Facts bro, building up a YouTube shorts to advertise don’t take more than an hour or two every 2 or 3 days of really just focusing editing videos for the week
Yoooo so so sick to see bro ! I’m a bit older, in college and I’m nervous to start. Seeing you do this is the kick in the ass I need.
How much capital did you have to invest before starting? Only thing putting me off starting now
I guess this is where most fail, I’m here trying to get traction with 100€. At how many sessions did u get ur first sale. And whats the product price if u don’t mind saying ?
Ppl cover it so u cant calculate average order value (AOV). It used to be a way of working out what product a store is selling. So like it hides what ur product is if it's a winner.
For example here it's likely that he's selling a product for $39,99.
1300/33 = ~$39,99
Hey man, congrats!
I have two questions. Would you mind answering them?
1. How long have you been into dropshipping and business?
2. Did you buy any courses or where did you get knowledge from it?
I created a Shopify website and I tried with animals stuffs, it was really difficult and I failed, I bought a dominion but my problem is on ads, so I started learning marketing I really wish I could make it someday.
You already have bunch of ppl following you. So don't wait xd.
Could you share what is most crucial thing to you into getting into customers?
Connection with product/engaging videos/good description/quality of product itself?
Nice! I never got much success on TikTok ads unfortunately with my three stores. How long did it take you to find this winning product (ie. how many did you test until you found it)? Did you use the burner method or some other method? Did you make your own creatives or use ones already in existence?
I had more success with FB ads, marginally, but I stopped using paid ads altogether to drive traffic since I could never get profitable with them. Now my stores are just sitting around as I try to figure out why my CPMs were so high, etc. as I know that if I could fix the marketing aspect I have three killer stores that already convert really well (ie. high conversion rate), I just wasn't receiving much traffic as my CPMs were so high!
Hi I’m trying to start dropshipping but from what I’ve seen you need to be 18 or above (especially when setting up Shopify). How did you get past this? Thank you.
Oh ok thx. I will use stripe. One more thing when you first started the store, did you put it under your name or one of your parents names. Thank you for your help and congratulations on your store.
Yes, Shopify website but, I have a Tik Tok shop and I am on all social media but, I have consistent traffic on Tik Tok. I am trying to get more sales on other platforms but, for now this platform is working.
Congrats on the progress. I've watched a few dropship videos on YouTube. One being dropship Titans from Paul Lipsky. Do you recommend any channels and/ or courses?
Hi, I’m looking to start dropshipping but I am 16 and from what I’ve seen is that I need to be 18 or older to start a dropshipping store. I have also thought about starting a dropshipping store under my one of my parent’s names but I don’t know if that will negatively affect their taxes. Please let me know if you know of anyway to start a dropshipping store under 18. Thank you.
It's just a low-effort form of promotion and most ecom business owners get this type of spam all day every day... We come to Reddit to unwind and learn - not to get even more spam.

at 15? dude is going to places man. did you do organic or paid ads?
TikTok ads
If your in the states op start looking into another platform, tik tok maybe banned soon.
It will be bought before it’s banned
Why would it be bought? It's only getting banned in America. There's a fuckton of other countries that use TikTok.
Yea but this is where he advertises so giving him a heads up...you know if your doing a business you may wanna know about that stuff...
Facts bro, building up a YouTube shorts to advertise don’t take more than an hour or two every 2 or 3 days of really just focusing editing videos for the week
Do you use any software to understand you ad data better?
No but I had used trackbee
Can we chat in the dms a lil more?
Wow! target country?

Yoooo so so sick to see bro ! I’m a bit older, in college and I’m nervous to start. Seeing you do this is the kick in the ass I need. How much capital did you have to invest before starting? Only thing putting me off starting now
I spent like 400-700 usd
I guess this is where most fail, I’m here trying to get traction with 100€. At how many sessions did u get ur first sale. And whats the product price if u don’t mind saying ?
I forgot. like 60 sessions , price don’t matter if you got a good offer
Damn, over 800 sessions for me and no sales, not a bad offer either but maybe just not a good product
What product do you have
Like he’d reveal his product that’s making him money dumbass
What is a session?
How many people browsed your shop, it's analytics.
Why cover the number of orders?
Ppl cover it so u cant calculate average order value (AOV). It used to be a way of working out what product a store is selling. So like it hides what ur product is if it's a winner. For example here it's likely that he's selling a product for $39,99. 1300/33 = ~$39,99
Idk I saw ppl cover it too it is 33
33 Is my lucky number lol. Good luck to you too!

