We're back. Welcome to New Series, man. I guess we're squatting every day. Bulgarian style. If you guys don't know about it, Bulgarians were a weightlifting dynasty. And they kind of popularized, or at least powerlifting, kind of copied some of their stuff where really, really high frequency, really high intensity, and actually lower volumes. Or I actually think that's an issue of some powerlifting coaches in programming now is people don't balance that. So they're trying to get the best of both worlds where they're like really high frequency, right? Squatting three, four, five, six times a week, high intensity, so they're handling heavy singles, RPE 8s or 9s year-round.  We can't do all of them all the time. So when I squat every day, like the Bulgarians, I'm going to switch variations. I'm probably just going to handle like one set a day. I just don't care enough. Like my quads have shrunk, but I just don't really like train legs like that. I never have because my legs grow a lot. And so I just want to squat for fun. I want to get my legs stronger and see what happens, you know, six months from now. If I want to push into a deadlift or a new PR maybe, my best squat ever still is just 590. We're still dieting. I'm down to 204 today, 203. So we've got another 10 pounds to lose. And then the rest of the program is just push pull. So today we've got a pole day, back in bicep. Tomorrow will be chest, shoulders, trice. Keeping it simple, back in the gym with the boys. Everybody's grinding, weather feels good. New shorts coming out. I don't know when this video is dropping, but stay tuned through SV.co. And I guarantee, Mike's personal guarantee, these are the best measures on the planet. Most comfortable, most functional, the best fit. I'm not just saying that, it's literally fact. I created them. It took me three years now to create these. We've put some out in the past and they were good. Don't get me wrong. The past versions were good. This new version is the best meshi in the game and that will ever be in the game. I don't just want to make clothes. I want to make the best functional, stylish, and most comfortable clothes. And I'll stamp my name on it. Let's train. Maybe I got big traps, but like all the homies that are about my height, Seabass, actually we haven't squatted together that much, but probably Riley, Bart, Bart, for some reason, they use a hella low squat rack.  I just want to like clear it and also unrack like this. And some folks might unrack like this, you know? So that might make a difference. Do you put this on? So some of y'all, I get this question a lot, even though I feel like it's less popular, like West Side Conjugate Training. And West Side Conjugate Training, popularized by Louis Simmons and West Side Barbell, basically took Russian methodologies, which has like a lot of variations and a lot of moderate, submaximal volume, kind of Shaco stuff. You guys think about Shaco, if you ever run some of those programs. And then Bulgarian, which is super specific, super heavy, high frequency, high intensity, and he kind of tried to mesh those.  And you're choosing variations on each day. You're never gonna do the competition lift, you're doing a variation of that. And on one day, you're literally going to RPE10 max single.  You're gonna do like 10 sets of three as fast and as perfect as you can. So when I'm going Bulgarian, I'm gonna go variations on it, which actually isn't what the Bulgarians did. And again, this is all weightlifting, transferred to powerlifting. So you can't like go tip for tat, that's not the same. I mean, you can in some instances, but yeah, my real goal is just to find a groove. I can't handle the volume I used to handle. That's when my body starts to get a little angry on any lift, a lot of volume of bench, a lot of volume of deads. And don't say like, am I carelifting wrong or me too? Like man, year round basketball, like 15 years, no breaks. And now I'm year 13, 14 year round powerlifting, no breaks. So like my body is just beat, you know? So this is the best way for me personally to get strong. Very moderate, low volume, very high frequency. And I'm just hitting the groove, hitting the groove, hitting the groove, feels good on my hips, feels good on the brain. But just push a little bit. Yeah, and I know when to hold back and stuff. Some of y'all crazy motherfuckers don't know how to hold back. So like, I know like, all right, today in my head, I'll hit like RPE seven or eight, you know?  And that's the real answer to coaching is some athletes don't know when to pull back and some athletes don't know when to push. And that's why you really, majority of folks do need to coach. Same conversation. The truth is the sweet spot's probably in the middle for most people. I'm not calling myself like a crazy outlier, but I've just trained every way. Trained Westside conjugate for four years, strict under Westside principles, under guys that have been at Westside. I trained Shaco and I hung out with Shaco for weeks. I've trained Bulgarian with crazy high frequencies. I've kind of done it all. And again, just because the wear and tear in my body and with my schedule and my lifestyle, the higher frequency intensity tends to work well for me. But even like Seabass behind the camera, like his coach has done a great job with him and they, you know, they're