what are the best apps to find products,to sell you can use a product sourcing,app to find,and sell something that already exists,and be just as successful if you had,designed the product from scratch,let me show you how in today's video i'm,going to introduce you to the top,seven product sourcing apps for finding,products to sell on shopify,these apps will help you find sell and,ship,wedding products to your customers and,if you're not exactly sure what you,should be selling i'll teach you how to,make an informed decision,about what you should add to your store,so stick around until the end of the,video for that,hi everyone i'm your host michelle bally,so before we start,feel free to hit that subscribe button,here on normal shopify we have a new,video every week,with tips on how to start and grow your,online business,so for example we just recently dropped,a video on 12 trending products to sell,and how to market them so make sure that,you're subscribed so that you don't miss,out on any future videos,my number seven favorite app is,shapeways,so shapeways is a 3d printing and,fulfillment service,that lets you upload your own 3d models,and bring them to life as,physical products shapeways is free to,install you don't pay any subscription,fees or anything like that,you just pay for the materials and the,services that said,there are some upfront costs of 3d,modeling which can get pricey,but the upside is that shapeways allows,you to create truly unique,high quality products the available 3d,printing materials include plastic,steel gold aluminum and more,so for example you can design and,manufacture,on-demand custom jewelry pieces like,these rings over here,or if you're in the gaming industry for,example you can make gaming miniatures,that look exactly like your unique,characters,the possibilities are endless shapeways,makes it easy,and accessible to bring your custom,ideas to life,my number six top rated product app is,spock it so,spock it is a product sourcing app that,lets you add products from drop shipping,suppliers in the us,and the eu if you're not already,familiar with what drop shipping is,drop shipping is where a store doesn't,keep the products that they sell in,stock at all,instead a drop shipping business will,purchase the item from a third party,using an app like spock it for example,and the customer places an order from,your store,and your store will automatically send,the order to your drop shipping supplier,your drop shipping supplier prepares the,customer's order and then it gets,shipped directly to the customer,as a result the seller does not have to,handle or ship the product at all,drop shipping is a low risk low cost and,low effort method,in getting a business off the ground so,back to spock it you can download spock,it for free,but in order to start selling you're,going to need to sign up for a starter,plan,this plan is 19 us dollars a month and,it gives you access to unlimited orders,and other necessary features you can,choose from a large catalog,of quality wholesale products at a 30 to,60 percent discount,this leaves room for great profit margin,through spock it you can source jewelry,clothes sports equipment and more now a,common pain point with drop shipping is,the slow lead times,but with spock it you can take advantage,of fast shipping times,the number five top rated product,sourcing app is printful,printful is a print on demand company,print on demand uses the same,shipping and fulfillment method of drop,shipping with print on demand you can,print,custom designs onto virtually anything,this app is free to install,printful offers customization options on,popular products like t-shirts,posters and phone cases and pillows but,what makes them stand out from the other,print-on-demand apps is their range of,unique,products like bomber jackets and,leggings most print-on-demand companies,lack the ability to brand that customer,experience but with printful you can,opt-in for branded stickers,package inserts and labels before,launching your product offering i would,recommend that you order product samples,first,printful offers samples at a discounted,price so that you can see what your,products will look like,before you start shipping them off to,customers,sitting at number four we have creative,hub now creative hub,lets you sell premium art made by,contemporary artists,in your own online store this uk-based,marketplace allows you to sell art,without having to be an artist yourself,this app is free to install now the way,that it works is you're given a minimum,price that you can sell each piece at,and then from there you're free to mark,it up this will determine your share as,a vendor,some prints are even limited edition,which will command a higher price tag,fixed international shipping costs six,pounds and this keeps shipping logistics,simple,and lets you sell anywhere in the world,it's important to note that frames are,not included now if you decide to go,with creative hub,i would recommend that you source frames,with one of the other apps on this list,that way customers can shop all their,needs in one place and it gives you a,competitive edge,number three is drip shipper now drip,shipper is a,quality coffee drop shipper it costs 30,a month to gain access to unlimited,orders and products automatic order,fulfillment and one-click product ad,unlike other dropshippers you can,customize the label and coffee bags with,your own logo and,branding you also get to choose the kind,of coffee you want to offer from,single origin coffee packs of single,serve coffee capsules,decaf coffee and custom coffee products,where consumers can select the origin,roast and quantity you can even offer a,coffee subscription to encourage repeat,sales,and this is also going to increase,customer satisfaction as they can re-up,on their coffee supply before they run,out,lulu express is the number two pick for,print-on-demand books and calendars,lulu express is free to install you only,pay for services and products,once you place an order lulu express,focuses exclusively on books and,calendars,making it accessible to launch your own,book product or,sell the work of other authors in,illustrators you can pick the size of,the book,and whether you want a hardcover or a,soft cover now the customization gets,pretty nitty-gritty you can even choose,the color of the ink,and the quality of the paper have an,idea for a best-selling book,lulu express is a low-risk way to try,out your idea and prove it as a viable,business venture,before investing heavily in it here are,some ideas of what kinds of books that,you can print,so you can do a hardcover photo book you,can try a novel,a comic book poetry book

