I Earned $3000 in 3 Months by Thinking Outside the Box
PLEASE, STOP using terribly saturated business models.
Its 2019, and at the time everyone and their dog has a dropshipping business. Being an ignorant 15yr old, I figured I wanted my share of the pie too.
See I have never been one for taking the beaten path; I’m very much my own soul. I knew almost right away that if I could do something different, I could stand out.
I noticed every YouTube video I had been learning from was recommending selling one product in a hyper saturated niche.
I decided to sell many products in a seriously under served niche; Gaming. I was selling basic keyboard and mouse accessories, nothing fancy.
My marketing was where things get more interesting;
All sorts of small gaming clans and teams exist in most every competitive game. I would offer these teams a cut of any sales they brought in, and it turned out to be a simple yet profitable venture.
The lesson being; By combining two business models (affiliate marketing and dropshipping), + thinking outside of the box, I was able to stand out . I got over 1000 affiliates, and before selling the business we did over $3k in revenue.
