AI Summary

This video explores whether AI can build a profitable dropshipping store from scratch with a ₹1,000 budget. The creator uses ChatGPT for niche and product selection, ad creation, website copy, and ad strategy, then tests the store with real Facebook ads. The experiment yields mixed results: one product generates ₹700 profit in a day, while two others fail, demonstrating both the potential and limitations of AI-driven dropshipping.

[00:02]
AI replacing jobs vs. creating income

The video challenges the fear that AI will replace jobs, proposing instead that AI can be used to generate passive income through dropshipping.

[01:39]
Five core pillars of dropshipping

AI must control five pillars: niche selection, product selection, ad creation, website building, and ad strategy. Weakness in any pillar can cause failure.

[02:21]
AI-driven niche research

ChatGPT is prompted to research Indian consumer trends and suggests five niches: home & office, spiritual, beauty, hair care, and pets. The top three are chosen for testing.

[04:20]
Product selection criteria

AI provides five criteria for rating products. The creator selects 10-15 products from Roposo Cloud and asks AI to pick the top three: gray hair cover stick, washable ceiling fan cleaner, and tally counter.

[09:25]
AI-assisted ad creation

AI generates ad scripts and voiceovers using ElevenLabs. The creator sources video clips from Instagram and YouTube, then edits them together to create ads for each product.

[13:15]
AI-generated website copy

ChatGPT fills in Shopify product details (description, benefits, etc.) based on screenshots. The creator pastes the AI-generated copy directly into the store.

[14:58]
AI ad strategy and budget

AI recommends a conversion campaign with broad targeting and a daily budget split: ₹400 for hair stick, ₹300 for fan cleaner, ₹300 for tally counter. Total budget is ₹1,000 per day.

[17:07]
Results: ₹700 profit in one day

After running ads, the tally counter product generates ₹2,400 in orders (3 units sold) with ₹300 ad spend, yielding ₹700 profit. The other two products get zero sales.

AI can assist in building a dropshipping store, but success is not guaranteed. One out of three products turned a profit, showing that AI's recommendations have potential but require human oversight and testing.

[00:02] it is taking away people's jobs. AI is just gonna [music] replace AI is Thanos, it will snap its fingers and magically all the jobs will disappear. Workers Due to AI. But if he is so smart then

[00:16] why are we not earning money by employing him ? This Way Instead of Taking Our Jobs AI Will Make Us More Money. Right? So that's why today we will ask AI to make us a 1 lakh per month dropshipping store. Where AI itself will do the product research. Chat what

[00:31] products has GBT launched. AI will create the website. Someone may say that this is AI and AI will also create AIDS. Brother, if there is AI then anything is possible. And hopefully we will sit back, possible. And hopefully we will sit back, relax and make a money. We placed orders in a day and made a

[00:44] relax and make a money. We placed orders in a day and made a profit of Rs. Let's die deep. See Guys I Know You might be thinking that man create a successful dropshipping store. So here is what I think.

[00:58] In this video we told AI to build a service business at ₹1 lakh per month. followed it and we made ₹50,000 in two days. If he can build a ₹50,000 service business in a tie-up city

[01:10] , I am sure he will do dropshipping because dropshipping is much easier. And now combine this with the fact that the last time I did dropshipping, I generated a revenue of ₹10,000 and

[01:24] understand dropshipping a little bit. So this time I think if we combine AI and my Gujju business skills, So this time I think if we combine AI and my Gujju business skills, And the good part is that majority of the work will be done by AI. So

[01:39] this can become a source of passive income for us. But to do this, AI will have to control the five core pillars of dropshipping. But if even one of these five pillars is not strong then our dropshipping store may fail. So AI

[01:53] needs to be very very smart in this. So let's start with our first pillar of dropshipping. Niche selection. The niche. If we enter the wrong niche where customers are not spending or are

[02:07] customers are not spending or are But if we enter the right niche where customers are spending more money then we can make profits. So it is very important to select a niche carefully

[02:21] and to make sure that we get the best of the best niches. We will ask AI to do a deep research about Indian consumer trends so that he can know where we should start our dropshipping store. Let's come to Chat GPT. C

[02:36] We will give this one prot. I want you to do a deep research on Indian consumers and tell me the most popular product niches. I want you to research behavior patterns, emotional triggers, etc. C Now he has asked some follow up questions.

[02:49] So we will give all these answers to it. You should read it well. And now we will read it well. And now we will ask him to start deep research. Come on guys, here are

[03:01] us to start dropshipping in. Number One Home & Office Supply. C research has shown that work from home has increased after the pandemic. And more and more people are demanding comfort while they are working. This makes sense because I've

[03:14] This makes sense because I've You might have seen it too. Freedo is one of the best examples that started only after the pandemic. And now they are valued at 100s of crores. Second is spiritual niche.