kind of medium frequency to high frequency, moderate intensities are hitting a lot of RPE eights and stuff as they ramp up and pretty moderate volume. They're not doing 10 by sevens or anything crazy. They're doing, you know, and again, so if one goes way up, the frequency goes way up, volume or intensity got to go down. One of them. You just can't have all three really high and that's the most folks. So for me, that's what's rocking in my bodybuilding or my hypertrophy is slightly different. My intensity is through the roof. So I'm going like two failure as much as I can. And then my frequency is moderate when I'm trying to most body parts two or three times a week. And then the volume's moderate. I'm doing one or two sets per exercise, three ish exercises per body part, right? So it's much different than squatting every day, five sets of five, that shouldn't even gonna rock. Lots of ways to get strong. Programming's very complicated. It's more so getting a big old tool set and then applying those tools per the individual for the program. So there's just a little rant on what I'm doing. Doesn't mean you gotta do it. A lot of times I'm just trying to have fun. People ask about my goals. I don't know if I'll ever step on the platform again, powerlifting competitions just aren't for me, but I enjoy the barbell, I enjoy lifting weights, I enjoy the heat, I enjoy training. I enjoy becoming healthier and spreading my message of strength through the barbell and different exercises. So that's what we're doing for now. It might only last two months. I don't know, I'm not saying I'm squatting every day for the last of my life, but we're having fun with it now. We'll catch you in the next video. Be sure to give this thing a thumbs up. New videos every Tuesday, Thursday. Appreciate you all. 3SB.CO.


What's going on everyone, Mario here with Adidas. And in today's video, I'm going to be teaching you everything that you need to know in order to start dropshipping from Alibaba. Currently, Alibaba is one of the biggest suppliers for dropshipping products and has an immense amount of suppliers. On top of that, they also have an unlimited amount of niches. So trust me, you want to start using Alibaba as one of your suppliers. Now, before we get started as always, please make sure if you haven't done so already, make sure you hit that subscribe button as well as ring that little bell notification so you don't miss out on any future videos. Here on this channel, we cover anything and everything dropshipping related, ranging from the top products to dropship all the way up until the best tips and tricks to help you start and scale your business. Just check out all of these different comments from some of our viewers. Now to go along with this video, we do have an article that has everything that I'm going to be talking about and a little bit extra. If you want to check that out, just go ahead and check out the description down below. The link to the article will be there. So what exactly is Alibaba? Well, just like AliExpress, CJ dropshipping or DHK, Alibaba is a website that has tons of different suppliers selling a bunch of different products. And most of the times people use this website to purchase either wholesale items or to dropship items. Now, Alibaba has over 150,000 different suppliers. And honestly, there's a lot more than that. But all of these different suppliers have tons of different products. Some of them have similar products. Some of them have different products. And a lot of them are ranging in different niches. So rest assured that if you start dropshipping from Alibaba, you're gonna find pretty much anything that you need in any niche. Now, when it comes to dropshipping in Alibaba, there are quite a few different benefits. For one, as I mentioned earlier, you have a pretty immense product catalog. On top of that, you also have wholesale pricing and you have branding options. So some of the different sellers on there can help you put your brand or your logo on either your packaging or sometimes the items themselves. As far as shipping, Alibaba pretty much caters to the entire world. So you're gonna find worldwide shipping on there for practically any product. Also, some of the different sellers on there always have some sort of deal or discount going on where you can save a couple of extra bucks. And remember, as I always say, a dollar saved is a dollar earned. Another great thing about Alibaba is their buyer protection. So if you have any issues with a supplier or with a product that maybe got lost in transit or is delayed by maybe like four or five months, then you can go ahead and reach out to Alibaba themselves and they'll take care of you and they'll help you out.  