00:00:58	00:01:01	people and helps my channel grow and
00:00:59	00:01:02	without further ado
00:01:01	00:01:04	let's get started with the video being
00:01:02	00:01:05	transparent is one of the most important
00:01:04	00:01:06	things to me
00:01:05	00:01:07	so i want to show you some of these
00:01:06	00:01:08	shipping times first hand on my
00:01:07	00:01:10	dashboard
00:01:08	00:01:12	so you can see this is the shopify
00:01:10	00:01:12	dashboard here and i'm going to click on
00:01:12	00:01:14	orders
00:01:12	00:01:16	we're going to go to fulfillment status
00:01:14	00:01:17	fulfilled
00:01:16	00:01:19	we're going to change the date to the
00:01:17	00:01:21	last 30 days
00:01:19	00:01:23	and then we'll just sort by the oldest
00:01:21	00:01:24	ones that way we can pull some that have
00:01:23	00:01:26	arrived so
00:01:24	00:01:27	we'll take this one and we'll take this
00:01:26	00:01:30	one for example
00:01:27	00:01:32	if we click on the link here you can see
00:01:30	00:01:34	that this was delivered in six days
00:01:32	00:01:36	and if we click on this one once again
00:01:34	00:01:38	you can see that it was in six days
00:01:36	00:01:39	and that's using the same exact shipping
00:01:38	00:01:40	method that i'm going to share with you
00:01:39	00:01:42	right now
00:01:40	00:01:44	real quick i just want to explain why
00:01:42	00:01:46	aliexpress is not a sustainable tool to
00:01:44	00:01:48	scale your business
00:01:46	00:01:49	in my business aliexpress really only
00:01:48	00:01:51	has one use
00:01:49	00:01:53	and that is to test new products this is
00:01:51	00:01:55	really the only benefit of this website
00:01:53	00:01:57	there are a ton of sellers
00:01:55	00:01:59	there's a mass variety of products but
00:01:57	00:02:00	when it comes to scaling a product with
00:01:59	00:02:03	this platform
00:02:00	00:02:04	it is not sustainable at all the major
00:02:03	00:02:06	problem with aliexpress
00:02:04	00:02:09	is that there are massive variations
00:02:06	00:02:12	between the suppliers shipping times and
00:02:09	00:02:12	product quality
00:02:19	00:02:23	so when you're fulfilling a product from
00:02:20	00:02:24	this platform it's totally a random game
00:02:23	00:02:26	on if your supplier is going to do a
00:02:24	00:02:27	good job or not the one piece of advice
00:02:26	00:02:30	i can give
00:02:27	00:02:32	in that initial testing phase is study
00:02:30	00:02:34	those suppliers heavily
00:02:32	00:02:35	look at their reviews look at how many
00:02:34	00:02:36	other products they have and how long
00:02:35	00:02:38	they've been in business
00:02:36	00:02:40	just make sure to be very careful on who
00:02:38	00:02:41	you decide to work with
00:02:40	00:02:43	and when you do find somebody that has
00:02:41	00:02:45	the product that you're looking to sell
00:02:43	00:02:46	make sure you message them and build up
00:02:45	00:02:48	some type of rapport
00:02:46	00:02:49	so you know that there's a real person
00:02:48	00:02:50	on the other side that wants to help you
00:02:49	00:02:52	grow
00:02:50	00:02:54	but once again this website is only for
00:02:52	00:02:56	testing products so once you found a
00:02:54	00:02:57	product that is selling well
00:02:56	00:02:59	i'm going to recommend some alternatives
00:02:57	00:03:00	now to take that to the next level
00:02:59	00:03:03	all right so now i'm going to show you
00:03:00	00:03:04	two alternatives to aliexpress that
00:03:03	00:03:06	offer faster
00:03:04	00:03:07	shipping these tools are good for that
00:03:06	00:03:09	first phase of your business
00:03:07	00:03:10	where you're getting maybe five to
00:03:09	00:03:12	twenty orders per day
00:03:10	00:03:13	and you're looking to provide a better
00:03:12	00:03:16	experience for your customers alright so
00:03:13	00:03:18	the first tool is called e-perlo
00:03:16	00:03:20	this is very similar to aliexpress these
00:03:18	00:03:21	products are all shipping from china and
00:03:20	00:03:22	you can see they have a lot of the big
00:03:21	00:03:25	drop shipping products
