If you have never been to my channel before again, my name is aj lechelle, i'm the owner of the fluffy hustle, and i help people start online businesses um specifically working in shopify. So if you want to start a shopify store, um online boutique whatever it is, you sell whether it's going to be hair lashes, clothing, shoes, earrings accessories. Whatever you want to do, i am your plug, so um i offer vendor lists. I offer web design graphic design. I offer classes so anyhoo, that's what i do so if you are trying to figure out how you can find and source your vendor for your hair company and for drop shipping specifically, then this is the video for you now. If you don't know what drop shipping is that basically means that you never hold your inventory. Basically, you put a product up on your website. Somebody decides to purchase it from you and you go to your vendor and they send the product to your customers. So you never have to touch the product and a website that a lot of people use for drop. Shipping is aliexpress, but aliexpress is a massive website and there are thousands of vendors on aliexpress and it is very possible to pick a very bad vendor for sure, and you don't want to be on that end. A lot of other issues that people have with aliexpress is the long shipping time like things that come from aliexpress a lot of times take a very, very, very long time to get to you. So today, i'm going to show you how you can quickly find vendors that don't take a long time that are top rated and have good product and that do drop shipping. So let me show you my process today we're gon na the example i'm using is for hair. Specifically, if you guys want me to do another video around a different type of product, then let me know in the comments below. As always, please like comment share and subscribe, definitely for sure subscribe, definitely for sure turn on your notifications, um and um share this with somebody. If you think like, if you have a homegirl friend somebody who needs this information share it with them, all right, don't be stingy. So let's go ahead and get started. This is the home page of aliexpress.com today we're doing hair, so we're going to go down here to uh beauty, health and click on hair all right. So it's going to bring you to this page. It'S going to give you a lot of products and that's cute, but one thing i want you to notice is like, for example, right here. This is basically they're saying your best match. How do they know what your best match is when all you did was click on hair right and what they're showing here like, for example, this whole top line are ads, meaning these are stores that have paid for their product to be boosted so that they can Be seen right, so i don't necessarily want to go with them, not that some of the ones that are being suggested are bad choices and they don't have good product. But i want to go with vendors that are tried and true. So, for example, this particular vendor. They have a 5.0, but they've only sold five of these products. Now this could be a vendor on the come up and stuff like that, and they could be absolutely amazing. I'M not saying that, but what i am saying is of this particular product they've only sold five, so let me go and just click on this vendor. This is all random. I'Ve never done this before so they've been open for six years. Okay, they have a positive fee feedback rating right and they have their rating is like 4.9 and above so they are looking good. Look at my girl, um, savannah silver anyway, so they're um, they're good right, like it looks okay, but we don't know how much product they're moving. We don't know so um, let's go their top selling okay, so they move units. So i'm not saying that they don't move units but like, for instance, this bundle deal that they have with the brazilian straight hair. They move units they've sold 497 of them, that's fantastic. Let'S click on the listing, okay, but and let's see here, and they offer free shipping and that's good and their estimated delivery time, for this is december 9th, but it's not really saying like where shipping from so we have to assume that it's being shipped from china, Let'S look at like specifications because we, the one thing you do want to look at, is specifications to see if they do drop shipping or something like that, and i'm not seeing that. I'M not seeing that on their listening, that they say that they drop ship or anything like that. So you don't want to go the whole thing. Let me click clicking on this in the first place. Is the show that you don't really want to go through this, because this is a guessing game. You don't know if you're going to pick a good vendor or you're not going to pick a good vendor. You don't know you don't know what you're gon na get right. So that's the reason why i'm like that's okay, to try to go this way, but this is these are the things i look for specifically. So what i do is i switch from best match and i click on orders so right away. What the system is going to do is going to show you who is selling the most, who has the most orders so they're doing the they're moving product, fast, okay, and if they're doing a lot of business a lot of times, then you can say hey well, They probably have a good product because they're moving a lot of units, but what else do we want to sort by? The other thing i want to sort by is ship from. I want them to be shipping from where the united states, so a lot of people do not know this, but aliexpress does now have warehouses or some of their vendors have warehouses here in the us. Why are they doing that? Because a lot of the united states dropshippers, a lot of drop shippers want their product to get to their customer faster. Typically, if you purchase from aliexpress a lot of the the gripe that people have with aliexpress is that the shipping time takes so freaking long that if they try to drop ship, their customers would be waiting a month or more for their product to get to them. And they don't want to have to go through that, but a lot of people don't realize that for a lot of top selling products and vendors that move a lot of product, they actually have started getting warehouses and storing product here in the us, so that it Can get to their united states based customers much much faster! So that's why now, if you sort by ships from the united states, now you're gon na find the vendors that have product right here, ready to ship out okay, so now we are looking at so this particular vendor, like this particular wig from we wave official store, Has sold over 7 000 units um and that particular product has a 4.7 quality rating. So that's letting you know if they've sold they sold over 7 000 of these units. It is maintain a 4.7. That'S a pretty good ratio of keeping the rating high and the quality of the product high for them to have sold so many of them. So that's a good thing to look at same thing with this particular deal where you get a closure, looks like