Hi thanks for the explanation, I’m building a store but really confused on the pricing I will be importing to store from Ali express Zopi I don’t have any products of my own to sell but I’m already paying £40 a month for the store and I haven’t sold anything because it’s not up and running yet , if I’m importing a product that they got for £10.99 what would be the best equation to break it down for profit as in this video, any advice would be appreciated thanks 🙏

3:00 Why is there an expense for wholesale? I thought with dropshipping you don’t hold or buy physical inventory, so you don’t have a wholesale fee. Is that not the case?

[@LearnWithEthos]

One concern I have NOT seen ANY Dropship 'expert' comment on : since Amazon will penalize / suspend a seller for not being able to fulfill an order or delivery within a specific time frame - it is VERY easy to have an issue with the supplier (who is fulfilling the order for you) if they run our of inventory or do not delivery on time. How do you get over this major hurdle?

[@whitneyhodgkins1114]

Don't sell on Amazon. Pretty easy.

[@runliangchen4030]

The problem is my supplier raise my dropship product price without I notice! When a customer order that product! I lose money!

[@munawarbabary6347]

Well presented. Thanks. If MAP is $1,000, this means we can’t sell below this? and we can not sell above MSRP? So our price should be between MSRP & MAP, is it correct understanding? Kindly advise. Thanks.

[@dropshiplifestyle]

So you wouldn't be able to advertise the product below $1000, but you can list it for as much as you'd like.

[@АниСашова-з7ю]

What if the MAP and WHOLESALE is in the same amount how would u price the product

[@GQ-jv9uw]

Super Great Video I have a question what if I can't get approved by one of the main suppliers, should I move on to another Niche, or keep trying?

[@dropshiplifestyle]

Keep trying! One of the reasons I recommend finding at least 20 suppliers for your first store is because they will not all approve you from Day 1. You can start with what you get, then circle back and get approved with the others as you grow. I talk more about this in a training I put together here: www.dropshiplifestyle.com/webinar/ I hope that helps!

[@GiovanniMerceron]

Hey Anton, I’m a new sub to your channel, I also finished watching your webinar. Thanks for all the info. Quick question. I’m sure it obviously helps to have some familiarity and knowledge about a niche to create a store in, but would it be unwise to open a store in a niche that you may not be as well versed in, using your criteria, if there was an opportunity and interest in that niche?

[@markhopper8345]

Yes.

[@onlinebusinessroom]

Profit, Thank you for the tip

[@codypatron5968]

I am a product developer and I just paid a guy around $300 for a marketing report on Fiverr, and his numbers are way off lol, the only accurate part seems to be the estimated units sold per year. For example I have fridge/freezer specifically designed for camping in minivans and Sprinter vans. He said the manufacturing costs could be $600, and his suggested retail price was $1000 But if a rooftop camping tent for cars, jeeps ect can cost...........$3000, then what could be the manufacturing cost this product? $1500? Then how the heck could my product, which is more involved, cost only $600 to produce? So is the markup for these type of products 50%.....%100.....or what? Please give some insight I'm very confused!

[@ADthatsme]

so u have to contact suppliers in multiple niches before buidliding a store. Asking what best selling products are. So u can have 1 high ticket prod minimum and others to up-sell. Or must u have a store 1st

How much of your profit do you reinvest back into your business ? Like what percentage is the normal range for dropshipping ?

[@arthurrobinson5665]

Profit-Thank You

[@RemyAjenifuja]

Profit! Thanks Anton🤓

[@TheMLMGold]

Can we sell for more than the Minimum Advertised Price, afterall it's just the minimum price, or does that out price us from the market?

[@weirdguygaming8857]

Market research!

[@darianmarson9434]

Are shipping costs always that high??

[@kk-gu1zv]

Thanks for the video! I am looking to get into ecom. But if I am not mistaken this equation does not count in that one has to spent the product price for the next sold item. So if one gets $200 in net profit, but the cogs is $500, he is left to pay $300 upfront, just to cover the cogs for the next item. Which he ultimately does not make back in profit at any point. Or am I missing something? (it is late so excuse me if I did lol)

[@weirdguygaming8857]

Makes sense if ur buying upfront...but in dropshipping u pay for product only after u get a sale so there it's not required

[@weirdguygaming8857]

I think how it goes is : 1st round : cogs 500, profit 200 2nd round : cogs 300 (reinvesting 200 from round 1) hence utilizing all capital from round 1 3rd round we get MORE profit in equation as our cogs went down to 300 instead of 500 with pretty much no out of pocket money (since the remaining 200 was profit and was gained in round 1) So round 3 will have profit at 200 (savings after reinvesting the original 200) + 200 (profit for this round) = 400 Round 4 : cogs go down to 100 as we reinvest 400 entirely from previous rounds. So we get 400 for free (previous rounds profit) + 200 profit Profit is 200 from round 1 (original equation) as well as regaining 400 (as it's never from our pocket) Round 5 : cogs is -100 since now 400+200 is reinvested entirely from previous round and so our profit increases by 100 every round so on n so forth This is the best i could come up with 😅

[@brianmatthews6326]

So are drop shippers supposed to be putting a 100% margin on all products and still be able to keep up with Amazon and other suppliers or is this just for mapped Products from Suppliers? And does Ali Express have mapped suppliers? Or is this for when we go out on our own looking for direct suppliers?

