I Tried Dropshipping With $0! (13 Year Old)

hello, this is my first time vlogging shipping. it's a very trending business model right now, so i'm gonna try it. here are the rules. i start off with zero dollars. okay, so with. that makes the challenge very hard. i just have one month and my goal is to reach 1 000 by the end of my summer break. can i do it? stay tuned to find out. um, so now my plan is that i'm just gonna scroll on tiktok and see if i can find a trending product. okay, guys, so i found this product on tiktok and this account has been very trendy like two months ago, but now especially, it's the summer, so people do like to go outdoors. so i think this water bottle has this cool water. water can be useful, you know. it can store your snacks and your water, and so, yeah, i think i'm gonna create a account for this product, make a logo and just start posting. right, i'll post one video right now and one other video in a couple hours, and i'm just gonna update you guys, um, about tomorrow and tell you guys how it did next day. what's up y'all? it's like 11: 00 in the night, and look at this: 12k total likes across all our videos. that's insane. we got like 240 followers. also, i'm dude, people are liking this. right change of plans. i'm just gonna build my store tomorrow morning- it's currently day two, if you guys didn't see that, and i'm just gonna sleep now- build my store tomorrow, update you guys and yeah, we'll put the link in our bio and we'll see if we get any sales. we have to. right, look how many followers and likes we got. like at least one or two people want to buy. let's hope that and let's go to bed next day. well, guys, it's about 11 o'clock in the morning and i just got finished building the store. i put the link in my tiktok accounts bio. oh, and here let me show you guys. so here is our home page. we got our logo, we got the announcement bar. yeah, they don't know for tiktoks, bad vibes never stood a chance. i i love that. i added the shop now. here's the product, beautiful details. i'm selling it for 24.99. i'll break down the profit and costs later. there's a buy now faqs. same thing again, and i added all these pages: shipping policy, return policy, tracker order, blah, blah. all right, so here's the cost breakdown. we sell it for 24.99. the product cost is 1811. that might seem like a lot, but i researched on amazon and if they're selling it for like 30 on like aliexpress, this is the best price- cj, drop shipping and everything. they're just selling it for like 20, so i think 1811 is the best price. so that leaves us with 688. when profit one dollar to send us like the shopify fee, that leaves us with the final 5.86 in profit on every sale and just the checkup. on our tiktoks they've been doing really good. we have about 600 followers now. yep, now i'll update you guys. tomorrow we'll tok how our tiktoks did and i'm probably gonna post another tiktok right now. so, yeah, see you tomorrow. what's up, guys? it's like nine o'clock at night and i'm back with some more good news. check this out. we got 2 000 followers, so now we can finally add the store link in our bio. like i actually gained these followers so fast and i actually didn't post that much in the past few days. i just posted five videos. so, um, i think i'm just gonna post one tomorrow afternoon and that's it. and a bigger update is that i i ordered this bottle from amazon. it's going to arrive in about five days, so when we get it, we'll be able to film our own content, and even more in quantity and better in quality. so, yeah, and, and here's the thing, look at this, look at this. all right, if you see, here i actually got a sale, this is legit, i'm not joking. look, i'm literally refreshing my screen. there's 200 store sessions. there's like one view right now, i don't know. so what happened is, um, before selling this product for 24.99, but i forgot to change the shipping price to zero. but this person actually paid five dollars for shipping. so i mean, i'm taking it, i'm just gonna fulfill his order when i get his money and, yeah, that's first money by us. yay, we finally have something in our bank next day. hello guys, it's day four. it's like one o'clock in the afternoon. so today, the whole day i've just been working on this, on adding this other product under store, because other people thought that, um, the bottle we were already selling was too expensive, even though our profit margin is just like a couple dollars. so actually found a new product. so there's the catalog and here it is. it's like this double sided water bottle. people have been requesting to get this one. so i did the raven bottle 4.0. it's 14.99 and if you were to see it on here: it cut on aliexpress at 710. that leaves us with 789, and that's the shopify transaction fees and it leaves us with 716 in profit. so that's much better than the old profit and people seem to like it more because i just posted this bottle on tiktok. so when you look at our tiktok, uh, we have we gained 2756 followers with over 100 000 likes, which is very good. i just posted about it. if you can't make up, your already got 40 likes with just 424 views, which is very good. we've just been trending for the past couple days, which is very good, and i'm and because of that, hey, we finally have something in our bank, so we got a sale, which is very good. oh, and i'm probably going to update you guys tomorrow morning how many sales we get today. let's hope we actually get sales on the new bottle of the old one. they're both in our store, if you got confused. so, yeah, update you guys tomorrow, i guess. bye next day. sad news: uh, our tik-tac-toe got the end. so, um, now i have no way of marketing and we're left with just the one sale we got yesterday in which we got like 9.40 profit- okay, i mean dollars- in four days. that's not that bad. uh, i think i'm actually gonna close the challenge here. uh, i'm gonna do some more cool challenges about drop shipping and shopify on this channel, so make sure to subscribe. uh, i really want to build like a little good community around here. so, yeah, i mean this video was just to um show you guys that it's actually possible to start online business with zero dollars. well, it's very hard, it's very hard and you need like fifty percent left that your videos will go viral. most luck, yeah. so i mean i had some luck. i had a sale, but my tiktok count got banned at like 3 000 followers. so, yeah, i'll see you guys next week with a new video. peace.