Now let's take a quick look at one of the Alibaba product pages. So I currently just looked up a blender bottle and here you can see quite a bit of information. So you have different prices for different amounts of pieces. For the most part, this is how you're gonna find a lot of product pages on here and this actually leads me to one of the cons of using Alibaba. A lot of sellers are gonna have some sort of minimum order quantity, but don't fret because there is a way around that. So stay tuned just a bit and I'll go ahead and show you what you can do to avoid that. So as you see over here, you have 10 to 99 pieces. Those are gonna be $5. Then if you purchase 100 to 499, it's gonna go down 50 cents to $4.50 and so on. As you can see, there's also a few different variations and a bit more information on shipping as well as information on the product itself. Now just looking at this right here, it gives you kind of a similar feel of AliExpress doesn't it? Now in order to place an order with one of our sellers and have just one item shipped directly to our customer, we're not gonna be able to go with the generic product page route. So this is what we can do. So your first option is if you have a proven track record, if you are a drop shipper and you've had quite a few different sales, you can actually try negotiating with the sellers themselves and doing so is super easy. All you have to do is over here, go ahead and click on contact supplier. Once you click that, you're gonna have to sign in and then you're gonna get this little box right here. So it's gonna ask you for some information. In this case, it's gonna ask you for some product attributes. So after sale service provided, installation, warranty, if this comes up, you can completely forget about this. But all you have to do is look where it says detailed requirements. So here you can simply ask them, hi, I'm looking to drop ship some of your products. Can we please lower the minimum order quantity to one so I can add them to my store? What are your requirements for drop shipping? And thank you. And I look forward to hearing and working with you. Now, I always like to add this little bit at the end because personally, I always like to sound professional and courteous. So the way that I talk to them, I expect them to talk to me. Now, when you send an inquiry to some of these suppliers, this also helps you out in something else, which is communication. So a lot of the times since these manufacturers are overseas, typically in China, communication can be an issue. So if you send an inquiry or if you send a message to some of these suppliers, it's very helpful because this way you can get a feel for how they work and how they communicate. You can see how their customer services and how quickly they reply back to you. Now, remember, this is extremely important because their customer service, your supplier's customer service, ultimately is going to translate to your customer service. So if a customer has a question and asks you something about a product, if you don't have that information off the top of your head, then you're going to have to go ahead and ask your supplier. Now, if your supplier takes a week or two to answer you, that's how long you're going to take to answer your customer. And by that time, the customer is probably already going to either one, forget about the product or two, they probably already purchased it somewhere else. Now your second option for getting around the minimum order quantities is just check out the ready to ship section. So if you go to the homepage on alibaba.com right in the middle of the page, you're going to have ready to ship. So let's just go ahead and click on that and it's going to take you to a different one. Now, all of these different products have a lower minimum quantity. Some of them still have maybe a two, three, four, or even five minimum order quantity. And as you can see, some others still have large ones like 600, but you can just completely avoid those and look for the ones that just have a one. So for one, you have this barber chair right here, which is actually pretty interesting because I have a barber shop that's opening up a few blocks away that could potentially use some of these. So I might look into these and go talk to them or even then just create a quick website and send it to them. Aside from that, as you can see, also have these 60 color beanies. You have some microfiber towels. You have these little octopus toys, which have a minimum order quantity of two, which you can still make that kind of minimum order quantity work for you. So instead of offering just one or packs of one for certain products, just offer a pair. Take for example, this milk frother. It has a minimum order quantity of two and it comes in quite a few different colors, different styles. And all this is really used for is for making your milk frothy so you can put it in coffee. Now, it's only a dollar and 98 cents. It's extremely cheap and it's just for one. You can easily sell it in sets of two and just lower the price by a couple of bucks. Remember that a lot of the times you're gonna come face to face with a certain issue or a certain problem. And really at the end of the day, it's not a problem. You can always make it work for you one way or another. You just have to think outside the box. Now, one thing to keep in mind is a lot of these different sellers are gonna be selling the exact same products. The only thing that's gonna differ is quality. So make sure you always look for a supplier that has high ratings. So for example, the milk frother that we were just looking at, you can see that it only has three reviews, but it does have a five-star and so far it has 20 people that have purchased it. Aside from that, if we go back to the blender bottle we were looking at originally, you can see that it has a 4.4 star rating and it has 10 different reviews and 51 people have purchased it. Now, let's quickly click