Jorge Robinson, for instance, is living proof that hard work and persistence can pay off when you&#x2019;re willing to invest a bit in your dream of creating a profitable shop. After spending three years trying to make money online, Robinson finally reached his breakthrough with the discovery of dropshipping, and with the help of dropshippng tools he has watched his profits skyrocket over the past year. Now, his problems have shifted from struggling for success in the world of ecommerce to figuring out how to fill all his free time.

He was talking about dropshipping ecommerce and how you can make so much money through this pursuit. That definitely piqued my interest, and I joined his Facebook group where he had a couple videos including one about how to set up a Shopify store in under 60 minutes. Before I knew it, I was up and running with my own store on Shopify.

I think that&#x2019;s everybody&#x2019;s biggest month, even if you&#x2019;re just getting started because it&#x2019;s the holiday season.

First of all, upsell. If you&#x2019;re not upselling you&#x2019;re losing out on money. For example, if you&#x2019;re selling a hoodie or a t-shirt, you wanna upsell something small like a phone case or a keychain.

When you&#x2019;re getting 30-50 orders a day, you definitely want to cut down on time spent fulfilling them.

If you&#x2019;re in it for the long run, then there&#x2019;s gonna be a point where eventually you&#x2019;re getting 50 or 100 orders a day, and dropshipping will become something you&#x2019;ll really need &#x2013;not even want&#x2013; to utilize.