gems,oberlo data helps you hone your product,hunting instincts,and discover your winning drop shipping,product formula alright so that leads us,to our next point,some products will sell better than,others so let me show you how to find,the right products,that will fly off the shelves one of the,biggest questions you're going to be,asking yourself,when you're building your online store,is what to sell,how do some stores end up making six and,seven figures while others have trouble,selling any at all,it does come down to having winning,products and fortunately,all you need to do is find one to hit,big i know finding a product to sell,online is a deep topic,and requires research validation and,knowing how to source,and sell the products so if you're,hungry for knowledge and you want to,learn how to do this yourself,you're going to want to check out the,free 40-minute webinar that will teach,you how to find,and source a winning product to sell,just click the link in the description,box below,here are my top three tools to help,research winning products,amazon best seller list amazon has best,seller lists for literally every,industry that gets updated,hourly pay attention to the unbranded,products these types of products will be,easily available free to sell let's take,a look at luggage and bags,so on the bestseller list in backpacks i,found this military hiking,camping bag this is ranked at number,four on backpacks,it has 766 reviews,and a four and a half star rating i'm,liking this product so,once you find a product you like and one,that fits within your store niche,you would cross-reference with your drop,shipping app to see if it has the same,or a similar product available,i recommend that you don't use the name,that the manufacturer has given to the,product,good copywriting is your best,salesperson so come up with a,unique name that will differentiate,yourself from your competitors,and entice potential customers giving,your products unique names will also,make it harder for your competition to,reap the benefits of your research,and easily sell the same product as you,to properly name your products,use keywords you think people are going,to be typing into google to find what it,is that you're selling,now you can validate these keywords with,google keyword planner tool,also i cannot stress enough how,important product descriptions,are in turning website visitors into,customers so if your writing practice,involves copying and pasting product,features,from the manufacturer's website you're,going to want to check out this youtube,video,on how to write product descriptions,that actually sell koala inspector so,koala inspector is a google chrome,extension that allows you to see,the best sellers of any store that sells,with shopify with koala inspector you,can easily see your competitors,top selling products in descending order,along with the prices,visit a couple of your competitors,websites to get a better feel for the,landscape,this will help you identify which,products have good selling potential,and any market gaps you might be able to,fill for example if you see that your,competitors sell a lot of star-shaped,earrings,you too could sell star-shaped earrings,but you could also offer star-shaped,necklaces and bracelets,keep in mind though koala inspector does,not indicate the volume of the,best-selling products,so while star-shaped earrings might be a,best-seller it's not going to indicate,whether the store is selling 50 earrings,a day,or 50 earrings a year monitor,high-performing ads,ecommerce and dropshipping expert nicole,wrote an article for oberlo and she,identified that monitoring high,performing ads,is a great way to find winning products,so instead of scrolling through ads,stop to look at them for an indication,of what are hot sellers,nicole tells about how one day she,stopped to look at this ad and it was,for this big colorful blanket,the ad copy was lackluster and the,website design was mediocre at best,but somehow the ad engagement on this,winning product was,unlike anything she'd ever seen proving,that this was one of the best items to,dropship,there was comment after comment and,friend tagging like you wouldn't believe,it had tens of thousands of likes,everyone just wanted this product,it was almost hard to believe that these,comments were real but they were they,were real,she decided to look for a similar,product with oberlo trying different,keywords like,beach blanket and meditation blanket and,then after a bit of searching she found,the exact same product,but the truth is just because you find a,winning product doesn't mean you know,how to sell it,that first month she only made sixteen,hundred and fifty nine dollars,these numbers don't really hint that,success is coming up less than a one,percent conversion rate and only 39,orders,in this case nicole found a winning,product but there are other,considerations that contribute to a,product's success,your ad needs to target and attract the,right audience your website needs to be,designed for conversions,you need to convince customers to buy,right now before they go off and do,research and find your competitors,product,a little trick to consistently trigger,ads from various stores,is to add best-selling products from,various competitors to your cart,top performing stores will usually have,retargeting ads,which often gets triggered by abandoned,carts and you can use those ads,as inspiration for your own ads to give,you a better chance,of marketing your winning products so,the main takeaway to finding winning,products comes down to research,i know it's tempting to add random,products onto your store because you,like them,but if your goal is to sell out like,hotcakes you're going to want to hone in,on,research so that your selection is,already validated in the market,spend a couple of hours with those,tactics that we talked about and add in,research on google trends and oberlo,to get you started on the right foot,most say that the downside to drop,shipping,is that everyone is selling the same,product as you but i like to think of,this in a positive light if someone else,can make a six-figure business by,product sourcing,that could just as easily be you all you,need,is product research and an advertising,strategy to help sell those winning,products to the right audience,for more information on facebook ads,make sure that you're checking out our,facebook ads for beginners video,and i'll link that right here learn with,shopify is a channel for small business,owners with big plans,each week we post a video giving you the,knowledge you need to start,and grow a successful online business so,if you're a hungry entrepreneur,make sure that you're
