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.

I Paid Fiverr to Create a Dropshipping Business

in this video. I'm gonna pay different people on Harvard to create different parts of a drop shipping business. I'm then gonna put it all together, launch it and see what happens. I'm gonna be paying somebody to create an advertisement at the web site, a logo, the whole shebang. I'm really excited about this. I'm personally curious to see what happens when I actually launch the store. so let's just get right into this one. [Music]. yo, what's good, guys, it's your boy. be heads up back with another video. now the first thing I want to address is: let's go ahead and get the elephant out of the room here. what's going on with my lips? I was out in the cold last weekend. it was windy and I ended up with this. I hope it's not gonna be too notikeable distracting on camera. I guess we'll just see, but as you've read in title and in the little intro, just did you already know we're gonna be doing in this video? but for the two people watching this video who are not sure what Fiverr is, it's basically a website where people can put up freelance services and charge anywhere from five dollars to a couple thousand dollars for them, and the variety of different services you can purchase on this website is pretty crazy. I mean you can get anything from website design to somebody managing your tinder profile. to this guy saying that he's gonna say anything you want a thousand times for five dollars. or this guy from a previous video that I did on Fiverr is saying this for $7.00. I mean, this website has everything on it and in this video we're gonna try to use it to build a full on aliexpress drop shipping business with it. and, by the way, that's when you take a product from China and that cost like four dollars, you build a website around it, sell it on there for $15 and someone purchased it from you. you keep the difference in the middle and just ship this product directly to the end customer. almost forgot, but I have a really good meme to explain this. I just saw this online the other day I had to share with you guys. I mean, you guys get the point. it's a fairly easy to understand business model. however, it is a lot more challenging and difficult in practike, so I'm very curious to see what the people are fiber are gonna come up with for me here. that said, let's go ahead and dive into the computer here and I'll explain what product I chose for this video and that is this posture correction brace right here. views Facebook or Instagram. chances are you've probably already been advertising this product before. there are multiple stores that use this product to hit six, even seven figures earlier in 2019. I mean, this product was selling like hotcakes when it was new. however, at this point it is pretty saturated. but I mean, depending on how the advertisement that we get made turns out and how the website looks, I think it's possible that we can still get some sales out of this. it's three dollars and sixty nine cents, and then it's another three dollars forty eight cents for shipping, and the cool thing is this actually ships from the US. so, shipped from the US, it's gonna be around $7, and if you're confused as to what this product actually is, the seller provides a video for it. so, as you can see, it's a little thing that you put around your shoulders that pulls them back and it's supposed to correct your posture. now that we have a product in mind, let's go ahead and hop- it's a fiber- and, first up, find somebody who can design a website for it. so I'm gonna go ahead and search up drop shipping here. see what we can find. okay, so it looks like there's quite a few people designing website and the prices range anywhere from $35 to. this guy says that he's starting at 385. I know let's go ahead and try this first one, starting at $55 here, five-star rating, which looks promising. I will build six-figure Shopify drop shipping store. that's what we're looking for here, and he got the basic package for 55 up to the $400 premium one and he's got some reviews here. all 5 stars for $55, I think. I think I'm gonna go ahead and just go with this guy. see what happens. let's go ahead and go with a basic plan, since we are only getting one product- drop shipping stores. so I feel like the basic is gonna be just fine. but I am gonna go ahead and dish out an extra $30 to get the website delivered in one day rather than four, because I need this video up by Friday. if I choose four days, I'm not gonna have time to test it, so that's gonna cost an extra $30, bringing our total to 85. but remember, if I wouldn't have a time constraint, this would only cost 55, so let's go ahead and continue with 85, though I mean it's a tax write-off, so it's fine, after checking out at to answer a couple of questions for the seller, such as what the name of the store is gonna be. I didn't think this far ahead, but I figured I wanted to do something with posture. I thought about posture fix. I don't really like it and I figured that was taken, so I put fixed inserts, thesaurus foundry map and got posture revamp. felt like that sounded pretty good and it was available, so went with it and now asked for how the person was gonna build the website. I first had to go out and create a shout buy count. once I did that, the person gave me his email. I then went into the Shopify count and created a new staff account and invited that purged the fiber seller through