A founder who tested products on $50 a week while managing pizza places shares why persistence beats talent in ecommerce. He quit his job after months of failed experiments finally landed a winning product. The difference between him and peers who started together: he didn't quit.
If you want your notifications to look like this, listen up. This is what takes to succeed in E Comm, or dropshipping, whatever you want to call it. But what it takes to win in this game is really simple. And a lot of people have probably said this before, and a lot of people have probably. Heard this in many different aspects when it comes to sports and stuff like this. But literally the only thing that really separates me now from people who started the same time I did and haven't seen success is just not quitting and just staying in the game and continuing to play the game even when things are rough and things are not going well. So there was countless people who I saw, you know, on my journey who started around the same time as me, and they would succeed a lot, a lot more, and a lot more often have higher days, more sales than me. And I always thought to myself, why can't I do that? Why is this not happening to me? And this is not something you want to do. And I'm sure a lot of you guys watching this video do that. You compare yourself to people who started around you, but they're not your competition. You're your competition. All you got to compare yourself to is you. And as long as you stay on this road, you know, you continuously learn, try to find maybe new ideas, you know, new things to work on, not just do the same thing over and over again. That's insanity. You gotta. You gotta iterate. You gotta learn from your mistakes, learn from your failures and do better next time. And eventually, guys, you're gonna make it, and it's gonna be a lot quicker than you think. So if anyone needs to hear this, just stick to it. Just stick to it, man. Just. Just keep going. Give yourself a bigger time horizon to succeed. If you got to get a job, man, and you gotta, you know, make some money so you can pay for it. That's what I did. I worked as a pizza manager for, you know, a year. Before that, Chipotle. That's how I funded dropshipping. You know, I was doing tests for like $50 a week, you know, maybe a couple products a week. And eventually I found my first winner, moved out of my house, moved out or quit my job, and then didn't see success after that for another six months until I found this product. And this product has changed my life, literally. So just keep going on. Just keep pushing. Don't give up. And if you want to succeed, that's really all you got to do. You got to just not give up. And then just continue to learn and iterate. So hopefully, you guys, I know some people definitely need to hear this, so I just wanted to put that out there. But, yeah, love you guys. Peace.
