the first thing you need to realize is

that Shopify is not the only place where you can drop ship in fact for beginners it's not even the best place while Shopify Drop Shipping is great there are many problems with it for beginners that you need to be aware of first with Shopify you'll be responsible for building the entire website yourself that means picking a name buying a domain and building out the entire website it's a big project and if you're a complete beginner you may end up with a website that looks pretty cruddy once

you create your Shopify store you'll then need to do product research and pick the one product that you're going to sell in that store this is an extremely unforgiving process because if your research is off and you pick a bad product it could be weeks before you find out and you'll probably waste a lot of money in the process and that's because with a Shopify store you need to pay for Facebook Tick Tock or Google ads to get people to actually visit your website and running ads can be very expensive and will actually be a total waste of money if no one even wants the items that you're selling that's why for

beginners I really recommend you

for beginners I really recommend you start off by selling on a Marketplace like eBay or Amazon and in particular I think that eBay is one of the most beginner friendly and simplest places you can start selling with marketplaces you don't need to build a website or pay for ads ebay. com it already exists and there are already a lot of customers there looking to buy stuff so you might as well go where the customers already are on top of that if you list up the wrong items for sale and no one buys them it doesn't really matter you can just delete them from your eBay store and list up the right items and start making some sales so it's a lot more flexible and forgiving than something like Shopify now not everyone who drops ships on eBay is successful it does require work but what you can do is look at stores on eBay that are already successfully Drop Shipping and copy exactly what they're selling I like to

use the software to help me do this

called Zeke analytics because Z can actually tell you how well other drop shippers are doing on eBay so for instance I'm going to start by coming over here to Walmart and let's actually go into the different departments here let's find something in just a random category here I really like home furniture and appliances that kind of category or home and kitchen so let's go into ones that are only available on Walmart so these are like Walmart exclusive items and let's click on a random one here and let's just find a product here that has some decent reviews because that will tell us that it is a popular item that other people might be Drop Shipping as well here we go here is a best seller right here with 30 feedback so I'll open this one up I'm going to copy down the title and then I'm going to come over to the software I just mentioned which is called Zeke analytics which again helps us do product research so I'm going to click on the left where it says product research and paste in that title and let's see if anything comes up okay so two listings show up here are two sellers selling this product and you can see right here zika has added so there's two listings for this on eBay two different sellers here are the names of the sellers and you can see right here that under this product's name is this symbol right here this is Zeke analytics telling you that hey we are really sure that this person is in fact Drop Shipping that is really helpful to us because we are looking for people like this we're looking for people who are already Drop Shipping on eBay and then based on the amount of feedback that they have which in this case is over twenty six thousand we know that not only are they drop shipping but they are doing it very successfully now even though this one doesn't have a Drop Shipping symbol on it they probably are Drop Shipping themselves so what I can now do is I can actually scan these sellers stores so this button right here that says scan seller will actually open up a new tab here and we'll look at all the products that this seller is selling or that they have listed in their store and it will tell you which ones of them are actually selling right now in the past month and overall so we can see like these what are these like saw blades these have sold 13 times in the past month this breaker panel has sold 12 times these desserts like some sort of like low calorie dessert have sold 10 times this power tool is sold nine times in the past month so these are all items that I'm interested in because I want to sell items into my own eBay store right now that are popular doing well within the past 30 days or so and that is exactly what Zeke analytics is telling us right here so all I have to do is now find these items on another supplier's website maybe that's Walmart we already know this person does Walmart to eBay Drop Shipping they might also be doing Amazon or something else but this will now unlock for us all of these items that we can now sell ourselves like this toolbox that sold seven times it costs 87 in fact overall it sold about 60 times which is pretty cool to see and once you go through all of these items now we can go ahead and scan the other seller as well and see if they have anything interesting that we might be able to sell and sure enough yeah they have this one that sold seven times across fifty dollars we have this kind of crate that sold five times in the past month for sixty eight dollars so there's plenty of products here that we can now drop ship ourselves so when it comes to this product research I always use Zeke analytics to do it because it makes it so easy and it breaks it down for me like this so if you want to try it out for yourself Zeke for yourself you can use my link in the description below to get a free trial so now let's actually find this item on our suppliers website or some of these items so let's look at this one right here I like the look of this wood crate so go ahead and open this up this should open it up on eBay for me and what I'll do is I will scroll down to the description which is right here I'm going to go ahead and highlight that description and copy it and then I'll come over to Google search for that description so I see a result pops up right here for Amazon so just as I suspected this person's not just drop shipping from Walmart but also from Amazon so I'm gonna go ahead and open this up and I see this looks pretty similar but the color looks off right ah here's the correct color right here so that's what they're doing they're Drop Shipping this from Amazon onto Walmart we found this item right here so now that we've found

