Hi Andrew. I find your content incredibly informative as a South African viewer. I would love to see a video on some of the challenges you have faced and overcome as an entrepreneur in the ecommerce space, and some of the skills you believe to be most valuable for someone looking to move their business online.
Using a provider like airpool, what is the average shipping time when buying from a supplier like Alibaba/AliExpress? As I would like to start a dropshipping store but the shipping timelines always put me off
What do I need to do when they request for pdf and images as additional info? And the info about the shipping company is highly appreciated. Do they only work in China?
One thing I don't get - when you have added your offer from the takealot catalogue, why do they not give you an edit option ie, to add in your own images, description etc? Is there something I'm missing? hope you can answer and tnx so much for all the info you have provided on UA-cam thus far.
Good question. They basically want the product to be set. If there are returns 7 months later they want to know what was sold to the customer. You can only edit the product by submitting a edit request.
But how do you calculate duties and taxes? I wanted to buy barb wire from China and put it on a container but I couldn't understand a single thing about shipping. They mentioned things like fob etc. I also can't calculate duties and taxes. Would you do a video about that please
Why not give airpool a try! bit.ly/3NgFh6w

Keep up the good work
Thank you very much!

Great idea will do so
Hi Andy do I have to have resell rights if going for banded products
Not so important in SA but it could come eventually. Amazon is strict with this.
Thanks
A pleasure 👍
Do you import with Alibaba?
Yes. Mostly.
Can they deliver straight to the Takalot warehouse?
Negative