00:03:22	00:03:26	on here but the major benefit of using
00:03:25	00:03:28	an app like this
00:03:26	00:03:30	is that they provide shipping lines that
00:03:28	00:03:31	you normally wouldn't be able to get
00:03:30	00:03:32	from aliexpress
00:03:31	00:03:35	so you can see that they're offering
00:03:32	00:03:36	yanwen which is a really good shipping
00:03:35	00:03:39	line that even i use
00:03:36	00:03:41	they offer 4px and then they offer the
00:03:39	00:03:43	traditional e-packet from aliexpress
00:03:41	00:03:44	which i wouldn't recommend using right
00:03:43	00:03:46	now it's super slow
00:03:44	00:03:48	so with an app like this you're gonna
00:03:46	00:03:49	get better shipping times but it's gonna
00:03:48	00:03:52	be a little bit more expensive
00:03:49	00:03:53	so if you can afford the cost difference
00:03:52	00:03:55	this is a great
00:03:53	00:03:57	tool for shipping products from china
00:03:55	00:03:57	all right and the second tool is called
00:03:57	00:03:59	spock it
00:03:57	00:04:01	now this app is very similar but the
00:03:59	00:04:03	only difference is that they mainly
00:04:01	00:04:06	focus on products that ship from the us
00:04:03	00:04:06	and canada now the major downside to
00:04:06	00:04:09	spock it
00:04:06	00:04:10	is their product library is not the
00:04:09	00:04:12	greatest
00:04:10	00:04:14	a lot of these products really don't
00:04:12	00:04:16	have major scaling potential
00:04:14	00:04:18	on a drop shipping store but every once
00:04:16	00:04:19	in a while you'll find some pretty cool
00:04:18	00:04:21	stuff like
00:04:19	00:04:23	this plant hanger is pretty nice you can
00:04:21	00:04:24	see that it shifts worldwide in 8 to 14
00:04:23	00:04:25	days
00:04:24	00:04:27	which is pretty good shipping times
00:04:25	00:04:28	compared to alley it's a pretty dope
00:04:27	00:04:30	product
00:04:28	00:04:31	as well honestly put this in my house
00:04:30	00:04:32	then you have something like this which
00:04:31	00:04:35	is also a dropship
00:04:32	00:04:37	product that i think could do all right
00:04:35	00:04:38	especially for the eco-friendly crowd
00:04:37	00:04:40	and you can see that once again it ships
00:04:38	00:04:42	eight to 14 days to the us
00:04:40	00:04:44	so they got a ton of products on here
00:04:42	00:04:45	but like i said it's a good app for fast
00:04:44	00:04:47	shipping
00:04:45	00:04:49	but the actual product library is not
00:04:47	00:04:51	the greatest but anyways these are
00:04:49	00:04:53	two apps that you could use in that
00:04:51	00:04:55	starting phase of your business
00:04:53	00:04:56	now once you start scaling and you want
00:04:55	00:04:58	to crank things up to the next level
00:04:56	00:04:59	and get those juicy six to ten day
00:04:58	00:05:01	shipping times
00:04:59	00:05:03	this is the method that i use and this
00:05:01	00:05:04	is what i recommend you guys try to get
00:05:03	00:05:07	to as soon
00:05:04	00:05:09	as possible let's tok about it so the
00:05:07	00:05:12	best and fastest way to ship products
00:05:09	00:05:14	out of china is actually using a private
00:05:12	00:05:15	agent an agent is somebody who has
00:05:14	00:05:17	connections in china with the
00:05:15	00:05:19	fulfillment centers
00:05:17	00:05:20	the shipping lines and the manufacturers
00:05:19	00:05:22	to help you get the best price and
00:05:20	00:05:24	fastest shipping possible
00:05:22	00:05:25	and to explain the process on how you
00:05:24	00:05:27	work with an agent
00:05:25	00:05:29	i'm actually going to call mine up and
00:05:27	00:05:31	have him break this down for you he has
00:05:29	00:05:33	over 10 years of experience and can do a
00:05:31	00:05:35	much better job explaining than i ever
00:05:33	00:05:35	could
00:05:36	00:05:39	hey what's up yo jordan how's it going
00:05:39	00:05:41	my man
00:05:39	00:05:43	doing good bro if you don't mind i
00:05:41	00:05:45	wanted you to explain a little bit to my
00:05:43	00:05:46	audience about the process of working
00:05:45	00:05:48	with an agent
00:05:46	00:05:50	and how that goes down yeah yeah sure so
