are you always three years late? that shit is saturated and not profitable now

>>19337368
Try selling fear.

>>19337368
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH wtf is this 2013???

>>19337391
But people don't know I'm dropshipping. This is like any other normal online purchase, so why won't they buy

>>19337368
what product are you dropshipping? no need to be specific, just give me a general idea

>>19337490
Because you're competing with a swarm of other poos who think dropshipping is still a thing.

>>19337490
You have to dropship extremely niche things and even then the bigwigs will take over your space. Not worth the hassle.

>>19337502
Home fitness equipment. Thought since people are stuck at home...

>>19337570
are you selling one product or many?

>>19337490
>>19337570
cut your losses anon trust me I tried it too

>>19337583
I added about 10 products to my store. 4 have already failed

>>19337629
It's just that I still sometimes see people talking about it as their passive income so I thought to give it a go

>>19337368
>he fell for the dropshipping meme
fucking kek

>>19337726
Is it your personal store or are you doing it through Amazon?

>>19337490
facebook isn't where people go shopping

ebay and amazon are where people go shopping

if you're selling stuff you should target people that want to buy stuff, not just random strangers on facebook.

>>19337368

nice try anon, even if it fails you gained experience, you will make it

>>19337726
I would recommend focusing on one excellent product and putting your effort into making a variety of different ad sets, find one that works and scale that up.

>>19337820
Personal store. Amazon do not accept dropshipping. You have to stock them first to sell on amazon

>>19337878
The thing is if excellent product can be discerned just like that, life would've been easy. All 10 products I added, I thought to be excellent.

>>19337823
Thanks anon

>>19337932
then just pick one of those ten and run with it

>>19337880
Is Amazon version still lucrative if you can afford the 2k investment to stock them through a supplier first?

Also, how do you drive traffic? Do you advertise on Facebook?

>>19337547
How do I achieve this?

>>19337368
fucking good. all you "dropshitters" are doing is being a virtual middle man increasing the price of goods.

you should be ashamed of yourself.

>>19338008
Rare Gundams dead srs

>>19337949
If all failed, why pick one.

>>19338030

Anything you mention is useless if we don't know how to drive traffic.

In YouTube for instance, you get views by getting recommended (no one searchs for shit, they just jump from video to video). So you want an high watchtime, retention and high CTR.

What is the equivalent for Amazon?

>>19338060
>high watchtime, retention and high CTR.
Btw this is in theory, its what makes the most sense, but feels like a crapshot, but again those are what makes the most sense leaving aside any invisible throttling due reasons (see p-score jewery)

>>19338036
because it's easier to market one product as something you need to buy NOW than marketing ten products

>>19337821
I've sold $13,000 of shit from fb ads in the last 2 weeks. So, no.

>>19337979
Don't know about amazon desu. But you shouldn't invest 2k on any product before you test it with ads. Setup a landing page and run fb ads to see the response.

>>19338141
How much did you spend on ads?

>>19338156
Gotcha. I don't want to put you out but can you link me to resources that can teach me how to do those things?

>>19338060
not very many people sell Gundams. so when you click on one of the popular stores who is selling a rare Gundam, only 2 or 3 other "stores" may have them, and that is the entirety of their stock.

for example, go and look for yourself what the Master Grade (MG) Gundam Sazabi is selling for on Amazon despite retailing for $70USD

>>19338202
Hundreds of tutorials on YouTube. Just search 'setting up landing page with shopify'

>>19338306
Thanks homie, I wouldn't even know what keywords to use lol

>>19338117
How the fuck do you:

1) Market it beyond your average fb ads campaign
2) Know that you arent marketing a dead end product

>>19338156
How much do you spend on ads before you discard it as a product that will not sell?

What do you use to select a certain product? Like keywords, a niche, search volume.. how

>>19338294
Looks like something only autists into that could do. Knowing the ins and outs, not getting scammed with fakes etc. Also rare = not many exist = not scalable.

>>19338395
>product that will not sell
no such thing

>>19337368
you gotta niche. and develope over time. nobody likes searching the internet. they want to go to that one guy

>>19338413
any successful seller knows what they are selling.

I can tell by your attitude you are very young and looking for a quick way to make money and you just showed us all you aren't even willing to put 10 mins into research.

makes sense why you're here on 4chan asking to be spoonfed instead of learning and reading from actual professionals.

good luck

>>19338395
>How much do you spend on ads before you discard it as a product that will not sell
The course I've followed said if you don't get a sale before reaching break even point, kill the ad

>>19338427
Really, big brain?

>>19338521
Who are the professionals

Also, I never understand how poorfags start with doing this if they don’t have capital to acquire shit to sell. Do they just try to get a signup list of who interested and then figure out how much to buy so they’re not hemorrhaging money from the beginning?

>>19338427
What about a chocolate fireguard?

>>19338817
sell it as a funny gag gift, and it's made of premium delicious chocolate

>>19338427
This is retarded, otherwise you could sell any random shit and this is clearly not the case.

>>19338521
Im 30 and made 100k on adsense, I haven't ventured on selling products because I don't want to waste money on ads on random products until it sticks.

> instead of learning and reading from actual professionals.

So you are the one that pays for courses of people telling you the secrets in how to get rich from dropshipping

>>19339072
>otherwise you could sell any random shit and this is clearly not the case.

>>19338546
Which course?

The people that posted those pics of Amazon FBA sales claimed to not having invested in any ads, its all organic. When hard pressed to answer how they gained their traffic, it basically sounded like luck, the algorithm sends them traffic.

In my experience in YT is the same, I did some videos and some got ranked and get passive traffic. However im anxious 24h to check and see if they still recommended. I spend days without checking analytics and continue working on the next video.

Other than ads its useless for me since its an anonymous channel and kids only click on merch and other shit if you are some famous cunt like Logans and co. I dont want to be public. I cant sell or talk or do anything like that. I dont want my face on a video selling X or doing Y uploaded forever on the internet, but looks like branding (being the leader of a cult basically) is were most of the money is made these days because everything is so cluttered that its just yet again the continuation of popularity wars since high school.

Unless you are some sort of demi god at what you do and thats like the 1%, the rest is marketing and targeting, hard to do if you are anonymous.

>>19339103
So you are saying you are literally able to sell me this pen on ly by running fb ads about pens? seems legit.

>>19337570
Jesus Christ anon you're 3 fucking months late what the fuck?

>>19337821
This is incorrect

>>19339191
Yes.

>>19339243
Prove it.