[03:28] What can I say about this, friend, there is no other country which has such a big market for spiritual niche as India. So I definitely think this will work. I mean, you just look at it, all these people are earning so much money. Third is beauty niche. This is

[03:40] also very popular in India. Mainly we are women like things because they have a lot of things to take care of like hair, makeup etc. And it sells a lot because confidence. And whatever gives you confidence, you are going to purchase it.

[03:53] So we will definitely try this niche also. Fourth is hair care niche. We will consider this in beauty only, beauty and hair care. And from this also we will definitely find products. And fifth is pet's niche. This also looks good

[04:06] Because we just want the top three niches and in that we will experiment and we will see which product gives us the most profit. Now with the help of AI we have finalized three niches. And now we will ask AI itself what

[04:20] is next? Pillar number two is product selection. Let's just put this prompt in and ask the AI ​​how to do product selection ? And it has given us some five criteria on which the product will be rated and from that we will

[04:34] select the best product. So now I have to search like 10 or 15 products and we have to give it to AI and on the basis of this AI will tell us which are the top three products that we should start testing today. To find these products,

[04:47] we will come to Roposo Cloud website because this is the most widely used platform for Indian dropshipping. As soon as you come to Ropozo, we will see a lot of categories like Potential Heroes, which means those which can do well, Newly Launched Hot

[05:01] Selling, Facebook Hot Selling, there are many categories in it. Then if we go further down then we will find gardening related, hair care related and all. So, we will go into the niche that we have selected and there are

[05:14] many products, so we will look at all of them and select a few options from each and see what happens. First of all we will start in beauty and start in beauty and hair care niche.

[05:29] This One Is Good at Sea Beauty. Lipstick set. See these are 2000 to 5000 sold. Meaning there will be good demand for it. And we can keep this as an option also.

[05:43] Electric Shaver. This is also sold from one to 2000. We can target both men and women with this. We can target both men and women with this. And I think this can work.

[05:56] problem. It's a gray hair dyeing stick. Meaning, if your hair is turning grey then you can instantly colour it black. And one strong sign is that 5,000 to 10,000 sold. Meaning the demand is very very good and hopefully you know this will also

[06:10] work. So what seems to be our criteria right now is that whatever are the highest selling products on Ropozo and whatever we find a little interesting, which we feel is solving some problem, we will select those. In this way,

[06:23] The Products That We Selected. And now we will give all this data to AI. And on the basis of whatever criteria we had discussed previously, we will ask the AI ​​to select the best three and tell us. All the images have been uploaded.

[06:38] select the best three and tell us. All the images have been uploaded. OK waiting for an answer. CCA has told us that these three products are good. Number one is gray hair cover stick. Ok? It is saying that you know solves a huge insecurity.

[06:51] It's a quick fix can also create strong before and after visuals in Reels. And solves an urgent emotional pain point. So I think we will keep this one as our first one. The second one is washable ceiling fan cleaner. Taps into the

[07:08] Household Frustration The upper part of the fan is not cleaned properly. So I think that's a good problem solving. Cleaning hack. It becomes a problem solving. Cleaning hack. It becomes a hack thing.

[07:20] This thing eases a difficulty. And you know it is a very relatable problem. Third is the telecounter. Meaning, when we chant, we can count how many times it has been chanted. I mean, in spiritual religion, you know it is a strongest niche in India

[07:34] and if there is something like this then I think it can work. Wooden is aesthetic and looks good too. And that's it, it's not a big problem to solve but if the religion is in the niche then it will be fine. Let's just take these three products AI has selected. I feel

[07:48] fine. I am not very confident about all of them. If this AI has made a wrong prediction then we will have a minimum loss of Rs 5000. So hopefully it works. Guys before we see, will these products generate passive income for us or not? I want to

[08:02] ask you just one question why are you watching this video? Because you want to make a passive income or a side income. Right? So that when there are ups and downs in your professional life, you can handle them. That is very smart of you. But not just

[08:15] professional life, you should be ready for any ups and downs in life. insurance plan. In my opinion, one of the best term plans that I have come across is Axis Max Life Smart Term Plan

[08:28] Plus. In this you get a 2 crore life cover starting at just ₹876 per month. And if you are a salaried person like most of you, you will get 15% off on your first year premiums. If you are a woman you get 15% off for lifetime. And if you are

[08:43] a salaried woman you get both. Well, financially it is good. But what I found even more impressive is that you get a 3% claim settlement guarantee for eligible claims and Axis Maxlife has a claim settlement ratio of 99.7%

[08:57] country. So while we move on to find out if we can make passive income or not. I Want You To Take Out 1 Minute Click The Link In The Description And Secure Your Family's Future. Because we should take insurance only when we are fit and healthy. When

[09:11] some problem arises, it becomes very difficult to take the right decision. So click the link in the description and let's move on to our next part that is AIDS. Guys the ads part is a bit tricky because AI will not be able to create the entire ad on its own right now.

