 So in this video I'm going to show you a Shopify dropshipping store that actually dropshipped from AliExpress and made over two million dollars. What's really interesting about this particular store as well, one of two things. So number one is a general store. So it sells lots of different products from lots of different niches. And number two is it's a Dutch dropshipping store as well. Now the reason why this is so interesting is because loads of people, pretty much the majority of people, whenever they think dropshipping and Shopify, they immediately think America, they immediately think the US and that's where you should sell because that's where the biggest market is and there's loads of people over there. But if you watch one of my recent videos where I cover how competitive dropshipping actually is, dropshipping overall is not very competitive depending on where you do it. If you do it in America to America, then yes, it's very competitive. Oberlo released their statistics, their figures for how many of their orders, obviously they're all dropshipping orders of what countries they're actually fulfilled to and the size of America, i.e. the amount of orders that go to America is bigger than the rest of the world combines. The UK in comparison is something like 5% of the size of the amount of orders actually go to the US. So if there's one thing that hopefully can take away from this video is don't always just think US tests lots of different countries. See where you get the best information and kind of data back from when running your Facebook ads and then you can rebuild and redesign your store around that particular country. One quick note then before we jump into this video is I just want to say or stress the importance of looking at successful Shopify stores on a weekly basis. I'm going to try and bring videos like this every single week to YouTube so we can do it at the same time together but behind the scenes in my own time I'm always trying to find successful Shopify stores. Look at what types of products they're selling, look at the design of the stores, the little kind of design touches, how often that they're posting content, what kind of theme they're using for their content and the more you look at people who are doing well the more it's going to rub off on you and your business. So definitely something to include in the time that you spend on your business should be looking at other successful job shipping stores. With that being said then let's jump straight into the video. So the Shopify store in this video I want to show you is shopbrands.nl so as I mentioned in the introduction it's a Dutch store that ask in 30k for this particular store and if the average profit truly is only not only if the average profit is 11k, 30k is a steal for this particular store I've read through the information in the business story by the sounds of it this guy wants to read a bit quick so I don't know who's watching this video but perhaps if you're looking for something that's ready to go then definitely something to check out. Let's have a look at the numbers then if we scroll about halfway down if you're not familiar with the exchange market of place it's basically where people come to sell their stores all the numbers are imported directly from Shopify so as it says here they can't be edited it's all legit what's really good too is it gives you like a breakdown per month of where their sales came from we can see they had a spike here in Q4 2019 if you haven't watched my previous video on one now it's such a good time to start a business and then definitely go and check that one out if you've sat watching this video and you want to get started then definitely take inspiration from these guys and just get started building your store today so two and a half dollars just under in total revenue and there's some details here when it points out so they are dropshipping from AliExpress those total sales are from AliExpress plus around 15k he says which is from a company called Admitad now to be honest with you I've been dropshipping for since 2016 so about five years and I didn't I wasn't aware of these people basically but what it pretty much looks like is that you can set up an affiliate account with these guys use your own link and then any orders you process through AliExpress which is perfect obviously if you drop shipping from AliExpress you'll then get a kick back from we can see is trusted by advertisers and AliExpress and Ali Baba are on there so I'm going to be checking this out myself and if it proves to be as good as what this guy is saying then I'll release a video shortly on how you can set it up integrate it into your own business and essentially earn cashback on all of the purchases in which you're going to be making anyway through your business if we take a look at the images up here something I want to show you is this one here so this guy is running Facebook ads I tried to find the actual products he's advertising but unfortunately it looks as if he's unpublished the Facebook page which basically means we can't find it and we can't see the ads he was running somewhere in here too he says here so we quit selling with this store completely from July first I believe this is when he shut down all of his ads shut down his Facebook page and for those reasons unfortunately I couldn't find the actual ads in which he was running but we can still learn quite a lot from this particular store so if we take a look at the Shopify store we can see it's a really nice looking theme I believe this is the venture theme I'm a really big fan of the venture theme if I just open up my koala inspector we can see it is the venture theme your thing it really annoys me about this guy as well you can tell what he's doing because if I go and best sell us he's got his best sellers hidden so unfortunately we can't see those but what we can take away from this is the design and set up of his actual website and the product pages as well the product pages are super important how you lay out and set up your product pages can make the difference between failure and success so we're going to be taking a look at those in this video too before we jump into them though I just want to point out how often he's actually featuring people on his website so real people featuring clothing with the brand's name on now he's not actually selling these clothing as you can see it's only in kind of like the customer service touches so strengthen our team we can go to his team page and they've got actual people with the brand on t-shirts on their contact us page to we can see this lady here a hoodie with the