My aim is to be straightforward and not to leave anything out. Here’s what you should do if you're starting from scratch with zero dollars. Let's dive in!

Introduction

If you're considering getting a mentor to guide you through this journey, my brother and I offer specialized mentorship programs focused on Facebook and TikTok. You can contact us through Facebook; the link is on our YouTube channel. Before reaching out, you should have between $ 5,000 to $ 7,000 and, most importantly, the time to commit. Money and time are both critical – one without the other and this won’t work.

Starting Drop Shipping:

With No Money

If I were to start drop shipping with no money, here’s the approach I'd take:

  1. Learning Product Research and Marketing:

    • Focus on learning product research and marketing, which are the two key aspects of drop shipping.
    • Spend a significant amount of time acquiring knowledge and experience in these areas.
  2. Spending Time Wisely:

    • Devote substantial time each day to product research (around 5 to 10 hours).
    • Split your day between learning marketing and doing product research.
  3. Using Resources:

    • Utilize websites like Fiverr to get a professional, cost-effective drop shipping website built.
    • Take advantage of free Shopify trials to set up your store.

Organic Marketing Strategy

Since you won’t be running paid ads, focus on organic marketing using three key platforms:

  1. YouTube Shorts
  2. TikTok Videos
  3. Instagram Reels

Analyzing Viral Content

  • Monitor Patterns:

    • Spend a few months observing what types of products go viral on these platforms.
    • Take note of common patterns among different niches and where they perform best.
  • Content Creation:

    • Start by making content in niches that you’ve identified as having viral potential.
    • Recreate user-generated content or use videos available on Amazon, from AliExpress suppliers, or across the internet.

Leveraging Your Findings

  • If you find products or niches that work well on two platforms but not the third, focus your efforts on that gap.
  • Consider creating niche-specific stores, such as one focused on baby products or clothing.

Efficient Content Production

Sourcing and Creating Videos

  1. Amazon User Videos:
    • Check the review section for user-submitted videos and repurpose them.
  2. AliExpress Supplier Videos:
    • Contact suppliers for video content.
  3. Recreate Content:
    • Gather videos from various sources and use tools like CapCut to mix and recreate them.

Scaling Your Efforts

  • Once a product shows potential, buy it and create your own content.
  • This ensures unique, engaging material that can drive sales.

Reality Check

I want to be honest – starting drop shipping with no money is undeniably challenging and time-consuming. The organic route demands intense effort and constant adaptation. While it’s possible, it's often more efficient to start with some capital. If I were to start again with no money, I'd focus on saving funds first to invest in mentorship and run paid ads, which significantly scale up operations.