that email. he got the invitation, accepted it and then he had access to go ahead and design my website. now that we have a website being done and on the way, let's go ahead and try to find somebody to create a drop shipping out for us, because that's what we need. Nags to drop shipping ad, ok, so there's a ton of options for that as well. let's see what we can find here. found this guy right here: $25 for the basic package. he's got 70 reviews, a five-star rating, so it's pretty promising and based on the slow price. so what I'm guessing he's gonna do is go ahead and compile a ton of different videos from around the web, put it into like a 30 second video and then send that back to me so we'll see what he comes up with. but again, I'm gonna have to dish out another extra $20 to get the one-day delivery, because I want to have enough time to go ahead and test out this little project this week. so that's gonna bring our price to $45. let's go ahead and hit select. so now we got a website and an advertisement in progress. now, as you can see here, I'm actually on a logo listing. I don't think we really need to do it for the purpose of this video, but I think I'm going to go ahead and purchase it, as it makes for a good example, because fiber is actually a pretty good website for buying logos. if you're getting into drop shipping and you're not experienced with Photoshop or illustrator, it might be a good idea to buy a logo- a fiver- because it's very affordable. so this thing has over a thousand reviews and it's 4.6 stars- only costs $15 for their pages a package. I'm gonna go ahead and upgrade to the $25 option just so I can get the one-day delivery, because, again, I needed ASAP and I'll just go ahead and buy this to show you guys that what kind of logos you can get on Fiverr. actually, now that I think about it, I'm gonna have a use for this logo, since I'm gonna create a company Facebook page, since I'm gonna be advertising this website through Facebook, so I'm gonna probably use this logo as the little icon that the profile picture for the Facebook page. okay, so we chose a product. where you have a website in progress, we have an advertisement in progress. the last missing part is the marketing which people do provide on Fiverr. but here's the thing: somebody creating a website on Fiverr I can understand, because I mean, maybe this person is really good at designing websites, but they're not good at marketing, they're not good at finding products and creating advertisement, so they just sell their website designing purposes on this platform turn money. same thing applies for logo design and advertisement. maybe they're not good with other aspects of dropshipping, so they stik to this part and try to earn mo.

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

I Tried Making Money With A Pre-Built Shopify Store (Scam?)

every single day, i get ads for pre-built shopify stores, and the pitch is always the same: for just 17, they'll give you a store that is instantly ready to make money. now, as someone who makes a living from e-commerce, i've always thought it sounded a little bit too good to be true. so today i'm going to be buying one of these stores, launching some facebook ads and seeing if we can make some money with it all. to answer one question: are pre-built shopify stores worth your money? let's find out. if you're new here, my name is jordan and i'm currently documenting the entire journey of growing my ecommerce brand. so if you're interested in starting your own online store, make sure to subscribe for new videos every single friday. so i'm gonna go wait until i get an ad from one of these guys and then we're gonna buy our store a few moments later. all right, i was just listening to some music on youtube and i finally got the ad that i was looking for for my boy, mikey cass. he's giving away eight of these pre-built shopify stores, so i want to get it before it's too late. quick shout out to mikey as well. i i've known this kid for a while, so no hate in this video or anything like that. the store is actually only 17 and it comes with 32 products, 180 paid theme. honestly, it looks like a pretty good deal to me. i'm about to put in my credit card information and i'll let you guys know what happens after we got them. let's go, my store is purchased, so i'll let you guys know when my store is finished and we'll take a look at what we got. yes, sir, i just got the notification that my pre-built store is ready to go, so i got my laptop loaded up here and we're gonna go ahead and take a look. also, i gotta say the story came pretty quickly. it took less than 12 hours to get delivered to me, so i'm curious to see what we're gonna get. so, to keep this challenge as authentik as possible, i think it's only right that we try to pick one product from the store and launch it on facebook ads. i mean, after all, this is the exact template and products that generated him over a hundred thousand dollars a month, so it's gotta work a little bit right. all right, the pre-built store is ready to go. i got my email. the store is called shop dash reload. may not entirely sure what that means, but i hope that the story looks good. basically, i just have to go through and create a staff account real quick, so let me set that up. just accepted the invite. i have no idea what to expect. i didn't add any specifications, i'm just getting what he delivered, so i'm excited. let's get a quick drumroll real quick. before we look at this