Dropshipping from $0 to $30K — Full Breakdown & Transcript

[00:02] this snake oil salesman's course?" I am a person who reads, but who does not perform [music] and that is because I am not responsible for my houses, for my life. And secondly, I can't seem to get around the idea of ​​investing in my education; if I paid you, I have to listen to you

[00:16] . Welcome, as every Tuesday, to total crackhead in Mexico in person, since I've come so you don't think they're my Mexican cousins, which a lot of people [laughs]

[00:30] who's going to tell a pretty cool story. You've also recently started billing and I think it's all still very much up in you hear a little baby noise in the background it's his little girl who's here with his wife

[00:45] [laughs] so don't take it seriously, okay? Don't be mean." Handsome, sharing your time and coming all the way here and who are you? How old are you? Where are you from?

[00:57] Well, uh, Mar, I'm Rodrigo, I'm 29 years old, I'm originally from a small state, I say small because here in Mexico it's very common to talk about that, the smallest and everyone who sees us will know that, it's the

[01:10] second smallest state. I work in hygiene there and I've been doing this for about two years, well, since I met you and I've been in training for a year. I think I 'm a very restless, very curious person, who has always been

[01:24] curious person, who has always been looking for something in life and with luck and the YouTube algorithm I found you. Thanks to the algorithm, we'll have to give him a commission. What do you do for a living? So, you're

[01:37] job? What are you currently doing? Um, I'm working as a production planner for a cosmetics company, and that's what I've been doing for the

[01:49] cosmetics company, and that's what I've been doing for the university. About a year or a year and a half ago, I started with dropshipping, just looking online for ways to generate income,

[02:01] Okay. Because? In other words, why do you decide to go online and search for how to make money from home or how to make money online? What was activated in your mind when I was very

[02:15] young? Well, I grew up in a house where there was never a shortage of food, to be honest. I am very grateful to my parents for that, but I always had that expectation in mind of living a full life. That's what I call it,

[02:31] freedom. That's my term, freedom. So I graduate from university and the first thing I insist on is studying because that will give you security. Study, work, and that's the best way

[02:44] you can create a fulfilling life, right? So I embraced that idea, I graduated from university and then I started working, luckily and thanks to my efforts and everything involved , I managed to get a very

[02:56] good job here in Mexico, I think it's very good, I feel it's very good. Well, where I start to open up, I had never left myself, I mean, my when I start to realize that things aren't what they seem. I mean,

[03:10] seriously, and then [sighs] I've tried thousands of businesses, Mar, I mean, I'm a restless person who read this Robert Kiyosaki thing in college and I grabbed it and said, "Why? What's with

[03:24] What does the second father do?" I'm a very restless person. So I started very restless person. So I started reading more. I'm a person who reads but doesn't act. That was my first mistake and I recognize it, and you know what, Mar, I mean,

[03:37] thank you for listening to you. Because it's the first time I've seen you in person in Mexico , because I've seen you on screens for over a year and I feel like I know you. I mean, the first time I heard you on YouTube I

[03:51] couldn't believe all the information you were giving because before this I followed Adrián, Adrián Sence. And then that was around 2024, around November, Mark, he uploaded an Amazon FBA video, but a few

[04:05] months before. So, it's funny, and after trying thousands of businesses here in businesses, but they were all haphazard, meaning nothing worked. I tried Amazon FBA, and it hit the point where I had to

[04:18] get a quote for a product and have it shipped from China. And then, obviously, I realized it wasn't so easy, that it was a huge investment that I couldn't make at that time. So I talked to my brothers and said,

[04:31] the first thing they tell me is, 'You're going to get scammed.' No, it doesn't sound. No, it doesn't sound scammed.' No, it doesn't sound. No, it doesn't sound good. Don't do it. And I decide not to go. Adrian, upload your video, I think it was 15, 14 hours long, and I really, really

[04:45] watched it from beginning to end, and that's where I started with your YouTube content. you uploaded a video, and there I was, taking notes on what we had to do. And then I just got married, I mean, happily married, I don't want to

[05:00] tell the story, but already married, um , I talk to my wife and I say, "Hey, you know what? Um, let's do this." And he tells me, "Okay, okay." And we started in November 2024 to record a product, but you know, Mar, I mean,

[05:12] bad lighting, we didn't connect with the client, I mean, yeah, some things that I just can't go on and I really see my first videos, Mar, and I can't believe it, I you have any we can show you? I have a lot of things.