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.

How To Actually Start A Dropshipping Business (FREE Guide)

many of you guys watching have probably heard of Shopify dropshipping, but are just wondering: how the heck do you actually do it? and I completely understand you. drop shipping is one of those business models. we have tons of people online toking about how profitable it is and how you can make thousands of dollars every single month while living at home just on a laptop, and it's true. but, to be honest, there's an overwhelming amount of new people coming into the space having a little bit of success, who really have no business sharing information on Drop Shipping and Shopify as a whole, and, in turn, it leaves a lot of you guys clueless and unsure as to exactly where to start with the business model, and I completely understand the frustration. so, since I'm such a nice and generous guy, I'm going to show you exactly how to actually start your very own Shopify business right here, right now, and the best part is, it's completely free. I've been Drop Shipping since 2017. I've generated millions of dollars with the business model, and so I know a thing or two about it. it's not like I just had my first hundred dollar day and I'm coming on here to make videos. it's not like that by any means. now there's also going to be a huge announcement at the end of the video. so make sure you stik around. it's going to be in an insane opportunity where you could potentially win thousands and thousands and even tens of thousands of dollars for simply just starting Drop Shipping and having a successful store. but I'll wait to explain that till the end of the video. so just stik around, take notes and then, by the end of the video, you're gonna have an insane opportunity on your hands that I think, is like one of its kind. so just sit tight and hang on, get a notepad ready, because we honestly have a ton of work to do, so let's get into it. first things first, we need to make a Shopify store, so I will have a link below. but this is essentially the backbone of your business and this is exactly where you'll be housing your website. so once you put an email in- I created a simple one that sounds very clever: subscribe to seb's channel. if you're watching this, subscribe might as well. I'm showing you, guys, how to start a Shopify business. so then, once you do that, just click Start your free trial, and then this will essentially take you through a ton of stuff that you don't honestly even need to do so. just click Skip, Skip and Skip. you don't even need to put a store name in. you can change it at any time, so it does not really matter. you will need to select your country, so select that I'm currently in us, and then for create a shopping ID. I just continue with Google and then select my email and then that's kind of it. your Shopify store is now being built and it's not like it's going to be completed, but you'll have the account now. so now you can actually lay the framework and start building out the store. I'll quickly go over, though how to actually set all this stuff up and how to use your Shopify store. so this is the home page. this is where you're going to start seeing all your orders and stuff. essentially, like, it's not going to show up right now because we haven't picked a plan and done anything, so it's going to try and like force us to do tons of stuff like add some apps, make products, do a name, customize the theme domain, all that stuff and tons of other good stuff. so that is the home page, but once you have this all set up, it will show you the orders you have today, the visits and stuff like that, and then orders. this is essentially once people place an order. this is where the info will go. and then, for the products tab, this is, if you guys want to guess, this is where all the products show up. so I'll show you guys exactly how to add products to your store and how to fulfill them, even like when you get orders in and your customers actually place an order and they show up here- how to Auto fulfill them. so you guys don't need to use AliExpress- ditch that old stuff, it doesn't work anymore. there's other, better ways to fulfill your orders with Shopify- and so I'll show you how to do all that stuff: how to add products. and then customers: finances analytiks is actually very important. this is going to show you sales sessions, returning customer rate, your conversion rate. so if 100 people land on your site and only one person buys, it will be a one percent conversion rate. it even breaks it down further and just tons of good stuff. so this is the backbone of your business. but, more importantly, what we need to do is go to apps. so what we're going to do is just type in what's called Zen drop. so type that in and this is going to be where you actually fulfill your orders and once customers Place orders, they are going to be the company that is helping you out with getting the product from their warehouse into the customer's hands automated. so there's a way to do it completely automated, where you literally don't even have to click, place order or fulfill order. they handle everything. we've done thousands of orders per day with zendrop. they are an amazing supplier and Company. I want have an affiliate link. I don't want to scare you guys off and think like Zen drops a scam and I'm just doing this video to help them out. I'm not at all. but for password, we will just put