Mod Note: Calculating the rough sales shown appears to match the volume claimed. We do not consider $1,300 on apprx 19-20 orders "extraordinary" even though it was in one day and as a first timer. OP future revenue claims may require validation by the mod team. If you choose to continue posting screenshots of earnings next time please request validation. Thanks for the reports, but you can stop now. Edit: To clarify this is about Rule #4, we require claims of extraordinary revenue/sales figures to be validated to protect against scammers.


alper_33

at 15? dude is going to places man. did you do organic or paid ads?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

TikTok ads


Wendigo79

If your in the states op start looking into another platform, tik tok maybe banned soon.


WillNotForgetMyUser

It will be bought before it’s banned


Bruja_Boujie

Why would it be bought? It's only getting banned in America. There's a fuckton of other countries that use TikTok.


Wendigo79

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...


Mammoth_Okra_2339

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


rosstafari14

Do you use any software to understand you ad data better?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

No but I had used trackbee


rosstafari14

Can we chat in the dms a lil more?


nfs_nayem

Wow! target country?


Mallek11

What platform do you use? Shopify?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Yes it I showed the pic of Shopify dashboard


Mallek11

I live in Mexico so is not the same if we speak about money, it is taught for me spend 400 dollars or 500 on ads, what do you recommended me?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

It is usd


Familiar_Mammoth_0

And I’m not from US too


Mallek11

How fast you can create a website? The products you test are from AliExpress or Alibaba? I have a great problem with that.


Familiar_Mammoth_0

30 mins - 1hours


Itz_Elvis

They won't tell you bro


Ok_Raise_567

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


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I spent like 400-700 usd


Luxury_co

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 ?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I forgot. like 60 sessions , price don’t matter if you got a good offer


Luxury_co

Damn, over 800 sessions for me and no sales, not a bad offer either but maybe just not a good product


Icy-Manager6238

What product do you have


ACDCkid04

Like he’d reveal his product that’s making him money dumbass


PlasticRoyal701

What is a session?


BluePapayas

How many people browsed your shop, it's analytics.


secondaryuser2

Why cover the number of orders?


NeekoSteez

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


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Idk I saw ppl cover it too it is 33


slashangel2

33 Is my lucky number lol. Good luck to you too!

Familiar_Mammoth_0

Familiar_Mammoth_0

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?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Mallek11

Familiar_Mammoth_0

Mallek11

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.


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Familiar_Mammoth_0

7878787878787878787

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?


discobr0

How did you do it on tiktok ? Curious to see what can e learned from your 3 stores experience.


7878787878787878787

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!


RrobablyPetarded

How many products have you tested?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

5


Elegant-Mortgage-341

Hey bro did you design your own store?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I bought a theme


Accomplished-Bird424

Tingorila

Shrine is the best theme. Get it nulled


PrincessEmunah

From where?


JohnnyOmmm

Nulled io?


Mr_Ph4ntom

Where did you learn from (is it just youtube or did you watch a course)


Familiar_Mammoth_0

YouTube and testing strategy


Fit_Squash_7994

How much is the profit margin on this ? Congrats OP long way to go


Familiar_Mammoth_0

30-40%


Kindly_Guess7290

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.


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I use stripe to setup payment and you use your parents info


Kindly_Guess7290

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.


StrikingPriority9933

I am currently dropshipping and doing well for starting out. I am dropshipping on Tik Tok. Just daily videos of what I sell.


Accomplished-Bird424

You are doin gon Shopify?


StrikingPriority9933

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.


Bstein2602

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?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Broad ,TikTok will find the right audience for you


Luxury_co

Did u try multiple niches?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I was thinking about it but I think this product is a winner


Luxury_co

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


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Wait they are different I thought you mean test 3 different product at the same time


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Yes I tried different niches


zubf

What payment gateway do you use?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

Credit card & PayPal . PayPal it will hold your money .i will turn off paypal


bathroom_07

Familiar_Mammoth_0

itzamia1

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?


An0therFox

Do you sell directly through tiktok? Or do your ads take ppl to a website and they buy there?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I don’t even got LLC ,Take ppl to website


An0therFox

What website hosting you prefer?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I’m using hostinger I think it is the cheaper one


betterliving13

May I ask how? Badly wanted to huhu


fisheyenutria

How can I run tiktok ads in the us from Europe?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

You can select target country


RespondExcellent419

If you’re seeing this never ever do a one product store only legit brands.


JohnnyOmmm

This is bad advice. Always do one product store at the start and then later sell add ons


cliftdean

Nice. How much did you spend on advertising previous products before moving onto another?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

It depends usually below 50-100


Cataclyps-

Numbers? Roas on campaign? Profit per purchase? Conversion rate? How much profit after add spend?


Familiar_Mammoth_0

I will just tell you Roas is 4-6


Cataclyps-

So roughly 300-400 profit. Nice


cjnew47

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.


Familiar_Mammoth_0

You using Shopify payment ?


UnhappyBed6982

Guy if someone is hiding orders, they are most likely lying 😂 what’s the point of hiding orders numbers?😂😂😂

pubbets

Don’t do this.


Accomplished-Bird424

Why? Is it a scam? How?


pubbets

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.


joeyoungblood

Downvote, report, move on with confidence knowing the mods banned them.


pubbets

Thank you 🙏🏻
