Top products from r/dropship

I'm not American, so I'm unaccustomed to American pricing expectations, but, that said, isn't $14,99 quite a lot of money for "novelty" socks? I mean, they're nice looking and I'm sure the quality is great, but it still feels like a lot of money for socks.


Took a quick peek at amazon - 8 pairs of polka-dot socks for $17,99? I think price might be a big part of the conversions problem.

Get better pictures of your items without the packaging in the back or the hand. The phone case should take up the majority of the screen, and you can get someone on Fiverr to remove the background for a few dollars. Because the camera is so zoomed out, to where it's including so much other crap in the shot, it's difficult to see the items well from the home page because the item is such a small part of the picture. You might be able to find professional pics on AliExpress or elsewhere on the internet. These pics look like they were taken with a camera phone by somebody just working out of their house, which may be true and there's nothing wrong with that, but you want your customers to think you're a big, established company, and a big company would have professional looking pictures with a plain white background.

You can buy an inexpensive photo light box to take pics of your items so they'll have nice lighting and a clean white background. (AliExpress has those even cheaper, if you don't mind waiting much longer to get it.)

I did a quick search and found a very similar product on Amazon:

Here's what I recommend you should be asking yourself:
> Why should people buy this from me and instead of buying it from a trusted source like Amazon?


Once you have a reasonable answer to that question the rest of the process is less of an uphill battle.


Just remember, your audience is not a flock of sheep that will give you their hard-earned dollars just because they saw an ad on Facebook.


Give value, get sales. Give lots of value, get lots of sales.

I looked up two of your products from random. To do this, I use "Search Google for Image" which is available by right-clicking over an image when using Google Chrome. Then it's easy to see all the people who use the same supplier images and thus the competition.

One was half the price from another dropshipper, the other was almost half price from Amazon.

You need to mindful of your possible competition when researching if a store is a good idea or not.

Dog jewellery is pretty much saturated unless you can narrow down or cross-niche with another area.

I partially disagree. This is quite true if I were to give you a 3-step process where, at the end, you are guaranteed to receive 1000$ from me. Unless I'm charging more than the 1000$, I'm not making a profit.

That said, just like this subreddit needs better moderation, it also needs to get over its aversion to paid content. Because that information does exist in books, seminars, and yes, online courses, but it will only be accessible via a paywall. Breakthrough Advertising (amazon link - not affiliated!), for example, is a book that is kept rare by artificial scarcity, and yet, you'll find people who swear up and down by it, from gurus to CEOs.

In the same way, the largest names and personalities on youtube really do probably know what they're talking about. It's the fakers and imitators - the people trying to copy the success without the knowledge - that OP needs to watch out for, because they really are just predators.
