Can it be, the lack of money, lack of skills, lack of right proven systems, mentors..what could it be?

    Started my Shopify last week. Spent around $150 on website and ads, no sales. Although it’s been a week, I’ve had MAJOR improvement on my site. Going from a lame clusters theme focusing on electronic to a general theme stored with a Instagram page. As a college student making minimum wage, it is tough watching your money go down the drain but I promised myself I will continue this path, maybe spend less on ads and focus more on my product and site, and not give up for at least the next 5 years :)

    This was a good video. I especially liked that you gave stop gaps for when to move on from certain ad sets and you gave a priority list of which things to focus on first. Honestly, in this process of building my first store or two, I think I have wasted a lot of time by not doing things in the most succinct way and I got some value here in terms of prioritizing my activity order. Thanks :)

I'm sure that I will waste a little less time and money in my learning curve due to the content I've been gleaming from YT, though :) Of which, considering I watch at least 1-2 videos every day during my morning study time, I can say that yours is quality.

  • @pawsitivepurrs2751
    @pawsitivepurrs2751 6 лет назад +4

    I wouldn't waste your time on trying to dropship AliExpress junk. The market for pretty much every product on there is flooded. When Facebook users see the same ad for the same type of products from numerous stores, they get tired of it and keep scrolling. There is money to be made through dropshipping, but not like this. If these gurus are really making money from dropshipping from AliExpress, why are they selling youtube courses?

    • @catluva74
      @catluva74 5 лет назад

      Exactly. The only really successful website owners I've meet will be the first to tell you it's a slow grind to get a legitimate site to turn real profits. They will also encourage you to find your own angle rather then selling a cookie cutter program.

    • @otacon1024
      @otacon1024 5 лет назад +2

      It's not that the market for pretty much every product is flooded, I'd say it's the exact opposite. Out of the hundreds of thousands of products on there, everyone is trying to sell the same exact shit - the stuff that's currently trending and selling well there. They go into it thinking that because it's selling well on AliExpress, it's going to go the same way in their store. Of course, it doesn't quite work out that way when everyone and their mother is doing the same exact thing.
      Basically, people are lazy and approach it the completely wrong way. Instead of thinking about which niches are untapped, building a brand around them, and _then_ finding products that fit in, they think on a product-by-product basis and end up with a general store with no cohesive theme and the same random crap everyone else is trying to flip.

I never took the time to learn the themes the navigation....making pages etc. so I wanted certain menus but had no idea how to make them...little did I know it was right in front of my eyes. It’s all finally starting to CLICK . Smacking myself on the head like duh! I thank you for the time you put into your videos in helping others.

Should I just change my mind and start to setup my store brand on what is currently best selling.

    The only way something like this could be a get fast rich deal is if they did it before, have experience, and have the money. Since I started this I've spent hours and hours watching videos, taking notes, and setting things up. I have a notebook filled with information. I wake up at 4am, and usually don't end my day till midnight doing this. I'm currently on LOA taking care of my newborn, and a lot of time isn't spent on this. Probably about half my time is able to do all this stuff, so my sleep almost doesn't exist. Just trying to set this up, set it up right, and not take a million years doing it either- as I'm taking care of a newborn too, is hard work but its worth a shot.