store, let's see what we've got, okay. okay, it's not not that bad. actually it's a general store. we have a couple different categories. we got a bunch of products already uploaded. it's quite random in the sense of how it's laid out. there's no real branding. the categories are very much scattered around, but in terms of a blank template, it's it's not a bad starting point. so, honestly, for 17 bucks it's not half bad, and it has a bunch of products preloaded into there. let's see if there's any apps added for us. so, yeah, we have a few apps ready to go. i mean, hey, if you're just starting out, this is not a bad point. to begin at, my biggest complaint with this store and my biggest fear about making money with it is the fact that it is so broad, it's super general and it's gonna be really hard to get a good conversion rate on a store like this. the only way to really make a lot of money with a general store like this is to have a banger product. to be honest with you, so far none of these products stand out to me, but i'm gonna do a quick scan and try to find at least one product that i think is worth promoting to try to make money with this store. after looking through every product uploaded on this store, i don't really see that much potential with any of them. to be fair, if you bought a store like this, you could just upload your own products and use the design template that they provided. but i think the whole point of selling a pre-built store, especially to a beginner who's never made money with shopify, is that it's all ready to go, ready to run ads and make money with. so, out of all the products, i like the led safety flares the best. i think this product is easy to market. it's already proven to sell online and the product page that they made is not half bad. and to keep the challenge legit, i'm not even going to make a single change to this product page, as much as i want to change the images, add some reviews, get rid of this. i want to test this store 100 as is to see if we can generate some sales with it. to launch this product, i'm going to need a video ad for facebook. i'm going to take some time tonight. i'm going to cook up a fire ad and then tomorrow i'm gonna launch this product live with you. then we're gonna look at the results and see if we made any money with this store. see you tomorrow. i just finished cooking up this video ad and i think it came out pretty decent. now, this only took me about 30 minutes to do. so this is not some steven spielberg level content, but let's take a look at it. so after that, i just show that it's used by law enforcement to add some trust to the product. i show the features and the benefits of this specific version of the product and then i just give a call to action saying: get yours to keep you and your family safe. this exact video layout is the same one that has generated me millions in sales on my e-commerce journey. so if you're looking to advertise a product, this is exactly how i would do it. now i'm gonna take this ad and launch a hundred dollar a day facebook testing campaign and i'll jump back on once that is all set up. [Music]. i just finished launching the ads for this product, so let's take a look. so i just did a simple 100 a day testing campaign. i chose some really broad interest with the big four countries. this is just a good way to gauge if people are somewhat interested in a product and validate its potential. then for the ad, i simply took the video i created, i came up with an attention grabbing copy and then i just threw the link to the store in the ad. so these ads are sitting in review right now across our fingers that it gets approved, and i'll update you once we get some results. poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east. it's officially been a full day of running ads and i have some results to share. in total, i spent about 92 dollars to make back a whopping amount of zero dollars. unfortunately, we couldn't get any sales with the pre-built store. let's look at this situation and see what went wrong. if we look at the stats of the video and how it's performing, you'll actually see that this thing's kind of busting- busting. i mean, it has a two percent ctr which, on a product test is above average and shows that people are interested in this product. in total, we had 104 people visit the website and only four of those people added to cart. so what this shows me very clearly is this: people want to buy the product, but they're losing trust when they make it to the website. the video ads sold them on the product, but by the time they made it to the website, something fell off and they lost interest, and this was my number one concern in the first place. so i think at this point, just so i don't go broke, i'm gonna go ahead and shut off the ads and, on that note, i think we can call it a wrap on this challenge. to answer the question that we started this video with, i don't really think a pre-built store is worth it. what i recommend is learning the skills to design and make a beautiful website on your own. not only is this going to allow you to create a unique website that nobody else has, but it truly unlocks a door for you to have a career with e-commerce. it's no different than somebody trying to sell you a fitness or diet plan that's going to get you ripped. sure, it might feel like it's helping you a little bit, but the only thing that's really going to get you those results is showing up in the gym and putting