a four by four closure and three bundles um for this particular deal. It looks like um, they've maintained a 4.7, and let's look at this particular one. Let'S just look at bo diva, so we're going to click on this on this listing, and this is how i check to see so one of the things i look at is: okay. You see here ships from china, so i click on this. I click a product and i click click option and it's telling me so they offer free shipping. So that's one thing: anyone you don't have to worry about on your store is charging people for shipping because you're not being charged shipping um. They are shipping from the united states via usps, so we see that here is usps and it generally takes anywhere from 4 to thirteen days. So with that being said, maybe you could tell your customer that they'll receive their product within seven to ten business days. Okay, because seven to ten business days can be up to two weeks. So that's basically what this is saying it's up to two weeks right, so you can do that. That'S much more reasonable than saying it could take four weeks to get your product right. So at least it's gon na be shipped um from the united states right. So the other thing that i do like to take a quick gander at is customer reviews, because i'm going to be doing a video later on how you can get these reviews on your site, because technically these people are reviewing the product that you're selling. But we'll talk about that later, you want to go in. You want to look at the reviews. One of the things that i say personally about the reviews is look at. The reviews from the united states do not look at the reviews from overseas in different areas, because a lot of times their quality standards in other countries can be different from what we have here and we are spoiled a lot of times here in the us. We have high standards for things that in other places they might not have the same standards as us. So i like to look at the reviews from the people in the united states and, as you can see, a lot of the reviews. Every review i've looked at so far has all been from the united states, and these are all the most recent reviews and they're all five stars like so that's dope and a lot of these girls. They post their photos with the product, okay, so boom boom. Okay, so they're showing you the product that they love it that it looks great like you know, sisters is showing you, the business they're, showing you how it came, packaged how everything looked look at that it looks like it looks good boom all right. So look at the reviews. The other thing that you want to look at is specifications some vendors list this in different places, but you want to look at specifications and what i would like to look at specifically is if they offer drop shipping and label customization. So they do. They offer drop shipping label customization and wholesaling. So that's a that's a plug right there. So i'm literally giving you guys a vendor. This vendor says off top, we drop ship, we do label customization and we do wholesaling. Why is this important when you are sourcing a vendor? It'S important, because you want to know that this vendor is accustomed to drop shipping, because when you drop ship you do not want the vendor to include their promotional information. They, don't you don't want them to tell your customer where you're getting your hair from you want them to send out your product with basically no name on it with no nothing. No, you don't want your customer to have any indication so even like when i'm looking at this picture. That'S this um selected here. When i look at the packaging, it doesn't appear like it has name like a name. You understand what i'm saying. Let me try to zoom in and see if i can get closer. So you see what i'm saying this shows you right here. It just says: 100 human hair is unprocessed natural hair and that's it. It does not have any name on it. It doesn't say a company name on it when it comes to the product, so that's good, because your customer won't know that this is being drop. Shipped they'll. Just think this is your packaging. Do you understand what i'm saying so you it's good, that they don't put any names or labels on their packaging? They don't have their name on their bundle wraps and stuff like that. So that's the kind of stuff that you want to look for when you're sourcing a vendor and they specifically say that they are a drop shipper. So it makes sense that they're not going to label their products. Now we found a winning product. We basically found a product that is successful, that has moved a lot of units that has maintained a high quality rating. One of the things i suggest for people when they are starting a drop shipping store is that you do not have a bunch of stuff on your store from a bunch of different vendors. Why? Because a you don't want your customers getting packages from all these different places. It'S gon na look kind of crazy if you're saying i'm the business, but you are sending them different packages. That'S gon na be confusing so generally with drop shipping stores. A rule of thumb is to stick within a general niche. I know a lot of y'all love to like have everything on your store, but when it comes to drop shipping specifically, it makes more sense for you to basically have a theme store. So if you don't sell, hair, sell hair so find you a vendor that pretty much offers the things that you want to provide. So what you can do is look at the actual official store, like the main store page right. So this is their main store page and then you can look at all the products that they offer. Okay, so you can go in here and look at if you all products and it looks like on bodiva, they offer 335 different products right and you can go through here and you can look at different products that they offer okay and see what you want to Include on your store now, one of the things that i have noticed with the vendors who offer shipping to like fast shipping from the united states that not every single thing that they offer on their store is available to be shipped from the united states. So let me click on this and see if this one has this offer so yeah. They have this product here in the united states, which is awesome, but not every vendor is like that. So yeah they looks like they carry a lot of their products here in the united states. So that's awesome, but not every vendor. Does some vendors only carry some of their products that they offer here in the us like they're, fast selling, their high ticket products or their products that are moving the most? Those are the ones that they keep in stock here in their united states, warehouses, and so not every product on their store is based here in the us. So i'm saying all of that to say like if you are looking at products - and you want to add it to your store, just make sure that the product that you select also shows that it's available in the united states. Now i'm going to do a separate video