Many of you may know what dropshipping is and due to the current circumstances, may want to give it a go.

So here are some things that are super useful to know before you get into it…

  • It’s not a get rich scheme. It takes months of hard work before you see success.
  • Don’t do business based upon emotion. You may love a product but the numbers don’t lie.
  • Read Facebook’s guidelines and when contacting their support be very very nice to them. This is to prevent Facebook ad account bans.
  • Call your Bank or PayPal all the time. Say I’m scaling tomorrow, I’m calling the Bank/PayPal today. If you keep the Bank/PayPal in the loop, they are way less likely to put holds on your account.
  • Holds will hurt your cash flow, so make sure to implement the correct methods to ensure you never get them.
  • Get into a routine and set specific goals. We have a goal to test a store every single day. Consistency is the key to fast success.
  • If you don’t enjoy a certain job, get a VA to do it. A VA is a virtual assistant who is usually available for a good rate that can do so many different tasks.
  • If you are gonna start with say $500 be prepared to lose that money. When I say lose, technically you won’t have lost it, you will have used it to gain knowledge.
  • Lose your emotional attachment to money. Knowledge and time are way more valuable than any sum of money. Forget about the small money and you will make the big money.
  • Test and test and test and test and test and test. Yeah, test. When we say test and keep testing that means even if you are comfortable in your current position do not stop trying new things and never get complacent. You will soon lose momentum and then have to work 10x harder with no motivation.
  • Do not have a biased opinion on products. Look at products as objectively as possible otherwise you may not test that 7 figure winner.
  • Drop-shipping is for the medium to long term. Do not expect to open a store then magically get sales.
  • Just start. – You can research for hours and hours. But the best way to learn is to start and do the practice and learn from your own mistakes.
