“How can I find dropshipping products to sell?” Sometimes you just have to scroll through social media until you see viral videos that show a product naturally. Here’s a tiktok of a dropshipping product. It showed up on my mom’s feed and she sent it to me lol Once you find a product, check how much you can get it for. If you’re a beginner use Zendrop as your supplier. If it has good profit margins, build a better store, run better ads and make $

Get great ad creatives Again, study your competitors, identify their best-performing ads and make yours even better. You can chop up your own videos in CapCut, use AI, or hire UGC creators to remake those video ads for you. I hire creators through Billo.

Test the product with paid ads: You can set up your fb testing campaign with this structure: 1 ABO Campaign 4 Adsets at $10/day each (3 interests, 1 broad) 3 different creatives in each adset Run your ads for 3-5 days, scale up what worked, turn off what didn’t work. If you’re getting profitable sales at this low budget slowly start to increase budgets every 3-4 days of everything that is working.

Had I not started dropshipping 5 years ago I would probably still be working at a hospital in a small town in Wisconsin. But I took action because I wanted more than what my yearly salary provided. So after work, I would launch stores, fail, but keep pushing forward. After 6 months of trial and error, I finally saw some success. One of my first successful stores ended up doing about $700,000 in sales in a Q4 (Oct, Nov Dec) and I was able to quit my job in healthcare 4 years ago. I haven’t looked back since. Years later I’ve sold and exited one of my dropshipping brands, traveled all over the world, gifted my mom a car, moved to Florida, and help out anyone close to me. God bless ecom. Just getting started.

Dropshipping tip: Avoid chasing random viral products on TikTok with no real value. That’s a quick way to fail. Instead, focus on selling problem solving products in a specific niche. The best products for paid ads solve problems for a niche audience and are at an “impulse buy” price point ($30-$70) Focus on niches like beauty, pets, or new parents, identify their pain points, and find a product to address them. Example - This store sells a facial sculpting device. They angle it as a product that will combat wrinkles, acne, and help achieve a slim face/neck. ShopHunter estimates they’re making 6 figures/month in sales (not 100% accurate, just an estimate)
