Introduction
I’ve spent some time recently trying to find other sources of income that I haven’t tried yet as in my opinion it’s good to have multiple different sources of income compared to just one as if one goes down you always have money coming in – “don’t put your eggs in one basket”
One that I have wanted to try for a long time was eBay dropshipping, I have an old eBay account in good standing which I turned into a business account.
The tools used in this method come with a trial, letting you test the waters and get familiar with the workflow.

The method
This new dropshipping method utilizes a number of tools that allow you to list a large amount of products found on Aliexpress onto Amazon, meaning you can get a lot of traffic just because you have a lot of products listed, increasing your chances of selling a product, if you listed on Amazon manually it would take a considerably longer amount of time and you wouldn’t have additional functionality which I will talk about.
Your main sales channel will be Amazon US as Shopify doesn’t support any other regions of Amazon at the moment.

So you got a lot of orders and you earned a nice amount, hold on to that money as there is a high chance you will refund a portion of that sum if you ordered from Aliexpress, Gearbest, China altogether.
Excuse the quality, this is a screenshot of my order spreadsheet, this is a total of 64 orders that have been refunded as of today (7 February), totaling a loss of £985
Why?
A few products that have been faulty and I simply refunded the customer to avoid the hassle of having to return the order however the larger portion of the refunds are because of unmet delivery times on Amazon (If you’re n ..read more

Shopify
Shopify has recently released an Amazon integration where you can list and synchronize products from Shopify to Amazon, this is a great feature if you want to run your own website and also integrate it with Amazon for extra income.
Now, I’m assuming we’re all dropshippers so we don’t really want to stock any products and you’re probably wondering how we’re going to source products.
We’ll be focusing on Print On Demand services for our products, all integrated with Shopify, product ..read more

There is a straight forward method to check if someone else is already dropshipping a product, go to the product page and scroll to the very bottom where you will find the transaction history, now scroll through a few pages and if you notice any of these it could mean that someone is dropshipping this product:
Same buyer name on 1 page with different countries
All these orders are made in rapid succession, one after another within 5 minutes
The buyer has a red A4 badge to the left of his name which means he’s either a long time customer or has made a lot of orders to be eligible for thi ..read more

Optimizing search terms for your product listing is very important in order to get the most impressions on Amazon increasing your chances of selling a product.
When I first started out using Amazon I worked for a company selling clothing on Amazon, I was taught by another person working there on how to list products on Amazon, for the search terms I was told to copy keywords from competitor product titles and fill in the rest with relevant keywords to the specific article of clothing – this wasn’t very optimal
the keywords you think the customer will use to search for your products might ..read more

Only 17 days left until the Chinese New Year, this is known as a black hole for dropshippers who use websites like Aliexpress and GearBest or other Chinese suppliers because for a period of time which I will outline below all suppliers and couriers/post is closed and you cannot ship/order anything from China.
The Chinese New Year starts on January 28th and runs for a total duration of around 2-3 weeks, I will be zeroing out my stock quantity for this period however there are ways to still get orders.
If you’re going to be freezing your stock then I will and suggest freezing your stock as ..read more
