then i tok about the benefits of buying the cordless hair curler, then i added some frequently asked questions and then i also do have a 30 day money back guarantee. a lot of customers won't buy your product if you don't have this, so make sure you do. and if you scroll down here, you can see that i did include how the cordless hair curler works, so this just makes it look really easy and straightforward. and all the way at the bottom of the page i did include some customer reviews. now, i obviously did import these reviews to my store, but usually i do have real customer reviews. but that's pretty much it for the store and i think it looks pretty good. but anyways, now that i'm done with my store, the next important thing i have to do is add a shopify app called after sell to my store, and the reason i'm going to use after sell is because it can increase my revenue anywhere from 10 to 15, which is exactly what i want. and afterstok is for post purchase upsells, and if you don't know what that is. it's basically when you offer a customer a product to purchase after they've already purchased something from your store. for example, after someone purchases the cordless hair curler from my store, i can then offer them another product to purchase. so in my case, i could upsell the heat protectant spray, since it works well with the cordless hair curler. and post purchase upsells work so well because if a customer just purchased something from your store, they're more likely to purchase another item, since you already built that initial trust, and you can even give them a really good discount on the upsell offer, which will then make them want to buy it even more. now, one thing you never want to do with upsells is actually offer them to the customer before they've made a purchase. this will just end up confusing them and they might not end up buying the product at all. but the good thing about after sell is that the upsell offer only comes after a customer makes a purchase, which is exactly what we want. but anyways, i'm actually going to create an upsell offer using after sale for my store right now and kind of walk you through the process step by step. okay, so the very first thing you want to do is go to the shopify app store and just search for after cell and it should come up. so it's going to look like this: after sell, post purchase, upsell. so let's add the app. okay, so once you're in after sale, the first thing you want to do is click here on enable settings. then it's going to bring you to the shopify page. so just make sure you click on after cell, then just click on save. okay, back here, let's just refresh the page. okay, now the first thing we want to do is actually just set up our first funnel. click here on create and i'm just going to name this funnel: heat protectant. so here i want to click show this funnel to all customers. since i only do have one upsell product. okay, now i'm going to choose the upsell product and basically what i'm going to be upselling is this heat protectant spray. now, the cool thing here is, if the customer actually does end up purchasing this product, you can offer them another upsell, and if they decline this product, then you can offer them a downsell. now, since i don't have any other products, i'm just going to keep it like this, but you can add products in here. now. next thing i want to do is click here on edi.

I Bought And Tested 3 Stores On Fiverr... Here's What Happened - Shopify Dropshipping

hey guys, what's going on in this video? we're doing something that no one has ever done and that's ordering stores from fiverr. all right, all right, a lot of people have done it, but no one has tested like three of them in the same video. so that's what i'm doing. but yeah, without further ado, let's go straight into the video. alright? so in order for us to order a store from fiverr, we'll at least first have to find the product. so i'm gonna go on a few really, really tough hours and search for some products, i'll show you them and then we'll go over to the stores. maybe the ads first, i don't know, we'll see. and uh, yeah, that's pretty much it. i guess that means i got some work to do. so see you soon, i guess. [Music] many hours later. okay, so after scrolling cj, drop shipping- not drop us by this time. usually i would search on drop a spy, but you know, for building like stores on fiverr, it doesn't really matter too much. if you guys want to use droppers by link in the description, it's really good. but yeah, so i'm on cj and i found three products that we're gonna be testing and having the stores built for. so the first one is an electric like head massager that's also led and stuff. i haven't seen this product before. it looks really interesting. i kind of feel like i should have seen it by now, but i haven't. so i think this one's actually got some really good potential because it's pretty cheap. it's like, i don't know, we're getting one for nine dollars, like less