about how to use an application in shopify, specifically called oberlo to import products from aliexpress. So that's why this is. Actually, you know important as far as what i'm saying so yeah. Here'S a plug bo bo diva is a vendor that does drop shipping um of hair and based on everything that i'm seeing here like they look like they're good they're, a good one. They have a lot of product. It seems like that is available to ship out from the united states. They um clearly say that they do drop shipping. They do customization so reach out to them and say: hey, i'm i'm looking to drop ship with you um. What is the criteria for doing um, custom labels and all of that stuff? For you know the products that you ship out on my behalf, ask them what their drop shipping process is. All of that good stuff, all the things that you want to know um the other thing that i would say, here's the other thing that i will say and i will say it and shout it from the rooftops. Even though people don't listen, i would start small right with what you offer. Okay and here's the reason why number one i highly suggest that you purchase whatever you want your top seller to be so, for example, let's say you want to offer that um this this uh bundle deal like this is going to be the thing that you push On your store right, you want to have the bundle deal now when you import things, you can use their photos, but here's the thing these photos are not theirs a lot of times or sometimes these are photos of um influencers who they've worked with, but these influencers Have not worked with you and people are getting hip to people stealing photos right, so they're going to be like. Oh no, i watched a youtube video and such a such a did, a collaboration with this other company, and that was the style that she did and you're using her picture and that's not your hair, okay. So with that being said with that being said, i feel like it is important, it's important for you to get some of the product yourself. So if you were going to start offering these this brazilian body wave here with three bundles in the closure order, it yourself, because you want to test the product out yourself right like it, makes sense like you - want to test this out yourself to make sure it Makes sense it don't have to be the most expensive thing grab this. You know what i'm saying is the 18 20 22, with 18 inch closure that'll make a decent looking wig or do a decent install. However, you're going to get it done, because what you want to do is by having the product you want to take tons of pictures of it. You want to show yourself washing it. You want to show how it looks when it's conditioned. You want to show how it looks after it's blow dry. You want to show how it looks after it's styled. You want to show this hair being used. Y'All feel me: you want to show this hair being used and if you can show the hair being used, then the customer feels like you have the product. Okay. So that's why it's so important that you actually purchase some of the products that you were going to be selling okay. So if you want to sell this bundle - and this is what you're going to push hard, because a lot of people feel like your store - has to have a whole bunch of stuff it, doesn't it really really doesn't? If you have this, this particular offer - and it has all these different links of closures and stuff like that and you're, showing the quality of the hair, you can literally push people to that particular page for that particular bundle. I find that this works better with wigs, though when people do do that. So let's say there's a particular. Let me go back to bo diva's main page and let me go to products and let me go to what's hot right now. These headband wigs right so everybody's talking about these headband wigs and they have them so we're going to look for headband wigs, and i only want to do headband, wigs that have some that have gotten some seals. So it looks like this. Headband wig got some sales and it does look like see. Okay, this. This is what i'm showing you you see this listing. They don't have these headband wigs here in the u.s, even though this they're saying it'll get to your customer by december 9th. So within 10 days, or so because today's december 1st they're saying that there this is not showing that this product is here in the united states. So this is not a product that i would put on my store if i did not know for certain that they had it in stock here in the us. So i'm glad i actually was able to find an example of that. Let me try to find something: let's just do, let's say a bob wig and let's say this one, because this this week right here, so let's say we wanted to push this short wig. This is the wig that we are wanting people to get and we know they can ship it from the you know from the united states, and you just want one piece and that's it we're going to pick the color, the cardi yellow, all right. So this is it order this product yourself and you can actually just promote this one wig, you don't you don't have to like promote your home page and we'll talk about that, but you can push one product. I see people pushing one single product all of the time you don't have to have a store full of a whole bunch of stuff. You can have one thing that you're pushing and that's it. Okay, like i literally seen a store and all they sold was short wigs. That'S it no long short wigs was all they sold. I think it was called short wig store, like that's what it was called. So don't think you have to have a whole bunch of products um, but yeah so actually have the product in hand that you want to sell so give yourself some room to actually purse purchase some of the inventory, because that's going to allow you to do photo Shoots, that's going to allow you to show people how to hair moves and all this kind of stuff you want to show the hair wet, especially like if you showing like curly hair like this, like this kind of hair, gets people attention because you can wet it. You can run your fingers through it. You can show how the curls pop, how they glisten people love seeing that kind of stuff when it comes to curly hair, so whatever it is, you're gon na do like if you have, if you are selling like straight here, maybe you want to show how bone Straight it gets like that it has movement and it has that swing to it. If you're selling body wave hair, maybe you want to show how full it can be, how good it holds a curl. That kind of thing like you want to be able to show your product off, and if you don't have the product in hand, it's going to be very hard for you to promote a store where you don't actually have product. You need to show the product, especially if you're, trying to build a brand. You want to show the product so anyway, i have basically giving you guys all of the tips again bo diva. It looks like it's a good store to start off with. I would absolutely reach out to them and say: hey um. I am interested in drop shipping with you.
