Instagram Story Ads
Another option to advertise on Instagram is by having Instagram Story ads.

You can also do this with Instagram influencers. They will post your story video (or image) as their story!

If they have more then 10.000 followers on their Instagram page, then you can use the swipe up function from Instagram in your story.

Creating your own Instagram business page

Of course, before you start contacting Instagram influencers or start boosting posts, you need to have an Instagram account for your dropshipping store!

I did write a full guide on how to set up your dropshipping Instagram account and how to grow it from scratch. You can read it here if you’re interested in having your own Instagram business page.

Advertising your dropshipping store. If you see that, then you’re probably thinking about Facebook Ads, but what if I told you that there is so much more out there to advertise with? I will give you a short answer below, to then show 10 possible ways for you to advertise your dropshipping store.

There are so many more ways to advertise your dropshipping store, then just using Facebook. Think about using Instagram, Pinterest, Snapchat and even Twitter. Just make sure that your target audience is online on these platforms before you start advertising!

1. Instagram advertising

Let’s kick this list of with advertising with Instagram!

Although Instagram is from Facebook, it’s still worth looking at if you want something else then advertising on Facebook.

Instagram advertising through Facebook

The first way you can advertise on Instagram is through Facebook. Yes, I said no Facebook, but officially it’s advertising on Instagram so I had to put it on this list.

It’s basically the same way as you would advertise with Facebook Ads, but then you select Instagram Feed instead of Facebook Feed.

Boosted Instagram post
A boosted Instagram post is basically a normal post that you post yourself on your Instagram account. To then later “boost” it.


It’s slightly more limited, then advertising through Facebook, but it’s also more simplified.

Also, it’s ideal for boosting the momentum of organic posts.

If you want to advertise with Instagram, but don’t know if you should boost your post or advertise through Facebook, then I suggest advertising through Facebook.

You will have way more options plus this way you can use it together with your Facebook Ads (if you got these).

Instagram influencer shoutouts
If you don’t know what Instagram influencers are, then I suggest reading this article here or watching this YouTube video from Oberlo below:


Basically, you pay a person to post your post on their Instagram page for some time (most common is 24 hours).

After that time passed the influencer will remove your post from their page, but you could try to make a deal that he or she will keep it on their page if that’s something you would like.

The price of an influencer shoutout will depend on how big their page is (how many followers) and how good their engagement rate is. If you’re interested in learning more about how to find Instagram influencers, then I suggest reading this article here.

That article contains 5 tips on how to find Instagram influencers for your dropshipping store, and I will go over what kind of influencers are worth your money. (Hint? Not the fake ones!)

5. Soap Pump

Why did I pick this product for this list?

This is a fun little kitchen gadget and has both a “Wow” factor (I personally never saw this before) and a problem-solving factor.
It helps you pick the right amount of soap for doing the dishes. No mess or dripping!
This could be a great product for kitchen gadgets lovers!

4. Safety Flashlights

Why did I pick this product for this list?

I’m not 100% sure yet who I would target with this, but it’s definitely a nice gadget for people that own a car. It could help them stay safe if they are in an accident at night.

3. Electric Clothes Drying Rack

Why did I pick this product for this list?

This is more a gadget than a problem solver, but it could still work. Did you ever saw an electric clothing drying rack before? I don’t think so.

2. Electric Vegetables and Fruit Peeler

Why did I pick this product for this list?

This product saves time. You don’t have to peel the vegetables and fruit yourself anymore.
Also, this product could solve a problem for people with arthritis or for people that can’t use of both their hands fully.
Do keep in mind that it’s an electronic product.

1. Soft Toilet Cover

Why did I pick this product for this list?

This product definitely has a “Wow” factor. I was scrolling through Sell The Trend, and this product directly took my eyes with its uniqueness.
I never saw anything like this product before.

Wondering what products to sell on your dropshipping store? Let me tell you; you’re not alone! That’s why I made this list of 16 winning dropshipping product examples that are looking promising in 2020. You can use this list for inspiration on what to sell next.

