Why Should You Do Product Research

Start understanding product research first you need to understand why do you need to understand product research and why should you be doing proper product research so we’re going to be talking about Amazon product research but realistically speaking anything that I’m talking about in this video can be applied to any Marketplace that you’re selling on whether that be Amazon eBay Etsy or even on your own website

Shopify so first I’m going to start off with a few different reasons why product research is absolutely crucial and it’s not just because without the proper product research you’re not going to find the right products to sell it’s a little bit more than that and the first thing that we’re going to cover is competition management now when you’re selling on any platform in this case let’s say Amazon there’s going to be tons of different products and tons of different sellers when you’re conducting product research one thing you can do is start identifying different niches that have less competition if there’s less competition you have more of a chance to actually Stand Out be seen be recognized and make a few sales we also have

profitability now of course not all products are created equal some are going to be worth a lot more than others some are going to be able to be sold at higher prices even though the profit margin is going to be different with the proper product research you’re able to identify which items have the best potential for profit and which ones would work best for you on top of that you’re also going to be able to know more or less how many you need to sell to actually start being profitable.

CustomerAppeal is another huge Factor when it comes to our product research when we do product research we’re always looking to see what our customers want why are we always going on TI to and searching up # TikTok made me buy it well because on TikTok everyone is uploading article on some of their favorite products of course a lot of those blog post are going to be people that are actually drop shippers themselves and they’re trying to get some sales but they’re probably trying to sell something  customer that purchased that product and they’re making a review of it because because of how much they love it so when we’re talking about customer appeal we’re talking about understanding.

Trends checking out different customer reviews and pretty much Looking Through The Eyes of a customer and trying to more or less understand how they think and what they like because as we all know it’snot about what we like it’s about what our customers like another thing that product research helps us with is our risk reduction so when we do our product research we’re looking for products that are trending sometimes people like to purchase inventory and have them on hand or have their suppliers have them on hand and ready to ship with proper product research we can actually reduce the risk of staying with unwanted  inventory now a lot of the times of course as drop shippers we typically don’t work with suppliers where we have to purchase a minimum order quantity and have them store so in this case the risk that we’re reducing could potentially be the risk of let’s say ads not performing well because nobody likes the product or wasting money on promoting a particular product on let’s say Amazon or Etsy or eBay and last but not least it helps us adapt the e-commerce world is constantly changing it’s constantly evolving products are coming in products are are going out Trends are starting Trends are ending so you need to be prepared to adapt you need to adapt to the changing  Trends and product research can help you anticipate these changes beforehand so that way you’re ready now if you’re enjoying also ring that little bell notification so that way you’re notified whenever we release a new blog post so the next thing that we need to think about.

How To Select A Niche

How do we select a niche for our business, so this is kind of a broad question, because this really depends on the platform that you’re selling on certain niches. It can perform better on certain platforms, but taking Amazon as an example, these are some of the bestselling niches on the Amazon platform now is before I start counting these down I do want to let you know that there’s a ton of different ones and

if you want a complete list of all of this and a little bit more information on everything else that I’m talking about then some of the bestselling niches on Amazon we have Arts crafts and sewing Automotive Beauty and personal care cell phones and accessories clothing shoes and jewelry computer accessories Electronics handmade products kitchen and dining Office Products toys and games and honestly the list goes on on Amazon you can pretty much find anything that you need but these are just some of the top selling niches .

How Do You Find Winning Products

Ones how do you find winning products so what is it that we’re looking for exactly in each product what are the different check boxes that need to be checked off in the list of criteria for winning products well for one quality of course we need to have quality products we can’t send our customer a product that’s all scratched up or that breaks easily right we need to send them something that’s quality and something that’s going to last something that they’re going to open up and they’re going to think wow this is awesome we need to make sure that our customers are happy with their products because if they’re not that’s going to end up resulting in returns charge backs and bad reviews and ultimately on the customers just not shopping with us anymore we also need to ok at Price the products we sell can’t be too expensive they can’t be too expensive for us to source and we can’t sell them at too much of a markup

