So Guys, I started a new store yesterday after making this post...and started running some ads today and so far made 2 sales..

I'd be documenting the whole process on a new thread...so stay in touch.

If you want me to tag you after opening that new thread, please comment with your usernames below on this thread.

Please tag me. Walkermichael is the moniker..

Please touch on how you created a verified stripe and PayPal account for receiving payments

yizzyweezy:
Good point...But there's lots of money to be made in that niche... I've done consistently well, in that niche

You have the experience already brother! I don't doubt you at all. I know the beauty niche is a really wide one. It never gets saturated

Hey Bro thanks for sharing info about this dropshipping of a thing.

My friend and I have planned to set up a shopify store at the end of this month. We've budgeted to spend around $150 for ads in our first month, and also we are also looking on dropshipping women's accessories.

Please what advice can you give to us?

Thanks a million.

Bro. I'm not saying you're not going to make sales selling women accessories but it's going to be limited. That niche and industry is somehow. There are better niches you can explore and sell products there.. We have the baby niche, kitchen tools niche, outdoor /camping niche, security niche and lots more. Basically you want to sell a product that solves a problem OR offers convenience. People will buy products like this without thinking twice if your creative and store is well set up.

Well, I hardly go to WhatsApp.. And I want everyone to gain some knowledge from this thread... We've hidden information too much... If I do decide to make a guide concerning this, then I'd create a WhatsApp group specifically for showing individuals how to create a PayPal acct and how to withdraw their funds..

In fact, I'm planning on doing a 30-Day challenge where I create a new stripe acct, new PayPal and take a new store to 8-10k in 30 days and will document every single step on here and on YouTube...

Please do this brother... Most of us don't mind following you bumber to bumper. I'm happy to know you have experience in this already. We all are going to ride on your experience. This way, we're not going to be making alot of mistakes in the journey.

yizzyweezy:
$600-800 for a start

Thing is you're gonnna lose $150-200 initially, as you'd be testing the waters and diff products as well as adset to find out what works... It's advised to spend $25-50 testing a product... You may end up testing 4-6 before finding a solid winner...

You'd start making your $150 loss back, when you scale on your already found winner...And can make your loss back in one day, 3 days or lesser depending on how fast you scale..

So don't think the whole $700 is gonna be invested... PayPal may hold your funds for 21 days(as a new seller), stripe will take 7 Business days to send the money to your account, so within that period, you'd have to use your personal cash to fulfill orders while awaiting the payment from your payment providers

Exactly! Thanks for letting everyone on this. Dropshipping isn't a kid business. Bro, how can I reach you? Let's connect. I have some wonderful ideas to share with you.

Ekenetic:
boss am interested in starting but dnt know if 20k could get me started?

Bro this won't get you anywhere oo.. If you have a mentor, you can start with roughly $500. But if you are new and have no mentor, those tops guys usually recommend around $1000- $2000 to get things started since you're going to be testing products to know which works and which doesn't - so obviously you're going to be spending some money upfront for such . Dropshipping is real business!

yizzyweezy:
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.

This is totally correct. These guys you mentioned are doing great in the dropshipping business. I follow them - some other successful dropshippers I follow include Jordan Welch, Gabriel Beltran, arie scherson. Arie and Jordan free course on YouTube can get anyone started in the journey... They also have paid courses too, but I can tell anyone that if you're serious and follow their free content on YouTube.. You're going to get started on something and making sales. If anyone needs their paid courses, I have them. You can reach out

BTW, Op. Thanks for the push again! What has been stopping me is the payment processor. Can I have a guide on how you opened a verified stripe account and also the PayPal account you use.? If I can get these solved, I don't think I have any issues as regards starting the business anymore.

Side note! Dropshipping requires alot of time! At the end, it is very profitable.

yizzyweezy:
Stripe & Lesotho PayPal

I heard stripe doesn't allow Nigerians to register anymore. How true? How did you create your stripe please?

