Week 02: Dropshipping Journey – Challenges

Week 2 has been a challenge for me as I am having intermittent slow internet connection all throughout the week but nevertheless I was able to publish an additional 30 items on my product line. I really believe that I could have already finished publishing all my products if not for this shitty internet connection but I really can’t do anything about it at the moment so I have to deal with it.

With regards to the Chinese holiday, I believe the Chinese New Year has already officially ended and I think most of the vendors in Aliexpress are already back to business. I am planning to start my promotion maybe next week as I will try to add a few more products, plus will also create my product catalog feed that I will use in my Dynamic Product Ads in my Facebook promotion.

With regards to the product that I will promote, I already have something in mind and will try to test it next week. This is a product that I actually bought in Aliexpress a few months ago and I believe this product would click as I saw a viral video on my facebook newsfeed before featuring this product. Also, regarding this product, I actually made my own video with this one and I will use the video for my promotion. I am currently downloading Camtasia and use the 30-day trial as I will use it to edit the video and add some effects to make it more engaging and hoping that the video will go viral as well.

Also with regards to my promotion, I will be doing some research this coming week and use Facebook Audience Insights to create the initial audience where I will show my promotions to. There are a lot of things that I am planning to do this week and I really hope my internet connection improves so as not to hamper my productivity

Anyway, to sum it all up, below are the things that I will do for the week (hopefully) related to my ecommerce store and this journey

• Add more products to my store with the Alidropship plugin
• Create the Product Catalog Feed to be used in Dynamic Product Ads in Facebook
• Modify the video of the product to promote and add some effects to make it more engaging
• Create an audience to target for my first promotion using Facebook Audience Insight

So I guess that’s all for now as I still have a lot of things to do. Aside from this journey, I will also do some product reviews and to add more, I am also planning to do a case study on how to rank on 1^st page of google and will try to implement a method that I learned before and see if it will still work, I will also make a post about this so stay tuned and see you again next week.
