hey are you feeling a little bit discouraged or frustrated with Shopify
well in this video I'm gonna share with you my whole journey so far and the
purpose of this video is to give you some motivation and encouragement and
I'm gonna be I'm gonna be showing you my ads manager my store like dashboard and
also I'm gonna show you my profits and I'm gonna be revealing almost everything
like besides my product so make sure to watch the whole video till the end so I
recently scaled to 2.5 K per day in the last like two weeks but before showing
you how I scaled to 2.5 k I'm gonna show you my whole journey so let's go to the
Shopify dashboard and I'm gonna show you like some stats I'm gonna talk about the
journey like the ups and downs alright we're in my Shopify dashboard so
yeah like like I showed you in the first video I think I started around like 8th
or 9th of May so yeah I think that's like 5 months ago and yeah I'm gonna
show you like month by month and talk about like the month like I'm gonna give
you like a summary of the month so yeah let's go - lets go - lets show you just
like the May so how it looked like so yeah guys so in May I started like on
the 8th or 9th and I think you can like see my video like I talked about the
journey but this is like when I started running my store and I was I was I I had
some coaching and stuff like that to kind of like jumpstart my journey I also
had some courses but they're just kind of like hidden mists so yeah the
coaching and stuff like really helped me and this was like the first month of
doing yeah and this was like doing like worldwide and stuff like that yeah so
let's go let's go to the next month ok so now we're on June so like I said
before I've failed so many times guys and the biggest reason for my failure
was just that I was that I gave up but this time I really
like you know stuck to it and took action so what I what I want you two
guys to do is just like start learning plus applying you just gotta take a lot
of action and apply what you learn and during this month that is exactly what I
did I think I talked about the coaching with
Mike which was for me it was revolutionary because I started I I
stopped for Mike I I learned so much you know like about Facebook ads and
just fulfillment and scaling and everything so during this time during
this time you know as you can see like I scale to like 1k you know and I think
there was a pro like within the first month of doing Shopify or something like
that yeah and then to to K you know and then then it was like kind of like my
products are to die and yeah I'm gonna tell you like the two products one was
like kind of niche the second the second was like more general but what was
interesting was like most of the sales were from Instagram I think like 85%
were from Instagram feed so thatís work at the time very very well for me so
yeah like I was you know like so let's go back and I'm gonna tell you like how
many how many products I tested so during the May I think I tested like two
products the first one was a complete failure
and then the second one was the winner and I think in the June I found the
second kind of winner so like all the revving you can see here during the June
during June was like from two products
yeah so I tested only three products and I had like two products that were
selling really really well you know so I kind of didn't understand that I'm in
the importance of like testing new products all the time and being
consistent with testing new products so my products are to die like as you can
see like it died doing like I don't know a week or something like that
just went completely you know and here was like a my my failed attempt you like
to revive it but as you can see like no and during the time I stopped I kind of
like lost all motivation I don't know maybe it was like depression or
something because I was sleeping like 12 hours at night and then during the day I
was also sleeping like 2 to 3 hours so I was sleeping like you know like 12 to 15
hours per day like I had no energy so during that time I didn't really do
anything and there was a reason why I took a break from YouTube because I
wasn't really doing Shopify and I didn't really have like any energy to do
anything okay so going into August so in August like at the end of the August I
graduated from University finally I finally graduated it took me six years
you know I'm not really proud of it it's kind of embarrassing that it took me so
long but yeah like during this time I wasn't also like testing that many
products as you can see like no like nope I was testing like some products
and they just weren't working you know so I was still like very like I was not
motivated you know like I was kind of you know stuck okay so during September
so during the September it was kind of like the same it was kind of like the
same story you know I was testing products I was struggling you know it
was very like unmotivated to work but still you know I just tried I try I said
like man like I can't give up you know I gotta keep pushing you know so I started
testing more products okay so now - the interesting part I'm gonna show you how
I scaled from 0 to 2.5 k and I don't know like two weeks or something like
that so it's 22nd the 27th was the day I started testing this product and yeah
let's go - lets go - ads manager yeah so let's go to ads manager and yeah now
we're at 27th - yeah so as you can see AK the ads
manager isn't very accurate you know like they're still missing like
300 dollars or something like that and at spent so the ad spent was 3000 yeah
so 3,300 dollars and this was the revenue yeah so let's go to order
metrics and I'm gonna show you something interesting you know I'm gonna show you
like the the daily profits that they had spent so you can see like some
interesting things that I've learned so far now I want to show you like hot like
my journey like with scaling this product and like with testing and
scaling this product so the 27th of September was the day I started this
product I started testing it and like right out like the first day was like
very good and I think there were like two outs icing like two products so guys
keep in mind like during those two weeks I was testing like I think like four
products or something but now I've only one product running so like I think this
first day I had two products I was testing and yeah like the results I was
very surprised you know like like the first day of testing I was like getting
21 percent profit you know that was pretty good
so the next day I think I decided to increase the ad spend yeah so I crease
it by $100 and that day like I was like I lost money so yeah I was like I'm not
sure you know if it's a winner but I feel like I see you like a potential in
it so I just kept I just kept going so the third day on day 3 so we can see