[05:25] be seeing it on screen now so people can understand a little bit of what you said something very important, and I'm sorry to interrupt you, don't worry. You said, "I wasn't taking action." Because? I think he was

[05:38] with me. In other words, he wasn't responsible; he didn't understand that I So, when I started listening to you, Mark, I mean, I did that, and I

[05:50] first spark, the one that told me, "Holy crap, let's sell online. Yes, my wife, we were both so excited , we couldn't believe we had done it, and then They held the money, and then it all fell apart. And I

[06:04] back in March because I had given up, I had given up, I mean, I'm not going to lie, I gave up. I came back in March, and we tried a second product that didn't bring in and we tried a second product that didn't bring in much. I got about $400, which is

[06:17] Mexico. And that's when I told my wife, but it was in 2025, and I said, "You know what, my love?" I think I have a problem, and that is that I don't take responsibility for my homes, for my

[06:30] life, and secondly, I can't unlock the issue of investing in my education. That 's true because I was just looking for excuses to enroll in your course, and that's something I want to mention because I think, I mean, for the people who are

[06:42] watching, for all of us who have a block when it comes to investing in a course, I was fortunate enough to find you and to find a person who is real, who shares, and who truly wants to help. I don't know what

[06:56] repeated itself and I had found another person who wanted to sell me a course and who had sold it to me for 1000, 2000, 3000 € and was still going to on YouTube. So, I think that's the first breakthrough I had, the issue

[07:10] of investing. The second one was, "I'm entering the course, Omar, and I'm listening to you." And then I swear that in the first few calls, every time you talked about mindset, I was like, damn, again . I mean, really, the people who were really into the mindset at the beginning of the

[07:24] course were like, no, and I wasn't one of those people who would ask questions in the group, you know ? Hey, go look for it, no, I mean, no. but they were heavy, like maybe you weren't prepared to

[07:37] understand and listen to that kind of conversation, need to look for products, I need to record videos, don't talk to me about mindset, leave me alone. Of course, it's normal, it's normal. That thought

[07:49] you're talking about is the one I [clears throat] had, and honestly, I used to spend all my time on those mindset calls, like, "I have a job, working, and I'm wondering , I mean, I never watched any of them again. And then you said something that really resonated

[08:04] with me, something like, "You are the only one responsible for what happens in your life. If things go wrong, it's because you don't deserve it, you're not doing things right. It's that simple. If

[08:16] your product isn't selling, it's because you don't know how to do things and you 're not being responsible." And then, when that realization hit me, that's when I that realization hit me, that's when I said, "I think—because the

[08:29] first thing is, the belief—I think Mark is right." And then, when I started paying right." And then, when I started paying more attention to those earlier calls, the ones you mentioned, right? The fact that you help people,

[08:43] everything you mentioned is truly immense. I mean, thank you. I'm telling you , I didn't watch your mindset calls, and now I don't. I lose track of things and I review them twice. I

[08:56] review them twice because every time you say something, and I know it, and I think people in the community will tell you the same thing. You mention something, and some book has already said it, because I've said, I've already read in a book. I just wasn't taking action, and it wasn't until

[09:12] you told me that I understood I had to take action. That's where it all starts. I mean, that's where I realize that I have to be responsible, that I have to work, and most importantly, that if I