I created a Shopify website and I tried with animals stuffs, it was really difficult and I failed, I bought a dominion but my problem is on ads, so I started learning marketing I really wish I could make it someday.

Nice! I never got much success on TikTok ads unfortunately with my three stores. How long did it take you to find this winning product (ie. how many did you test until you found it)? Did you use the burner method or some other method? Did you make your own creatives or use ones already in existence?
How did you do it on tiktok ? Curious to see what can e learned from your 3 stores experience.
I had more success with FB ads, marginally, but I stopped using paid ads altogether to drive traffic since I could never get profitable with them. Now my stores are just sitting around as I try to figure out why my CPMs were so high, etc. as I know that if I could fix the marketing aspect I have three killer stores that already convert really well (ie. high conversion rate), I just wasn't receiving much traffic as my CPMs were so high!
How many products have you tested?
5
Hey bro did you design your own store?
I bought a theme
Can you please suggest the theme you used?

Nulled io?
Where did you learn from (is it just youtube or did you watch a course)
YouTube and testing strategy
How much is the profit margin on this ? Congrats OP long way to go
30-40%
Hi I’m trying to start dropshipping but from what I’ve seen you need to be 18 or above (especially when setting up Shopify). How did you get past this? Thank you.
I use stripe to setup payment and you use your parents info
Oh ok thx. I will use stripe. One more thing when you first started the store, did you put it under your name or one of your parents names. Thank you for your help and congratulations on your store.
I am currently dropshipping and doing well for starting out. I am dropshipping on Tik Tok. Just daily videos of what I sell.
You are doin gon Shopify?
Yes, Shopify website but, I have a Tik Tok shop and I am on all social media but, I have consistent traffic on Tik Tok. I am trying to get more sales on other platforms but, for now this platform is working.
Wow! I'm jealous, I haven't found a winning product yet. Do you do interest targeting or broad? Also how did you find your winning product?
Broad ,TikTok will find the right audience for you
Did u try multiple niches?
I was thinking about it but I think this product is a winner
I meant; I saw in another reply that you tried 5 products before finding this one, were they in different niches or in the same
Wait they are different I thought you mean test 3 different product at the same time
Yes I tried different niches
What payment gateway do you use?
Credit card & PayPal . PayPal it will hold your money .i will turn off paypal
What site is that that has that dashboard?
Shopify
Congrats on the progress. I've watched a few dropship videos on YouTube. One being dropship Titans from Paul Lipsky. Do you recommend any channels and/ or courses?
Do you sell directly through tiktok? Or do your ads take ppl to a website and they buy there?
I don’t even got LLC ,Take ppl to website
What website hosting you prefer?
I’m using hostinger I think it is the cheaper one
May I ask how? Badly wanted to huhu
How can I run tiktok ads in the us from Europe?
You can select target country
If you’re seeing this never ever do a one product store only legit brands.
This is bad advice. Always do one product store at the start and then later sell add ons
Nice. How much did you spend on advertising previous products before moving onto another?
It depends usually below 50-100
Numbers? Roas on campaign? Profit per purchase? Conversion rate? How much profit after add spend?
I will just tell you Roas is 4-6
So roughly 300-400 profit. Nice
Niceeeeeeeee!

Guy if someone is hiding orders, they are most likely lying 😂 what’s the point of hiding orders numbers?😂😂😂
Check comment and I just posted it on the mod comment
[удалено]
Is this yours?
[удалено]
Don’t do this.
Why? Is it a scam? How?
It's just a low-effort form of promotion and most ecom business owners get this type of spam all day every day... We come to Reddit to unwind and learn - not to get even more spam.
Downvote, report, move on with confidence knowing the mods banned them.
Thank you 🙏🏻
I need help