on the actual rating and here you can read the reviews of the product itself. So just take the time, look through the reviews, make sure they're positive and make sure they sound legit. Just make sure they don't sound too generic. A lot of times people are gonna include some details. So just watch out for stuff like that. If you see little details like this, quality is great, blue color looks more amazing with a gold line. That means this person more than likely actually did purchase it and it has the item in front of them and is leaving a legitimate review. As a quick note on the flip side of this, if you find a store or a product that has maybe one or 200 different reviews, but the reviews are extremely generic, like let's say this product is great. Wow, thank you. My mom loves it. My brother loves it. I purchased it from my cousin and they think it's great. If it's a lot of different reviews like that, be careful because if the reviews are not specifically addressing the product itself, there's a small possibility that the reviews could be fake. So always watch out and to avoid any confusion and make sure you have the highest quality, order a sample for yourself and check it out. Make sure it's good, make sure it's up to your standards and it's something that you would buy and actually keep. Now I know I mentioned checking out the reviews of the sellers and actually showed you the reviews of the items themselves, but this is how you can check out the reviews of the sellers themselves and how you can find actual legitimate sellers. So when you're looking at a product page, look for the seller information. So if you look on the right hand side, you're gonna see the seller's information. Now this can come in two different ways. For one, it can be simple like this and just completely white. So here you can see some information on the seller themselves.  So this means they've been selling on Alibaba for the last six years. Their response time is typically less than four hours. So if I message them now, for the most part, I will be getting an answer back within four hours. But then again, remember that can also vary on location. So I'm in the United States, they're in China. If I message them at maybe two in the morning, I know for a fact they're probably not gonna get back to me until the next day because over there it's gonna be like two or three in the morning. Then you can see how many sales they've had. So here they have 51 different transactions and you can see their on time delivery rate. So this is pretty cool because it shows you how many items have been delivered on time. So in this case, 85.7% of their deliveries have made it to the customers on time. Now this is one way that you're gonna see it. The other way is gonna be this one that shows verified supplier. Now when you see a verified supplier, that should give you a bit more trust in actually making the purchase. Verified suppliers typically have better reviews and have a better reputation on Alibaba. Now here you can see the same thing.  Then you can see that they're Chinese, they've been around for four years and here you have a bit more information now. So you have their store rating, so they have a 4.4 out of five stars. It's pretty good. Their on time delivery rate is actually 97.6%, which is fantastic. Their response time is typically less than three hours. You can even see how much they make in a year. So last year they made roughly about $330,000 or more. Their main markets are actually North America and it shows some other different services. So you can see they have minor customization and they have design-based customization. So if there's anything you wanna change on the products, you can reach out to them and they could possibly help you out with that. Now the last thing that I wanna show you is something that most suppliers on Alibaba should already have, but always double check and make sure. So right here where it says purchase details, make sure that it has the protection with trade assurance badge. As you can see, this seller has it and so does this one. This means, as I mentioned earlier, if there's any issues with your products, if the quality is not up to par five months instead of what they told you, maybe one month, then this is when you can reach out to Alibaba and you can rest assured that they will take care of you. Aside from that, just be vigilant. Make sure you look at all the different details of the sellers. Make sure you check out the details of the items themselves. And if the price for something seems way too good to be true, so let's say you're trying to drop ship a printer and the printer's being sold for $15, $20 when typically other sellers have it for $100, be wary of that and just do your research. Remember, a lot of the times, if it's too good to be true, it probably is.  