Key Takeaways:
★ Treat it Like a Real Business: The biggest mistake is treating dropshipping like a side hustle. To succeed, you must treat it like a real business, commit to learning, and put in the necessary effort.
★ Avoid the Quick Win Trap: Expecting fast results leads to frustration. Building a business takes time, consistency, and learning from setbacks.
★ Focus on High-Ticket Products: Low-ticket dropshipping can quickly lead to burnout due to low margins and high order volume. High-ticket products offer better profitability and reduce stress.
★ Don’t Rush the Setup: Take the time to properly validate your niche and choose reliable suppliers to avoid costly mistakes in the future.
★ Know Your Numbers: Understand your breakeven ROAS and track your ad spend and profit margins closely. Without this, scaling can lead to cash flow issues and mismanaged growth.