t-shirt on we can see this girl here too on the view deals page what this really does is it instills confidence and trust in your customers because you come across as a real business that has a real team of people behind which instills that trust which instantly kind of puts to bed any worries or issues that your customers might be having before making a purchase now you might be thinking how expensive for this to do it's about 15 pounds for the first month so I'm just going to take you through a very quick tutorial now using place it an absolutely brilliant tool they don't just do mock-ups with clothing they do logos and all kinds of different designs as well so they do things like gaming you can put your logos onto max or different kind of screenshots onto max but for this tutorial then let's go to apparel and we're just gonna create something very quick very simple similar to what this guy has on his website so once somebody smiling of course and somebody in some a woman sorry as we saw in his website so this woman will be perfect here we can click on this once it loads up it really is as simple as uploading your logo choosing the position you want your logo download the image and then you can put it on your website and integrate that as kind of like a way like I mentioned building credibility so recently uploaded I think got the Shopify logo I have gonna put it near the top so we can see it quite clearly on her t-shirt if we hit crop and now all of a sudden it looks like this person works for Shopify and of course Shopify is a real business but if this was your business logo then immediately it looks like a real person part of your team and again it just instills that trust with your customer if we go back to the website something else to point out too was these cards here now you might be thinking they're quite basic they're just cards but they pretty much are but they're super effective at kind of separating you from everybody else who's drop shipping so the more and more I see kind of people coming to the drop shipping space and spend time within a drop shipping space and looking at different Shopify stores it's apparent the same question kind of keeps popping up and that is that if your store just looks the same as everybody else is and you're using the same theme and kind of the same ish colors and same ish products and you can recognize it instantly as a very typical drop shipping store then won't customers also see that and that put them off and the answer to that is pretty much yes I mean as a as a drop shipper you're actually going to recognize it much more quickly it's already started happening with customers browsing through Facebook clicking on links going to websites they're all looking very similar and if they have a bad experience they're just going to see you as kind of like another pop-up untrustworthy not very legitimate business so having little things like this will separate yourself from all of those other bog standard and basic kind of stereotypical pop-up Shopify stores another thing that will really help to to legitimize your business and get your customers to trust you I can't stress this enough one of the biggest obstacles you have as a new business owner and getting people to buy your products you could have a really nice store really nice products really nice ad campaign and content etc but if your customers don't trust you they won't become customers they'll just become visitors so you need to focus on trust and building a trust where they store another way to do this is to have as you can see that what these guys have they have a head office address they have a proper email address they have a phone number and then they have the company information as well so the average consumer scrolling through this website wanting to check that where they spend their money is going to be safe would have no issues with this particular website there's real people even though they're not real people they're just models but the average person isn't going to know that they're not going to be aware of certain tools like place it but that doesn't matter because all that does matter is that they trust your website they want to buy your product and if they trust you then they will so this is their gadgets collection page if just flicking through these products now everybody's seen this product this product this product all of these products are super popular and common products but just goes to show doesn't matter as long as you do it at the right time in the correct way I have really good content to sell the products you've got a really you've got a really good website like these guys then you can still be successful so these all the different pet products these guys are selling and we can see again all the stereotypical products is if you put in pets on aliexpress you're going to see probably nine out of ten of these products on the very first page so we can see that even if you're selling really popular products it doesn't necessarily matter as long as you sell them to the right place and you have a really good strategy behind them so a lot of these products especially this bed has been sold to deaf very extensively to the US and to the UK to some degree as well but we can see selling this product to the Netherlands and I believe Belgium is a big Dutch speaker too because it's still a new product for those countries that have been able to find success so you could potentially take products not necessarily this one but something similar that you know is proven to work in America in the UK and perhaps take it to Australia or take it to Spain or France or some other country that people don't necessarily go straight to when they think drop shipping a great double check how popular your product is in a particular country and especially on Facebook so you can come on to the Facebook ad library you can search for dog bed and you'll just see endless ads about dog beds and different kind of dog gadgets and dog toys but this is currently set to all at the top so we can change this to different countries so if for example we did want to take this bed to a different country we wanted to kind of get a rough idea of how competitive it was and say France what we could do is we come up here we could put France into here we obviously want all ads and search for a dog bed and then we can see how many people are actually running ads for that specific dog bed and targeting people in France with that being said guys I'm going to wrap the video up there really hope you enjoyed the video if you did please do me the favor of hitting that like button please make sure you subscribe as
