If you have heard about dropshipping business before but, you probably dont know what it is all about, then this article will be of very important help to you.

What is dropshipping?

The best scenario that can be used to explain dropshipping to a layman is this: a situation where you tell someone, that you have a very useful product for him that will help him solve a problem.

He desires the product so badly, and then he place order for the product.

Note: the product is not yet with you physically.

After he pays for the product, you place order for the product, and it is delivered to the person.


Dropshiping is a very lucrative business where you dont have to worry about the huge cost of buying products first. Instead you, buy the product from aliexpress when someone buys the product at a higher proce on your dropshipping store.

And Yes Nigerians are making a killing with dropshipping and I am one of them.

Here are 5 tips to start a successful dropshiping business

1. When dropshipping, basically, you should have the US as your target country, that is the major country you will be selling to.

2. Choose alieaxpress as your source of products.

3. Look for a cheap hot dropshipping product that is currently selling very well.

4. Promote that particular product with facebook Ads, make sure to promote to couuntries like U.S.A , Australia and Canada

5. Fullfil orders to people that ordered it.

Side note: Customers will pay first for the product before you actually buy the product.

Lets assume you are selling a product that is 2 dollars on aliexpress, With facebook ads targeting U.S , you sell each for 10 usd . Now when you get a successful payment, you take out 2 dollars from the ten dollars and place order for the product, filling in the buyers address, then the product will be shipped through "epacket" to the buyer.

Epacket is a method of fast shipping on all qualified orders.


All of this can be done with the click of a button.
