How To Start an E-Commerce Business from Zero

...without expensive start up costs like ads or inventory

(even if you have never sold a thing online)

First, what is Ebay Dropshipping?

In a nutshell, you re-sell items from online retailers at a profit and let the retailer handle delivery.

Let's begin...

1. Open an Ebay and Paypal account and link them together

Don't bother with creating a business Ebay account, not needed.
2. Get a Free Trial with a NON-API Dropshipping Software

Use Salefreaks or AutoDS

These softwares help you:

- Bulk list items
- Auto adjust price changes
- Auto Adjust Stock Levels
- Automatically place orders

Non-API Benefit: Improved visibility to buyers (AKA More $$$)
3. Find items to list from suppliers

Most Popular Suppliers:

- Amazon
- Walmart
- HomeDepot

Which items?

Simple

Sell products that are selling right now

A quick and easy way?

Check out your suppliers best seller lists in relevant categories

And list those to your store.

4. Listing Your Items

If you've got a brand new store, you need to list slowly or else you'll be suspended.

5-10 items per day for 1 month minimum.

Got an old store with selling history?

Go nuts.

Max out your limits.
5. Boost Your Sales

So you have your account set up

Software hooked up

Items listed

Now what?

Promote every single listing on your store.

Marketing>Promote Listing> Create Campaign> Bulk> All>1-5% Flat Rate

If you have decent items you will have sales by tomorrow
6. Repeat Steps 3-5

Always aim to have your monthly seller limits maxed out

If you hit your max?

Just call ebay and ask for more

They say they only give 1 raise per month but just keep calling back until they give it

I've had 5 in 1 month before
7. Time to outsource

Orders are coming in

Customer Service is ramping up

time to get a VA to help

Use Upwork or Onlinejobs(.ph) to find a quality VA

Put up a job listing for an experienced Ebay CS VA

You'll get 50 applicants overnight

Vet their knowledge thoroughly
If you made it this far, thank you. Do me a favor?