[09:25] paid you, I have to listen to you. Uh, it seems [laughs] it seems simple, but people don't do it. I mean, people pay me and they don't listen to me. I say, " Why are you paying me?" It doesn't make sense, but I understand that it's also

[09:37] yourself have gone through. So, things here, because otherwise I'll forget them, I'm older now, and my memory... No. training? It took a while. I found you in November

[09:54] less. Yes, September, more or less. Yes. the YouTube algorithm, you know ? So, I found you in ? So, I found you in November 2024, and it took me almost 8 or 9 months

[10:08] to understand that I have to invest in my education. That's when it happened, and I right. And what changed? Why did you say after 89 months this snake oil salesman's course?" The first thing that

[10:23] 'll tell you, was the first sale. That was the one that made me say, "You know this works?" Because everyone really listens to it, and I mean, everyone's like that everyone's in the social media loop, and it sounds cruel, But they sell us

[10:39] fantasies. I mean, I see a video, I mean, I go on—I don't have a had a personal TikTok or Instagram account, you'd go on a real one and it would show you the video of the guy who made so much money and is traveling

[10:52] everywhere. So, I think that's what made me develop expectations, and it sounds bad, but I think that's what made me sign up for the course in the first place. Expectations, it's normal. So I sign up for the course and bam, the shock hits, and it's not

[11:07] described it, it's not like I saw it online, and that's where I mentioned, where I just didn't understand—I mean, you just said it, it's so simple, it sounds so simple. And I, Mar, I watched

[11:21] analyze the people who have been in this forum with you right now, what they do differently, what makes them different, I mean, I didn't understand, and now that I I'm here, are you saying the same thing? [laughs]

[11:37] I understand? And I say, it's the same, so simple, which is what I call turning off my egocentric thinking, my beliefs, whatever you tell me, I mean, whatever you think it is. I turned off that thinking and said, "Well,

[11:52] Shimar managed to get me to sell something online without any course, so why am I not paying attention to her in a course that I paid for, and that's where everything changed?" But that only happened recently, I mean, it wasn't that long ago

[12:06] . I mean, I started your course in June and I was there all of June, a year since you started. Okay, it's been a year now and I've tried products like you wouldn't believe, I mean, and I was just talking about it with my wife

[12:23] and I was saying, "Hey, it was so simple to just listen to her at the beginning." I mean, there's something that worries me a lot, but at the same time it reassures me, which is that it's so simple that people It gets too complicated. So why am I

[12:38] worried? Because it's so simple that people shouldn't worry, I mean, overcomplicate things. I mean, look , missing the calls, they're lacking information. Okay, but they

[12:51] say on YouTube. Record the videos the way I say, set up the stores the way I say, do anything else and that first sale will come. You saw it. will come. You saw it. Yes. Then, if they're in the training, all they have to do

[13:04] is watch the training, listen to me, join the Yes, if they do that, everyone will sell. Whoa. [laughs] Yes, if they do that, everyone will sell. Everyone.

[13:19] I could have a 100% success rate. 100%. But what happens? What happened to you is that you join, you don't think is right, and that's where the Things get complicated. So,

[13:34] what you were trying to figure out about the people who were selling, what sharing with people today. Right. Right. So, that change is incredible because

[13:46] right? I mean, from what you're saying, you started the training, to start summarizing the business a bit , since you started the training, to this day, how much have you

[13:58] billed? Well, in dollars, yes, I can . In fact, the market I'm selling in, uh, and this is another taboo I had in my head, I mean, when I started, and everyone says it, "No, you do n't sell in Mexico or in

[14:12] Latin America, it's very complex," and no, I mean, my first sale was here in Mexico, and the product that gave me the money to start the training was precisely for the Mexican market, but when I started the training, I wanted to change that, again,

[14:24] I started with this taboo that no, you don't sell much in Mexico. And then current product I have, that winning product, I think I've had it for about 25 years , right? But that was from February, I mean, in February was