How To Buy Ecommerce Businesses On Shopify Exchange (Without Getting Scammed)

buying a business is awesome and it's changed my life and all of my clients lives, but there's risk involved- risks that you need to know about before you drop your savings on an online business. and whilst there are many places out there to buy great websites, there's also this ever popular place called shopify exchange, which is a place that people who own shopify websites can go away and list their own shopify websites for sale, and clearly there's some pros and cons to this. the pros are that anyone with a shopify store can list their business for sale, and the cons are that anyone with a shopify business or store can list their business of sale, meaning people can create a shopify store, make it look like they're making a lot of money but in fact, they're not, and because of this, many people have been taken advantage of. many people have been scammed, and you can see all the reviews and stuff like that all over the internet of people being scammed on marketplaces like this. so in this video, i'm going to show you how to find a decent business on shopify and not get scammed. i'm gonna share my screen with you and walk you through basically the whole way through: how to buy an online business from a shopify exchange and also, if you stay to the end, i've got a free gift for you, one that you can use to prevent yourself from getting scammed when you're buying a website business on a marketplace like this, and i actually think it's a vital resource that you are going to need when you buy any online business, whether it's through shopify exchange or any website broke or other marketplaces. so stay around to the end and i'll show you that. now let's go away and check out my screen. i'm going to show you what to look for and what to look out for. so here we are on shopify exchange and, as you can see, you can browse different businesses, different business types, okay- and different locations and all that sort of stuff. but what i've just done is i'm just in pretty broad and you can see here that you have private listings. a lot of these are private listings. okay, the reason people make these private listings is because they want to keep their url or their domain name private. reason being is because they don't want other people coming onto this website and seeing that they have a successful website and then go away and copy what they've done and become a competitor. so what's important for them is to make this a private listing and if you want to actually go away and get access to look at this business of sale, is you click on view listing, you can get in contact with the seller of this business sitting and you can sign what we call an nda, which is the non-disclosure agreement, which shows to the seller that you're not going to disclose any of the information that you use and you're not going to compete as well, if you sign an nca, which is a non-competitive game agreement, that you're not going to compete with this business. so it's really important for people to protect the business that they're selling in case they don't sell it, or to protect the person that does become the new owner of the business, so they don't have a bunch of copycats out there competing with the business they've just bought. so i think it's a very, very fair thing and normally the businesses that are private listings are going to be the more genuine businesses that are for sale. and i say normally, but and main reason is because people that are just trying to sell a business, that create too many barriers. if they're just selling some cheap, flabby business, that's not really getting any sales. so let's go through and we won't be able to use these listings because we won't be able to look at the url and much information. but let's look at two businesses. the first one i want to look at is cheaper loop, okay, so let's look at cheaplu and let me show you what i think about this business and we'll come to a sort of conclusion on why this business is either good or bad. so here we go. i look at the business price: okay, so they want fifteen thousand dollars for the business and it's making 53 000 in revenue per month. average sessions. okay, that's cool, but what i look at, this is the average revenue. and then i look at the average profit, and they make about an average net profit of fifteen thousand dollars, eight hundred per month. and my question, my alarm bell or red flag, is that if they make 15 000- 800 per month, why they selling it for less than a month's profit? it mustn't be a very valuable business if that's the case, and so sometimes you can have people here on shopify exchange having these numbers look really, really good and they're just trying to sell something that's not very valuable. so that's a that's a red flag for me, an alarm that i need to be looking into. so what you, i suggest you, do, is you go away and get access to viewers, access to the shopify account, to verify these figures. also, you want to be checking their ad account to verify how much they're spending on advertising, because the difference is- and this may be stok, but i dares- are they spending a lot of money on ad ads. so we scroll through and they say it's a drop shipping business and the reason for selling- they can just make that up. what's involved in run the business? this is a real business: hard work and discipline. i'm most important. okay, i don't know if it is a real business, you