in, uh, something random and then let's do this. let's hope I remembered it. I think that's it for phone number. I'm gonna do a basic one. hopefully that works. we'll see a text message and then let's see if that works. yeah, cool, that works. so we're good to go. the accounts made. I didn't put my real phone number in, so don't try calling me. but once you get into the account, this is where the fun begins. so now you can just kind of surf around four cool products and see essentially what you want to sell. you can do this. there are tons of other ways to find products. now I kind of already know products that sell well, but if you guys want more in-depth details on product research and stuff, I will have a link below for a free Drop Shipping course. it's completely free. it took me a few weeks to film and I released it for free with one of my business partners, Sebastian Georgia. so again, the course is free. we're like giving you everything I do on a daily basis for the Drop Shipping business for free. so again, all the link below for that. like I did mention, I already know some products that are working well, so we can just do like. there are a few I'm seeing right now that do well. we can just kind of pick one of them. I always like to sell problem solving products, so we can just say: like this hot and cold gel therapy mask, it's a good product. I've seen it on tiktok a little bit, so we'll just click it and then essentially all you have to do to get the product from zendrop onto your website. you don't need to go on here and then go to products and create a product. it's nothing like that and this is completely ditching AliExpress. all you do is again add that app, click add to import list, go to import list and then right here, all you'll need to do is edit your description if you want to edit the variants. so one of the things you'll need to do is edit the sale price. for myself, I would want to have at least like a 3X markup, so we'll just say: nine dollars plus six dollars is going to be 15.. so we can sell this for 39.99. that's a decent enough margin- and then just plug that in for every single color- and I'm just copy and pasting it just to make my life easy- and then from there we're profiting to twenty five dollars per sale. so if we get 10 sales, we will be profiting 250 dollars. next, you need to select the photos. so make sure you are not selecting photos that look like they came from AliExpress or came from somewhere bad, because if you guys do that, it's gonna look scammy. I saw other videos where people were trying to show you guys how to make a website and the photos all look like this and like this and like this and like this and like this. that's not what actually works, and take this from someone who actually knows what they're.

I Tried Dropshipping With $100 (Realistic Results)

the past few years i've managed to make over seven figures drop shipping. but then i thought to myself, what if i lost it all, all the money, all the knowledge, all the connections, and i would have to start all over again with only 100 to my name? well, lucky for you guys, in this video i'm gonna go over exactly what i would do if i were to just start with 100 and potentially just maybe cut myself a lambo at the end of this video. so i am starting with 100 to my name. but wait, there's more. there are a few guidelines set in place, some terms and conditions. perhaps that will make this challenge a little bit harder. rule number one is i can't use my past connections, old influencers, past suppliers that have given me winning products and just overall, anything that i know of that can help influence this challenge to make it easier for me. rule number two is i have to start a brand new shopify store, meaning i also have to start with a brand new product that i've never tested before, just so that it's fair and it's as if i started from complete scratch. rule number three is i can't use my personal brand to gain anything out of this challenge, meaning shout it out on my instagram or just do anything to influence it in that sort of way. and last but not least, as you guys already know is i only have a set budget of 100. so now that you guys understand the rules, let's let the games begin. so the first step in the process is to actually find a winning product. now, since we only do have a budget of 100, i'm gonna be going the tiktok organic route, meaning posting content on tik tok and hope one of them blow up so that we can get a lot of visitors to our site for virtually free. now, personally, if you're on a budget, i think this is the best method because you don't have to spend any money on advertising and, in the case that a tiktok does blow up, you can get a lot of sales. so the way i'm actually gonna find a winning product is scroll through my tiktok feed. for a while here i'm gonna sit here, chill, scroll and since my tiktok feed is optimized to finding winning products- since i just like a bunch of drop shipping ads and drop shipping pages- we might come across something that may be interesting. so i'm gonna go ahead and do that now and get back to you guys once i think i found something pretty interesting or worthy of selling demon. this is the reality. sitting there, there's some on the radio back and forth, just had a heart attack and i heard the little one who's climate change. so you have 300. so a lot of people think. so a lot of people think that i'm faking these videos, but i'm going to show you