Trust me, I had to look up some of these and I had to Google it because the first time I went on the website and I started going through it, I found a few terms that I was like, what? So let me go ahead and clear this up for you really quick. This shouldn't take more than a minute or two and let's go ahead and start with MOQ. What is MOQ? MOQ stands for minimum order quantity. That just means how many units of a particular item you have to purchase. So one product might have an MOQ of 10 while the other one might have one. And remember, we're looking for MOQs of one because we're drop shipping. We're not gonna be buying more than one because our customers more than like we aren't gonna be buying more than one. Next up, we have OEM and OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. This means that the supplier that you're sourcing your product from is the actual manufacturer of the product. Now, it's good when you find some OEM suppliers because that means you can actually reach out to them and see if they can make any modifications to the product or add some type of branding to it. The next one is OEM, which stands for Original Design Manufacturing. And what an OEM supplier does is they'll give you product ideas to be able to sell. So instead of manufacturing the products themselves, they'll just give you the different ideas for what you can sell and add to your store.  Does that mean that they're highly rated? Not necessarily. When a supplier is labeled a golden supplier, that simply means that they're promoting their products on Alibaba. So they're paying Alibaba to promote their products. So Alibaba is putting them on top of their list, on top of their search ranking and they're giving them a little badge that states that they are a golden supplier. Pretty much the same way when you run ads on eBay at C or Amazon, you're gonna see the promoted product on the top of the list. You can see they're gonna be number one or number two and you're gonna see something that says that it's an ad from the seller. This is pretty much the same thing except instead of directly saying that it's an ad, it's just gonna say that this is a golden supplier. Then you have IQC, which stands for internal quality control. This is the first step in quality control. This means that the manufacturer inspects the raw products before sending the products out to be manufactured into an actual item or product that you're purchasing. Next up, you have QC and QA, quality control and quality assurance. And what this means is that the products that you're sourcing or you're purchasing are gonna be up to quality and up to par to quality control standards.  Another term that has to do with quality control is IPQC, internal process quality control. What this means is the suppliers or manufacturers are gonna be making sure that everything in the production line is going as it should be. So they're gonna make sure that everything is of quality and everything is up to standard. Now let's talk about shipping really quick. When it comes to shipping, you have FOB. It's either freight on board or free on board. What this means is simply that the manufacturer is gonna ship your product to the nearest port to your location. Once the item arrives at the port, that delivery from the manufacturer to the port is gonna be free. Now when it comes time to actually unloading the product from the port and having that shipped to your customer, then that's when you're gonna have to pay for the shipping. And the last one that I'm gonna cover for this list is gonna be CIF, cost, insurance and freight. Now what this means is the seller is gonna take the responsibility of paying the shipping and the freight charges. So you don't have to worry about that. Now let's talk a little bit about payment options. So as you know, different suppliers and different companies, different websites, they all accept different forms of payment and Alibaba has their preferred methods.  From there, you can go ahead and pay that invoice or if you're dropshipping and you're simply just making the purchase, these are the different payment options that you're gonna have. So for one, you have wire transfers as well as online transfers. Of course, you always have the option to pay with credit and debit cards. Some sellers will give the option to pay with PayPal and you also have the option to pay through Western Union or a different payment processor such as Boledo. Now as a dropshipper, your best option for payment methods is gonna be the Alibaba trade assurance for the simple fact that it also has buyer protection service. Now that's everything that you need to know about Alibaba itself. Now let's go ahead and start dropshipping. So the first thing that we need to do is find a winning product. Now how are you gonna find winning products for Alibaba? Well, there's a few different ways. For one on Alibaba itself, you can go ahead and check out the best sellers or the higher ranking or top ranking. So if you're on the main page of Alibaba, all you have to do is scroll down a little bit and you're gonna find a section that says top ranking. Just go ahead and click on that and you're gonna see some of the best sellers on Alibaba. Now another option that you have is checking out a product's transaction history. So this is actually really cool because it shows you how many units have been sold of the particular product. So in this case, we're looking at an LCD touchscreen baby bottle steam sterilizer. Now how many have been sold because it only has one review. It's a five star review and it shows 12 different buyers. Now if you scroll down a little bit to where the description is, you're gonna see a few different tabs. You're gonna see the product details, company profile and transactions. Go ahead and click on that and then you can see how many different transactions have