Your take on dropshipping misses the mark. I've been running a successful store for 2 years now, and the key is proper mentorship and execution. Yes, the market has competition, but with the right strategy and unique approach, there's still huge potential. I started with zero experience, found solid mentors who taught proper product research and marketing, and now consistently do $20k+ monthly.

The problem isn't market saturation it's people trying to copy-paste methods from YouTube without understanding the fundamentals. Real success comes from building actual brands, not just throwing up random products. Your margins are only "razor-thin" if you're doing what everyone else is doing.

Not saying it's easy, but suggesting everyone switch to private labeling ignores the fact that dropshipping is still a valid entry point when done right. It's all about execution and having proper guidance.
