Dropshipping Success

• 00:00:50 Mikey, an introvert, chose dropshipping as an online business model due to its flexibility and lack of sales pressure. He made $1.1 million in revenue, but after accounting for costs and mistakes, his profit was lower. He currently has a bet to have $1 million in his bank account by the end of the year.

Organic Dropshipping

• 00:02:45 Mikey practices organic dropshipping, marketing products through platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube to achieve virality and drive traffic without paid advertising. He focuses on creating content that resonates with a broad audience, using humor and relatable experiences to capture attention.

Dropshipping Is Not Dead

• 00:08:43 Despite prevalent negativity, Mikey believes dropshipping is far from dead, emphasizing that it requires a lot of work and understanding how to adapt to changing trends and platform dynamics. He sees success as a result of consistent effort and developing skills, rather than relying solely on luck.

Product Selection

• 00:28:26 Mikey identifies the Tik Tok Shop as a valuable tool for finding potential products and uses a 'burner method' to discover trending items. He believes custom products provide longevity in organic marketing due to reduced competition. He highlights the importance of understanding the target audience and tailoring content to their interests.

Daily Routine

• 00:22:23 Mikey previously followed a strict routine of waking up early, working out, and dedicating his day to filming, editing, product research, and content planning. He emphasizes the need for a strict content calendar to ensure productivity and highlights the importance of accountability partners in maintaining consistency.

Organic Marketing in 2025

• 00:17:03 Mikey anticipates it will be increasingly difficult to go viral on platforms like Instagram and TikTok in the future. He emphasizes the need for creators to adapt to platform changes and find solutions to challenges, which will differentiate successful individuals from those who don't succeed.

TikTok Shop

• 00:36:42 Mikey believes TikTok Shop is a burgeoning opportunity that is likely to grow significantly. He emphasizes the need for US/UK identification for access and highlights the use of affiliate programs and 1% commission methods as ways to participate, even if outside of the supported regions.

Screen Time and Value

• 00:39:16 Mikey emphasizes that screen time shouldn't be wasted on mindless scrolling. He encourages viewers to analyze content they see and learn from successful creators to improve their own strategies. He contrasts this with the typical mindless scrolling behavior that benefits platforms and brands, not the individual.

Beginner's Strategy

• 00:52:09 Mikey advises beginners to focus on making their first $10,000 in pure profit within six months by copying successful competitors' content, testing 3-5 products, and developing their skills. He suggests starting with a budget of $200 and emphasizes that those who complain about not having funds are simply not motivated enough to succeed.
