Everything store Vs. Niche Specific Store. Which is better?

Posted on March 30, 2017 by admin

Here’s a great question from Nasim, I wanted to share it alongside my response. “This course is really inspiring me to open my own store. Can you give me one more suggestion? From your experience which one do you think is better a specific product type or mixed product stores? ”
Example of a great everything store is chattuz.com

Example of a great niche specific store is http://www.deathwishcoffee.com/

There is no specific answer to this. You know Amazon itself is an “everything store,” and they are very successful. At the same time, a lot of Shopify stores are “one product only” or “one niche only.” If you target specific niche (like pugs lovers, pug owners for example), then your store should have only products for pugs because if they see a product for bulldogs instead, they will be frustrated and leave). I hope it helps, but there is no RIGHT or WRONG way here.

Here is my suggestion:

1. If you go with “everything store” then research top competitor everything stores and make sure to sell similar products at similar prices. This will reduce the chance of failure.

2. If you go specific niche, again use competitor spy tools and find out best-selling products in competitor stores and duplicate them.

Head to our website now and check out the competitor spy tools and start using information from your competitors to upgrade your business. Check it out here:

Choosing between the two can be quite confusing, but you have to find what works for you and then you’ve got to stick with it. Hope this helps out.

Keep selling, keep winning!

See you next time.

I think we replied that before.. Please use SEARCH first! Use the dropshipper's return policy.? You can use mail forwarding (virtual office) address for package forwarding..

I used to do a hybrid of both physically stocked inventory and drop shipped products. I usually dropship from warehouses based in the US so it's faster.. and international ones from CHINA.. My advice, start by dropshipping first to validate products amd test and build momentum.. once you see it sells well get fulfilling inventory on the products that sell the most!

Try Beeketing, SumoMe, MailChimp, OptinMonster, Klaviyo, Wheelio, Mailmunch, Pixel pop, coupon pop!

Try to build your list! For example run Facebook ad campaigns for newsletter sign ups , offer free desktop and mobile wallpaper, or how-to report. People have to put in their email, then we have a trigger set up on MailChimp to email all new subscribers the link for the wallpaper or report, plus we insert suggested products in the email. We get 300-400 sign ups a day at like 0.1 an email. Works like charm!

Use Privvy for the popup, and the email coupon code autogenerated from Mailchimp. It's a nice combo.

Does dropshipping work? i worry about slow delivery times? who will wait 2-4weeks??

Dont be discarded about drop shipping there are lots of people have succeeded in drop shipping, my advice drop ship is good when you do it internationally. I have no problems with international customers.

You can reduce the delivery time.. Try DHL, i pass the cost to the consumer, i find consumer will pay the xtra amount to get the instant gratification they seek in online shopping.. Or find domestic suppliers..
It is Ok to use AlieExpress - just make sure that your customers know about the delivery times and the reason is because all products are made to order and direct from the factory.
Then scale up and move slowly to FBA once you know what sells best for your store and fullfill via amazon prime!

How to do SPLIT TESTS??? i mean for amazon listing

50.0000

Emma says at 17:37 et

Try cashcowpro split test tools for A/B split tests. also Greg from jungle scout has similar tools i think. Split test only makes sense if you sell A LOT of units per day, else it's irrelevant, as data sample is too small.

Olga says at 23:29 et

Also Splitly just for price testing but testing cover photos is a good idea too.

I am ordering samples for the first time. How do I get this done in AliExpress and get the offered sample pricing and shipping?

little_tiger says at 23:16 et

Jeff, have you watched the videos? The price is decided by your supplier. It can go as high as $150 per sample. Usually it's $30-60 WITH delivery!

Lane says at 23:17 et

little_tiger means FBA model and price for sample if you go wholesale from Alibaba... Of course if you do dropshipping on Aliexpress, you just get 1 copy for yourself super cheap to test the quality

Hai, I am obsessed with online business. I have bought some e-commerce affiliate software, that is completed with with Youtube video review for every product I added. The e-commerce is linking to social media. It covered three affiliate : Amazon, Ebay, and Ali express. Organic traffic is about 8,000 visitors in 3 months, but ZERO affiliate hit. No sales. Then yesterday I saw this system. Here claimed can get usd 45,000/month if we follow all the guide. My question, if we just started with Shopify, and we follow the guide, is it possible to get that number? By some posting I read, the contribution is more come from FBA instead of Shopify. Nice to meet you all here.

Glad to have you here. There are many shops on shopify that are doing much more than 45k, it's a pretty modest number but after couple of years you should be doing much more than that. just take your time to learn!

Jan says at 01:27 et

Hey guys, how valid are the estimated sales per month in the best seller finder?

Uncle Sam says at 01:28 et

They are pretty good, you must understand that real numbers only amazon knows, all the tools can use the estimates based on the BSR approximation!

Do you know number 1 reason most people fail in ecommerce?

It's because they never get themselves a chance, they never get started, always procrastinating and delaying the start.

I get questions and complains like "I don't have time for this", "How much time do I need?" Well if you can't even find time to learn how are you supposed to build your passive income?

The beautify of Amazon and Shopify business is that once it is set, you are set "for life" with a strong passive income.

The problem? Most people don't realize it and never start!

"I'm too busy working" (the old way)

So the hashtag for the day - TAKE ACTION!

Start implementing what you learned and you will become successful, I believe in you!
