It's over. Don't bother investing your time or money.

Dropshipping is more challenging than it seems, especially with a) handling returns and b) waiting for payouts from your payment gateway. I suggest visiting our journey section and exploring some older, extensive threads for alternative methods. Best of luck!

You might want to consider trying Instagram or TikTok. It's become much more difficult to get started with Facebook and Google these days.

Remember, you'll need to budget for ads (Facebook or Google, which can be costly). You'll also need to create a website, target a niche market, analyze the competition (using paid tools), and find reliable suppliers. Be prepared to handle customer complaints and returns, as well as long shipping times (8-20 days if you use platforms like AliExpress, unless you're selling digital products). While many try and fail, there are those who make a lot of money from it. The key is thorough research and creativity—don’t start spending until you've done your homework.

You can learn all of this from numerous resources on YouTube.

Exercise caution with this. Many individuals lose money on ads and struggle to break even.

Don't pay too much attention to the YouTube gurus.

Avoid starting it! It’s not a sustainable approach.

Dropshipping isn’t as straightforward these days. Can you share what you know about it? If you’re not familiar with the details, it’s best to start by watching some YouTube videos.