than ten dollars. i guess we can sell one for like 35- 30 minimum. so we got a nice mark up there, uh. the second product i've seen a lot of times is this like straight hair comb, comb, i don't know. um, yeah, we're getting one for like 13.. so, yeah, not too expensive, pretty decent. i feel like it could sell. so, yeah, let's give it a go. and the final one i've seen like similar products. i've never seen this exact design. it's like an eyelid massager or something like that. it's supposed to make you look younger. people love looking younger. i guess yo guys, it's me from the future. i just wanted to show you guys one of the stores that i've been working on with a client, right, so he came to me with a product doing like 300 a day, uh, on april the 8th, and we partnered up and we managed to scale it to 1k a day in less than like 10 days and then we took it to 2.4k and we kind of had like a down date. then we scaled it up all the way up to 4.5 k and then it was doing like really good 4.5 k again, and then we kind of had to scale down because of like facebook issues and stuff, but it's still done like one to 2k a day pretty profitably and this is the main campaign in facebook. so, as you can see, it's done 117 000 in revenue and we've only spent like thirty eight thousand dollars in ads. so the ros is like 3.09. so if any of you guys are doing like 400 a day or more in revenue and you'd like to scale your store, uh, dm me on instagram or email me. i'll have my email in the description and we can get in touch and see if we can work something out. um, or if you just want to get on the mentorship, uh, feel free to dm me on instagram as well. and yeah, that's pretty much it. back to the video. and yeah, i also found the products on aliexpress, so i can do this. so, if you guys don't know, there's a tool called saturation inspector and it's so good. so it's in the chrome web store, so check them out. i'll have a link in the description as well. but yeah, it basically tells you, like how many other stores are selling your product, and this product seems to be like very untapped. it's only managed to find like two stores selling this exact same product and the really cool thing is like it gives you the link to the store so you can click on the link and it takes you to the product page and then you can see if it's horrible, if it's good, and if it's good you can like copy some of it. so it's really awesome for descriptions too. if you're like not creative, like me, then you can come in, steal a bit from this guy, a bit from this guy, and make your own description. so all right. so for the other product, it only found one store selling it. so we did pretty good. we found some unsaturated products and then the final one's probably going to be a bit more saturated, because i've seen it a few times. but yeah, let's see. and all right, it's pumping up 12 stores, all right. so only 12 stores sell on this one, which is not too much. so i think we should be safe it's. we're not selling two sacher products. this site is like. i don't know which language this is. this is something arabic, i think. if you guys want to check out, saturation inspector link in the description. and yeah, so you know, we have the products now. for time's sake, i'm going to be ordering the ads before ordering the stores, just because we're going to be waiting at least like a day or two for the stores, maybe even more so if i order the ads after that, then we're going to be running even more so. so i'm just going to order the ads beforehand and then we'll order the stores, i guess. and uh, yeah, that should be it. then we're going to be ready to go. so we're going with top notch ads. if you guys want to use top notch ads as well, i'll have my affiliate link in the description. i think i can just call it marco to say like five dollars off. so yeah, as i always say, the split tester package is always the best. yeah, so we're gonna be ordering three, uh, split testing packages and we're gonna be adding the ad copy. so, just so i don't have to write the ad copy myself, it's like 10 bucks, so not too bad. let's add the car and there we go. so let's check out nice, all right, now that i've placed the order, i'm just gonna fill out the like product submission forms. so this is gonna take a few minutes, see you guys, once i'm finished. all right, so after a decent amount of time, i finally submitted all the forms. so i guess now we can finally go to fiverr and find some gigs, maybe order some stores and, yeah, see how they turn out. so let's go there. all right. so we're on fiverr and let's search for, like shopify store and let's see what comes up. um, all right, 426 euros, that's a bit expensive for one store. 