Why Is Looking at Ecommerce Product Examples Important?

One word? Inspiration!

This is great if you’re just starting, and you have no idea what to sell on your ecommerce store.

You can get a lot of inspiration if you look at what other ecommerce stores are selling.

But don’t forget that when a lot of stores are selling the same product that the competition is higher!

This will make it harder to sell these products if you don’t try to be unique.

The plus side of seeing a lot of stores selling the same product is that you can get a lot of inspiration on how to advertise the product, what price to sell it, and so on.

And there must be a reason why a lot of stores are selling the same product.

Maybe it’s profitable for them, right?

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many stores selling it!

The List of 16 eccommerce Product Examples
So, are you ready for some ecommerce product examples?

Below you will find a whole list of examples!

I will separate the list into two parts.

One part will contain products that are already sold in a lot of ecommerce stores.

These are products that are getting a lot of sales, but that also means that you will have a lot of competition. Which, of course, you can beat if you’re unique.

The other part of the list will contain products that are not selling in a lot of stores yet.

These are products that I think are looking great and are looking like a winning product. (Click here to learn what factors a winning dropshipping product has)

In Today's class we are going to be looking at con and pro in dropshipping also we are going to learn effectively how we can find a hot in-demand product to sell.

I will be teaching three strategies you can use to find hot in-demand products to sell.

One of the thing that makes people fail and have seen people struggle within eCommerce is essentially niche and product research.

You see, without understanding these simple skills, you will fail and lose money, testing different product.

Repeatedly one thing I would like to approach before diving into this strategy is that most people think when they find a product that went viral, they consider that product is oversaturated.

Before we continue I will also want to address the con and pro of dropshipping.

What are the Pros and Cons of Dropshipping?

Just like any other business there pros and cons, likewise in dropshipping business, however, if you approach it the right way, and use the proven strategies


Pro #1: The Risks Are Much Lower
The beauty of dropshipping is that there is practically no risk. Because you are investing so little money upfront, there is very little to lose in dropshipping.

Pro #2: Dropshipping Is Location Independent
A dropshipping business can be run from anywhere. You don't need an office or a warehouse or any employees at all.

You can sell to anywhere in the world from your house in Nigeria just with your computer and the internet.

Con #1: Dropshipping Can Be A Logistical Nightmare

You might think that since your suppliers are doing all the work that you can sit back and relax. Unfortunately, you have to deal with your customer base to avoid losing your customers or attracting chargebacks.

Con #2: Legal liability issues

Although this isn't a common problem for dropshippers, it's worth mentioning. Some suppliers aren't as legitimate as they claim, and for new people who are just getting started might miss the trick to spot a good one.

Opening Your Stripe Account to Process Payments As A Non-US Resident
Once your business LLC is registered, your business will equally receive a tax ID. Which is part of what we need to create your Stripe account.

To create your Stripe account, simply head over to Stripe .com and create your account. Enter your email address and full name.

After the registration, you’ll need to activate it by filling an account application. In the application, you’ll need to enter your US company details, EIN, your personal details and a digital copy of your government-issued ID.

Step 8. Inc Protection Advisor
The Inc protection advisor and the remaining steps are Upsells. They are not necessarily what you need to have to have your stripe set up.

The remaining steps include:

Lawsuit Protection – $99 (this is a form of protections that exclude you from your business when your business gets sued.

I paid for this, but you don’t have to if you don’t have the funds now. Plus, you can always pay for it later with Inc Authority).

Express Delivery – $49 (if you want the entire process done within two days you can pay for express delivery.

But normally, your business should be ready within five days using Inc Authority).

Domain Name – $29.95 (this allows Inc Authority to secure your proposed business domain name for you.

This is totally not necessary since you can get it for less than $10 with NameCheap).

Business License Package – $99 (This also works in form of lawsuit protection. But as I said, you don’t need all this for now, and you can always get them in the nearest future if you want).

