SmartMen: I'm honestly too busy to post a tutorial on this... There are lots of posts about that on the internet already... Question and Answer seems less stressful to me. I'd like it to be a question and Answer session, and anyone who has anything to chip in, can freely do so in the comments.. Also, all relevant questions will be duly answered in the comments to my best of knowledge 1 Like |

Yem007: If you wanna do that, I'd advise you source from a different site with faster shipping times...E.g. Homedepot... Or dropship on ebay from Amazon Aliexpress delivery times are too long for successful and sustainable Amazon DS business.. Your seller account will get shut down and banned. |

yizzyweezy: How long did it take you to start making profit from the business?. When did you start?. How do you handle the logistics involved?. How much did it cost you to set up the business?. And your Ads?... How much do you spend on Ads?. How do you price your products?... And what platforms do you source from?. I understand your are a busy person and I sincerely apologize if my questions seem too many. But most people say dropshipping is impossible from Nigeria, so meeting a fairly successful person in the business might be a once in a life time something. Thanks. |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by yizzyweezy: 9:03am On Jun 04, 2019 |
How long did it take you to start making profit from the business?. About 3-4 Weeks When did you start?. 2 years ago How do you handle the logistics involved?. I ship with epacket..My supplier handles all that...I don't have to stock the product. I have a good rapport with my suppliers on Aliexpress and they ship all my orders worldwide, quickly and it gets delivered within 10-15 days How much did it cost you to set up the business?. $700+ And your Ads?... How much do you spend on Ads?. $3-4k Monthly How do you price your products?... And what platforms do you source from?. I source from Aliexpress (sometimes, banggoods for faster shipping and specific products) I price my products such that I make at least $25 profit per sale, due to the rising cost of FB ads, as I average $10- $20 cost per sale 5 Likes 3 Shares |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by RESHARPENED: 9:12am On Jun 04, 2019 |
yizzyweezy: Thank you. It sounds like you are spending a lot on Ads. Did you start spending that much from the beginning?. |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by yizzyweezy: 9:18am On Jun 04, 2019 |
RESHARPENED: Started with $400 on ads, I spent $150 testing 6 different products on Day 1...two were promising, so i doubled down on those with $250 spend (over 3-4 days) and then I made some profit, so I just reinvested the profit till i got to spending $100-120 daily .. |

yizzyweezy: please can u help in opening the FBA account. Nigerians are not accepted anymore can u help please |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by RESHARPENED: 9:33am On Jun 04, 2019 |
yizzyweezy: That was a very smart business strategy. Thanks for that golden nugget. I am going to stick to your thread, hopeful that you'd find time from your schedule for a tutorial. What about the name of your website/shop?... Is it something generic like 'classic jewelry collections' or something centered around a brand like 'Jumia'?. |

Dropshipping biz as I have researched is quite promising. But you have to put alot of time and money to achieve maximum result. I decided to venture into dropshipping this year, although still working on it. I used paystack as the payment platform, will integrate Paypal soon. The site is up already but fb ads and some little issues is limiting me (funds). I need mentorship from the house as regards reliable logistics company(shipping from China to Nigeria). Shubreel(dot)com is the site. I will appreciate review. |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by RESHARPENED: 9:49am On Jun 04, 2019 |
colyx1: Your website looks quite professional. It looks like you spent a lot building it. Your pricing displays in Naira, are you exclusively targeting the Nigerian market?. |

yizzyweezy:Thanks for the detailed reply. I'm a student and I would like venturing into this business. Would like to get some advice from you. Thanks again |

Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by yizzyweezy: 2:28pm On Jun 04, 2019 |
Yem007: Why Amazon btw? Amazon FBA means fulfillment by Amazon...Meaning you'd have to ship your product to Amazon's warehouse and they do the fulfillment.. You, dropshipping unto Amazon isn't Amazon FBA, to do that all you need is an Amazon seller account.. I don't do Amazon dropshipping due to the little margins and stringent policies and the fact that you don't have access to the emails or contacts of people who buy from you. |

RESHARPENED: Yh it's branded, as I plan on turning it into a brand later on with private labeling |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by yizzyweezy: 2:31pm On Jun 04, 2019 |
Marael: My advise will be to save up enough cash and follow some pretty good individuals in the field. The likes of Rito (Flying start online), Franklin Hatchett, Gabriel St-Germain, Chris Waller(King Comm), Nick peroni. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Dropshipping is an awesome way to earn passive income online, but the one that has made me more money is affiliate marketing in Nigeria |
Re: Anyone Dropshipping Successfully From Nigeria? by yizzyweezy: 2:38pm On Jun 04, 2019 |
trevorhorace: On Ebay there are two modes of Payment, you as a seller can offer. 1. PayPal 2. Ebays checkout merchant (Not eligible for everyone) With EBay's checkout merchant, Ebay handles all the payment activities and transfers the money to either your PayPal, Apple Pay, etc account.. Not all accounts are eligible for the EBay's checkout merchant... therefore, PayPal becomes mandatory.. |