18, wow, 1700 euros, dude, that's like 2 000 or something. yeah, let's scroll a bit and let's see if we can find something that's like not incredibly expensive and looks good actually. but yeah, i'll scroll through and i'll update you guys once i found something. so, yeah, let's see a few inches later. okay, so i think i've found the first actual like listing. it did take a while, like there are a lot of bad ones, but this one's got 1400 reviews. i think this is like the best reviewed, like the highest number of reviews listing. i've found it's a level two seller, which means they've completed at least 50 orders on time with a minimum 4.7 rating. if someone's new to fiverr, um, yeah, that's what it means. and uh, yeah, two orders in queue, uh, the packages it's like 70 bucks, 110 bucks, so, yeah, it's not that big of a price difference. but you get like 10 more products, one more page and you get like responsive designs. so, yeah, premium is just standard, with more like products and stuff. so, i don't know, it's probably good as well. but let's just stik the standard, because i'm buying like three stores and, yeah, so i'm gonna be ordering from this one. now we gotta find like two more that we're gonna be using. so, see you guys soon, a few moments later. all right, so i think i found like the second person we're gonna be buying from. so the basic package is only 35 bucks, which is like super cheap. yeah, you get like three pages, 10 products, right, 10 products is really good, um, but it's not like responsive design, stuff like that. so i'm not sure what that means. but you know, i feel like it should be better. so standard is only 70 bucks, so it's not that bad at all and you get 20 products and stuff like that. so we get. we also get like five plugins here, which is awesome. uh, it's a level one seller but like really good ratings as well. so four orders in queue, that's quite a lot. yeah, i gotta find the next one, so see you soon. i hope soon after all. right, so we're on the fi.

How I Bought A Dropshipping Business From Shopify [Profit And Product Revealed]

welcome to shopify's exchange Marketplace. it's the place where you're supposed to be able to pull out your credit card and purchase a Drop Shipping Store that's already successful- at least, that's what I'm hoping for. I was intrigued by the concept of this and wanted to put it to the test to see if I could actually skip over all of the tedious Drop Shipping work. let's break down the plan, and it's a fairly simple one: find and purchase a Shopify Drop Shipping Store that's reasonably priced on the marketplace, then order the product to my house to create my own content and post on tiktok three times a day, religiously. after all of that's done, hopefully we start seeing some sales roll in and we turn this store profitable. is this gonna work? who knows? but subscribe to the channel and let's get right into the video. I spent countless hours on the exchange Marketplace looking through every single category, desperately trying to find that Shopify store that I thought had potential to actually make some money. as I was looking around, I saw so many stores that were overvalued in my opinion, and they were asking so much for the selling price. seeing all of these high prices, I got a little distracted and actually plugged in my store to see what the valuation was and to my surprise, it was actually pretty good, but this is not what I was making the video on. so I got back to looking for websites and it was so hard because so many were overvalued. here's the update. I went out and got a haircut, came back and I literally spent a full day looking for websites that I wanted to purchase and I finally think I found one. so this website is not perfect by any means, but it is cheap. it's about 200. I really like the product that's on the website, but the problem is the website looks pretty horrendous. I'm gonna order the product to my house and while I'm waiting for it, I'm gonna redesign the website completely and then, once the product gets here, I'll be able to start filming some tiktoks. so, as always, I'm giving away another custom built Shopify website made by me and my team at Ecom, remastered. this custom website is built on a premium theme and already has winning products loaded onto it. all you have to do to enter is leave a like. hit the Subscribe button. also, leave a comment down below. the comment can be anything at all. for example, you could say something like I really like your new haircut, or whatever you want, I'm also announcing the giveaway winner from last video somewhere in this video, so make sure you're watching and paying attention. and last thing here: if you're wondering how you can work with me and my team directly, make sure you grab one of the free 45 minute Discovery calls in the description below. spots are limited, so grab one while you can and see if we can work together. what's up, guys? so we're back here. I actually got the product in hand and now we drove over to Topgolf so we're gonna do a bunch of filming with like ugc content. we're gonna do some stuff on the iPhone. the mission here today is to film as much content as possible. hopefully we're gonna be able to film for like