Making a new dropshipping website, and anyone can follow along if they would like. If I don't report back with $100 in sales from exactly a week from now, I will off myself.
Currently am negative $13 in the hole for purchasing a domain. Today will be set on designing the front of the store, and adding a huge catalog of merchandise using Oberlo.
My niche is lame weirdo cosplay nerds.
I will abuse social media, and tinker slowly with reddit ads and eventually facebook ads.
I will update this thread hourly with my progress.
Screenshot is from my previous shop I made last month. The niche is too specific and what I was making money off of was too broad for my niche, so might as well make a new website for that niche.
I am monitering
I am concerned with my niche being copied, so I will wait a bit before posting the url of the new site, plus it isn't even finished yet.
>1 week

OP here, posting from my phone. On my first site (pic related) I'm selling fart jars. They're basically jars that you can fart into to preserve the scent. It's a super niche product so it's hard to sell - but once you find the right people to advertise to the sales will start coming in.
Here's the site: Plexdeck.com
>>1761983
so can you scrap your old site and start a new one, with the same shopify account? Can you have several shops, all aiming at different markets, with just one shopify account?
>>1763235
What type of marketing are you using?
>>1763235
>only $95.88 in sales
>not even his goal of $100
>>1763325
stop shilling your shitty decks that are copied anyway.
>>1763235
So from 134 visitors you got 34 sales? Damn, that's around a 20% conversion rate, amazing really. But also, wtf, your average sale is under $3.33, wtf are you selling, microwaveable popcorn bags?
>>1763583

I'm making my drop shipping site but I need pics for the homepage and such, what can I do about that?
>>1761982
OP I need your help.
I have a niche and have made ~$70 in sales. About $40 is profit. I've had the store open for a month.
How do I advertise more effectively? I haven't even had days with more than 80 page visits.

Interested OP. Can you provide more details on your marketing and how you chose your niche?
>>1764468
Not the site. Op here, yesterday's totals.
>>1764505
Where did you learn all this
>>1764402
Not OP, but work at a website development digital marketing startup.
1. Save up a small advertising budget ~$1300
2. Update your mediocre website. (look at competitors websites for ideas), fix your about me, get some SEO going.
3. Watch tutorials on google adwords and facebook advertising, and SEO.
4. Create a landing page and use your budget to run ads through facebook and google adwords.
5. Or hire me to do all of that for you.

What happens when the Aliexpress pic of the product I'm trying to sell has a very noticeable watermark right across the pic? Any ways around it?
As an example:

>>1764505
how you advertising?
>>1765275
I use the image editor within Shopify.
>>1763235
not even $3 average order value
you are probably at a loss cause of FB ads
LMAO
>>1764468
How did you get so many followers on your Instagram?
Also, I remember you from the last thread. Do you offer a return policy?
>>1766194
he bought followers
zero engagement .. only 3 pics on his acc
literally no clue what the fuck hes doing kek
>>1766229
That'd explain it then. I hear that if you Follow and unfollow for more followers it will prevent you from reaching the popular page. I just think growing an account organically is the way to go now, I'd be to afraid to have anything happen to my shops social media pages in the future.
>>1767861
True, but no one will follow an account with 0 or very little followers already, especially a shop account.
>>1764511
I hear a lot of talk about SEO, does it take a lot to get that going? Or is it easy?
>>1761982
So first question I have for every dropshipper is, what stops clients with at least two braincells from googling the product and finding the original offer you're reselling? Especially if you're reselling from the popular sites like Amazon or eBay which is much easier to order from.
>My niche is lame weirdo cosplay nerds.
>I am concerned with my niche being copied
Oh I'm sure nobody is sucking up to that demographic yet!
>I will abuse social media, and tinker slowly with reddit ads and eventually facebook ads.
You're looking for a very specific target base, I get reddit but how do plan on doing that with facebook ads?
>>1763238
What the actual fuck.
>>1763238
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WTF 2017-2060
>>1763235
You still have another $4.22 or else you owe us a livestream of your suicide
>>1763238

Any new updates, OP?