[@y2kpinkofficial]

im running a dropshipping store with sourcing products for dser but i have no idea, how to look at the profit ill earn per product, this is very confusing i need help

[@dropshiplifestyle]

Anton's approach emphasizes working directly with domestic suppliers rather than using third-party services like DSers. Sourcing products locally ensures faster shipping times, better product quality, and more reliable inventory management. He covers this strategy extensively in his free training, so don't miss out!

[@KINGTHEYORKIE]

When you say wholesale cost? They might want the buyer to buy it bulk in order to get the wholesale cost right!? I notice also that a lot of companies charge extra to dropship! What can you advice about that?!

[@dropshiplifestyle]

When I say wholesale cost I am referring to the actual Cost of Goods Sold (COGS). This is the price you pay for a specific item from your supplier(s). With the suppliers we work with (that are drop ship friendly) there is no order minimum as they expect to drop ship for us. Regarding suppliers that charge extra fees, I consider these Bronze Suppliers and I typically do not recommend working with them. I cover this in more detail here: www.dropshiplifestyle.com/webinar/ I hope that helps!

[@KINGTHEYORKIE]

@@dropshiplifestyle thank you so much!! It did help! I’ll be watching the webinar

[@ZohaibKhan-ph8ws]

Hey thanks for the video. you estimated advertising cost to be 10% of selling price. That would mean our ROAS has to be 10x. That’s a very unlikely scenario and a rare occurrence. Not sure if I’d pick a product and bank on 10x ROAS to be profitable.

[@dropshiplifestyle]

You're welcome, Zohaib! To clarify, 10X ROAS is not unlikely with our business model. We run very targeted shopping ads that only appear to people who are searching for the products we sell. The searchers see an image of the product we're selling, the price, and any discounts/offers that we're promoting before they click through to our site. If we were just running direct response ads to cold audiences on FB and going for 10X ROAS then yes, that would be hard to achieve, but that's not our model.

[@courtneyann.w]

Thanks Anton !

[@dropshiplifestyle]

You're welcome, Courtney! 🙌

[@michaelbassolino]

Hi Anton, I'm a DSL member I don't believe there is any mention of this formula anywhere in the blueprint? It would have been helpful to know this before uploading suppliers that don't meet the criteria in this video. I spent a lot of time uploading supplier and $ on ads that I thought was a 'gold' supplier. They are roughly 65% of MAP not 100%. Really frustrating.

[@dropshiplifestyle]

Hi Michael, Sorry to hear that! This is covered in detail in lesson 0.1 of the Blueprint: blueprint.dropshiplifestyle.com/topic/foundations-of-ecommerce/

[@michaelbassolino]

@@dropshiplifestyle Thanks for the reply Anton. The module 0.1 covers a lot but I don't see your suggestion of MAP price should = 2x wholesale cost. I could be missing it. If the suppliers are suppliers are unwilling to to give a better wholesale price (MAP = 2x wholesale) should I stop using paid PLA for those suppliers?

[@jddilfer]

Question: Do you find that suppliers are willing to provide wholesale cost and MAP prior to you building the website and committing to sell their product? If not, how do you find this information in advance to make an educated decision?

[@monopolythesecond]

No they’re not willing..they guard those prices pretty well

[@nickallard9156]

Hi Anton. Just set up a business using the dropship lifestyle blueprint but google permanently suspended my merchant center account for misrepresentation when I attempted to list supplier's products. Is this a new development in google's crackdown on dropshipping?

I have seen the Super Tan brothers conference talk on dropshipping, they are very successful dropshippers selling 8 figures store, it seems there are still many dropshippers sourcing from China still don't offer free shipping. So I'm not sure how true is your claim that everyone is offering free shipping these days.

[@dropshiplifestyle]

Hey @Jeremy, I've spoken with them at a couple different meetups and I believe they sell inexpensive products and sell to many different countries. We sell expensive products (AOV of $1,000+) and only ship to the countries in which the products are warehoused. It may be that they and their competitors charge for shipping, but with our model that is not the case.

[@exposu]

Given the fact that advertising requires $33/day roughly then this business model your teaching will only work if you are selling products that are quite expensive because the cheaper the product your selling the greater the percentage of your profit margin goes to advertising. e.g. if I sell a product at $100 and I'm left with 32% profit, i.e. $32 then after advertising ($100) I'm at a loss for $68. I mean just because a product is cheaper to sell the advertising of the product still remains roughly the same, i.e. $33/day. It seems that any product under $500 wouldn't give you a profit if roughly $100 goes towards advertising. Have I misunderstood something here because your business model seems to only work for products which sell for over $500...
