Hey fastlaners,
I've been on this forum for a quite a while now and this is simply another attempt I made in order to start creating a small passive income for my future fastlane ventures. I'm currently looking for a job to start saving money but I would love to prove my parents wrong (they think I spend my days doing nothing and keep telling me to get a job as if it was the only way out in my case).
I've made an e-commerce website based on Shopify and would really appreciate your feedback on it. It's basically based on the idea of selling ''What's trending'' items directly to customers instead of them having to browse Ebay, Aliexpress, Amazon etc. I'm using the dropshipping method because it requires almost no budget and all of my current savings can go towards marketing.
So here's what I got : My website is called watchyourtrend.com and I've made one sale so far. I'm on Instagram and Facebook but Facebook groups are what drive the most traffic to the website. My posts can easily get over 100 likes in under a few hours and always bring new customers. Problem is, I have tons of visitors but also tons of abandoned checkouts. I've been trying to enhance the website since I've started working on it but no luck on that.
I've also been thinking of investing in an Instagram shout-out. I've found an account with around 64k followers and a pretty good engagement rate (10k likes and 200 comments per post) that is willing to charge me 20$ for a shout-out. Should I take it?
One of the methods I use is the ''free + shipping'' method which you probably have heard of. Does this look scammy to you people? I think the main reason people leave their cart is because of the ''hidden'' shipping fee they only see at the end of the payment (even though I clearly stipulate that shipping is required on my posts). Should I switch back to simply making the price 3x higher and offering free shipping? What should I improve on my site?
Thanks in advance
