How many of you guys are actually making money?

Hello! I have been trying shopify a few times during 2018, not too serious (only spent 100$ on ads) but did not make one sale. I understand that you need to spend more to make money - but anyway i am just curious to see how many of you guys that are actually making money off this stuff.

I do not really trust all the youtubers and other “gurus” whom only wants to cash in on that ad revenue and sell their overpriced course to kids - and when even these people upload videos with the title “Is Shopify Finally Dead???!” i am getting sort of thoughtful if there is barely anyone out there who is really profiting of dropshipping these days. But we are entering the time of year where sales come easier - so i am basically thinking about trying it again and spending more - both time and money in to it this time.

So i would gladly hear some stories on your history with dropshipping and if/how you are successful.

Peace!

Put in the time and it can work.

Try this. Look at your interests. Look at a niche within them.

Find a product that fits into this super niche. Go to facebook groups, test out questions and ideas.

Find out who your target customer is, or create a target customer.

Emotionally connect with them through design, copy, and product.

Make it all congruent.

Then, make advertise.

Boom. You’re making money.

Too hard? Go to the 9-5.

Sound interesting? Learn photoshop, sketch, figma, buy copywritting books, web design. Learn a little code. Just enough.

Then launch.

The answer to this question varies greatly depending on who you ask. Some people are able to make significant amounts of money, while others may only make enough to cover their basic expenses. It is difficult to give an exact services number, but it is safe to say that the majority of people are making at least some money. Whether or not it is enough to support a full-time lifestyle or just enough to pay the bills is up to the individual.

Hello there! It’s understandable to have reservations about the dropshipping landscape due to the prevalence of misleading content online. While success stories do exist, it’s essential to approach dropshipping with a well-informed strategy and realistic expectations.

Much like crafting a balanced food menu, success in dropshipping requires a blend of key ingredients. Just as you’d select the right flavors to create a delicious meal, you need to choose the right products that resonate with your target audience. Just as preparing and presenting a meal takes effort, building a dropshipping business demands dedication, continuous learning, and adapting to market trends.

Remember, while some have found profitability in dropshipping, it often requires a thoughtful approach. Like trying new recipes, consider refining your tactics and investing time and effort to improve your chances of achieving positive results.

Wishing you success on your dropshipping journey – may your efforts yield a plateful of accomplishments!