[09:25] We will have to take some help from AI and whatever it could not do, we will have to do it ourselves. So let's see what a can do. Let's choose our first product gray hair coloring stick and add on top of it. C Now we will ask AI that in this hair

[09:39] product, what are the main pain points that this product is solving and what are the emotional triggers, tell us that. Ok? It revealed three core pain points. Now we will tell him that on the basis of these pain points, you select the first one

[09:55] and write an ad where there is only narration. Ok? So that will act as the voice over and we will pick up the clips later. Ok ? Hey friend, look, he starts doing extra. Hey, stop it brother. Don't give me any scenes. Just give me the narration and just

[10:12] the VO script. Okay, he has given this one. Looks a bit ok. Then we will tell it to revise that the hook should be a little stronger and we need to highlight the features of the product. And give a good name to the product which we

[10:27] can integrate into it. it has become. This is the final script. Now we will come to 11 labs and copy and paste it. If you are a new user then you

[10:39] get free credits which you can use. And we will use that and in some Indian voice we will give him this script and tell him brother, you generate this. After seeing the first clean hair, I felt as if I was becoming bad. Every time I see roots, I get

[10:53] confidence, then I found Cover Plus, a compact one which this our audio part is sorted, now what we have to do in the video part of the ad is that we have to go to Instagram and search for this product,

[11:06] we will download all the reels that have been made in it and we will move its footage here and there, we will add a little twist to it and we will make it on top of our voice over, so we went to Instagram, we searched for hair stick on Instagram,

[11:21] we searched for hair stick on Instagram, okay. The same product is not available on Instagram. Let's Try YouTube Shots. Ok ? Let's get to the YouTube shots. And on that we search something like grey hair coloring stick.

[11:36] You can search any similar term. Letts C. C This video is similar. It's the same product. Ok ? We will take this.

[11:49] And we will see how many more videos we can make from this. Ok? Look at this. This one is also the same product. We will download this also. Ok? Let us go. So all these videos came to us. Now we will go to the editing app.

[12:04] C, here we had already added the voice over. This is all the footage. That is the other ad that we have downloaded. What will we do now? We will shuffle these videos so that we don't look like exact copies. Ok ? First we will highlight the thing with a pen point.

[12:18] So we will upload such footage first where white hair is visible. Ok? Then we will gradually start adding images and videos of our products also. And then we will add the transformation. Meaning,

[12:33] we will put the black colored hair in it. So what happens? First we highlighted the problem. Then we told about our product and its features. And then we also told you the end result. You also have to follow this same formula. And we have

[12:47] created one ad for each of the three products. Right now we are not making much because we just want to C, these are the three AIDS you see. Seeing the first white hair, I wondered if I was becoming intelligent ? Every time roots are visible, confidence is shaken. Then I found Cover

[13:01] that covers gray hair in just 10 seconds, no salon, no hair dye. I personally like these aids. The main thing is the script, friend. So we have to hope that these scripts are good and people like them and purchase them. Well, this is done.

[13:15] Now let's talk about our fourth dropshipping pillar. That is website. No matter how good the ads look, if someone comes to the website and does not like it, they will not convert. He will leave it and run away. So that is a loss for

[13:30] us. Now we can do this also with AI. Chat GPT Method. As soon as we connect our dropshipping store to the Ropposso cloud, we integrate our product into it. After that we will have to fill all these details. Ok

[13:44] ? So You Can See All These Boxes That Is Given By Shopify. So we'll just take a screenshot of this. Then we will come to Chat GPT and tell him to and tell him to fill all these sections and

[13:57] give a good copy of it so that people get convinced to purchase. So whatever copy Chat GPT gives, we will paste it ditto to ditto. Look, this entire copy of this chat has been given by GPT. We will copy and paste all of this one by one into our

[14:14] given by GPT. We will copy and paste all of this one by one into our Our website. We have made this with the help of AI and some manual work. So you good. We don't want to make it too flashy or too complicated. As simple as

[14:30] you know come to our website and buy the product. That's it. So now niche selection, product selection, making the ads and making the website everything is done with the help of AI. We had to use our brains a little. Which is reasonable. That's

