hey guys mike bastille here and in this
video we're talking about how to make
money with alibaba.com and have
beginners earning 100 to 700
per day more that after than joe
hey guys how's it going mike lucille
here welcome to this video before we
actually get in and remind you that
several spots have opened up for this
week's free workshop
where it's the fastest and easiest way
to make money online we literally have a
62 year old woman go from zero to 160
grand profit in 90 days
check it out on the free workshop below
alright guys so the first step is
actually understanding what alibaba.com
is
alibaba is essentially a place where you
could go to online
that connects you with all the chinese
suppliers that can allow you to sell
physical products like if you could see
right here you notice that there are
literally so many different products
that you could go ahead and sell on
alibaba.com and the beauty about this is
this allows you to get very very good
high quality products for very very low
price as you can see there's handbags
waste bags backpacks
it's all these warehouses that are
literally located in china that kind of
supply the bigger
online e-commerce brands right now and
this is where most people
actually go to to buy their products in
bulk and get them at a very very
affordable price
for example back in the day i wanted to
start an e-commerce business right and i
was like okay
i want to go and sell grill mats because
you know me and my dad were into
barbecuing and we're like okay maybe
grill mats is a huge need and especially
because we're around the holidays people
are going to go ahead and buy it
so literally back in the day i would
come in here type in grill mats
and normally you know i found out that
we could go ahead and sell them for like
19 or 20
online but the craziest thing is when
you go to alibaba and you buy it in bulk
my cost would only be 36 cents so you
could actually see the entire profit
margin right there like think about it
like back when i went from like zero to
1.5 million dollars in sales in 12
months
the reason why we were able to scale so
much is because we understood which
products would allow ourselves to give
a really good profit margin so that we
could just reinvest back into the
business
now the second step is identifying your
winning
niche now the problem with people that
are you know just
going to alibaba right away sometimes
people get overwhelmed
and they don't actually know which
products actually go ahead and sell so
that's why most of your time on alibaba
should actually be going after the
products that you already know will sell
one of the things that helps out a lot
is actually going to alibaba's sister
company which is ali express
and it allows you to actually see which
types of products are doing well right
now that are already in demand
for example say if i wanted to start
selling ecommerce products to cat people
right i can literally just type in cat
and without me having to second guess
what i could actually go ahead and sell
you could see if i sort everything by
orders i know just right now
that these are the top selling products
in all of
like china in terms of cats like you
could see that this one right here is a
bed cushion there's 26 000 sold
this one's a teeth grinding catnip toy
this is 20 000 sold
you know there's a litter mat right here
16 000 sold
this back stretcher for cats literally
14 000 sold
just like that i already know exactly
what is actually going to do really
really well for me
another way that i like finding wheat
niches or uh
products that i can go and sell is even
going to amazon and seeing how could i
actually improve products
so for example back in the day uh when i
was selling the grill mats right i would
literally come into here
and find grill mats that were going for
you know like 39
or something like that um and i would
come into here and find out what they
were doing
wrong right this was actually one of my
competitors at the time
i would come into all their reviews and
i would say okay
for me to sell a winning product i need
to solve a problem right
but if these people are selling these
like crazy and not solving certain
problems then that's where i could come
in actually improve on the product so
for example right here
very poor quality only use this once
complete failure
and does not wipe clean meat juices fats
burn into the sheets makes cleaning
really really hard
use once and mats split away during
washing in soapy hot water
so just like that you know i'm seeing a
quality issue in this so
when i go and reach out to people for
example these suppliers that are selling
it on alibaba
i need to make sure the quality is
really good the moment i understand
the exact product that i want to go
ahead and i've understood exactly how i
can improve
it by looking at all like the reviews
that you see in competitors in
amazon the next thing i want to do is
reach out and
chat with these people in particularly
and what i want to do is
order a sample now here's the thing with
alibaba you have these things called uh
minimum order quantities
and the more you order the cheaper your
price actually is
now the beauty about this with alibaba
is you could put your own branding on it
which we're going to teach you exactly
how to do
but before you want to you know devote
to buying like a thousand units or a
hundred units or even like 50 units
of this product you want to make sure
that this is high quality
so what you could actually do is go over
here and contact the supplier
or chat with them like directly and they
will give you what is known as a sample
so you could come in here
and literally see a sample of is this a
high quality product or not
and that will allow you to get like a
better judgment to see if this is
actually what you want to go for
the next step that you want to do with
the sample if the sample is really
really
good you don't want to waste any time
because the thing about dealing with
suppliers in alibaba
in china and whatnot is it could take
like literally months
to get over to your actual you know like
warehouse or even to your home like what
we did when we were first getting
started right with the shipping and the
branding and all those things it could
take like a long time especially
depending on the weight of the product
right
so when you actually have the product
sample and it is a good go
you want to start taking a bunch of
product photography pictures uh for
whatever e-commerce platform that you're
gonna go and sell it if you're gonna go
sell it on amazon
makes you take a bunch of pictures that
look like the competitors right here you
know just like simple
pictures or whatnot if it's on ecommerce
sites like shopify makes you want to
take a bunch of videos