this item you'll next want to add this

into your own eBay store now there's a

few ways to do this the first way is the

manual way so that would involve you opening up a blank listing here on eBay so I'll type in here wood record crate start this listing and now we have this blank listing here on eBay that we'd be able to fill in so we'd have to download all those images from Amazon upload them here copy and paste the title make it better description fill in all these item specifics so you could do it this way but it would take a

lot of time and there's actually a much

easier and faster way to do this using a website called autods which I have open right here audio DS is basically a software that automates your eBay drop shipping stores for you to set it up you'll want to click my link for autods in the description down below because with that you'll get like a one dollar trial then you can sign up for an account and it will walk you through how to link up autods with your eBay account now like I said audio DS does a whole lot for your Drop Shipping Store but to start out all you really need to know is you need to click right here where it says add products single product and then it's going to ask for the URL of this product so we have that right here here's the listing on Amazon I'll go ahead and copy the URL and then we can go ahead and plug that URL in here it says Amazon and now I'm going to click where it says edit now quick now the

reason we didn't just publish this into our store right away is because we need to make this title better we need to fully optimize this title and by that I mean we need to fill it with keywords that people are actually searching for on eBay this title that's given to us by Amazon it might work on Amazon but it probably doesn't work on eBay so we need to get rid of this and what I'll do is go over to Zeke analytics and let's click on the left where it says title Builder and again we're going to put in here what was this thing again like a wood record crate and we'll search for it wood record crate storage right what this will do zik analytics it will tell you hey when people search for this product they're also searching for these keywords they're putting these words in the search field things like vinyl record storage crate wood vinyl record cube shelf wood some other ones over here like vinyl wood album vintage display record storage so as many of these that make sense we are going to include in the title for this item so this tells us that the most popular search right here is vinyl record storage so I'm going to start with that do this vinyl record storage crate what other words make sense we have wood right that's in here wood this is definitely made of wood so I'll throw that in there right now I'm just throwing the words in there and we will rearrange them later because on eBay you can only have a maximum of 80 characters for your listing as you see right here for the title right now we're at 32. so I'm going to fill that up as much as possible get it to as close to 80 as possible so again right now we're just throwing in those words we have the word record oh we have that one already album throw that one in there album what else vintage do I have vintage nope vintage display organizer record storage bin dark brown wood I think there's a dark brown yeah that's not debatable so through dark wood bin and we're at 77 characters so I don't think we're gonna get anything more than that now notice that I deleted from this the name of the brand of this product and that's because most brand names aren't things you want to keep in the title they're usually brands that people haven't heard of or they're not going to be searching for when they're searching for these products so often I will just leave them out I also delete any sort of punctuation like commas or dashes or exclamation points because they just waste room as well so my goal now is to rearrange this make it look a little bit nicer and ideally I want the first kind of group of words to fully describe the product on their own in this case vinyl record storage crate I think is a pretty solid description of what this product is and it's an also benefit that is one of the most common Search terms for this item so we have that then we have wood album vintage display or wood let's just rearrange this a little bit this doesn't have to make a ton of sense but as long as it kind of makes somewhat sense album display organizer we'll do we have the word wood in here twice so I want to get rid of wood vintage dark wood album display organizer bin so I think that is pretty good right there again the rest of it doesn't have to make a ton of sense but that is a well optimized title that's full of keywords that people are actually searching for when they're looking for this product which means that it's going to show up higher in the search results when people are looking for this because Autodesk is

now linked with your eBay store it will update the prices on eBay if the price on Walmart changes will put your eBay items out of stock if the item goes out of stock in Walmart and it can even automatically order items from Walmart for you if you get that set up so that means you're going to want to make sure that your eBay store is set up correctly your auto DS account is as well that you master product research and that you're adding the right products into your eBay store every single day and I know that might sound like a lot and very complicated so what I've done is I've put together a webinar for you that shows you how to do this yourself and also shows you a lot of other really important steps for eBay Drop Shipping that you need to know about so if you want to check that out you can go to the first link in the description down below and watch it for free right now but if