guys once. i don't know, i think i may have just found a product that may be worthwhile testing. okay, so pretty much what this is is a speaker and you guys can pretty much see you connect your phone to this bluetooth metal thing and once you place that object on any surface, like something metal or glass, it pretty much amplifies the sound. so i'm gonna go ahead and follow this page and you guys can pretty much see that they're posting videos consistently, honestly, and it looks like they're getting consistent likes and comments on every single video that they post. so let's go ahead and check out their store and it looks like it's a general store that they turned into a one product store from the name of it. they're selling it for forty dollars and they have some pretty nice images here, some gifs and description, the size- overall really nice, and they have some reviews, so this might be a potential product, and i'm actually really excited to test this product out. the views are outrageous and they post really consistently and it looks like it's not too old. so you guys can see, their first video was on the 19th, which is insane. so this is a product that could potentially get us our lambo, okay. so right away i went ahead and searched the product on amazon, hoping i could find it- it was the fourth option- and went ahead and purchased it for 38. and then i also went on aliexpress to see how much i could source this product for, which came to be around 21, and i could always get this lower once i start getting more orders. but since we're selling it for 40 dollars and we're getting it for 21, we have a profit margin of 19.. so out of our 100 budget, we spent 38 of that to order the product, which leaves us with a total of 62 left to spend. but anyway, now that we have to wait for the product to arrive, i'm going to go ahead and use this time to actually create the store for this product. porta speaker: a speaker that is portable and you could pretty much stik anywhere and amplify the noise. well, hey, i think we got ourselves a brand name. porta speaker sounds pretty nice and pretty easy to remember. now, since we are on a budget of 100, i'm gonna be going ahead and making the logo myself. i'm gonna be using a 30 day shopify free trial, which, if you guys want to do the same, you can use the link below. so we're pretty much not gonna have to pay for shopify for the first 30 days. so i'm gonna get to work, create the store and then hopefully we get the amazon product so that we can start filming some content, posting the tik toks and just start driving traffic to the store to see if anyone would actually buy from this store. but anyway, let's go ahead and start the store build. okay, so our dropify shoplifting store is finally complete and now it's time to review it. ladies and gentlemen, i present to you porta speakerus- what, okay? so here is the product page where pretty much all of our customers are going to be redirected to. you guys can see we have a few images right here so you can just scroll through. we have the name of the product with a few reviews under it and you can see we have free shipping and 50 off, right under the price, and then, going into the description, we have a headline with a description under it, along with a few gifs. i'm going to be changing these gifs once i actually get the product and i'm going to pretty much record custom gifs so that they're a little more personalized and people who come to our site get a more personalized experience, but for now i just have these temporary gifs that i have just as a placeholder. we have another headline and description, another gif, another headline description and a gif, and then we have a faq section for customers who have any questions or doubts about the product, and you can see how this works. it's pretty much a drop down menu scrolling down into the reviews. we have all these reviews. reviews are very important and you could pretty much just take these from the supplier that you're sourcing the product from, because it's pretty much the same exact product. and that concludes our presentation for the porta speaker website. so we found the winning product. we have our site built out. now the last step is actually to get the product and create a tiktok page for it and then just start posting loads of custom content for the products that we can potentially get on the for you page of different potential customers that will potentially be the holder of the one and only porta speaker [Music]. okay, so the product has finally arrived from bezos's hands into my possession and now we're gonna go ahead and unbox this right in front of you guys. so let's go ahead and see what we got. i present to you the porta speaker. wow, it honestly looks pretty solid. okay, so i'm gonna go ahead and set this up and see what we can actually do with this thing and if it actually even works as expected. all right, so i just set it up. so i'm gonna go ahead and play some non-copyrighted music so that susan doesn't cut my paycheck for the month, but i'm gonna go ahead and show you guys how this works. it's honestly pretty cool. all right, so i have my music ready to go. i'm gonna move my mic actually, so you guys can pretty much hear everything that's happening, and i'm gonna go ahead and click play without this on the table and watch what happens once i actually put it on the table. [Music]. that actually works, believe it or not. we're actually almost pr.