[14:37] February, I mean, in February was when I started to go viral a little and I say, the only thing I did differently was what you mentioned, I mean, I saw the training because I saw it, I mean, I don't know if I saw it in the second person because maybe I

[14:49] could have done that. [laughs] I saw the formation, I took notes and obviously I many, I have a special notebook of yours where I have all the information. Good, When I have a doubt about something, I usually

[15:01] find it there, then it's in the information. And that's how I realized what I was doing wrong, because I was going up, I mean, like I was on a transient, I mean, I was always on the same path. I would see the product,

[15:17] buy it, find out who the potential market was, who could make it go viral, and then I would start recording, and that's it . And then I did the same thing again, I did the same thing again. And then I do n't remember which call, I think it was

[15:30] a call in December, Mark, when you started talking about that, a mindset call, obviously, and then you said just that, why do they do the same thing? I mean, I already told them to try this, the phases for what and

[15:43] then I said, it's very true. Then I started analyzing the account and I that is, the product comes in here, it comes in here. Then I said, what am I doing? In other words, I'm not even paying him any attention . And that's when I

[15:55] Most importantly, I think. You changed and started selling. two sales came in. I told my wife, "My love, they wanted two sales and I say, here I give honorable mention to my wife, because I think that possibly if everyone saw her they would

[16:09] product is." [laughs] Oh, no. So, they can't see her. coming out, it's not coming out. But yes, I feel she is the one who Okay. Part of my success, I mean, and you

[16:21] also mentioned it in a call and now I confirm it. From a great woman, we have a great man. And then I see my wife and the truth is that my wife has helped me so much

[16:33] , she has been with me, she has gone above and beyond, and I think that's everything you gave, everything you teach in the course, everything you say, everything you talk about, everything you share with us, and I say, along with the support I have from

[16:49] viral, and yes, yes, definitely, 100%. And not only that, I fact that life changes. I mean, and I no, no, of course. Money takes a back seat; obviously, it's

[17:03] eat, but like I said, you, from what you being a different person is changing your life and it has nothing to do with money. So, to wrap things up, because the last thing I like to talk about

[17:17] 're talking about other things, it was $25,000 have you done anything else? No, I've done more. Well, in total I have about 30 and something, that is, after that product I understood

[17:35] yes, how it works, what you have to do, what you don't. So, about 30-something and it's Okay. Uh, before you scold me, I wasn't just chatting with my wife. Uh, the issue of work and the

[17:49] issue of time, uh, is very complex. This, most of the time I'm between being an employee, because I'm an employee, because I'm employed. Yes, he's just going to ask you that now. Yes, yes. In other words, the

[18:03] organization of my life between being an employee, being this dropshipper or being an entrepreneur or if that's what you call it and being a father is very complex. course it's there, we're just not going to show it. One out of respect for the baby and two

[18:16] out of respect for his wife and his offspring. Uh, [laughs] sure, you have a baby, sorry, you have a very baby baby, I mean, it 's only 4 months old, you're doing dropshipping and you're working so that later they tell me, "No, it's just that I [laughs]

[18:29] sorry to interrupt you." No, no, don't worry, Mari. And the truth is, it's real, I mean, I swear, I used to watch your interviews, like the Mingo interview, you know, being a dad, you know, you say, "How can he be like that

[18:42] , well, I mean, no, how can it be? How does he have time to be a dad, to be a husband, to be the master and owner of two little dogs that just came out, mean, it surprises me so much, and I say, and it was just excuses, I mean, they're just

[18:56] excuses because we do have time to sit down for 5 minutes and watch TikTok, Instagram, we do have time to go have a beer with his stopped doing it, I just know now that it's a priority, that's the

[19:12] reality, and really, I mean, my life has totally changed, I mean, and you already said it, it's not about money, it's about thinking, it's about, I mean, I'm bringing up so many emotions, so to speak, right? That, that, that

