Are you interested in starting your own dropshipping business in 2024? Dropshipping has become an increasingly popular way to make money online, and with the right guidance, it can be a lucrative and fulfilling business venture. In this ultimate dropshipping for beginners tutorial, we will cover everything you need to know to get started with dropshipping in 2024.
What is Dropshipping?
Dropshipping is a business model where you, as the retailer, sell products to customers without holding any inventory. Instead, when a customer makes a purchase, you purchase the product from a third-party supplier who then ships it directly to the customer. This means that you don’t have to deal with the hassle of managing inventory or shipping products yourself, making it a low-risk and cost-effective way to start an online business.
Step 1: Choose a Niche
The first step in starting a dropshipping business is to choose a niche. Your niche should be something you are passionate about and have an interest in, as this will make it easier for you to market and sell products within that niche. Consider your hobbies, interests, and what you are knowledgeable about, and then research the market to see if there is demand for products in that niche.
Step 2: Research Suppliers
Once you have chosen a niche, the next step is to research potential suppliers for your dropshipping business. You can use platforms like AliExpress, Oberlo, or SaleHoo to find suppliers that offer the products you want to sell. It’s important to vet your suppliers carefully to ensure they are reliable and offer high-quality products.
Step 3: Set up Your Online Store
After you have chosen a niche and found reliable suppliers, it’s time to set up your online store. You can use platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, or BigCommerce to create your store and list the products you want to sell. Make sure to create a visually appealing and user-friendly website, and optimize it for search engines to drive traffic to your store.
Step 4: Market Your Products
Once your store is up and running, the next step is to market your products to drive traffic and generate sales. You can use a combination of paid advertising, social media marketing, content marketing, and influencer partnerships to promote your products and attract customers to your store.
Step 5: Fulfill Orders
When a customer makes a purchase from your store, you will need to fulfill the order by purchasing the product from your supplier and having it shipped directly to the customer. Make sure to communicate with your suppliers regularly to ensure that orders are being fulfilled in a timely manner.
In conclusion, starting a dropshipping business in 2024 can be a great way to make money online and be your own boss. By choosing the right niche, finding reliable suppliers, creating a professional online store, and marketing your products effectively, you can build a successful dropshipping business from the ground up. So, if you’re ready to take the plunge and start your own dropshipping business, use this ultimate dropshipping for beginners tutorial as a guide to get started on the right foot.

5:31 Myth. Fact: It is all about the product – A good, kind of untapped product that turns out to be a winner after testing, will sell even on the most generic and boring looking store.
Hi i have a question can i use the product images from cj dropshipping or will i get copyright on my store if use them
Hey, I have a question. What will happen if I set my shipping rate to free, but all my products are few bucks more then full price of produkt. Would I pay that shipping. I don't understand this shipping and delivery method.
I have a question on timestamp 1227. There is no list it now button for me. Do you know how I can fix this?
I have a few questions please. Is it possible to start doing this at the age of 15? How to get customers? And how I get paid? Will I spend a lot of money on this?
Firstly, this video is an excellent beginners guide so thank you very much for your effort. I have a question. When I click “list” on my product to add it to my Shopify store, in the store name section I see my store but not my actual store name. Instead it has that random name with letters and numbers which probably had been created once I signed up to Shopify, I was wondering if that would be a problem once I add it on my store as I said I cannot see my actual store name? Thank you. 🙂

Thank you this is a great video only question I have is when a customer orders from your website do you have to pay for it out of your own pocket and in a couple of days you'll get your commission.?
But I am a little confused about the payment method , like when the product is shipped to customer , there they will pay us but how we can give the shares of the supplier , how can we divide the money which is not fully ours but also of supplier .
Thank you!!!

I am a fifteen year old in high school and I want to get into drop shipping, I have a debit card and the funds to get started but I just don’t know if there is like an age limit I guess. I just want to know if I can still make money doing this as a young adult and if it is considered a stable source of income if I pursued this line of work for a few years and wanted to buy a house or rent an apartment. Also how long does it take on average to get a decent flow of money going. And could I make a living off of this or is it more of a side hustle?
do you have a video of how you acknowledge the order of a customer and tell the supplier to release the item for shipping
but do you need to buy like 5 of those items to Sell them
needed to have paypal account so that the profit will going there?

I’m going to start drop shipping can I do it at age 12?
Great tutorial! but im a little stuck on 33:30, when you said active mode on, for mine it keeps saying inactive mode, and said "This market can't be activated because 32 countries/regions are missing shipping rates. Add rates." i am very confused on that part.
i’m confused how we get paid?
I've been watching your vids lately and I have two querries in my mind lately.
1. Since my shop will be a new one, how can I deal with the ratings?
2. How about taxes? I am a foreigner and I want to base my shop in the US or CA. Is this possible?
Please forgive me, but can you start the drop shipping store without payment and can you order from a company without payment and sell something on your store before you you have to pay them?

Too good!
