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 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.

Update:
I will be adding an affiliate marketing app to my shopify store. Hoping to make great deals with big instagram pages, that can shill for me 24/7.

Hi. Your boy jared will not be killing himself. now fuck off faggots.
Leo Bailey
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
Jaxson Anderson
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?
Benjamin Anderson
What type of marketing are you using?
Aaron Lewis
>only $95.88 in sales >not even his goal of $100
Samuel Carter
stop shilling your shitty decks that are copied anyway.
Mason Lopez
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?
Gavin Cruz

Michael Ramirez
Immigrants stole all the no skill labour. Women also divided said left over labour. Thats a stupid picture. I could do what OP is doing selling pipes.
Camden Peterson
I'm making my drop shipping site but I need pics for the homepage and such, what can I do about that?
Michael Roberts
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.

How does your site look?
Samuel Sullivan
how do you identify a niche?
Samuel Walker
hey i have the same plan either my dropshipping store is successful or i will kill myself
Interested OP. Can you provide more details on your marketing and how you chose your niche?
Landon Sullivan
Not the site. Op here, yesterday's totals.
Kevin Wood
Where did you learn all this
Jason Bennett
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. [email protected]
You have cool products and an interesting idea. Capitalize on it. Put in the work.
Samuel Mitchell
Thanks maybe ill contact you
Christopher Morgan
What do you mean by "not the site"?
Nathan Ortiz
He meant urbansurvival.co wasn't his site.
Ethan Watson
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?
How did you get so many followers on your Instagram?
Also, I remember you from the last thread. Do you offer a return policy?
Nathan Walker
he bought followers
zero engagement .. only 3 pics on his acc
literally no clue what the fuck hes doing kek
Ryan Hill
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.
Ryan Edwards
dumb question from someone who's never had an instagram acc, but what about following a ton of people, and then keeping those who follow you back and deleting those who don't? Would that work?
Isaiah Peterson
True, but no one will follow an account with 0 or very little followers already, especially a shop account.
Nolan Nelson
I hear a lot of talk about SEO, does it take a lot to get that going? Or is it easy?
John Rivera
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?
Connor Cook
What the actual fuck.
