Dropshipping 2025: Worth It or Waste? Seeking Professional Tips & Solutions

Hello everyone,
I’ve started international dropshipping using CJ Dropshipping and set up a generic store under my LLC. The store is running, and I’ve run some Meta ads, but unfortunately, I haven’t made any sales yet :pensive_face: . just spending money on ads. Is dropshipping still a viable business model in 2025? Is anyone here with professional, hands-on experience willing to share real strategies or insights? Please, no course sellers.

Also, I’d love advice on these questions:

  • How do you determine which products are most likely to convert internationally?

  • What ad strategies are working for you currently, especially with rising CPMs?

  • Any tips for optimizing websites or product pages to increase trust and conversion rates?

  • Is it better to target single-product niches or build a larger branded store?

  • What platforms (besides Meta ads) have you found effective for traffic and sales?

  • How do you keep up with supplier reliability and fast shipping for global customers?

Thank you in advance to anyone who can share their experience!

A big, if not the biggest issue, you and anyone else are facing is the simple fact that you need to have a proven product that sells. If you don’t, then you’re always going to end up putting money into the FB Ads hole, with zero return.

I’m sure you are aware of this, and most likely already think you have the above-mentioned covered.. But do you really? If your product is good, and shipping time is decent and all the other standard requirements are acceptable, then I’m thinking you will always come back to the product selection. It’s literally THE most, and ONLY metric that matters.