[14:44] enough for today. I am tired. Even two we have done very little work. Now tomorrow we will run these ads. AI will also decide how to run. And Let's See If That Strategy Works. Come on Guys It's a Few Days Later and

[14:58] Days Later and I bought a house with the money from drop shipping. That's a joke but I have shifted to the house so its setup is going on. Don't mind the mess. Now it is time to run Facebook ads and we will also get its strategy done through AI. So let's come to

[15:12] Chat GPT. C First of all we will tell Chat GPT what is the minimum budget I should keep for testing and how will we distribute that budget. Ok? So now he is saying that he will give Rs 800 to the hair stick , Rs 600 to the fan cleaner and

[15:28] , Rs 600 to the fan cleaner and Rs 500 to the tally counter. So that is around ₹2000. So I told him that friend, we don't have that much budget. A budget of Rs 1000 for a day is good. So I told him let's

[15:40] keep the total budget per day under Rs 1000 and he said a split of Rs 400 + 300 + 300 across different products. Equal. Then we asked him what type of campaign he wanted to run would be

[15:52] ? So there were three criteria in that. So he said first of all we have to make it a conversion campaign so that it increases sales. Then we have to so that it increases sales. Then we have to make it a You Know [ __ ] so that Meta can decide

[16:04] which ad to invest more money on if necessary. And whatever targeting will be there, he has said to keep it broad. Because Meta 's AI automatically decides what the targeting could be. So now AI has come in this also. So that's good. So let's just say AIDS is

[16:20] all over now. So now we have to go to Facebook's Ads Manager. And we have to do all that the AE has said. Ok ? So as soon as I went to the Ads Manager, it seemed a directly showed him a screenshot of Chat GPT and said, friend, this is what I can

[16:36] see. So what do I have to do next? So, we did it slowly, step by step, as told to him. Then when I was setting up the ad, I Then when I was setting up the ad, I

[16:50] told AI to write good copy and we directly copied and pasted it. The campaign is ready. The budget is 400, 300 and 300. Now we just have to publish it and hope that the AI turns out to be correct and we can earn a lot of money. Come on guys

[17:07] , the results are out. We placed orders worth ₹2400 in a day and made a total profit of ₹700. Let me show you the breakdown. So look at this Shopify account, there are

[17:20] orders for three products. All three have tally counters which are used in the warehouse. One guy placed one order and the other guy placed two orders. So in total we sold three products in two orders. We got zero sales in the remaining two products. Let's go

[17:34] to Facebook Ad Library and see. Look, only one order has been synced here. A sync has not occurred. So, technically, we spent ₹300 and got two orders and sold three products. So if you count, the

[17:49] and sold three products. So if you count, the cost purchase for one order comes to ₹150. Look, the other two have totally failed. 400 has been spent in one. 300 has been spent in one. And there we got zero sales. So that is a loss of Rs 700. But

[18:04] we will not count that. Because this is what happens in testing. Some products work, some don't. So if we count specifically the products of our telecounter, then we are in profit in that. So let me just give you the profit breakdown.

[18:17] Ok? So there are total three orders. One guy ordered two, one guy ordered one. So now this guy who has two orders, it means that he has made the purchase after thinking carefully and with high intent. So I think it will be delivered. This

[18:31] guy who gives an order seems a bit dicey because he has not mentioned his address properly. So I thought it would not be delivered. So if we remove that, let's assume that it is not delivered. Only two are delivered. Our revenue is ₹1600. Out of that

[18:44] we will subtract ₹300 for ad cost. ₹600 we will minus the product cost. So that is around minus the product cost. So that is around ₹900. So, together we are making a total profit of ₹700

[18:56] on this product. If we scale this product, we can scale this product, we can earn ₹1000-2000 profit per day, so that is good, we just have to scale it properly and you will test out more and more

[19:09] creatives. I will continue this and in a new video, I will probably bring an update on which direction my dropshipping store is going at that point, but according to the five-six day challenge that we did, I liked it a lot, even though we are

[19:25] not technically very profitable, but it definitely showed us that there is a possibility. AI reasoned well that this product will work, this will not work like that. So, out of the three products selected, one also worked. So that's a very

[19:38] win. AI made a good script. AI made a copy of the website. So for anyone who is thinking to start dropshipping. I think dropshipping is the way to go. And once you have successfully created an extra income source, the next step is to

[19:51] secure yourself financially. Secure your family financially. So for that click the link in the description and buy Axis Max Life description and buy Axis Max Life Smart Term Plan Plus.
