I just started dropshipping, any tips?

My tip is to take advantage that you haven't spent a dime yet and get out of the business, it is definitely extremely crowded and the reality presented by youtube gurus is fanciful.
 
Which platform are you doing?
There are different strategies for different platform.
Can you give some details?
 
Use woocommerce and find the good niche with low competition...
And take a training for learn how to do, you'll save money and time
 
What are you doing at the moment? Don't work with trash quality suppliers like AliExpress, take the time and build a relationship with an actual reputable local supplier, niche down, and build a brand around a great product that provides value. Dropshipping trash from China with 30 day delivery times on a basic Shopify theme with no knowledge of PPC ads is a great way to waste money fast
 
Be sure to run some tests to see how long it actually takes your supplier to ship, the quality of the product or products, and how it is packaged.
Have these trial orders send to a neighbor or friend close to where you live, so you can easily retrieve them. Good luck

Dropshipping ? Number 1 tip :-
Keep away from all merchant payment (card, etc) gateways. Also keep away from PayPal, Stripe, etc, etc ... They will all steal your money nowadays, if you are doing dropshipping.
Embrace crypto, use crypto payment gateways such as CoinPayments, etc.

Yes, you are true, but a lot of guys only have PayPal and no knowledge of Crypto.

Woah who hurt you?

OP if this is something you’re interested in and have spare money laying around to invest in your venture, by all means go for it. Gain as much knowledge as you can while taking action for your store.

But mate using them would surely would be an big no for buyers , as many of them preferred paying via paypal and other strip payment ways .
 
1. Find a large Niche.
2. Upload 1000s of products. There are lots of Wordpress plugin doing it.
3. Make the content unique and readable
4. Hit with a lot of feedbacks
5. Do your onsite properly
6. Build Links (Quality Over Quantitiy)

Keep Patience. Profit! Profit!
 
My personal opinion of this niche
First of all you need to stay away from payment systems which have no guarantees
Most importantly - move the keys + make links
 
But mate using them would surely would be an big no for buyers , as many of them preferred paying via paypal and other strip payment ways .
Totally agree. If after all the effort, money and time, finally you got them to checkout page. As soon as you show them crypto payment gateway, they will bailout quickly thinking you are scammer or something.