been made. So just looking at this, you can see that there's been a few different shipping destinations. You have the US, China, US again and Canada and how many pieces have been purchased. So this person bought 10, this one also bought 10, this one bought 12. Here they bought seven, going to Canada they bought 10 and you also have the different dates of when they were purchased. So if you have a product that has been consistently selling and recently has been consistently selling, then you have a pretty good product. You have a possible best seller. Now on that note, looking at the product page, if you keep on scrolling down, you're gonna see suppliers' popular products. So here you can see some of the best sellers from this particular supplier. So you have some leather car seat covers, you have a fruit slicer, a manual drain cleaner and you have a few other items that you can choose from. Now after you found the product or products that you wanna import to your store and you wanna start selling, then you wanna make sure before you actually import them to your store that you have a reputable supplier. And as I mentioned earlier, just look through the reviews, look through the seller themselves, look at the seller's rating and make your decision from there. If you see that there are trustworthy supplier, then go ahead and save those links, save those products because we are gonna go ahead and start importing those to our store. But before we import them, we need to figure out where we're gonna start selling. So are we gonna start selling on Shopify, Wix or WooCommerce, where we're gonna make our own websites or are we gonna be selling on a marketplace such as Etsy, eBay, Amazon or Facebook marketplace where all we have to do really is just list the different products and hopefully start getting some sales. Now honestly, at this point, it's really gonna depend on you. Do you prefer to create your own website or do you prefer to sell on a marketplace that already has organic traffic? Remember that there's gonna be pros and cons to each but primarily when it comes to having your own website, the biggest difference between that and a marketplace is gonna be traffic. So if you have your own website, people aren't gonna know that you're there. It's gonna be up to you to bring people to that website and start building up some brand recognition. Now how do you do this? There's quite a few different ways. For one, you can start advertising both free and paid. So you can start running paid Facebook ads or you can start making some content. So you can order one of the products and you can start simply making some videos, some fun, entertaining videos and posting those on TikTok as well as Instagram Reels and even YouTube shorts. Now obviously this does require a little bit of extra work on your part when it comes to the marketing. Now when it comes to a marketplace, then you really don't have to worry about marketing. You don't have to worry about people coming to your store because when somebody goes to eBay or Etsy, they're ready to make a purchase. So bringing in traffic isn't gonna be the hardest thing but one key difference between the marketplace and your own website is that a marketplace for the most part is gonna have some different fees. Primarily when it comes to transaction fees, they might be a little bit higher than they are gonna be for something like, let's say Shopify. Also when you're selling on a marketplace such as Etsy or eBay, the customizability is not gonna be as much as it is when you have your own Shopify store. All right, now we know what products we wanna sell and what platform we want to sell them on. Now it's time to actually start bringing those products to our store. Now there's a few different ways we can do this and usually the way people go about it is the manual way. So what you're gonna do in this case is you're gonna go to the product that you wanna import and you're gonna find the different images. So in this case, we're gonna go with this right here and all you have to do is right click and typically what you would do is right click and save as but as you can see, this has this little window over it where it zooms in. So you can't really save the image. So we're gonna have to scroll down and we can take our images from here. So just right click, save image as and you're gonna have to do that for all of the different images that you wanna add to your product page on your website or on your marketplace listing. After that, you're gonna have to go ahead and actually copy over the description. So right click, copy, go to your website or your marketplace and paste the description and then make any necessary adjustments. I suggest making adjustments because honestly six pieces heat resistant eco-friendly reusable baking and pastry tools set page plastic utensils sets via suppliers. Kangkai doesn't sound good. And on top of that, it shows the supplier's name. So just go ahead and change that. One easy way that you can do that is simply going over to chat GBT and just simply put, give me a product name for go ahead and paste the title and just remove this right here and let's see what chat GBT gives us. So the first thing it gave us was a bake nest eco heat six piece beige utensil set reusable baking and pastry tools, perfect. It sounds way better than after that