How To Start Shopify Dropshipping as a Teenager (2023)

this video I'm going to be showing you guys how you guys can start a Shopify Drop Shipping as a teenager, under the age of 18, completely legally and legit. let's get right into the video. so about a year ago I made this video with the same exact title, just for the year of 2022, but that video is sort of outdated. but it did so well in terms of analytiks and you guys actually did love that video. so this video is going to be an updated video a year later on how you guys can start Shopify Drop Shipping under the age of 18 completely legally as a teenager. so basically, with Shopify they do restrict you to sort of be over 18 for the tax reasons, but this method will be showing you guys how to start actually making money with Shopify Drop Shipping, because Drop Shipping is such a viable path where you guys can start making money without having to have too much money or too much sort of anything. it's something where you never actually see the product, so you don't need to have inventory, a big money startup or even a good amount of followers on social media. so this video is going to sort of go from an A to Z guide on how you guys can legally start Shopify Drop Shipping as a teenager under 18.. so this video isn't going to show everything you need to know. I actually do have a Shopify playlist. if you guys do want to look up how to find winning products or how to create a store design to make it very professional and to get more sales, and basically everything from finding products to making your social media accounts and everything like that, check out the Shopify playlist on my YouTube channel. but this video is only going to go over how to actually set up the account. alright, so now that we toked enough for this video, what we're gonna do is go over to the Shopify website right over here, so we're gonna go to shopifycom on a new email and everything like that, so we could basically start the process of this. so, right from the bat, you see, start a free trial and enjoy three months of Shopify for one dollar per month on select plans. that's the plan you guys do want to sign up on, because for three months, you guys could pay only three dollars to actually start everything with all the features that Shopify gives and have your website actually hosted on Shopify for these three months for a very low price of three dollars. so, just for the startup, it's going to ask you a bunch of questions on how you guys can get started. so it says which of these best describes you, and any of these questions doesn't really have any effect on your store, so we're just going to press. I'm just starting right now. for the start, we would like to sell an online store, and that's the one you guys actually need to press for. that you're going to press next. and then what do you plan to sell? first? it's going to give you a bunch of options. it doesn't really matter. but for this you can either press Drop Shipping products or I'll decide later. basically, because you're on a Drop Shipping video, I'm assuming you guys are going to start Drop Shipping. so a store name: optional. you guys can change this later, but I'm going to just press next. and then where you're located- the United States- and then this is where you actually need to sign up with an email. so we are just going to do some random email right here. let's do a random password that you guys choose, and then we're gonna press on create Shopify ID. so right over here it's now building your store and you know you can do everything up to this as a actual setup to you know, not get into any problems first, but when you guys actually want to start selling and start getting payments and stuff like that, that's when you have to verify your identity, which requires you to be over 18.. so this next step in the video, once that loads, is I'm going to be showing you guys exactly how to get around that. you know legally not really around, but how to get that set up in the first place. all right, so now the next screen that you guys should see is the Shopify home screen, where it's going to be a setup guide on seven tasks that you guys have to do. these are things that are sort of recommended for your store to make your store look a lot more professional and sort of just get a good setup guide, just like it says. so the first one is the fine Shopify Drop Shipping products to sell, name your store at Brandon assets, customize your theme, a domain, set up Shopify payments and all of that. but you guys are gonna go through these and every store should do that. so if you guys are doing that, make sure you guys do pause the video right now and actually come back to this video after you did those steps, but the only steps that you need to really do to actually make sure your store is all good and all set legally is go over to set up Shopify payments, and this is how you guys actually can get orders and actually get sales and start making money on your store. so what you guys are going to want to do is press on activate Shopify payments, just like this, and for this you need to add an address. so I'm going to put in a random address right now. hopefully that doesn't get me into trouble. I'm just trying to show you guys the sort of setup right here. but for this name. this is where you guys have to put your parents names in, because that's someone that's over the age of 18 and so like, if you put your own first name and