 Because if we do our customers aren’t going to buy them and if we purchase our products at a very high price and then we try to price them competitively then we could potentially be losing out of money so you need to to make sure that the product you’re sourcing is just the right price to both source and sell demand is up next and of course this is pretty self-explanatory the products that we choose need to be in demand we need to make sure that people actually want these products we’re not going to be selling fidget Spinners people don’t want those anymore profit margin I mean do I really even need to explain this one I mean we all want to make money right that’s why we’re here in the first place the next check boox is Niche analysis of course we need to be selling relevant items that are relevant to the niche that we’re selling in if we’re jumping into the clothing and fashion niche we’re not going to be selling power tools we also need to check out
other people’s products we need to see

what other people are selling and we  need to try to do better we need to try to offer some better variations better quality items so then we can check off competitor analysis delivery is another one so how fast can we get our products to our customers can we get it to them within a 2 weeks a month maybe not a month because as we all know a month is way too long people do not like waiting that long to be able to receive their products especially in the Amazon age everyone wants their items or their orders tomorrow Amazon has obviously spoiled absolutely everyone but people re understanding about the fact that
everyone has the resources that Amazon does not every company can compete with Amazon so people are okay with waiting one or two weeks for their items just anything more than that you want to stay away and we also need to check off returns so somebody doesn’t like our items or somebody just decides that they don’t want it anymore we Neetu have a plan for our returns all right now that we know what to look for in our products now we need to start figuring out what are the different research methods out there so how can we start actually finding these products so there’s two different ways there’s the manual way and there’s the automatic

Manual Product Research :

Start off with the manual way now when you’re doing your product research manually you’re actively looking for different products you’re not using any software you’re looking through different websites you’re looking through social media different articles whatever it is to be able to find these different products and as you look at the different products you’re just checking off your criteria boxes now the first way that we can do this is remember we’re taking Amazon as an example so in this case we’re going to be checking out

Our Amazon best sellers so when you’re on the Amazon best sellers page you can pretty much see all of the trends items on Amazon right now these are all of the different items that are consistently selling and people
are actively looking for now as you can see here there’s a lot of brand name items and that’s because it’s Amazon but think of it this way so they have air filters you don’t necessarily have to sell a brand name air filter you can look for some generic brand filters and start selling those as well same thing goes for let’s say this Stanley Cup of course I don’t know about you guys but in my area and pretty much everywhere I look everyone has these Stanley Cups Everyone is always walking around with them but when I went to purchase one it was like $45 and I thought I don’t want to spend $45 on one of these so then you can start looking on let’s say

AliExpress and start finding some different variations for it some cheaper options some better looking options and then you can offer that now the best seller section isn’t just limited to Amazon pretty much any online store has a best seller section you can go to AliExpress eBay Etsy CJ Drop Shipping or wherever it is that you make your purchases and you’re always going to find a Best Seller section or a top product section or something along those lines there’s also some blog articles that you can read that have a bunch of information on some bestselling products for one example you can check out our bests sellers blog over at models.com there we have the best products to sell for each month the best products for Seasons different occasions different holidays different niches different stores pretty much anything that you can think of Google Trends is also another great tool that you can use to be able to check the popularity on certain Trends throughout the year or you can also use this to be able to anticipate Trends before they actually happen so
right now we’re actually going to be searching up swimsuit I’m going to give you a quick example of how to be able to use this so let’s search up swi suit and right now for whatever reason it’s set to North macadonia I have no idea where that is but let’s go ahead and switch this over to the us all right so by default it’s actually set for the past day I like to switch us over to the Past

5 years now you can see a clear Trend where all the different spikes are so as you can see there’s not a lot of people searching for swimsuits around October or November but between February and March it really starts to pick up withit peaking around May or June then it starts to go down towards the end of July and the next year around February or March it starts to increase again with the peak being again around July then it starts to dip and it’s just the same thing over and over so now you know

you want to start stocking up on swimsuits if that’s what you’re selling around February or March so that way you can be ready for peak season around summertime or right before summertime Google lens is also another awesome free tool so right now we’re checking out the same Stanley Cup that I was talking about earlier and all we’re going to do is we’re going to right click it and then search images with Google then it’s going to ask us to select the image if it doesn’t pick it up automatically so in this case what I’m going to do is I’m

just going to go ahead and highlight the item itself and then here on the right we’re going to have a little pop-up window with an image search so instead of searching for text it’s going to search for this image now if you scroll down you’re going to see a few different suppliers so you can see that Stanley the website has it for $35 some people sell it for $45 on the same website keep scrolling you have it for $74 on eBay that’s crazy but what I’m looking for right now is knockoffs so I’m trying to see if there’s any items on here that are similar to it but not exactly a Stanley brand item now after a bit of
Scrolling I actually came across this one right here so this is a puzzle tumbler and it’s actually only $17.99 so
that’s not bad and that pretty much wraps it up for the manual ways of doing things of course there’s a few more ways but if you want a bit more information on that just go ahead and check out  to the relevant article.