kind of lowered the ad spend a little bit tested some new ad sets you know
turned off some and just one dollar profit it's kind of funny okay so day
four okay so day four I also increase the ad spin as you can see and but I
lost quite a lot of money like like fifty fifty five percent in the negative
but that's still fine a thing like your loss I kind of like
adding consistency like my conversion rate like really dropped okay so let's
go to the today I think it's day five or something
yeah day five okay so this day our kind of like I try I try to like lower that
spend as you can see but I was still losing money so at that point I was
thinking man maybe this product isn't a winner but butter yeah I just I just
tried I just pushed again increase the ad spent you know by fifty percent two
hundred dollars but it started to get better as you can see here so yeah like
with finding your winners I thought it's gonna be like like you lose money like
for the first week and then you start making money or you start making money
right away but the thing is like with drop shipping
it's not linearly it's like up and down so you know like there is no there is no
like cookie cutter there is no like one weight that everything happens you know
so even like with advice on Shopify drop shipping not all advice works like what
works for somebody does it doesn't mean that it work it will work for you so you
just have to test what works for you you know and that's what I'm kind of doing
here so as you can see like the next day I
was still losing money and now it's been like a week or something you know since
I launched it and it's still kind of like up and down and up and down but
they're after like I think this is like day seven like finally it started to
perform a little bit you know at 14% margin yeah so let's go to like day
eight or something like that so this day this day like you know a conversion rate
drop like a lot I think it was like 5% or 6% like the day before and then it
dropped by 50% and you know as you can see I profit also drop so the lesson
here is like guys you got to really try to optimize your store your product page
and as you can see like it really affects a profitability you know so try
to optimize it maybe I'm gonna make a video on it if you guys are interested
but let's go to the next day so now it has been like 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 so this
is day 10 okay so day 10 so yeah so let's go
so my ad spend didn't really change but as you can see like the conversion rate
really increased and that led to a lot of like profit you know I think it was
just like adding because in consistency that's why I like my conversion suddenly
dropped like buy so much so you're gonna experience that as well yeah so this is
like the seventh I think on the 7 I launched I launched like 30 ad sets of
look-alikes you know like because like okay so like here on Saturday I launched
VC look-alikes and that really helped you know as you can see like via content
look likes and like my revenue just went up a lot like it went from like 500 to
1,000 dollars then the next day yeah we are at okay so here this day I launched
like 30 assets of video view look like I complete forgot about them so I launched
those and yeah I prop like the margin was like 19 19 percent yeah and
yesterday Israeli was my best day so far and it was 2.5 2.5 k yeah $2,500 but the
margin was like really good it was like 29 percent you know profit was $700 and
let's look at today so so today I think we're through like the half of the day
so half of the day is you know of the of the ad spent you know so it's half of
the day and so far we are at 1.8 K so maybe we'll end at free K I
think probably around around 3k maybe a little bit more but what you're seeing
right now like the 2.5 k and today it is just it is just cold interests view
content look-alikes video view look-alikes
there is no there's no retargeting there is no look likes for ad to card and
purchase and that's because I made a huge mistake I start using like this app
called pixel magic with that AB you can have two pixels I wanted to have like a
backup but yeah like the pixel magic like the pixel from from dan from the
app it it's not working for my store like I can't I can't really do like I
can't really create like custom audiences for Add to Cart I can't do
retargeting you know because I'm doing DP a dynamic product ads I'm doing IDP a
ads but it's not working because of that so as you can see this is now like all
without those look-alikes without retargeting and I'm getting like 25
percent margin you know like 20 to 30 let's say and this is all without
retargeting and without those the best look-alikes you know so if if I would
have that it would be probably way way better but yeah guys so yeah I hope this
this was useful like this is like proof if you guys like maybe don't believe me
or something you can see like the ads band was 3000 that's it you know as you
can see you know I was struggling for I don't know like 2 or 3 months you know
like I was doing like no revenue I and I was like very discouraged you know but
during that time I tested like 13 to 15 products and I found one there was
really like a winner so the thing is guys
you're kinda you're kind of like one product away from changing your life so
really just keep going I don't give up and just work hard every day you know
like if you if you won't quit your job or if you want to drop out of school
which I kind of don't recommend but yeah like if you want to change your life
just like dropshipping it's not the best business model but for people like for
people who want to be like independent line travel you know or create something
from nothing you know like drop shipping is still pretty good guys so yeah like
don't don't watch those videos like that drop shipping is dead it's not dead it's
just become it's just became a little bit more challenging so you just need to
learn how to be a better marketer you just need to learn how to increase your
conversion rate how to increase your average order value and how to create
really good like ads as well like ad creatives you just got to learn a little
bit more you know but it's still it's still totally possible and I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be showing you like I'm gonna give you some updates on like how I'm
doing with scaling I hope this was helpful for you if you're struggling
just just keep going man just just keep pushing just keep learning and keep
applying you know like what you learn just just take a lot of action like I
have failed I think like ten businesses like I said in the beginning of my
channel and it was because I just gave up like I got frustrated you know I
stopped hustling I stopped learning I stopped taking action and yeah like if
you if you want to succeed you just gotta keep taking action and keep trying
