Hey all,
I'm starting a new progress thread. A few weeks ago I tried to initiate a e-commerce competition including import/export or even dropshipping. I had a few responses and people willing to sign up with it but after a week or 2 they all stopped responding..
Not my issue.. My research for the ideal product persisted. Using my keyword knowledge and honestly researching a bit tooooo much but I think I settled on a decent product. My current keyword prospect has about 600 searches a day for it. I've reviewed the different long tail keywords on SEMrush and tons of great and relevant keywords are well above 80% in the KD and they add up to thousands per day. So That’s great news there for google adwords and SEO!!
Now the next thing I was looking at is the brandablity of the product. Which is through the roof because the only other brand is made out of a different material than what I'm looking for and I think my product has a much better appeal to a wealthier demographic especially after branding and marketing the product properly.
Now, For me to punch in the numbers… looking through the competition and what the suppliers have posted for their minimum orders/costs. Including shipping and manufacturing without any branding customizations is around 95%, I'm willing to take the branding cut to get market recognition. There's a manufacturer/brand that I want to reach out to but they are based in Europe and they have nothing here in the States so I might reach out to them and discuss rebranding them under my brand.
I'll be reaching out to them tomorrow in the AM so it'll be afternoon there. Hopefully I'll be able to get a price low enough to do an Import/Export web store.