Finally, you’ll need to make payment to secure your LLC business registration. The cost of what you’re paying for should be:

1. EIN/Tax ID – $49
2. Operating Agreement – $89
3. Kentucky State Filling fee – $40
== $179

ALSO READ: My lecture on How to grow your business from zero to selling thousands per month.

Step 7. Custom Operating Agreement
At this step, you need to include the custom operating agreement because it’s very important. It actually proof your ownership of the business.

And at the same time represent the state law backing your business

Also Read: My lecture on How to grow your business from zero to selling thousands per month.

Step 6: Getting Your Tax ID (EIN)
Inc Authority will be getting your EIN or Tax ID for you at just $49. Which is relatively cheap compared to other services out there.

Finally, “tick the Minimize business and taxes” and proceed to save and continue.

Step 5: Your Business Address
At this stage, you need a physical US address where your document can be sent to. In my case, I gave them a call and I told them to send it directly to my email address.

But that doesn’t mean you don’t need the US address, you do! In other to set this up there are various services you can use like:

1. physicaladdress.com
2. virtualpostmail.com
3. shipito.com
You can get started for free using shipito.com, you just need to create an account and you’ll be giving address automatically. A physical address!

Next, enter your business address and click on Save and Continue.

To get yourself a free US number that works fine, you can download the TextPlus App on Google play store.

The App is free and it’s equally what I use.

Step 4. Enter Your Business Information
As I said earlier, you’ll need to pick a name for your business and a search will be carried out on it to check if it’s still available.

If it’s available, your business name will be created immediately upon the state approval. However, in the case whereby your proposed business name is not available, you’ll need to adjust the name or find another one.

But it’s not going to cost you any additional fee!

What you need to do here is simply enter your proposed business name, a good example is Dropshipping Technology and also write a short description of the business.

After that, click on “Save and Continue”

Step 3. Business Owner Details
The next step is about the business owner. At this stage, you’ll need to enter your First and Last name, your email address and as well as your US phone number.

Also, you need to click the “Terms and Condition” box to continue to the next step

The next page is your business entity type and the state you want to form the LLC.

Step 2. Choose Your Business Entity and State
Simply choose LLC (Limited Liability Company) from the drop-down menu and choose your state. You can go with Kentucky because of the low cost and the cheap annual tax fee.

Now let’s proceed to form your LLC at Inc Authority:
Setting up your LLC with Inc Authority is really straight forward, I’ve broken it down into the step by step guide below. All you need do is just follow the steps and your LCC and Tax ID will be set up.

Step 1. Head Over to Inc Authority
First thing first, you need to head over to IncAuthority.com to get started. Upon getting to the web page click on the “START NOW FOR FREE” button…

Setting Up an LLC for Your Business in The US

One of the perks of having your business set up in the US isn’t limited to Stripe usage. You can have several similar businesses under the registered business.

And also important, is the fact that you don’t have to have a Social Security Number (SNN) to have your business set up in the US.

You just need to choose a NAME for your business and decide on the state you want it to be registered in the US.

However, you do need to be careful as to which state you decide to set up your business entity. This is because some states charge high state filling (Business Registration) and as well as annual business tax.

But I do find;

Colorado
and Kentucky…
to be quite affordable.

Colorado charges $10 annual Tax fee and $50 state filling while Kentucky charges $40 state filling and $15 annual Tax fee.

At least as at the time of writing this article. You could as well do further research on that if you want.

The state annual tax is a tax you pay on your business at the end of every year. So they vary based on the state you choose to set up your business.

States like California and Hawaii should definitely be out of your pick because they are freaking high on tax.

But not to worry, the sole purposing of this post is to show you how to get it done as easy as possible and at the cheapest fee.

I’m equally not based in the US but I have my business set up in the US so I can equally use Stripe to process payments as a non US resident.