one to two hours here and get a ton of clips that we can chop up and edit and put on tiktok and run organically. so I will see you guys on the putting green. [Music]. all right, all right, we are back and ready to roll. I just got done filming a bunch of stuff on the putting green and I think it turned out really well. I got a ton of Great Clips I'm gonna repurpose into ads for organic tiktoks. I also set up the tiktok account. I added the logo. we got a bunch of followers also. in the meantime, I've been seasoning the account, posting a ton of different golf videos. so now when I post these videos, tik tok already knows exactly the audience that wants to see this type of content. I also have the link in the bio that goes directly to the product, so hopefully I'll be able to get some sales. now I'm going to be editing all of these videos I just took. I'm also going to be looking for some Trends and viral sounds that I can plug these clips into. so it makes sense. I also love a lot of the way these clips turned out and I'm pretty excited to post them. I think I'm gonna get some pretty good results. here's what I'm going to be doing. I'm going to be posting for the next couple days. I'm really gonna try to get a viral video or two to see how much traffic goes to the store, and then we're gonna check back in later to see if I got any sales at all several days later. guys, I'm at the beach right now and I happen to have my GoPro with me because we were taking some videos out in the water. if I just launched the tiktoks for the golf page and I had a big error. I accidentally messed up and I basically messed up the payment, so no one could actually like check out. but I fixed it just a couple hours ago and we already have three sales coming in. we did one test order and three orders just came in right now. all right, guys, so so much has happened in the last week here, especially with this brand, and I'm very excited to share the results: what the ads looked like, what I was posting on tiktok, how much traction I got, how many sales came in. so we're gonna cover all that right now. I mean, if you can't tell by my excitement, the results are actually pretty good, surprisingly good. here's what we're going to cover really quickly, right? so I'm going to show you the website build. I'm also going to show you the type of content that we got on the golf course to make these tiktok ads. I'm going to show you the tiktoks that we made and ran as advertisements and then, in the end, how many sales actually came in from the organic traffic. all right, let's get right into it. all right, really quickly, let's take a look at the revamped website to see what I did to it to make it look better. I changed the domain, obviously, but I updated the landing page to what I thought was going to be a lot more converting for tiktok. alright, so pulling up the website here. it's a decent build, actually. so I'm using a theme that I had already from before- it's called the Streamline theme and, uh, I just created this nice, simple home page. I think it looks really nice in my opinion, but the most important part of it is obviously the landing page, so let's take a look at that. this is the landing page. I did some custom design with the boxes that made it look really branded and really nice, and I took these photos actually myself at home and uploaded them on here, because all the ones that were on AliExpress were not that great. I added some reviews on there, obviously from AliExpress and some from friends. we made it for 24.99 with free shipping at the add to cart. we've obviously got the logos- a huge fan of logos on the websites. on this section right here, I used to have some video, but it was slowing down the website so much that I had to take it off, so I just put a photo here scrolling down. we've got some more logos. this is kind of like a custom made canva little setup here on the landing page. honestly, overall, not very bad right. I thought it was going to be converted enough for tiktok. now that we've seen the product page and what a good landing page looks like, in my opinion, for tiktok, let's actually go into tiktok and look at some of the ads that I created for this product and any results that came from Those ads on the account. it's not a brand new account. I actually switched an old tik tok account that I had just so I could get the link in BIO and making it a lot quicker. I totally recommend getting at least a thousand followers on tiktok so you can put your Link in the bio for organic traffic. so, starting off here, we're posting a lot of content that was just golf related. we wanted to season the account to make sure that it was actually getting to the Right audience. some of this content was reposted. I was getting anywhere from like 1 000 to 155 000 uh views on one of these videos, which was like the biggest one, that really kind of started making it snowball. essentially a few videos after that, one that was 155k was on.

