I haven't started drop shipping because it is something I am mostly planning on starting later (long story, but I'm focusing mostly on my blog at the moment). I'm curious to know what methods of marketing and advertising that you use for when you create stores? Do you only do Google and/or facebook ads? Do you build social media profiles or always use influencers? Of course it depends on the product and the audience, but I guess I was wanting more information on advertising/marketing from your own experience.<br /><br />If you have a link to a blog post, that would be great!Kirsten Crawfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02609775564526841815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-82135268043692194012018-11-23T21:03:06.099-08:002018-11-23T21:03:06.099-08:00Hey Dana, I follow Anton's method of dropshipp...Hey Dana, I follow Anton's method of dropshipping, in his course he has you write down a list of everything that fits his criteria, example products that average $300-$1,000 then has you go through the competitors to see if they dropship and if you can compete with them or if that niche is too saturated. His course is at www.AntonMethod.com if you want to follow it as well.

There ...Hey Matt, happy to be able to share openly. There are pros and cons with both dropshipping and FBA. One benefit of FBA is that there is already a huge audience of customers waiting to buy on Amazon. However, they will never see your product unless you make it to the first 2 pages of Amazon listings which takes time, a marketing plan, including getting a lot of reviews, most of which require some money upfront to get, either by giving away free products (now discouraged by Amazon), buying reviews (also now banned from Amazon) or other methods.<br /><br />Also with FBA it takes a few months to actually get the items physically imported from China to your FBA warehouse, especially if you take the time to get samples first to make sure the products are what you are expecting, which is recommended. <br /><br />With dropshipping using Anton's model, you get traffic through paid ads primarily, which means once your store is setup, you can potentially start making sales within the first 24 hours of your store being live. All of my stores started making sales within the first few days of ads being run.

The concepts I've already learned from you (and the 4 Hour Work Week 😉 ) have absolutely changed my life. I have been doing AirBnB rental arbitrage, started a basic blog, working in venture capital, and been building online businesses as a student for the last couple of years, and would like to start expanding my knowledge base.<br /><br /> Just thought I would reach out to you and see if perhaps there is any chance you might be interested in partnering on business deals in rental arbitrage or startups/venture capital? There are many opportunities in these spaces which I would love to share with you should it be of interest.<br /><br /> Thanks again, and please let me know if we could talk here or over the phone for a brief introduction whenever is convenient for you!!<br /><br />Best,<br />Tyler EttnerAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05458012931882356643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-57221256008617725242017-01-12T06:23:08.806-08:002017-01-12T06:23:08.806-08:00Johnny awesome post!

I have been researching DS vs FBA and seem to be at a cross roads with which way to go. With DS you need to drive your own traffic correct? With FBA you are already in an open market of purchase minded customers correct? Is it a fair assumption that FBA would be a shorter path to profits or am I missing something? Thanks and keep up the great work!<br /><br />Matt B<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06009839117088740601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-33334600620589741652017-01-03T23:46:36.969-08:002017-01-03T23:46:36.969-08:00Thanks for the reply..

I have set a plan in place to be in Thailand with my family by 2018. Travelling, hustling online and relaxing.<br /><br />What a coincidence that I am also an aspiring digital entrepreneur! I have experience in both affiliate and client SEO and Kindle.<br /><br />I am shifting away from Client SEO and moving towards Affiliate as it appears to be more passive.<br /><br />I have been interested in DS and Ecom for a while now and while I was searching through Udemy's courses I seen a drop shipping course and considered purchasing..<br /><br />It wasn't until I seen your mugshot (no disrespect lol) that I thought, "hey I recognize that bald head!"...<br /><br />So I checked out DSL and came to your site, which I checked out once previously after watching you in Thailand.<br /><br />I have just finished reading through your Store in 30 days challenge to get a solid overview of what's inside DSL, or at least the process...<br /><br />I am confident in technical design, SEO etc.. The only part of the puzzle I believe i'm lacking experience in is the finding suppliers part..<br /><br />I'm wondering if you have your own course on DS?<br /><br />Anyway, you're awesome man and I'll be watching your site closely for updates. <br /><br />I'm gutted i wouldn't make the cut for being part of your store building group as I am not a member of DSL and I don't have an established DS site.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05380256205047761060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-12172032437854105592016-12-28T18:51:37.628-08:002016-12-28T18:51:37.628-08:00Hey Roots, I'm glad to have taken the time to ...Hey Roots, I'm glad to have taken the time to write this then!

I have been working towards quitting my job that pays about 70k a year, and through drop shipping, I now will be focusing on creating a life for myself that doesnt require me working 50+ hours a week. It's gonna be 15 hour days starting today with Anton's Method to get my dropshipping store up and profitable. I want to click on the link for antons course that will also give me access to your optimizing course for free. Also do you recommend just going with the premium option instead of the done for you method? I feel it may be best to learn the ropes rather than pay to have everything set up for me.

Also, I think mindset plays a huge role in all of this, and in success with our individual endeavors. For me, your blogs and podcasts provided me with a different perspective. They helped me develop a mindset that allowed me to discover and pursue my true values, which turns out to be much more than just money. I imagine trolls might think they're looking at some kind of get rich quick scheme and not doing the research. Everyone who follows you, or is part of something like DSL knows what the true value is because we're actually putting in the hard work and research. <br /><br />What haters are seeing is the perspective of people who are just absolutely crushing it in life!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07827825522427983924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194848132778607550.post-17200102199656323702016-12-16T07:14:48.658-08:002016-12-16T07:14:48.658-08:00John Scales is the biggest hater man.