don't need to explain that. so that's another funny thing that i find. and then i read here: you have to create ads and manage them on facebook ads each and every day, find new marketing angles, create new creatives. you can create new content every day, and then you know, to refresh what potential customers see, you will have to fulfill the orders, and so these are from aliexpress. okay, aliexpress is a drop shipper from china and normally the products from aliexpress are not very good quality. so even if this business was legit, i'd be questioning it because i wouldn't want to buy a business that was selling, you know, non-quality products, and also aliexpress, takes a long time to ship from. you know, say, if you're selling in the us, which i dare say this business probably is- or even to australia or any other country, it can take a long time to ship from china to the your home country or where the purchases are, so that can create a lot of headaches with customer service. so, 35 profit margin on those they're making about you know, 1300 on sales. okay, so if they're making 1300 sales, what i'd like to do is like, if their revenue is 53 000- right, so i'm going to do this on my little calculator here- if i do, 53 611 divided by 1300, that means they're making about 41 dollars per sale. so let me go away and look at their, their actual business here. okay, so they got two, only two, products. they're selling this and- and it's gonna have to be in english- this is a french site, so i dare say it takes a long time to send these from china to france, and it's 30, i think it's 30- pounds. so that could end up being an average order of, say, 40. so that could make sense, i guess. but what i'd be doing really is i'd be really questioning why they're going to try and sell this business for you know, one month's net profit. then i like to scroll down and look at some more information. you can see that there was nothing. this business was nothing until it hit november, and then they just built it up over the over the december and january period, and you can see it's not really going very far. i'd be wanting to look at more up-to-date financials for this as well. and they're spending fifteen thousand dollars on facebook ads. so that's crazy, isn't it? they're spending fifteen thousand dollars on facebook ads. so the risk is, if you buy this business, you've got fifteen thousand two hundred and thirty, almost 240 dollars per month to spend just to be making the- uh, fifteen thousand dollars. no, so i'd be there, i'd be considering this, and what i suggest you do is go away and look at the health of the email list as well. okay, so they're going to tell you that it has the funny thing: wit.

ADDING PRODUCTS TO YOUR SHOPIFY DROPSHIPPING STORE EASILY (Step By Step Walkthrough)

well, what is going on, guys? my name is sari, and welcome back to another video. in this one, I wanted to show you exactly how to import products into your Shopify store, and I know that's very basic for those of you that follow me that are, like, very advanced. but I get a ton of questions about how exactly does this process even work? like, how does how do we do this? it's gonna take me forever to import products. well, I'm going to show you exactly how you can do that. it's very simple and actually much, much quicker than you would ever expect. so I'll show you exactly how to do that and what you'll need, and that's it. so if you like this content, if you enjoy the value and if you love learning these type of things from a reliable source, make sure you hit the subscribe button and like this video. with that being said, I'm gonna happen to my computer and stop wasting any more time. let's do it, alright, guys? so the first step in importing products to your store is actually going to be to have a store. so if you don't have a store yet, I do have a link in the description to get your 14-day free trial for Shopify, and then it'll just prompt you to this screen right here and then you just create your store- super, super easy, very simple- and then you get a free store for 14 days, so it's awesome. and then you know, once you have it all created, you'll pretty much have this dashboard right here that I have. this is kind of a test store that I started for demonstration purposes and then it's your source gonna look just like this. so essentially, what you want to do first is go to your apps on the left here and then go to visit visit Shopify app store right here on the top right, and then you want to download the over lo app- so it's just called over low- and then you just click get perfect, and I already have it. so I just prompts me to the app. but once you download it it'll just pop up here in your list of apps and then right here- you just have overlooked. so when you just click that and you know you can't find products like this- and some people do, but they don't have nearly as big of a selection- like look it, they do have some awesome products, but it's not gonna be as efficient. so this is how I would do it. oh, my god, I have so many pop-ups, it's insane. okay, perfect. so this is how I would do it. I would go to Google first. so well, this is how I do it actually. so you go to Google first and then you type, or below, Chrome extension. so you do need Google Chrome for this, but, trust me, you definitely, definitely want to do this. so you go over here, the pops up and then you add the Google Chrome extension for overload. it's very simple and I already