How to Properly Buy a REAL Pre-Built Shopify Dropshipping Store w/ Adsellr

you've seen my multiple videos across multiple channels, of me exposing and roasting and tearing apart these pre-built shopify stores and how terrible they are and how much of a ripoff it is. well, the number one comment i got from all those videos is: okay, this is fake, thanks, but where did i get a real one? i didn't have a good answer to that question. in fact, all the pre-built stuff i saw was garbage until today. so let's tok about how to buy a pre-built shopify store the right way. [Music]. make me a deal. if you get any value or information out of today's video, hit that like and subscribe button and today's video is brought to you by ad seller. yes, this is a sponsored video, but you're going to see why i chose the sponsorship now. listen. i've had opportunities for people to sponsor my videos for pre-built shopify stores before and, trust me, i've said no and i say no to 90 of the companies that reach out. but this company i was like you know what. i'll give them a shot. i'll check out their store and it's one of the better shopify stores i've ever seen. ever i'm toking better than some of like the high profile professional drop shippers. you see their videos and you see their stores. i mean, this is next level. so let me kind of read you the description of what ad seller really is. ad seller is an e-commerce agency who specializes in user-generated content, pre-built shopify stores and other e-commerce marketing and production services. okay, so you don't want to sit here and listen to me blab and stare at my ugly face. i got a pimple. no one wants to look at that. so what i'm actually going to do is i'm going to tell you all about the store, all about the company, all about what they can do for you in their package. it's not just a store. you also get other things included with it, including a 10 000 follower instagram page, which i, of course, have access to. i got my store, i got my instagram page and they are fantastik. so i'm just going to kind of screen record what the store looks like. so that way, i have time to explain to you everything you need to know and you can thoroughly look through all of the pages and really analyze the store. and then, after i'm done toking about the store, we're gonna walk through the instagram page that i got and, of course, there's also marketing material that you can purchase alongside with it. so let's roll the footage now as far as ads and stores go. most other services charge you hundreds of dollars for content and what these companies do is they turn around and they hire someone on fiverr to make a crap video or a crap store for five bucks and that's what you end up getting. they're simply the middle man just pocketing the difference. ad seller actually has an in-house creative team that hand creates all of the advertising content. in fact, they were actually started as a video production company, so it's no wonder they blew the competition out of the water. it's a 90-day difference between the stores we've gone through with. you know people like mikey cass and what i'm going to be showing you today. so with the 17 pre-built shopify store scam, you may or may not ever receive your store. with ad seller, the delivery time is only five business days and in fact i got this door- you're seeing right here- in four business days. you order some of the scam ones. you might get it in 10 minutes or less because they're all copy and paste. they take no time to build, but these are handcrafted. so maybe you think this is a long time- and to some people it is, but keep in mind it takes hours and hours and hours of manpower to create a truly good store, unlike the copy and paste insta delivery crap you may have gotten before. so let's tok about some kind of advice going into the store and we're going to tok about what niche to choose. so you should choose the niche that you are most familiar with yourself, so you can get the best understanding of the mindset of your customer and therefore appeal to them with your products. point is, it's up to you now. ad seller doesn't recommend you choose a luxury or apparel niche, since they require expensive branding and a large budget with endless competitors. so they've got your back and won't let you do anything stupid now. up front drop shipping isn't for everybody, so here's the full picture to see if you really have what it takes. what someone should consider before buying one of these pre-built shopify stores is: do they have enough time to manage a successful business, for example, sitting behind a computer screen every day, answering emails, fulfilling orders, dealing with angry customers, etc. it's not all fun, like many people believe, and it takes a lot of effort. it can get very tiring. drop shipping is not for everyone and for some people it might be better to start a more hands-on business, as opposed to an e-commerce drop shipping store. what monthly expenses you should expect after buying the pre-built shopify store is, of course, the 29 per month shopify subscription, buying a domain, which is going to be about 14 a year, plus any additional fees for marketing campaigns, third-party shopify apps, etc. the stores made on fiber often include grammar mistakes, low quality images, poor sales funnel, little branding and more. worst case scenario, you'll receive an identikal store with your competitors and that's an immediate disadvantage