and stuff like that as well maybe you
could start creating like advertisements
for facebook ads or influencer outreach
with that being said remember time is
very very important if the sample is a
really good quality
you want to make sure you want to start
taking some marketing material on that
now the next step you want to do is just
literally order
the products in bulk now i wouldn't go
and go crazy and swing for the fences
for like a thousand
i think the really good order size to
get started with is maybe 50 to 100
units okay especially if you are on
amazon or if you're selling your own
e-commerce products this is a really
good
place to go ahead and get started and
especially if you don't have that crazy
budget
it's really a good you know starting
point for those beginners
but before you order the most important
thing that you want to do is maybe add
your own
branding on it so what i did back in the
day is like i would go to upwork or
fiverr and i would literally type an
amazon logo
design or something that and you know
some of these people literally create me
a logo for like ten dollars or ten
dollars right here
or you can see some of them are as low
as like five dollars
the reason why as you can see right here
for five dollars you can literally put
any design or logo
on any of your you know physical
products right it's very powerful
because the thing about that
is then you create now your own brain
instead of just being like a one-off
you know brand that doesn't have much of
like a brand new to it
so fiverr and upwork is where you could
go to get really cheap graphic designers
create a logo for you
and then you can reach out to your
supplier and be like hey can you uh put
this
on all of these packagings or whatnot
and then they can actually add
the packaging for you allowing you to
actually increase your prices which
allowed us to actually sell
you know our grill mats for like up to
26 dollars to 29
at a time for something that would only
cost us like 50 cents
now really good example of that is like
gymshark this is literally what they did
they
started with like fitness products and
whatnot and because of that they were
able to pull in
18 million pounds in profit so it's
about like 20 to 25 million thousand
they did literally do the exact same
thing they
got test products from china they put
their own branding on it using upworker
fiverr
and then it was time to actually go
ahead and scale their business
now when it comes to selling there's
really two ways that you go ahead and do
about it if you want to just do it
yourself you can literally partner with
a company like dollar fulfillment
and then they will literally store all
of your products for you and ship it out
to your customers directly
the beauty about this is you could link
it with shopify so that way if anyone
ever buys from your ecommerce store from
shopify it will just ship it out to them
directly
another way that you can use is also
fulfillment by amazon
that way you can literally just ship it
to amazon and they'll do all the selling
for you
but you need to also understand how to
use amazon how to how amazon works how
to
price your listings how to actually
title your listings how to actually get
the right images if you need help with
that we have a full amazon fba tutorial
in the
link below but essentially when people
get started these are the main two that
people go ahead and get started
with and then of course if they want to
go and sell cap products and they want
extra marketing they could go to youtube
and find really cheap influencers to go
ahead and
partner with to go ahead and make videos
for them like what i would like doing is
scrolling down
and finding people that literally talk
about cat stuff
if i was going to go ahead and sell like
the cat products like i was showing you
uh for this example and just like that
you know these people can literally go
ahead and make videos about it and look
it's like almost extra free marketing
600 000 views
only 4 000 subscribers if you give them
like like 20 bucks or 50 bucks for per
video
you know they're not making any money
and they would get actually excited that
you're paying them to actually make
videos that they're already making
videos about
another way that you can make money with
alibaba is with affiliate marketing
now people actually recommend alibaba
and people buy products from alibaba and
the craziest thing is you can earn
upwards to 240 000
every month with the world's largest
online place all it is is it's free to
join
um global reach of 15 alibaba sites uh
with different languages
and the craziest thing about this is
once people buy things from alibaba you
can get a percentage
of the sale what you can actually do for
example is talk about like e-commerce
or uh tips and whatnot like if i just
type in e
commerce marketing right look at all
these things that pop up if i start
making videos on all these things and
people like well
where can i find suppliers if you
recommend alibaba and if they go ahead
and make a purchase of like
a hundred or a thousand or ten thousand
dollars you could get a percentage
of that sale um which is beautiful
because then you don't need your own
product you don't need your own service
you don't need all like the hassles that
comes with like an ecommerce business
and it's really really passive you know
you could be the only person in your
team doing this you don't need a big
team you don't need to be tech savvy
you literally just need to create
content based around e-commerce and
alibaba
as you can see when i started doing this
you know the ads that also play on this
video kind of like
when i started creating content about
this is even insane
and you can see that it's even more
realistic for anyone just getting
started because if you could see this
this literally only just started
happening in the beginning of this year
you know like at the lowest of lows like
in august it was only like seven dollars
or something like crazy like that
and then it started going crazy the
moment i started treating it seriously
and creating content around this
um and other than of course you know
recommending affiliate marketing
products with alibaba
you can even find other products on
clickbank as well this is where i go to
go and promote offers as well
there's a bunch of products that you go
ahead and sell on clickbank that you
don't need uh you know crate yourself
you don't need customer service you
don't need to handle inventory they do
all that
and you can make some really good money
on the side as well you can see in the
past seven days we've netted about 8k
and if we go over in the past 14 days
you could see
that it is about 17k and then if we look
at the past 30 days
it is about 35k and of course if you