then your ID shows that you're under 18, Shopify is gonna shut down your account and kick you out of this. what you guys need to do is put your parents name, because your parent will match their ID and and their ID it shows they're over 18. so that's sort of the way you guys can start Shopify Drop Shipping under 18: by just having your parents sort of sign up and use them, for you know the tax information and stuff like that, and all the money you get paid you just contribute to their taxes, um, when taxes come in for that Shopify season, if you make a certain amount of money. so, right here, let's just put in some random name- uh, sorry, if this is anyone's actual name or someone's, uh, actual address, um, let's see, let's go with: was this Kansas? right here, um, and then a phone number. it will go with some a random phone. right here, sorry, if this is your number, which? what are the odds? uh, three or four, eight, five, one, oh, five, not six, all right. and then you can either put the store as a registered business business- which I doubt if you guys are Drop Shipping, it's gonna be a registered business, a business like a LLC, an incorporation, a trust, or, if a trust is even a business, but any of that stuff we're gonna press next over here. and then, once that loads, Shopify payments is going to be set up. but that's not the only step. so now you have to complete your account. set up so that your account is actually a good standing, complete your information about your business, secure your account with two-step authentikation, which basically means that someone hacks your password, you're gonna need that and then add banking information. so you're going to press submit details over here and then this is where you put in a business type. so if it's if it's an LLC or a partnership Corporation or if you're just an invis, an individual, why can I tok? you're gonna put things like this: so an EIN is in is if you have an LLC, but if most of you don't, so skip that, put the address in, then personal details, so this, none of this can be fake. all of this has to be real because it has to match up with your ID. so if you have your first name, a last name, your parents, real date of birth and then their SSN, and don't just put in your parents information, if you know it actually, go tok to them and go find out if they're willing to do this for you, because if they're not and then they see random things on their tax account that they didn't do and it comes back to you, you're going to be in a lot of trouble. so with them at least, um, and you may be screwing them over in taxes and stuff like that and money. so make sure you guys do tok to them about this and you'll try to convince them, uh be.

How I Made $11K in A Day Dropshipping as a TEEN

this is how i made over eleven thousand dollars in just one day with drop shipping. yo, what's going on, guys? my name is fosurasani. i'm a 16 year old entrepreneur. um, i'm going to be explaining how i made over 11 000 in just one day with drop shipping. so this video isn't going to be like super in-depth, because nothing that i did, um, was special to like seeing this much success. making eleven thousand dollars in a day is the same thing as doing 200 in a day. it's just the matter of scaling up what's working for you. so this video is going to be kind of explaining the steps i took before eleven thousand dollars per day. uh, to the day that i actually did over five figures in one day. so it's going to be a fairly brief overlook on how i actually did that and how maybe you can do the same. so my history and e-commerce has been going on for one year, but i started drop shipping in october. um, i found out about drop shipping in the summer. never thought that i'd be able to like succeed at it, but i was wrong. um, i started in october. uh, first month i did a thousand profit. the next month i did 10 000 and then the month after was 30 000.. so, yeah, i'm gonna explain kind of what i did to change like the amount i was making per month with drop shipping. so there's three fairly simple steps that i took to actually scale up all my stores. so the first step is hopping on a trend or finding a really hot selling product. the second step is actually building up a nice, aesthetikally pleasing site that users would like to purchase from. and the third step is driving traffic to your store, whether that be through instagram influencers, twitter ads, snapchat ads or facebook ads. in my case, i did influencer ads through instagram and then scaled up using facebook, and this is a step that many, many, many, many, many online businesses use, and i i did the same because i know it works and it's proven to work all right. so step one: finding the hot product for me. i knew what was selling already. i had friends that were selling it. i was like, all right, why not? why not just copy that and see if it would work for me? and lo and behold, it did work. it was in the men's fashion niche. so i had the store running one week prior to the five figure day and it was doing a couple hundred every day and then it scaled up to a thousand and, uh, keep in mind, i was getting all this traffic from instagram influencers and i had my facebook pixel running on my site, so it was collecting all the data for the big day where i did five figures, just collected all that data, got all the orders in and got some good capital to invest into the big day of ads where i decided to just scale