My Experience with Dropshipping Without Any Prior Knowledge (Honest Outcomes)




I Tried Dropshipping With No Experience (Realistic Results)

Dropshipping has become a popular business model in recent years, allowing entrepreneurs to start an online store without the need to hold inventory or handle shipping. With the rise of e-commerce platforms like Shopify and the availability of suppliers on platforms like AliExpress, it has never been easier to start a dropshipping business. However, many people wonder if it is possible to succeed in dropshipping with no prior experience. I decided to put this to the test and try dropshipping with no experience, here are my realistic results.

First and foremost, I did a lot of research before diving into dropshipping. I read articles, watched videos, and listened to podcasts to gather as much knowledge as possible. I learned about product selection, finding reliable suppliers, and marketing strategies. Armed with this information, I decided to take the plunge and create my own dropshipping store.

I chose a niche that I was passionate about, as I believe that having a genuine interest in the products you are selling can make a difference in the success of the business. I spent hours scouring AliExpress for products that I believed would appeal to my target audience and would not break the bank when it came to pricing. I took my time to curate a selection of products and created a visually appealing website using Shopify.

Once my store was up and running, I focused on marketing. I utilized social media platforms like Instagram and Facebook to promote my products and drive traffic to my store. I also invested in some Facebook ads to reach a wider audience. I was also constantly testing and tweaking my marketing strategies to see what worked best for my store.

In the first few months, I did see some sales trickling in. However, I quickly realized that the profit margins were not as high as I had initially anticipated. I also encountered some challenges with customer service, especially when it came to shipping times and product quality. I recognized that building a strong relationship with reliable suppliers was crucial for the success of my business.

After six months of working on my dropshipping store, I realized that while I had made some sales, the overall profit was minimal. I also found that the amount of time and effort I was putting into the business did not seem to match the results I was seeing. It was clear to me that dropshipping was not a get-rich-quick scheme and that it required a lot of hard work and dedication.

In conclusion, my experience with dropshipping with no prior experience was a realistic one. While I did see some initial success, I also encountered challenges and the overall profit was not as high as I had hoped. It became clear to me that dropshipping is a business model that requires a significant amount of effort, time, and commitment in order to be successful. It is important for anyone considering dropshipping to go into it with realistic expectations and to be prepared to put in the work to make it a success. While dropshipping with no experience is possible, it is not a guaranteed path to instant riches.

    I'm so confused why there's such a bad dislike ratio on this vid. Your content is really good and informative and it doesn't seem like you've done anything worth disliking? Comments also seem mainly positive so no idea what's going on there.

    This is really a great video, but for me, the best way to make money online is to trade with a professional broker, I make huge profits on my investment since I started trading with Mrs Miriam Alvarez, her trading strategies are top notch.

    Really don’t like this type of content from you. Drop shipping can be predatory and is just morally so.. ehhh. Prefer your other content. Also needed a clearer sponsorship disclosure at the beginning of the video. I just found this channel and really like some of your content but this one made me second guess it.

    Dropshipping used to be my main business for couple of years when CPC was super low on FB. This business model still works and work well. However, I started two years ago Amazon FBA and already crossed 150kmonth and ditched my DS stores. I noticed everyone keeps the secrets for themselves, I understood that after reading an eBook. No one is talking on how to outrank competitors properly (Which is one of the most important thing), how to gain traffic outside Amazon (Besides influencers marketing), how to do proper off site SEO to gain additional traffic etc…

    This video just feels like an ad to both Hostinger and dropshipping.

    I would love to see an update video where the site is up for week or month. Are you going to continue working at it?

    man come on ,that was lazy .Yes okay ,it took 6 days for the ads to be approved ,so you basicly only dropshipped for ONLY 1 DAY .The title "promises " that you will dropship for 7 days .
    why didn't you actually tried for seven real days ?
    It seems to me that you just wanted to be done with the video ,you didn't actually want to try dtopshipping

    I was always concerned a product would go missing or get damaged on the way from being shipped from a factory in china to a customer in america and then I would be stuck as the go-between, being angrily asked for refunds whilst having no clue what had happened
