What’s up everyone, I’m Ricky.
Just a regular guy from a small town in Wisconsin. If I can do this, so can you.
First things first, dropshipping is:
- NOT dead
- NOT a get rich quick scheme
- Definitely NOT a scam
Don’t believe the people saying that. They just suck at it.

For those asking “What is Shopify Dropshipping?”
It is when you:
- Find a product on Aliexpress
- Build a Shopify store for this product and inflate the price
- Drive traffic to your store through paid advertising & make sales
Here’s a graphic I made to help understand it.

The Product:
I went with 1 product plus 1 upsell.
My product is unique, in a niche and can’t be found at big box retailers like Walmart, Target, etc
The product costs me $8 on Aliexpress and I sell it for $40+
Crazy to think that 1 product has generated me over $1,000,000https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤯" title="Explodierender Kopf" aria-label="Emoji: Explodierender Kopf">

If you’re struggling to find a product:
I have found some great products by going on TikTok and searching “TikTokMadeMeBuyIt” (You’ll see products that have gained a lot of attention)
Whichever product you choose, try to sell it for ATLEAST 3x the Aliexpress price or $20 profit

Building the store:
I keep my stores very simple.
- White background
- Black text
- 1 accent color that makes sense for the buttons and announcement bar.
I use the Motion theme. It is a paid theme but if you are just starting, the free Debut theme is fine.

Advertising: I use FB Ads
If just starting:
10 adsets, 1 interest each in an ABO campaign. $10/day each adset
Let those 10 adsets run for 3 days
If after 3 days an adset has no ATC or purchases, kill it. If an adset does have an ATC or purchase, let it run another 3 days
Ex:

Ex:
If after those 3 days an adset doesn’t have a purchase. Kill it. If you have 2-3 adsets that do have a purchase, duplicate them into a CBO at a higher budget ($50-$100)
Let that CBO run for 2-3 days. If profitable increase the campaign budget by 20%https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="♻️" title="Universelles Recycling-Symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Universelles Recycling-Symbol">

Once you gather enough data you can begin testing lookalike audiences (1,000 people)
This is where the real $ is madehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤑" title="Gesicht mit Geld-Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Geld-Mund">
I’m still pretty mind blow that the ad creatives I’m using are images I took on my iPhone lol. Anything is possiblehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙏🏽" title="Gefaltete Hände (mittlerer Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Gefaltete Hände (mittlerer Hautton)">

Analyzing your Facebook Ad metrics:
Don’t overcomplicate it
If your ROAS is above your break even roas, that means you’re profitable. If its under your break even roas, you’re not profitable.
If testing 1 video & 1 photo, see which performed better & move on with the best one.

Order fulfilment
You can use Oberlo when starting
What I found to work best:
Ask your supplier if you can send them an export of your orders
It’s SO easy doing it this way
All you do is export your daily orders and email it to your supplier and they will send you an invoice.

Dealing with PayPal
They will hold your money. This happens to everyone & you learn to deal with it. Add tracking numbers & you’ll get your money faster.
I’ve had stores with PayPal & without PayPal. The ones with it always have a higher conversion rate. Customers trust PayPal.

Debunking the AliExpress long shipping time myth
There are thousands of suppliers on AliExpress that can get your products to your customers with 1 week & ship with USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc
Search for a product, select “Ships From” and choose United States & get quick shipping

So that’s the dropshipping journey and some things I’ve learned along the way in just a few tweets.
I am on pace to do 1M/month during Q4 this year which is WILD to think about.
If I can create an online business and travel the world because of it, so can you.