[19:27] you said a few days ago, right? You You said, "Money isn't the most important thing." And I didn't understand it at the time, and I was like, "But, well," I mean, you make a lot of money, so why would he

[19:40] important thing? And you said it, but I'm going to make as much as I need to possible. Right then, you bring up those phrases, and then comes the topic of enjoying life, enjoying the moments, and you

[19:54] were saying it, right? I don't remember which chapter you said it in, but you said, "Your happy moment now is going to have a Coke with your dad, with your mom at home, and the ." Exactly. Simply because we're focused on

[20:10] expectations, we don't enjoy them, and that's the reality. I mean, I my siblings, and with my wife and my daughter, and I was saying, "But I already have those moments because I'm so focused on things, not on what I'm

[20:25] because we're Focused on guilt. I always say, I have a phrase I really like, I don't know if it's from someone else, but I kind of made it up, which is that happiness isn't in the things you lack, it's in the things you have and do

[20:37] n't value. So we're all happy, and you might say, "No, Mark, I don't even have enough money to eat." Yeah, but you breathe. That is, you have something to be happy about today. Yes, you'd like to have more, like everyone else. You're in

[20:50] 've all been in bad situations. So, the valuing the things you have and not the things you lack, your life starts to be a happy person. And in the end, I think we're here; you do

[21:04] Well, maybe you do, but it's useless, but what you do take with you a happy person and having been proud. So, in the end , that's it. What you have to look for in this life. So, how

[21:20] Go ahead. For all those people watching, who have another job, are doing dropshipping, or are even parents, give them some advice, any advice you want. Ah, well, look, Mark, the truth is

[21:33] that I've met so many people in your course . The mentors are truly amazing. I mean, listening to someone like Javier, or Luis Samir, who I was talking to just a few weeks ago on call after call, listening to you, I think the

[21:49] best way to organize myself is to ask questions, and the best way to connect is to connect with a community. I mean, I was lucky enough to

[22:02] honestly, you meet people like you wouldn't believe, people who, right now, I mean, I do and you listen to that advice and you think, how closed-minded was I? I mean, how closed-minded was I? And even so, I still believe that despite Of

[22:17] everything, I mean, my tip, guys, is that I regularly have what you mention in all your courses. I have a whiteboard where I write down everything I do reached a point where I had that cognitive stress you were talking about just

[22:31] all these things and the reality is that you have them because you don't do them, I . So, I have a whiteboard there, obviously, to manage everything. And in addition to that, uh, I'm actually trying out what Javi, part of the group,

[22:47] Google Calendar thing, right? Yeah, no way, really. I mean, Google wake up?" "What time do you have to have breakfast?" She even gives me an daughter. I mean, sometimes it doesn't work out 100%, I admit that, but the truth is that I make the

[23:03] admit that, but the truth is that I make the deserve it after all. Of course, of course, of hard and earning a lot of money if you can't share quality time with your wife

[23:18] and daughter, you know? I mean, it's pointless . You gain one thing and lose another, no, it does n't make sense. So, would you say that, as advice, what you said before, is to stop making excuses and organize your time a little so you

[23:31] know what to do and when to do it, to have everything structured? And something you've said, but subconsciously, is to enjoy, enjoy what you have have an hour to be with my wife and daughter, to be at peace, even though

[23:45] incredible. If you had your past self from a year and a half ago in front of you, what would you tell them? Wake up . Wake up . [laughs] The truth is, I think a lot of

[23:58] people who watch us on YouTube—because I come from there, I was behind this camera, I come from there—I think a lot of people who are in this situation now need to hear something like,

[24:11] responsibility for your life is yours. That's the main reason. And the first thing I would tell myself is , stop wasting time on things , stop wasting time on things that aren't important, I mean, stop getting carried away, stop

[24:26] being in other places, and focus on your life, focus on what you want, and do what you have to do, whether you want to or not. I mean, there's another phrase of yours that I have, which is, "Things get done because they have to be done." It's that