for you. i know low prices may seem entiking, but this is no place to cheap out after all. if this is your tiket to potential financial freedom- of course not guaranteed- don't you want to give it the best shot you've got and build a real store, not a hollow one? that is garbage and short term? now, simply buying a pre-built store isn't some cheat code. it's more of a major mistake. in time saver, you got to understand there is risk, just like anything else. you still have to put in the work every day for marketing, fulfilling orders, answering customer questions, staying active on social media, writing blog posts, doing seo work and constantly expanding your brand and online presence. now why buying a one product store is not a good idea. the more products your store has, the more options there are for your customers to purchase, and generally, more products equal more sales and more traffic, since there's more content on your website. so there is a one product package and then there also is a general package, and the general store package is what i got. now. with the general store, of course, it's a fantastik store. as you can see, it is going to include a 10 000 follower instagram account, 30 shopify themes, full seo optimization and it's going to come with reviews with 50 plus orders and order tracking page, so you're going to get kind of full service there. and, of course, ad sellers- user generated ads that are created in-house are fantastik, and you can see one right here. this nerf dog toy is one of my dog's favorite toys. she loves to play tug-o-war with it and it's great for fetch too. it's perfect for cheering her up whenever she's been at home all day or just for playing in general. it's made of a high quality rope, so it's also great for helping with her teething. it also has a squeaker inside. if you are a dog owner, definitely check out top paws. they have so many cool pet products. [Music]. this builds social proof, builds trust helps associate your brand with positive emotions and a friendly face. so let's tok about the store itself now. it's not necessarily pre-built, that's just kind of a catchy marketing lingo. um, it's more like custom made. that's why it takes so long. so you're gonna kind of give them the information you want and pick your niche and then they're going to custom tailor it to your needs. so pre-built is not true. they're going to build it once you, you know, get in contact with them and they're going to custom make it to you. and that's a big difference. so why would someone buy a pre-built store instead of just building one on their own? well, you don't have time or the knowledge to build a high functioning, high converting website. you might not understand seo, you mig.

How To Start Dropshipping With $0 | STEP BY STEP | NO SHOPIFY & NO ADS! (FREE COURSE)

my name is isabella. i am the owner of two six figure earning online businesses, and today i'm gonna be showing you how to build a successful drop shipping store with zero dollars, without shopify and with zero ads. so that means zero dollars that you guys can start this store with, and you will not have to worry about dumping any money to start this project. i actually care about your pockets. a lot of gurus on youtube recommend using shopify, which i do not recommend, since they do have monthly fees. i don't recommend getting shopify or using shopify unless your business is already a six figure earning business. there are so many free website hosts out there that you guys can use for free, which i'm gonna be showing you guys how to utilize one of those today. so people do charge over thousands of dollars for courses, just like this one. so in exchange for this information today, i just ask that you hit that like button and subscribe to my channel so i can continue to make videos like this for you guys. so why should you start a drop shipping store? is this the right business model for you? i recommend drop shipping for those that are just starting out selling online, that don't want to invest any money up front that you want to start a side hustle. and the great thing about drop shipping is that you can do it from anywhere in the world. you can target the united states and be in a completely different country, and then you don't have to worry about inventory or shipping products yourself. in this video, you will learn how to find winning products to sell, to find your niche. you're going to learn how to create a free logo and name. i'm also going to show you guys how to set up a free online store- zero dollars monthly- that you guys can use. i'm also going to show you guys how to add the products to your online store, how to fulfill your drop shipping orders once an order is placed, how to market your online store for free- never buy ads, guys- and i'm also going to go over this one thing that a lot of people don't go over, which is kind of just the legal side of drop shipping and the tax basics of drop shipping, which it's not going to be advice. with that point, i'm just going to tell you guys what i personally did. nothing in this video is actual legal advice. this is just what i personally did. so let's find a product to sell and let's figure out what your niche is going to be. so i utilize a couple different ways and you guys can do this either on your cell phone, on your smartphone, or you guys can do this on your computer- it doesn't really matter- and when i'm researching products to sell, i use