out of it. so on the day that i scaled, i spent probably 1500 on ads and did 11k in sales. i'm going to show you guys on my shopify app- um, it was december 9th 2017- that i did 11.1 k in sales. i'll just refresh that so you guys can see that it's legit. again, i'll explain how i was able to drive this much traffic and convert so well in my store and you can see in the graph that the sales were dispersed throughout time and you can see the really big peak right there and that's whenever the influencer post went viral. so i'll explain more about virality and how to achieve that in your ad copy and then you can see: on december 10th, i lowered the ad spend and, um, sales sales went down, obviously because i wasn't driving that much traffic and, as you can see, it was still really well. there was the proof that i was actually able to make 14k in a weekend and uh kind of how. how it was actually able to do that much was because a few of the ad copies went viral. so with virality you obviously gain a lot of traction. you go crazy in sales. i have a friend, tanner planes. he actually did, i think, 18k in a day. that was insane. that's kind of what inspired me to just like find the hot product and just scale out- a scale out of that kind of like how he did. his ad copy went viral, my ad copy went viral. so that's kind of how i was able to see so much crazy, crazy success with the product that i was selling. so it was basically because it was viral. i got kind of lucky because the product was selling and i jumped onto it because i was smart enough to realize that it was selling super well. so in that one week i ran the influencer ads, got the facebook targeting all that stuff for the long term and on that day, saturday, december 9th i believe, it did 11.1 k because of the viral ad copy and because i had the customers targeted down. and one thing i forgot to mention was i was also collecting a bunch of emails. so on the day, december 9th- i sent out a mass email to all the people who were buying for me. i was like: yo, i'm having a really big sale, so come and check it over and then buy something. so it was something around that. i was obviously not that informal. i made sure to build up the urgency to come and purchase from me asap, and people did so. with mailchimp i was able to gain a lot of traction and a lot of sales through the email retargeting, and that's something a lot of people don't really tok about. you just have to keep in mind that whenever you're collecting all these emails, it's basically free marketing, because you're getting the traffic to your site and then you have the same customers who have entered in their emails. so you have a huge list of hundreds of people that can become possible customers, even if they were customers already. so you can retarget with your um email list and you can also email all the people in your email list and make so much money off that. that's one thing i don't really see many people toking about. is um, actually driving all a lot of traffic through your email list. so that's one thing i did to kind of recap the entire ad thing that i was toking about. so i had the influencer ads, i had the facebook ads and i had, um, all these emails being sent up to people who have purchased from me or have abandoned their carts. and that's also one thing i need to tok about is abandoned cart recovery. so there's an app- i don't, i don't know what's called, i think it's called beautiful abandoned carts. but basically, after two hours someone abandons your cart, you get it's an automatik. email is sent to them saying: oh look, you forgot something in your cart. do you want to buy it before the sew ends? and again, just build up a bunch of urgency in your copy and then, boom, you probably will convert really well. so i'm kind of going in a weird order. i didn't follow one, two and three. one was finding the hot product. two was building a site for how to tok about that. um, well, well, building up a site is really easy with shopify. since there's already so many nice themes, i just go with the debut theme. i add a nice background, i use the header. i make sure the header drives urgency. i download a bunch of apps that also drive urgency. i'll have those linked in the description down below as well. as, if you want to start your own shopify store, i have a link in the description. yeah, so i build up a nice, clean looking site. so whenever someone clicks through facebook, it looks nice. whenever they click through instagram, it just flows really well, and i know thaddeus toks about that too. um, just got to make a site that looks really nice and flows well from different social media, so that's exactly what i did. i have a pretty good background in design and development in like the website space. i've been doing client work for that for a few years now. i designed apps. so having a good, strong background in design- even with like influencer ads and facebook ads, it really helps. so you can use a website called canvacom to create facebook ads, instagram ads and also logos. so that's what i use a lot of time for a lot of my design work. and i also use photoshop because i have, like, all the creative cloud assets. loud car. it's really not that hard to start a store. to start seeing success with it. you just need to build up a nice looking site, get really good ads and find a really hot product. it's. it's not that hard. a lot of people overthink it and they're like, oh m.