Automated Product Research :

Automatic way and in this case what we’re doing is using different tools or different software to be able to find some best selling products trending items and the first one that we’re going to talk about is a Tik Tok adspy now for this you are going to have to have an account over at adults.com and if you don’t currently have one you can start your trial period right now for just $1 but once you have that set up and you’re signed on then you’re going to come to this screen by default we’re always going to go to the marketplace but what we’re looking for here is the Tik Tok ad spy and for this

we’re just going to look right under thetab that says Marketplace and winning products and click on the Tik Tok spy tool here you have pretty much every single ad that’s running both paid and organically promoting different products on Tik Tok now how do you have an organic ad well it’s pretty simple it’s just pretty much people making user generated content videos and posting them up just because they’re not paying for it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s
it’s not an advertisement for the product now here you can search through the different ads with a variety of filters so for one you can check out how many likes the video has you have a few different options starting from more than 20,000 all the way up to more than 500,000 you can also filter out by different Impressions so the same thing more than 20,000 up to more than 500,000 the interaction rate which goes by percentage the CTA button or the call to action button so some ads might say order now others might say shop now some might say send us a message you can filter through that on here as well then you can also filter by the source so organic or advertising and if you’re looking for a particular product let’s say a slushy cup you can search that up through here as well now as a quick example let’s check out this one right here this seems to be for a microphone let’s go ahead and click on C Tik Tok ad and here on the side you can see the ad actually playing then you have all of the different information that I mentioned earlier so

The Impressions the likes the comments shares total interactions and the interaction rate on top of that you can also see some more information on the post itself and some more information on the ad so you have the entire description here the duration of the video and the location that it was released so in this case this video released in the US and you also have the option to see the original post aside from the Tik Tok adspy you also have the winning product section now on the winning product section you have a lotof different products that are currently

Trending and have approved in track record so all of these items have beenselling people are currently searching for these items so they are backed up by demand so let’s say you decide to offer one of these for example this RFID wallet you can go ahead and click into it and scroll down a little bit and then you’re going to have quite a bit of information on the product itself some of this can actually help you market and sell the item so for when you have a profit analysis then you have a Facebook ad that’s currently running for this particular product so just like the Tik Tok adspice shows you Tik Tok ads here we show you Facebook ads we also give you the target audience for that Facebook ad so you can structure your ads similar to that one if you choose to and you also have a website now the link to this website will take you to a site that’s actually currently selling the item so if you want to get an idea more or less of how to structure your own website you could do so like that aswell another automated  way is AMZ tracker now AMZ tracker is a tool for
Amazon sellers if you want to try it out out they do currently have a 7-Day fre trial and you get access to keyword research rank tracking and listing Improvement suggestions now jumping back to autods we also have the marketplace now the marketplace is my personal favorite one because here you have items that ship from the actual autods warehouse and items that ship from our private suppliers both of which have guaranteed quality items with some pretty quick shipping on top of that some of the private suppliers that work with us also offer branding options so your items have the potential to ship with a branded thank you card helium 10 is up next and this is another tool for Amazon drop shippers this one gives you access to keyword research suggestions profit estimation and inventory management aside from that you also have jungle Scout with some sales estimation some Niche analysis profit margin calculations and suggestions on how to improve your listings now up until now

How Not To Conduct Product Research

we’ve been discussing how you can conduct proper product research but one thing that you really need to know is how to not conduct product research wait what so there’s a few things that you need to know that you really should not be doing when you’re doing your product research you shouldn’t be selling items that you think are going to be profitable remember not everyone thinks the way you do not Everyone likes what you like so just because you like it doesn’t mean everyone else will you need to make sure that the items you’re selling are proven people want them and it’s not just you and trust me when I say that a lot of the times you’re not even going to like the product thatyou’re selling remember we’re not

Selling to ourselves we’re selling to people and we need to offer people what they want also make sure that when you do product research you do product research on multiple products don’t stick to maybe just five or six different products bring in hundreds do product research on multiple products the more products that you’re researching the higher chance you are to come across one that’s actually going to sell you also don’t want to spend too much time on products that either don’t have enough demand or don’t have enough
people actually searching for it this is ultimately a waste of time because if you do end up selling these products you’re going to be targeting a very small demographic of people and chances are you might not even get a sale you also don’t want to try to go with products that don’t have absolutely any reviews or that are brand new you want to make sure that the products that you start researching have some sort of social proof you want to make sure that people are searching for them and you want to make sure that they have pretty positive reviews and last but not least you definitely want to make sure that you’re not selling prohibited items so each Marketplace has a few categories of items that you shouldn’t be selling but for the most part they’re all pretty much the same now for a full list of products that you shouldn’t be selling
make sure you check out Amazon’s guidelines or ets’s guidelines ebays whatever platform you’re selling on check out their rules but as a general
consensus don’t sell things like fire arms don’t sell weapons drugs potentially toxic or hazardous materials and this one’s a big one copyright items don’t sell copyright or trademarked items and that’s pretty much everything