tik tok, i use aliexpress and alibaba to research, i use amazon just to see trending products and then i also use google. so you're gonna be using these four things today that you guys can all do from your laptop or phone. so what is drop shipping? i'm gonna tok about this quickly, just for beginners that are unsure about the drop shipping model. so a customer will place an order on your website, on your online store, in order for 200. obviously we don't work with these big numbers. typically they're smaller products, but this is just an example. so the customer places an order on your store for 200 and then you're going to go to your supplier. you're going to find this product online for cheaper, so you're going to charge 200 in your store for this product, but you found a supplier that has it for 150.. so you're going to place the order for your customer for 150. you're going to take their 200.. instead of you shipping the product, the supplier is going to ship the product and then the supplier ships the product directly to your customer. so your store is just the middle man between the customer and the supplier and for doing this, you get to keep 50 profit of this sale. so if you guys are familiar with my channel, i always say it's 25 the product and 75 how you market it. so the questions to ask yourself is: how entertaining is this product? can you relate this product to your own life? what content can you actually create with this product and how much content can you create with this product? because the marketing side of it is more important than the product itself. so the top niche categories for 2022 and probably beyond 2022 is beauty, pets, tiknology, kids, gifts, photography and fitness. i'm going to show you guys a couple of examples and let's dive right into this tutorial and i'm going to show you guys how you guys can find products to sell in 2022. so i want you guys to go on to google and type in tiktok- trend discovery. we're going to search for that right now. so it's this one right here: trend discovery, hot content on tiktok. click on this. tiktok is definitely the most popular social media right now, meaning that there are people that are running ads on it. although we are not going to run ads on it because we don't have to, tiktok shows your videos without you having to pay for ads. that's the beauty of tiktok. so, but we're still going to use what people are running ads as, just as a reference to see. so i'm just going to click select, all here. i'm gonna select united states, because i personally target the united states when i was drop shipping, and then go ahead and just scroll down and we're gonna try to see and look for products and you guys can see a lot of these um, people, i think they're selling mostly digital products or apps. so you guys can get a lot of different ideas of things that people are selling on tik tok and what people are actually buying ads for, even though you're not going to buy ads. what's crazy is that all of these things- the people that they bought these ads- they didn't have to do this, because tiktok pushes out your content. if you have good content, it'll push it out. this is actually the type of product i recommended in one of my previous videos on my youtube channel. people really love anything that you can create content-wise, that's something satisfying and that also adds value, which is why i love this person's content, how they're promoting this product again. they could have did this without buying ads and could have made their business viral without buying ads, which is how i grew my business on tik tok. but you guys know that if you've watched my other videos, i don't recommend buying ads because it does harm your profit margin, and i tok about this more on my youtube channel if you guys want to get a reasoning of why i don't agree with buying ads. so i found this smart hula hoop on tiktok. it was a trending item, so i decided to look into this product and because this stuck out to me as a drop shipping product, i decided to base this video on this product today, just as an example to show you guys. now, obviously, with this kind of product, you do have to show your face because you're showing off a fitness type product. as you guys can see, there's so many products across tiktok that you guys can still sell without showing your face. if you guys are unfamiliar with my business, this is my e-commerce story body fold that i grew just from tiktok without paying for any ads, as you guys can see- the link is in my bio right here and you guys can see how i did my bio and everything. but you guys can see that i sell and i make sales. this one got one million views and i don't even show my face. now i do sell products that i ship myself, which i explain why i do that on my youtube channel. but i just want to show you guys an example that you guys can sell products online without showing your face. i hardly ever show mine- very rarely do i show mine like right here, but that's a very rare occurrence and my most viral videos don't include my face, and one niche that might work good for one person might be different for another. so the first thing that i do when i find a product that might be a potential product to sell is i google it. so i typed in hula hoop exercise to see what would come up, so you guys can see right away. this dh gate listing came up and if you guys are unfamiliar with dhgate, dhgate is very similar to aliexpress, so obviously