you're gonna have to go ahead and check out the different details and the description for the item. And you can either put this as is. So just go ahead and copy and paste it which honestly it's not gonna look that good or you can once again just go back to chat GBT and put right this into a description. Typically what I like to do is I'll put the details in quotes and for the most part since I am in the US we don't go by millimeters or kilograms here. So at the end I like to put convert and replace millimeters to inches as well as kilograms to pounds and press enter. Now it gave me a similar description except it's a bit more structured. So it looks a bit better and it did change all of the kilograms to pounds as well as millimeters to inches. Now if you wanna make it a bit better you can also tell it to make it into an actual description. So write it as a written description. And as you can see it's already coming up with something way better than what we had earlier. So let's just read the intro. Introducing the kitchen utensils six piece utensil set. It must have for every home kitchen made from high quality plastic. This set includes essential baking and pastry tools that are not only heat resistant but also equal friendly and reusable. With its base color it adds a touch of elegance to your culinary space. And it gave us the rest of the details in paragraph form. So as you can see chat GBT really streamlines the entire process of writing your descriptions as well as your titles. And from here, once again we have to go ahead and highlight, copy and then just paste it onto either our marketplace or our website. Then we're gonna have to go ahead and add all of the different variations once again manually. So as you can see it takes some time if you're doing one, two, maybe even four or five it's all right, you know it'll take some time but ultimately you can get through it. But if you're doing 10, 15, 20, even a hundred listings then it's gonna get extremely time consuming and you're pretty much just gonna focus days on end just for product importing. Now let me show you how you can completely streamline the entire process to make it a lot quicker. So for this all we have to do is head on over to AdlDS and log in. And once we're logged in we just simply have to go ahead and click on add products. Now to show you I'm gonna be doing three different products. So in this case I'm gonna click on multiple products stores and I'm gonna go to the different products that I wanted to import. So I wanna import this culinary set. So all I have to do is click on the link and copy it over, press enter. Then I'm gonna go ahead and actually import the frother that we looked at, same thing, paste and enter. Then these headphones, copy, paste and then just click on add as draft. Now everything is gonna be copied over to my draft section. From there I can make any necessary adjustments before having the items go live on my store. As you can see this saved a ton of time. Now that we have all of our different products listed on our website we just got a sale and now we need to fulfill it. How do we do that? So now the same way that we did the importing to our products there's two different ways that we can do our order fulfillment. Well, three actually.  Now the other option is either automatic orders or fulfilled by AutoDS. What automatic orders is is pretty much an automated version of what I just said. So when you receive an order AutoDS is gonna go ahead and take those order details and it's gonna take the login details for the supplier of your choice. So in this case you're sourcing your items from Alibaba you're gonna go ahead and log into Alibaba through AutoDS. Then AutoDS is gonna go ahead and log into Alibaba on your behalf and it's gonna make the purchase using your credit card details or your banking details. After that it's gonna have the item sent directly to your customer and it's gonna update your customer with the tracking details as it becomes available. Now the third option is fulfilled by AutoDS where it's gonna do the exact same thing except instead of using your buyer account it's gonna use the AutoDS buyer account. So AutoDS has their own accounts for all of these different suppliers. So when it comes time to make the purchase your accounts are left completely untouched. Same thing goes for the payment instead of using your banking or your credit card details AutoDS is gonna use a balance that you top up. Now just like with product imports if you decide to do it manually it's perfectly fine especially if you do maybe two or three orders a day it's not gonna take a long time but when you really start scaling and you start getting 10, 15, 20 different orders a day then again it's gonna get extremely time consuming and most of your time is gonna be focused on just that. So when it comes time to actually scaling your business automation is something that can really help you out with that because it'll take care of all of the ins and outs of certain processes for your store which at the end of the day is gonna equal out to a lot more free time for you. Free time that you can use to either reinvest that time into your business and continue growing by adding more products, doing more product research or setting up different shops or time that you can simply use to just kick back and relax.
