I saw a video from Alex Hormozi recently and in it he said “don’t preach at people and tell them what they SHOULD do” ….”instead explain what’s worked for you and hopefully it’ll work for them”

And this made me realize, this is exactly how I’ve been approaching a lot of my videos.

So today, instead of telling you what you should do, I’m simply going to tell you what’s been working for me.

Typically, my work day would revolve around waking up and setting up my laptops for my Virtual Assistants.

I would have 3 of them start listing on Facebook Marketplace and Facebook Shops.

Then when they were done those, they’d move on to listing on other sites like poshmark, mercari, and others.

My other VA would process orders. Depending on how many orders came in the past day and overnight, he’d typically process them all day….and if there were A LOT, I’d help process orders too.

B/c if they didn’t get done a day or two after they were placed, shipping times might start getting behind and then everything would suffer.

On days where orders were a little bit slower, he’d either finish them and then do product research for Amazon Dropshipping…or setup amazon products in seller central (if we already had a list of profitable products to add).

I built out an entire system for each one of these things…and hired each person to implement those systems step by step.

It was a constant grind day in and day out (even on most weekends), but of course the money was great…so I stuck with it.

Fast forward to today….my main Facebook account is now disabled (which was responsible for about 10-20K per month in profit across a marketplace and several shops)

and the other accounts I still have (new marketplaces and new shops) are all down significantly.

I’m still doing anywhere from $100-200 in daily profit across all accounts….but obviously that’s a far cry from what I used to do with ease.

Honestly though….I’m relieved. Facebook dropshipping at that level was literally a STRESSFUL full time job…even though the money was great.

And losing those main accounts made me rethink my approach and adapt….which ultimately led me to a more hands off type of business where I’m more so an overseer…..and I can spend a lot more of my time creating videos like this which I enjoy….mainly b/c the dropshipping business runs itself.

So, now I’ll wake up and I’ll setup my computers for my VAs just like before.

I’ve learned to hire directly from OJPH. From there, you’re able to hire good VAs but for $2 an hour to start.

Which is a MASSIVE difference from the $6-10/hour my VAs we’re earning before.

That allows me the freedom to test A BUNCH more things b/c I’m not handcuffed by NEEDING to get a positive ROI on every hour.

It’s pretty easy to make a few sales a day per VA to at least net even at that rate obviously….and if you’re doing it right….you can definitely do better.

Once the computers are setup my VAs will begin to list on a number of websites (Facebook marketplace, Facebook shop, bonanza, Etsy, mercari, poshmark, depop, kidizen, grailed, curtsy, OfferUp, and vinted).

Now, since I have more flexibility…we just take the volume approach and hit every platform as much as possible each day (with some well researched products sprinkled in too). And it’s working pretty solid I would say.

We’re not doing the same numbers as before when Facebook was the wild Wild West as far as revenue goes….but profitability across the business as a whole is pretty close too that

….simply because the expenses of paying 4 VAs $8/hr to list, do product research, and process orders is MUCH cheaper than paying 3 VAs a total of $24 per hour.

That’s literally 1/3 the cost….a major difference.

I also have 1 VA that processes orders from the previous day as well. And then contacts wholesale suppliers for Amazon’s dropshipping after that.

We shoot to contact just a few suppliers a day…b/c if too many respond in a short time frame, we typically can’t get setup with all of them quickly enough, which can be a bad look.

I’d prefer a slow consistent scale….which is exactly what we’re doing.