I was able to do this using IncAuthority.com and Kentucky as my business state because it’s relatively cheap.

The good news is I’ve been able to partner with them because I know many people will be needing this service and I want them to have it at the best place.

Plus, there are various service out there charging as high as $1000 for this same purpose. But at the end of this post I’ll show you how you can get it done for less than $200.

Coming from someone who also is a non-resident of the US I know how beneficial it can be for your online business.

Most especially my blog readers!

How to Set Up Stripe Account for Non-US Resident or Non Supported Countries

For you to set up a Stripe account legally without any future issue as a non US resident you’ll need the following:

1. US Business Formation (LLC)
2. EIN (Employer Identification Number) or Tax ID
3. US Physical Address
4. A US Phone Number
5. Finally, US Bank Account

Okay. Before you get overwhelmed, everything can be set up within a few days and equally at a relatively low price.

The most important of all is creating a Limited Liability Company (LLC) in the US in other for you to get your Tax ID (EIN).

Once you’ve gotten your EIN or Tax ID, you can then proceed to create your Stripe account.

Below is a message from Stripe confirming the validity of setting up a stripe account as a non US resident.

If you’re a non-US citizen and have a US based business with an EIN you would be able to open a Stripe account. When we request the last four digits of your SSN, you can just enter ‘0000’ please ensure that you enter a valid tax ID (EIN) that has been provided for your business. We will then reach out at a later stage and request either a passport or government issued ID to verify your identity.

If you don’t have a SSN/ITIN, you are only able to register as an LLC Corporation, Non-Profit or Partnership. If you sign up as a sole Prop/Individual, we require a valid SSN/ITIN even if you have a valid EIN

So basically, as a non-resident you can create an account with Stripe so far you have a business entity in the US and a valid EIN number.

Luckily for you, you don’t have to pay for the business formation, however, you do need to pay for state filing and tax ID.

How to Open and Use Stripe to Process Payments As A Non US Resident

I’ll assume you offer services online or have an e-commerce/dropshipping store or you simply need Stripe to receive payment on your business website.

Whichever it may be, Stripe is still by far the #1 payment processor you can use to process payments on your website across the Globe.

Using stripe allows you to easily accept payment on your website via credit card without transferring your customers to another website.

The payment processor is embedded on your website which makes it invariably quick, easy and flexible for your customers to make payments.

It doesn’t matter what country your customer is paying from, your price in dollars is charged on your customer’s credit card and remitted to your stripe account immediately.

We all know how important it is to receive your hard-earned profits after you must have invested your time and funds in the business.

And using Stripe makes this easier and reliable! Even better than PayPal.

However, the bad news we already know is that Stripe is only available for residents in the US and a number of other countries.

But, what if your country is outside Stripe availability by default, is all hope gone? Nah!

This now brings us to the good news that you can still use Stripe legally even if your country is not part of the supported country.

How can you achieve this?

All you need to do is register a business in the US and use this information to set up your Stripe account legally.

And this is exactly what I’ll be doing justice to in a bit…

Stripe – This is the most widely used payment gateway in the world even better than PayPal. Their seamless integration makes it easy to receive payment on your website in any part of the world.

By default, it doesn’t work in Nigeria. And to legally use it, you’ll need to register your business in the US. I’ve written a complete guide on how to register your business to use Stripe.

PayPal – this platform is one of the most widely accepted payment gateways but unfortunately it’s not visible in Nigeria. However, there has been a way around that. Which I’m sure few people are currently aware of.

If you’re not, I have a PayPal report on how to set up your PayPal account that receives payment in Nigeria. Although it’s going to cost you a fee, a tiny fee in that matter… You can check the price here!

Alternatively, you can use…
Paystack – this platform accepts payment by default only in Nigeria. But if you want to receive payment internationally, you need to create an account with them and have your business registered with CAC and also have a corporate bank account in your business name.

After this, you can then send them a request for receiving international payment. If everything goes well, you can start receiving payments within 24 hours.