[24:38] simple. You said it, "You're not rich." No, so you don't have a choice, do it in the No, so you don't have a choice, do it in the end. And just like that... The other thing you mentioned is, if you're going to do something, do it right, because ultimately you

[24:50] doing it wrong as doing it right. So why wear yourself out? It costs costs the same. So, I think those three things are what I would tell my past self: stop wasting time, focus, do things right, and

[25:04] enjoy it. Again, simple advice. I mean, you haven't said, "Oh, look for products here, open stores," no, you haven't said anything like that. You said something about focusing, stopping wasting time,

[25:17] and waking up, which is the bottom line after all. Thank you very much because happened to me and I have been in that position where you find a guy you don't know at all on YouTube talking about making money online without investment

[25:33] , then he wants to sell you a course and you say he's going to scam me, [laughs] he's going to scam me. So I am very grateful to the people who trust me, who come into the training, or even those who do n't come in but trust me.

[25:46] So, thank you very much for that. Thank you so much for coming here space with us, and for being so transparent and honest, because that's ultimately what I look for in interviews. And finally, is there anything we have

[25:59] n't mentioned that you'd like to comment on? Something that but I haven't said it. Well, the truth is, I mean, one, as I first time I've appeared on camera, so I do

[26:13] like it, I mean, I'm not going to lie to you, it's a unique experience. The truth is, if anyone is watching and has that curiosity about what it feels like to be behind a camera, and now with

[26:26] say it's that easy, it's simply a matter of finding out and doing it. I think it's a really great opportunity to have you here, to get to know you, to be able to thank you personally for all the things you've

[26:41] said that have helped me, and I also want to thank the whole community because the guys in group four are truly amazing. I mean, you answer with "I did this to him," and I think, "What do the rest of the people

[26:56] here say?" and you were just saying it, you don't go around pretending. I mean know anything. In other words, I don't know anything. Yes, indeed, yes. And I mean, I used to be a person who talked a

[27:10] lot, and you were just saying it, if people were charged for talking, things would be very different. So, that's the main thing, really. Learning throughout life, because that's the key, learning. Never stop

[27:23] learning. Javi, and I think you've said it too, if I had to choose between earning $200 in a day and learning something new, I would choose to learn something new. Now I understand, now I get it, and it

[27:38] books say so. The more you know, the more you are worth as a person and the more you generate. That's the reality, and I think that's generally how it is. Omar. I mean, I want to thank you personally, and thank myself, sorry,

[27:53] thank my family because I am truly very happy with my wife, my daughter, who are my support, and my parents and my siblings who I always carry with me. Thank you so much, King, for your

[28:07] heartfelt time. With your permission, I'll say goodbye to everyone and we're going to get some [laughs] Guys, uh I think this interview no longer only connects with Mexicans, but also with people who are

[28:21] working for someone else, who have a traditional, conventional job, and are looking for something more. And above all, it also connects with parents who I understand, I don't know because I don't have children, but I understand that life gets

[28:34] complicated when a child comes along, because the schedule, your priorities are different. I always say the same thing: if you want something, you have to pay a price. And I'm going to get a little sentimental and it's going to sound a bit harsh, but

[28:47] take advantage now that you've had that mental click, because maybe not just for yourself, do it for your family too. It's important to give your family what they deserve, what they would want, and that they never lack a

[29:01] plate of food; whether you want that or not is not important. So, since he started sell, if I remember correctly, with my YouTube content, right? anyone to pay me. I'm not here to deceive you and say, "No, if you don't

[29:14] trust me, you don't have money, don't my YouTube content, but start and listen to me because you're going to start selling. And if you already trust us, have capital, or are interested in

[29:27] students, having mindset calls, and much more, you have the installments month by month if you don't want to pay the money all at once, and above all, take action, stop making excuses. See you next time. [music] Co?