00:05:48	00:05:50	this
00:05:50	00:05:56	fulfillment is and it's super easy
00:05:54	00:05:57	really i mean for us we got a website
00:05:56	00:05:59	all you got to do
00:05:57	00:06:00	is to fill out the form give us your
00:05:59	00:06:02	product
00:06:00	00:06:04	we go out there and work for you we're
00:06:02	00:06:06	going to find the best factories
00:06:04	00:06:08	we're going to find the best product
00:06:06	00:06:10	quality and price combination
00:06:08	00:06:12	we're going to improve it for you if you
00:06:10	00:06:13	need it yeah when a brand is free we
00:06:12	00:06:15	need it we use
00:06:13	00:06:17	the most consistent shipping lines as
00:06:15	00:06:18	well and especially if you're comparing
00:06:17	00:06:20	something like all the express man
00:06:18	00:06:21	this is not even drop shipping anymore
00:06:20	00:06:24	we're basically your
00:06:21	00:06:25	supply chain partners and this is not
00:06:24	00:06:27	just
00:06:25	00:06:28	a better drop shipping process it's
00:06:27	00:06:30	really just leveling up
00:06:28	00:06:32	your game so if you want to take it to
00:06:30	00:06:33	the next level and build a longer
00:06:32	00:06:35	lasting brand and just
00:06:33	00:06:38	make a lot more money and just a lot
00:06:35	00:06:40	more consistency
00:06:38	00:06:42	it's been a pleasure working with you
00:06:40	00:06:45	and i hope that this has been helpful to
00:06:42	00:06:45	the people that are watching
00:06:47	00:06:50	let's do it bro let's do it all right
00:06:49	00:06:51	catch you later bro
00:06:50	00:06:53	so that's pretty much exactly what i've
00:06:51	00:06:55	done i worked with value to source my
00:06:53	00:06:56	product for a cheaper cost with the best
00:06:55	00:06:58	possible quality
00:06:56	00:07:00	and we use a private shipping line
00:06:58	00:07:02	called yun express to ship
00:07:00	00:07:03	products with less than 10 days shipping
00:07:02	00:07:05	times so since working with an agent
00:07:03	00:07:07	i've even been able to do a couple extra
00:07:05	00:07:08	things that have elevated my brand to
00:07:07	00:07:10	the next level
00:07:08	00:07:12	i was able to print a custom logo on my
00:07:10	00:07:15	product get my product in
00:07:12	00:07:17	a custom package and i was even able to
00:07:15	00:07:19	work with the manufacturer themselves
00:07:17	00:07:20	to improve the quality of my products
00:07:19	00:07:22	such as the sizing
00:07:20	00:07:23	and the components that go inside of it
00:07:22	00:07:24	and now i'm ordering thousands of these
00:07:23	00:07:25	products
00:07:24	00:07:27	every single week and shipping them
00:07:25	00:07:30	directly with my agent and from using
00:07:27	00:07:31	this method i'm actually getting a 4.3
00:07:30	00:07:33	feedback score from facebook
00:07:31	00:07:35	which makes my ads run much more
00:07:33	00:07:36	effective and allows me to get costs so
00:07:35	00:07:37	much cheaper
00:07:36	00:07:39	so that's pretty much exactly how my
00:07:37	00:07:41	shipping is set up in china
00:07:39	00:07:42	my next stage that i'm getting to is
00:07:41	00:07:44	three day shipping times and i'm gonna
00:07:42	00:07:46	real briefly touch on that before we end
00:07:44	00:07:48	this video so i recently placed a bulk
00:07:46	00:07:50	order of products from china
00:07:48	00:07:52	to a united states fulfillment center
00:07:50	00:07:54	and my goal for 2021 is to ship the
00:07:52	00:07:56	majority of our orders out of this
00:07:54	00:07:57	fulfillment center doing it this way
00:07:56	00:07:59	ends up being cheaper in the long run
00:07:57	00:08:01	and it gives my customers the best
00:07:59	00:08:02	possible experience when shopping with
00:08:01	00:08:03	us i'm going to link a fulfillment
00:08:02	00:08:05	center down below that you guys could
00:08:03	00:08:07	send your products to and ship them from
00:08:05	00:08:08	if you're interested in us fulfillment

00:08:08	00:08:11	want to see in another video

00:08:16	00:08:18	future but that's pretty much all for
00:08:18	00:08:20	this video
