4 STEPS TO YOUR FIRST 100K $10,000+ Month DROPSHIPPING BLUEPRINT CAM MORALES INTRODUCTION Hi there! I’m Cam, founder of Brandafy.com and certified Shopify Commerce Coach. Me and my team have helped build hundreds of dropshipping stores. In this ebook, I’ll be going over the exact system you need to start an online business to gain true financial independence. Small Warning!: This will require some work and learning on your part. Maybe you're new to dropshipping and e-commerce, or perhaps you have experience but failed previously. Many people think it's luck or by chance, but do you really think successful business owners continue to get lucky more than once? The truth is, almost every online store owner follows the same system to generate its sales and profit. There's a reason why the same business owners continue to create winning stores over and over again. There are only two ways for you to become successful online. Do all the work yourself and learn everything without help. Learn from others' mistakes and follow proven systems. LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE There's no such thing as getting repeatedly lucky in business. Success comes from following a proven system and being consistent with your business. For example, I was not born into a rich family or blessed with wealth to start a business. Early on, one of the skills that I knew would benefit me was LEARNING. In any job or field that I've ever worked in. I always tried to learn as much as possible at any given moment. This brings me to the reason I wrote this guide. Too many gurus and fake experts online sell their programs and courses for $2997, promising you a get-rich-quick scheme or an overnight success. Some end up buying these programs, and almost everyone ends up failing. These programs always promote some secret method or secret tricks that you need to follow to create success. But the truth is, there is no luck or secret. Every successful online store is following three basic steps. Products that solve a problem or provide value Find the right people to sell your product to. Upsell More Products LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE There are no other Secrets or tricks involved in building a successful online store. The people who succeed are those who are willing to put in the work and time to learn how to master these three skills. the ones who don't simply give up or blame it on bad luck. Just think about it, a web developer isn’t born an expert. Continuously learning and practicing web development skills allow some to become the top web developers in the world. Do you think they would be able to do this without learning? OF COURSE NOT! Inside this ebook, you’re going to learn the same techniques that I've used to build six and seven-figure stores. 1. You'll learn how to find the right niche for your online store. 2. You’ll learn the same product research system that I use to find products in demand. 3. You'll learn how to advertise your products to target the right customers in your niche. 4. You'll learn how to upsell and increase your profit when selling to your customer. You'll also learn other tips and specific tools that I use to scale online stores to over 6 figures consistently. For those of you who don't know what dropshipping is, I'll quickly give a short intro into how dropshipping works. If you already know what dropshipping is, then go ahead and skip this next section. LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE How To Sell Online With Dropshipping Dropshipping is essentially selling products without having to own any actual inventory. The way it works is quite simple. 1. A customer places an order on your store or website. 2. You then send the order to the supplier. 3. The supplier fulfills the order and sends it directly to the customer on your behalf. Most dropshipping stores use Shopify, which is an ecommerce platform that easily allows you to integrate suppliers and products with a few clicks. What's so great about dropshipping, is that you can change the products you're selling at any time without investing in any inventory. There's almost no cost to changing your brand or business at any time. Now that we have this covered, let's cover how we can actually build a successful dropshipping store. Pick The Right Niche For Your Store Now you might be asking yourself: do I start a niche store or a general store? Or do I start a one-product store? I'll cut to the short answer, a niche store. Now that doesn't mean just a single product or product category. You can have more than one product in your store but make your focus within one niche. Some say to follow your passions and interests to sort out the best item to sell, while others say you should sell what people want or need and is currently profitable. I recommend a mix of both. For example, if you practice meditation and are also passionate about spirituality or astrology. You can combine these two categories into one store. This allows you to build a brand around both since they can serve one type of buyer. By focusing on just one niche, your brand will stick out, and anyone who visits your store will be easier to upsell more products. Now it's up to you to decide whether you want to start a niche or general store, but I recommend just sticking to one niche. Below is a great example of a niche store that offers a variety of products. LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE PRODUCT RESEARCH TO FIND YOUR WINNING PRODUCTS Now when it comes to finding winning products for your store. You want to ask yourself a few questions before you add the products. Does this product solve a problem or provide any actual value? Is this product appealing to a large following or a niche audience? Is this product unique or different, or can I improve this product any better? Are there products that compliment this product or fit in the same category? Before you start selling any single product, it's always a good idea to purchase one of the products or at least a sample. Not all products are made the same, so you want to make sure whatever you're selling to your customer is a quality item. For example, below is a product that I scaled to over 1.3 million dollars, including upsells. In the last two years alone, online streaming and podcasting have become mainstream. Also, many workers and employees are now working from home. This product solves a problem by dampening noise when using a microphone or headset. We made sure that the audience was also large enough when selling this product. You can only scale as much as your audience size is. So you want to make sure whatever product you are selling has a large audience. Now, if you're selling to a smaller audience, you're going to want to make sure you have a more expensive product to make a sizeable prof LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE What if you could skip all the guesswork and upfront effort of researching and building a successful dropshipping store?

LAUNCH YOUR STORE TODAY LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE Don't forget that this isn't a get-rich-quick scheme. If you're going to be selling a product long-term, try to have some interest in it. If you're going to own a business or sell a product, you want something you believe will provide value and that you have some knowledge or interest in.

If you plan to sell one product to one person one time, then your profit will be nonexistent. The answer to making six and sevenfigure profits is upselling. When somebody visits your store, it's because your store is positioned a certain way and is attracting a specific audience or niche group. This allows you to sell them more than one product in that niche. The key to maximizing your profit is to provide more options or products that someone with a particular interest might purchase. A good example is with the arm stand above. The same person who bought the microphone Shield to reduce noise might also want to purchase the arm stand to change the microphone's position. Aside from providing upsells on your website, you want to make sure to upsell through emails. With automated email sequences, you can target customers who abandon their checkouts or forget to make a purchase. When upselling, you also want to provide post-purchase upsells and recommendations, or target previous customers with promotions or other products. LAUNCH YOUR OWN STORE Setting up and automating upsell emails and retargeting emails on Shopify can be done easily with certain apps.

SCALE YOUR STORE WITH FREE AND PAID TRAFFIC Now comes the part where we have to get customers to our store. Unfortunately, they don't just wander and walk right into your online store. And simply spamming your link in social media posts or groups will not be a good idea for your business. Facebook Ads now Meta Ads The fastest way to get customers to your store is with paid traffic, specifically Facebook ads. This is the tried-and-true method to start getting sales for your store. Facebook ads or now Meta uses an extremely smart algorithm. This enables you to target the right customer at the right time to spend money more efficiently to acquire customers. When you set up your dropshipping store, you add your pixel code which gathers data from visitors to your Facebook ad account.

Everyone now uses either google or youtube ( owned by Google) to search for products or questions about products before purchasing. One of the easiest ways to get free traffic is by adding specific keywords in your website that people search when looking for a product. These keywords or keyword phrases can also be used to rank on image searches. This can help increase your store traffic with social media networks like Pinterest. For example, Pinterest images that have keywords will show up on google search. So if your customer base uses Pinterest or searches for a specific keyword phrase, your product can show up on google and Pinterest. Now, this method does take time to work. Because certain words are very competitive, it might take weeks or months for specific keywords to show up for your website or store on google. TikTok Ads Another great way to send traffic to your store is using TikTok ads. Since this ad platform allows dropshippers to target their audience based on behavior (interest expressed through posts) rather than demographics like age or gender, they get more bang for their buck when it comes to dropshipping sales with TikTok ads! Be sure to read our TikTok Ads Dropshipping guide to learn more about running TikTok ads.
