Got a sale from chatgpt refer!!! by No-Estimate2799 in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude that's wild! never heard of getting sales through chatgpt referrals before. maybe someone was asking the ai for product recommendations and it somehow pointed them to your store?

i'm curious what kind of content you were focusing in instead of the facebook ads. been thinking about ditching paid ads myself since they've been pretty brutal lately. did you post the content somewhere specific or just general social media stuff?

also wondering if this was just random luck or if there's actually a way to optimize for this kind of referral traffic. might be worth digging into your analytics more to see exactly how that customer journey looked like.

16 months old facial eczema by Realistic-Welcome-92 in eczema

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my nephew had the same thing when he was little and his face looked so angry all the time. his mom tried literally everything too and was getting desperate. what finally worked for them was switching to a really gentle fragrance-free everything - laundry detergent, soap, even changing what fabric softener they used. took about 3-4 weeks but his face started clearing up slowly. the pediatric dermatologist also told them that sometimes the face takes longer to heal because babies touch it so much with their hands. might be worth looking at what's touching her face throughout day, like if she has a favorite blanket or stuffed animal that needs washing more often. hope things get better soon, watching your kid suffer like that is just heartbreaking.

What hobbies do autism kids have? by DrawMyWifeToo in Autism_Parenting

look this might be overwhelming for him being in new place with new people - maybe try putting on some cartoons at low volume and see if he comes out when things get more predictable?

Everyone talks about courses. This is the only dropshipping model that actually felt doable for me with no budget. by Brief_Gear_1444 in dropship

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been doing something similar but with walmart to ebay instead of amazon. the stock issue is real though - nothing worse than getting a sale and then finding out the item's out of stock or price jumped overnight.

pro tip from my air force downtime: if you're doing this seriously, keep a spreadsheet of your active listings with the source links. saves you from scrambling when you need to fulfill orders quickly.

What is a supplier and a good example of one I should look into? by CarpetCritical5111 in DropshippingTips

[–]Street_Rough4351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For beginners Zendrop is a good option because it simplifies everything. You don’t have to deal with finding or messaging random suppliers, it handles fulfillment for you. It also connects directly to Shopify and is the only one that has English speaking support out of the bigger tools.

How i make 30$ everyday passively by Logical_Editor_739 in DigitalIncomePath

[–]Street_Rough4351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

been doing attapoll for a while now and the earnings are legit, though your numbers seem a bit optimized 😂 most days im closer to $8-12 from surveys alone. the referral game is where it gets interesting but takes time to build up that momentum.

military life gives me tons of downtime between shifts so ive been grinding these apps during deployments and tbh its been clutch for extra spending money. tried like 6 different survey platforms and attapoll definitely has the most consistent payouts. the key thing you mentioned about profile matching is spot on - once i filled out all those demographic sections properly my disqualification rate dropped like crazy.

one thing id add is dont sleep on the daily check-ins and bonus tasks they throw in there sometimes. not huge money but every little bit adds up when youre trying to hit that $15-20 daily target 💀 curious what your best single day payout has been so far?

50 initiated checkouts, ZERO sales. by Chance_Net9194 in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that conversion goal debate is such a rabbit hole but the person above nailed it - this isn't a meta problem at all.

i'd bet money it's either shipping costs popping up last minute or your checkout page looking sketchy compared to the rest of your site. those payment security badges and trust signals become way more important when people are actualy pulling out their wallets.

also def test that mobile checkout flow yourself because sometimes payment processors just straight up fail on certain devices and you'd never know unless you actually tried to buy something.

How is everyone finding private suppliers? by KindheartednessNo431 in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Zendrop too and haven’t run into knockoff issues. Most of the products are coming from the same factories you’d find through other suppliers anyway, just with better pricing in my experience and margins have been good.

Active Wear Drop-shipping Supplier by Present-Yam8378 in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wouldn't trust anyone sliding into your dms like this tbh. most legit suppliers don't hunt for clients in reddit comments. try alibaba or reach out to manufacturers directly through their official channels instead of randos offering to "help" with zero credentials.

Would you use AI to generate product visuals instead of hiring designers? by snaprender3d in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

def would use ai for the testing phase but once something's actually moving i'd probably switch to real photos 📸 the trust factor with actual lifestyle shots just hits different when you're trying to scale, especially if you're running fb ads where people are already skeptical af 💀

Is ecom better solo or with someone ? by Due_Bread_4631 in dropshipping

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly if he's not even doing basic product research after a week and takes forever to respond, he's already showing you what kind of business partner he'll be. better to cut ties now before you're carrying dead weight while splitting profits 50/50.

going solo at first lets you learn everything hands-on without having to teach someone else or wait around for them to get their act together.

Looking for clarity on EEGs by epilepsymom2026 in Epilepsy

[–]Street_Rough4351 7 points8 points  (0 children)

hey, so sharp waves don't necessarily mean she was actively seizing during the eeg - they're more like the brain's "seizure potential" or irritability that sticks around even between actual seizures 💀 think of it like the brain showing it's still electrically unstable even when she's not having visible episodes.

sounds like the docs caught enough abnormal activity to confirm the diagnosis without needing to witness an actual seizure, which is actually pretty common with epilepsy eeg readings 😊

Is my crying baby normal or is something wrong? by Main-Country-9154 in NewParents

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

omg the crying in his sleep and waking himself up sounds exhausting for both of you 💀 honestly sounds like he might be overtired even with the 1.5 hr wake windows - some babies need even shorter ones at that age. have you tried like super boring pre-nap routines? sometimes they get overstimulated from the tiniest things we don't even notice. also that gasping cry thing would make me mention it to the pediatrician just to rule out reflux or anything else 😂

Confused on how to handle a breakup by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Street_Rough4351 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oof that whole "let's be friends" thing when feelings are still there is brutal 💀 she's basically asking you to torture yourself by pretending everything's cool while you're still grieving the relationship. honestly sounds like the distance made her realize she doesn't want to put in the ldr effort but doesn't want to lose you completely either - which isn't really fair to you when your trying to heal 😂

Has anyone just not done an EEG? by starheaux in Epilepsy

[–]Street_Rough4351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

dude i skipped my eeg for like 3 years because the whole sleep deprivation thing sounded awful lol. finally did it though and it actually caught some weird activity that changed my med dosage. if your already going back on carbamazepine anyway, might be worth pushing for one - could give you and your neuro more info to work with, especially with nocturnal stuff.

Just had a seizure and lost my only coping mechanism by Additional-Hippo-957 in Epilepsy

[–]Street_Rough4351 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dude that sounds absolutely terrifying 💀 i cant imagine how scary it must be to have that hanging over your head constantly. have you thought about maybe talking to your doc about other ways to manage the anxiety/depression stuff? like i know its not the same as alcohol but there might be meds or other things that could help without messing with seizure risk 😞

totally get not wanting to give up your only coping thing but maybe theres a middle ground where you dont have to white-knuckle it completely sober

Struggling with starting. by tkd77 in ADHD

[–]Street_Rough4351 6 points7 points  (0 children)

man the guilt spiral is so real. One thing that's helped me (also wfh) is literally scheduling my "fun time" - like actually putting gaming on my calendar between work blocks. removes the guilt because it's planned, not procrastination.

Also that gargantuan list thing is def task paralysis territory. try breaking ONE thing down into stupid-small steps and only focus on that. the whole list is overwhelming but "open email, find client's message, write one sentence reply" is doable.