have it added. it's actually right here, this one. I know it's like grayed out right now, but once we are now the Express, it will not be grayed out anymore. so download that and then all you have to do now is simply go to Aliexpress, so Aliexpress com, and right here. this is pretty much where you're gonna source your products, because over licious, it integrates with Shopify so perfectly and there's just pretty much endless products. so let's just pick one from here now. let's just right away pick something that we think is cool. obviously, the best way to do this would be to go follow one of my videos- I probably will link one in the description- for actually finding winning products. but not gonna lie, guys, I have found winners simply by searching on Aliexpress and the best way to do it is to pretty much, for example, go to phonin accessories. this is solely for example purposes, but the ones that have the most orders tip okay. well, what's going on here? it's like not loading anything. so let's just look up fishing. okay, so we looked up fishing quick and here, whatever you look up, it'll pop up on here a cat it like a list of products in that niche or whatever you want to look up, and then right here where it says orders, you want to just click this and it'll filter it by the products that have the most orders. so look at this 300 meter, 330 yards fishing line, but it's got over 20 thousand orders. guys, this is a hot product right here, and I've obviously you might be thinking: well, that doesn't look like a winning product. you don't know that. you have to test it like. please stop thinking that a winning product looks a certain way. it doesn't. I mean, all the waiting product is is a product that's hot and trending and that you know solves a problem ideally, and this solves a big problem, I would. I mean, I'm not to be big fish', so excuse me if that sounds dumb, because it might be. I know this pen, for example. this was a away. this, yeah, this was a huge winning product because it's a little fishing pole in a pen, like: how cool is that, honestly? so that's why you know this. this would be a big winning product, for example, and it's got four thousand two hundred and twenty seven orders. so you know it's turning, it's gotten a lot of orders, so this is something we would want in our stores. so now that we have the overlooks tension on Google right here, okay, all we have to do is go to the product and right here you have this, like I'll move my screen all the way up until the top just for a second and see, see down here, this little blue circle thing. all you have to do is click that. so you click it, oh, and then you see right here where it says product imported successfully. that's how we know it's imported into our over little list. so, guys, now all you have to do literally is click open import list and it's right here. okay, this is the product right here. it's not on your store yet, so bear with me, you just have to give it a title. I would probably just go portable, like copy some of their keywords: pocket mini fishing pole pen, pens with reel, fishing pole pen with reel. okay, just like that. actually, let's not do with reel and we'll add with reel in the description, but anyways. and then we'll just pick a collection. I don't have any collections here, but usually I would have a collection for you know, like, for, like, creative gifts or fishing stuff, you know something like that. so then we do that and then that's pretty much it. you don't want to add a description on here because sometimes overlook glitches when you import the product and it won't like, it won't import the description, and that's happened to me and it makes me really mad, because I spent a lot of time on the description on you and then I imported in. it's completely gone and you're gonna be really mad. so don't do that. and then, right here we just have some additional pics. we can choose which pics we want, so we'll just leave the ones that are in here on default. Bowl will also add a couple more, because I really like these. for example, these are really nice. or that one too, this one, probably because it's being used. I really like when the product is in use. so perfect, we got these imported, so now all you have to do is click, push to shop and now it's in our shop. so let's just go make sure and we go to our Shopify dashboard and you click products right here and then, boom, it's right here. it's the third one, do you see it? so right here we got a our new portable pocket mini fishing pole now. now all you have to do is set a price for it, which obviously we'll just do like $19.99, which is probably expensive to some of you, but like it really isn't, because it has a high perceived value and, essentially, you just want to give it a good description. I'll link the video below of how you can make a solid product description. I just you know this video is about how to import the product, so just go and look at that video. it's exactly how I write my descriptions and it'll really, really work well for you. so just make sure you do that. and this is how easy it is to import price to your store, guys. so if you like this value, if you learned something from this, make sure you are subscribed to the channel. okay, I've dropped videos like this every single day and I'm definitely a reliable source. guys, this month has been my biggest month yet. it's only March. but March 17th and this, these are my numbers for my store: insane right.
