What I wish I knew before starting Organic Dropshipping (700K+ Revenue Later) transcript

Yo, what's good, boys? In today's video, I'm going to be telling you guys what I wish I knew sooner doing organic drop shipping. So, everything that I failed, everything that I did that was wrong, I'm going to give you guys I'm going to tell you guys now so you don't do the mistakes that I did. So, I just have my notes here and I don't really have a specific order of how this is going. I've just made notes and I'm going to read them.

They're They're kind of just going to be mixed up. You don't need a perfect store to start. You just need something that works and something that's clean. So, don't waste hours and days making your store if it's only going to increase your conversion rate by like 0.1%. Obviously, when you want to optimize, you want to make the best store possible. But, when you're first going viral, you just want to get that website out as soon as possible.

Obviously, make sure everything works, all the buttons work, all of the copy makes sense, and you don't have any critical errors with checkout or any of that stuff. But, wasting hours and hours and days on creating a website before publishing it is just a waste of time and you're losing money. If you're currently going viral or you have videos that are getting views, publish your website. You can always edit everything while the store is published letting people check out.

Your first 50 videos are probably going to be horrible. So, the best thing to do is just get this out of the way. Get some products and just film. Don't worry about going viral. Worry about learning how to film properly, how to get viral [music] content, and just post. Get your reps in. Nobody's first video is going to be perfect. So, stop focusing on making it [music] perfect. Focus on getting your reps in, becoming confident with the product in your hand, and being steady on camera.

Eventually, you'll be a pro at filming content and you'll know exactly what to do. The product matters more than everything else. If you have a really good product, it will almost go viral itself. The product is the most important thing because that's what you're selling. You can have a really, really good product and have a bad website, have bad content, [music] and still make money. But, if you switch any of the variables and you have a bad product, [music] you're never going to make any sales.

The product can really carry heavy. The product can carry your conversions. It can carry your virality. It can even carry the engagement. [music] That's why product research is so important because without having a good product, you don't have anything else. Viral does not mean converting. Seeing videos on your burner with millions of views [music] does not mean they're making money. It could simply mean that the content is just engaging.

It could also mean that their controversy made the video go viral for completely different reasons. And most of the times you can see this. If you just look at the comments. If nobody is demanding for the product, no one's asking where to buy and it's just comments about other stuff, all the controversy, or just whatever else that's not related to the product, >> [music] >> then they're probably not converting. Focus on making high-quality videos that center your product and put the focus on the product rather than the entertainment and rather than unneeded controversy.

At the beginning, you need volume, not perfection. I kind of said this earlier, but you just want to get your reps in. Stop worrying about perfection. With content, with your store, with product research, just do it. Get your reps in. Get volume in. Being perfect, waiting for the perfect moment is never going to work. Just start now. This is a huge one. Don't reinvent the wheel. So many times people think they are Albert Einstein.

Stop trying to find new things. Do what is currently working and [music] just do more of it. Find a new angles. Find new variants. Find new ways that you can make what is currently working continue working. Trying to find a brand new product off of AliExpress is never going to work. So stop trying to reinvent the wheel and do what works. The burner method [music] is actually a cheat code. When I started organic drop shipping, I thought the burner method was horrible.

I would waste hours and days looking for a product and I feel like and I felt like I couldn't find anything. In reality, I just didn't train my eye enough. I didn't train my criteria enough. Everything that you're seeing on the burner is stuff that's currently going viral and stuff that is currently selling. So if you do it properly, the burner method will always be the best method. AliExpress is a hit or miss. Most people quit right before it works.

I actually didn't fall into this trap. However, when I was going on my journey, I had months and months and months with literally zero success. I [music] was testing product after product after product without getting a viral video, without getting any sales. But, I knew that it was going to work out, and eventually I was getting more and more and more momentum, and I just knew my break was coming. >> [music] >> I even knew when I was going to get my first sale.

I could tell that it was just around the corner. The next product I test, I'm going to get my sale. And eventually, I got it. So, stick to it. Stop quitting. Stop changing business model. Lock in. "Drop shipping is saturated." or "Drop shipping is dead." This is completely not true. First of all, selling products online is never going to die unless the internet dies. Drop shipping cannot be dead or saturated. Just become the best.

If drop shipping was saturated, then how could I come into drop shipping years and years and years after the prime and get a $93,000 day? It just makes no sense. If you're the best at your skill, then nothing is saturated. Maybe the amount of drop shippers at this level is saturated, but I'm at this level here. It is not saturated up here. So, get to the level up here, and you don't have to worry about any of that. You don't need motivation, you need [music] discipline.

Motivation is an emotion. Discipline is an action. You should not be living your life based off emotions, you should be living it based off what you say you're going to do, and then do it. Nobody cares if you don't feel like going to the gym. Nobody cares if you don't [music] feel like filming. Nobody cares if you don't feel like working. The ones that succeed are the ones that don't succumb to their emotions. Stop waiting for the perfect product.

[music] I know so many people spending weeks and weeks trying to find a product. Bro, just take a product and test it. Stop wasting your time on the burner. Stop acting like you're actually putting in work until you start testing products. It's so much better to test a bad product than it is to spend a week testing nothing. Speed is key. Just like most business models, drop shipping needs speed. When I see a banger product on my burner account, I instantly order it.

Within 24 hours, it's at my door and I already have all my accounts set up. All of my content ideas are ready to do it, ready to film. And just after 24 hours of seeing a product, I can instantly start filming for it and already starting to get views and I can basically start getting money as of 24 hours of seeing a banger product. So, stop waiting for the right moment. Stop procrastinating. If you see a product, buy it.

If you have videos to film, film them. At first, you're not going to understand anything that's going on or anything that you're doing. When I started drop shipping, for months, I didn't even believe I could go viral. I genuinely thought that my phone or my IP address was shadow banned. I literally could not go viral after posting hundreds of videos. But, in reality, I just didn't really know what I was doing. I was posting and hoping.

I also had these limiting beliefs that made me believe that it wasn't in my hands. When in reality, everything was up to me. Everything was in my hands and and I could determine my own future. Stop thinking every business model is easy. Drop shipping is a full-time business. It is a business model. It's not a side hustle. It's not something you put 2 hours into a day. You have to be working for this. Put all of your effort into this.

If not, you're never going to see success. You're competing with others that are willing to post more times in a day with the same product that you guys are testing. What's going to differentiate you from your competition? Stop mentally masturbating while watching YouTube videos. You might think you're being productive while watching educational or motivational YouTube videos, but in reality, if you're not learning and writing down and actually implementing what you're learning, you're just wasting your time thinking that you're doing work, but you're just you're just watching YouTube videos for entertainment just like anybody else's.

So, the most important thing is when you learn stuff, write it down, take notes so that you can implement those things you learned into your work. This is what I preach in my organic boot camp series on YouTube. You aren't allowed to go to the next episode of [music] the boot camp until you implement every single thing from the previous video. So, this is making sure that everyone that watches does everything I say before going to the next video.
