TOPIC: Drop Shipping - is it worth it ?

Hey losers,
I've been looking at antonmethod.com as recommended by a site I frequent.

Does anyone here have experience with drop shipping or that course?

I'd like to replace my job income within the next two years, to finish college and move to Thailand or Prague.

Thanks!

I've also heard of drop shipping just don't know how to really get started

Is it worth it? Yes. Of course. You don't actually have to do anything - you're just a middleman picking up money. That site is probably a scam to some extent though.

I don't have the experience to know if you can make that kind of money. But I do know this. Dropshipping companies suck. The real way to make money dropshipping is find a product off walmart or amazon or target etc. And just sell it on ebay or something.

From my experience, not worth it. When you find a good niche, it becomes saturated quickly.

Nothing beats having your own inventory.

Dropshipping works but the margins are minimal. But if you find a supplier that won't run out of stock and set up your listings/products correctly you can build up momentum and grow your sales.

Also, it depends on what site you are selling on and if there is a lot of competition for your niche.

If you're doing eBay and are new do this:

1.Set up and verify your accounts completely (PayPal too)
2. Sell things from around the house first. PayPal issues a hold for new sellers, you don't want to be stuck paying the full price for the dropship item out-of-pocket.
3. Buy a few $1 items from other eBay sellers here and there (To build your feedback, buyers will trust you more)
4. Select a niche you'd be interested in- I DO NOT recommend electronics because it's over saturated with dropshippers and sellers alike.
5. In the given category/or for a specific keyword search for "sold" items. Get a feel for what sells and locate a supplier to dropship via Amazon, Walmart, etc.
6. List the items BUT make sure to change the photos up so they stand out from other listings, keyword optimize title and description, and add a "PayPal verified" badge at the top of your item description.
7. Install Froo Cross Sell - This app allows you to cross-promote your items- If someone is looking for an iPhone case and they are looking at your listing you'd want them to see other relevant items from your shop(Chargers, earphones, etc.) More sales/profits
8. Once you have a few established item listings try and find a wholesale supplier for the same items- This will yield more profit.

Ps NEVER use a "dropshipping company" they just resell stuff and charge you a membership fee- Total B/S

Find what works for you, optimize and scale it up.

Control is extremely important in business, and by dropshipping you're losing control. You're putting your fate in the hands of someone else. Not worth it
