HOW MUCH MONEY IS REQUIRED TO START DROPSHIPPING (MINIMUM - MAXIMUM)

We see how much money is required 

  1. MINIMUM PHASE

                 Here you can start with '0'rupees also, but it requires more time to achieve success or earn. In my perspective, you should have at least 15k to 3. If you have this much of it's enough because you need 20rs for opening a store, and the domain is hardly 1k rupees. Your remaining money is only for marketing. no need to worry but its all basic because u dont have any premium store and premium supplier, i tell you openly  your first 4 to 8 ads will get waste only because your ads account is very starting phase fb will want some warm account thats why, mine budget also 25k only i know full experience but there i have my partner thats why i ddint get much more loss  
🔸 So point of view you should have 20k onwards 

Expense CategoryEstimated Cost (INR)Purpose
Shopify Trial₹20 (first 3 months)Store Hosting
Domain Name₹800 - ₹1,200Professional Branding (.com / .in)
Marketing (Meta/Insta)₹12,000 - ₹15,000Testing 3-5 Products
Sample Products₹2,000Quality Checking

MAXIMUM PHASE

  Here you can start with 50k onwards. You should have at least 50k rupees, then no one will stop you from earning. I don't want to waste your time. If you read the minimum phase, then you will understand how you get access. 

     
    

🟢WHAT IS DROPSHIPPING

          Dropshipping is a real business that deals with e-commerce, and we understand exactly how it works.

HOW IT WORKS 

 In this business, mainly 3 persons/parts 
1] supplier 
2] you
3] customer 

EX- take the bottle is your dropshipping business 
supplier has a bottling manufacturing factory, but he doesn't have customers to sell to. Here is where the dropshipping business rises because you do the work as an agent or marketer, or a middle person, with your own margin, using marketing skills. 

BOTTLE PRICE  250RS 
YOUR SELL        300RS 
YOUR PROFIT    50RS 

  • NICHE SELECTION 

Niche selection is the toughest part of this business.
If you already know, then no problem, you can skip this process 
. If you don't know, then go to Facebook Ads Manager and scroll through several ads. You can find some good points by coming to Insta and searching for 'TikTokMadeMeBuyIt'Here, you find a little bit of knowledge, then you select a niche that does not matter when starting a business. 

  • BRAND NAME 



It's veryeasy tos go to namelix.com, put your keywords within a minute, and you will get your professional brand name. 

  • SHOPIFY ACCOUNT 

Shopify: Start by choosing a clean theme like Sense or Dawn. Set up your Legal Pages (Refund Policy, Shipping Policy) immediately—AdSense requires these.

  • SUPPLIER 


🔸DROPDASH (PERSONALLY I USE )
🔸ROPOSO  (COMMON)

  • AD ACCOUNT 

Ad Account: Don't just "boost" a post. Set up a Meta Business Suite account and install the Facebook Pixel on Shopify. This allows you to track exactly who is buying and "warm up" your account faster.

  • HOW TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS 

the financial flow:
  1. customer pays the retail price (eg,₹999) on your website.
  2. the payment gateway processes the money into your bank.
  3. you use that money to pay the supplier the wholesale prices (eg,₹450)