The payment processor is a major issue. Can you assist in explaining how you got them.

iornenge81:

domainflipping:
Use Payoneer

payoneer can now work as a payment processor (just like paystack and stripe)? are you sure about this bro? can i havve more details

For everyone that have gotten a fully verified stripe account for their international dropshipping business, can you please share how you got it?


Nigerians don't have access to create a full verified stripe account anymore. It's sad!

I'm actually looking for a payment processor asides PayPal to receive international payments.

All responses would be appreciated as I'm looking for a solution to this issue.

hoping for responses

Good Morning Beautiful Nairalanders!

I'm looking to start attending networking events, chamber of commerce meetings, BNI groups, Meet ups, Rotary Clubs and the likes in Lagos. Basically, my end game is to connect and network with a lot of business owners across Nigeria.

I'm run a Facebook Ad Agency and i have a lot of knowledge to share with them - which would tremendously increase their business revenue annually.

I'd appreciate everyone's comments!!

Thank you

In no.1 Ranking video on YouTube is technical and requires some amount of money. I have ranked quite a number of videos to #1, including the one that I used as my case study that made me close to $100 and its still making money daily. The only reason why I feel bad some times is that I only ranked one video.. Imagine if I have ranked 5 videos and they were all on the first page... I would have definitely made upto $1k
So this journey I won't repeat that mistake, I'll rank quite a lot of videos.

I don't intend promoting a product for now, I may consider that later. I intend promoting a niche that will make people fill a content locker...

In no.2 : lol that's what makes CPA good and bad. What am doing is blackhat, when they fill the offer, and I get paid.. They don't get anything in return... Me just need the money..lol

I hope I answered you

for those of us who would be interested in invsting some cash in this. Can you please let us know how u rank your videos with money?

Hello house. Please recommend legit real estate firms I can register with in Lagos. I want to market for them.

ddjay:
You see ehn allowing infinix in Nigeria is one of the greatest mistakes on earth that man has ever made since God Almighty created heaven and earth

Bro I tell you. INFINIX PLAYED On THE GREEDY PART OF NIGERIANS. They KNOW we're very greedy.. It's also the same issue of MMM - they capitalized on Nigerians greed.

Great advices so far.

If you don't mind investing in an online business, I'd advice you look into "Shopify dropshipping". It's a great business model but just like every other businesses, you can't jump in.

I've been in mini importation business (buying from China and selling in Nigeria for a while now)and I've been doing well there. but I picked interest in dropshipping and I've been learning everything about the business since June 2018 and I'm still learning. I've enrolled in alot of video courses by these top guns in the business. You can take a minute to research about them and check out their YouTube channels too.

1. Jordan Welch
2. Arie Scherson
3. Gabriel st Germain
4. Gabriel Beltran

I have the courses (proof attached )and I keep on watching their videos to keep learning. The only thing stopping me right now is funds to start! For someone who has an idea on the business model already, start up fee is around 700k-900k. And for someone without any idea (someone who wants to test waters lol) they might need almost double of that (roughly 2m).

I'm available for further discussion bro if this interests you - (all discuss can be done on this same thread. Feel free to throw questions at me too) - I have the idea, and you have the funds - so we could partner.

Selling is the real goldmine!

Cheers!

I have 90k but I don't know where to put it. Though I have 3 options, but I can't choose the best out of it.
1- Getting loan of 60k to buy a land of 150k in the outskirts of my city.
2-Joining a computer training school to obtain certificate on a certain skill (Web development).
3- Joining a language academy to earn certificate on English proficiency ( I studied Hausa language in my degree, and I want to become a professional translator).

bro the best investment ever is investing in one's self. I'd really advice that you go for the web development skill. Pick a subniche under the web development niche and learn everything on it. Udemy, Coursera and Youtube should come in handy here too. I wish you all the best!

What kind of title is this?

"Drawing & Painting Of An 8-Year-Old Boy"

rentAcock:
A nice gesture, but the fact that you started the thread and also made sure you were the first to comment tells me that your heart is dark. Only a sadist would do a thing like that.

Is everything okay at home bro?
