**How to Dropship Successfully Without all the Hassles and Beat your Competition**

“Winning” dropshipping products come and go

You’ll see stores launch and die out within months

But how do you escape the churn and burn and roller coaster of highs and lows?

Here’s how to do it
Step 1: Identify products selling well already

Use spy tools or curate your FB/IG feed so that it shows you ads for trending products

The goal is to choose a proven offer and then beat your competition with better marketing

Now let’s discuss the marketing side of things
Step 2: Create barriers to entry

The biggest problem with dropshipping is that everyone is on a level playing field

Since it is easy to start and anyone can do it, it is difficult to differentiate yourself

That’s why you need to create a barrier to entry

How do you do this?
The key is to invest in your brand enough to the point most dropshippers would be discouraged

Most dropshippers can’t play long-term games, so this is the only way to beat your competition

Proper branding is how you do it

Now let’s show you some examples:
Example #1: Strapless Bra

This has been a very popular product

Sneaky Vaunt capitalized on this trend and beefed up branding with influencers and a clean looking website

The brand started with one product in 2017 and has now expanded its product line to multiple SKUs
Example #2: Portable Blender

This was another popular but generic dropshipping item

BlendJet simply branded the product and used an influencer/ambassador program

BlendJet now receives over 1mm visits a month...an 8 figure brand
The gameplan:

Find a popular dropshipping product

Brand it:

Create a clean looking website
Invest in good product photography
Use influencers and brand ambassadors

Do this, and you’ll be in the top 1% of dropshippers by building a massive moat around your business
One caveat:

These brands hold inventory and are not dropshipping

However, you can follow in their footsteps by initially testing with dropshipping

Once you start seeing some success, you can easily start holding inventory

This is how you transition to a full fledged brand

**How to Close High Ticket ($5k+) Sales Calls with a Nearly 100% Success Rate**

A couple years ago, over the span of 2 months, my team and I closed 79 out of 80 prospects for $5k-$10k coaching services.

How did we achieve this astonishing success rate?

Here’s the breakdown:
First of all, let me be clear.

All sales calls were scheduled with existing customers who had already purchased info products ranging from $47 to $497.

This already made them a warm audience that was receptive to high ticket coaching.

And that’s one of the key secrets...
Step 1 : Buyer commits by purchasing a lower ticket offer.

Step 2 is the critical stage:

3 weeks after purchase, we would reach out to check in and see if they needed more help

Many accepted a call immediately (because buying a course simply isn’t enough)

So far so good.

Lead gen and free reports don’t get talked about enough around here.

Personally not a big fan of the financial niche, but it requires skill to break down complex ideas.

Check out this simple lead gen ad on FB here:

facebook.com/ads/library/?i…

Some unorganized thoughts below 👇
1. It’s a simple video made on Fiverr pitching a free tool to help dividend investors

2. The landing page makes a bold promise in the headline. Makes you want to enter your email.

3. The landing page is clean and simple. Nothing crazy. Hyper focused on getting your email.
4. Once the email is collected, you’re provided the free calendar. But wait, there’s more! Who doesn’t want 4 or 5 more checks per month??

5. With the bold promise out of the way, we move into social proof. A few choice quotes.

Two senior bankers I once worked with couldn’t have been more different in their approach to finding new business.

The first banker would not approach a company to pitch to unless:

1) He had prior experience in the industry
2) Had a connection to the board or management
Leading up to a meeting, he would agonize over every word and number in the presentation, leading to late nights for my co-workers and me.

He would memorize the page numbers on which the most important graphs and tables were.

Amazing attention to detail...no doubt.
The other senior banker, however, rarely reviewed a presentation for the company more than once.

It was not uncommon to find glaring mistakes.

BUT

During meetings to pitch new business, he would pass out copies of the presentation to the members of the company

And then...
