Purple Ocean Entrepreneurs - My Dropshipping Journey

Hey hows it going everyone, this is Van and welcome to Purple Ocean Entrepreneurs.

Now, I kinda want to start off my first episode kinda being raw and open and just letting everyone know who i am and how i got started...

So, it all started when I was in highschool back in [2009], it was my last year and well... i didnt really have the grades or motivation for life. I was a typically C- and c's student and well i was barely passing.. I didnt really know what i was doing with my life, my goal was just to save money and save up and hopefully i would be rich like that. so that was about 10 years ago. And really... I struggled to find any work, and everytime I got hired, I realized that that I hated my job and wanted to find something else to do. It really seemed like all my friends & family was getting ahead to me. They was all getting a new car, new house, new job, and I was still stuck in a place like I was 10 years ago...

So while all my friends was out partying I was at home, searching how to make money online because i saw all my other friends making a lot of money online but they never really helped me or showed me the ropes. Well except for one person who kinda helped me, but I didnt really want to bother him that much, So I kinda just figured it out on my own..

I thought to myself that if they can make it, why can’t I?

So while I never really got a job, I will be at home all day trying new stuff from seo, to affiliate market to blackhat stuff and whitehat stuff which I made some money but never really took off.

So one day, I was like ok I’m just going to try this job thing but every morning when I had work I wanted my boss to just fire me so I didn’t have to wake up and work for them. My first job I ever had was a placed called shoe warehouse, and I LITTERALLY thought it was a warehouse because I hated to talk to people or wanted to be seen. I felt extremely embarrassed because all my friends were making a ton more money then I was and it seems like they all was going somewhere in their life. This was something I don’t share a lot of the time, it really wasn’t just about the money, I wanted to feel like a man and that I can take care of myself, that was just a desire I had.

So, the reason I wanted you guys to listen to this podcast is because... I believe i am a marketer by trait.

So fast forward years later, after quitting my job and having to move to toronto where I started a new life.

Well about a year has gone by and i was working for a little bit doing some marketing stuff, and well that company kinda closed down so I was back to where I started...

The funny thing was,

I was living at my friends basement and well, i couldnt really afford to help pay rent.

I remember stealing some toilet papers from my friends mom and well... she got pissed and thats when I realized that I needed to change, or else I would never become a man.

So now I had two choices...

Find a job, and hate every single second of my life...

Or try to get this online thing to work

So because,

I understand that in this online game, the best way to make money, is to model what works. This will be the core message because What works was the reason why I finally able to never work for someone else anymore.

So I started taking these new supplements regularly because it was recommended by a friend of mine about 2 weeks ago, and I noticed a very big difference. I used to take a lot of other supplement because my younger brother used to work at popeyes supplements and he would always bring home a few supplies each month.

So the reason why my brother loves the supplement business is because one day it was late at night around 9:30 pm and it was one hour till closing time. He told me one of his customer came in, and he just seemed kind of lost and was looking around the store. So my brother came up to him and asked him if he needed any help. Well turns out that he was kind of depressed and was looking for help. Well they talked and talked pass closing time and my brother finally recommended him two types of berry drinks I cant remember what it was called on the top of my head. But months later, that guy that came back in the store and he told my brother how much his life has changed. He bought his wife and kids and they all thank my little brother. Well that day my brother decided that instead of just being an employee at popeyes he actually wanted to make a difference in someone life, because that’s the real reason why we do what we do right? 

Now I never really felt much difference but since I started taking these new supplements, my focus and the way I write has completely changed. I feel like I can almost come up with the right words to say even before I write or say them out loud. I have a lot more energy, Im a lot happier, my work get done twice as fast and its still only 5pm at the moment. I usually wake up around 12 pm on days that im drinking or partying because I would be hung over the next day. 

So one day, I decided to experiment and binge drink in the morning with these supplement because it said that it would protect the liver. So I decided to drink alcohol in the morning for a full 16hour and the next day, I felt completely fine. I was still a bit tired but I can get out of bed and still think and do my daily task. 

Many of my friends know this about me, but if this is the first-time you guys are here, I just want to say that my health and diet condition was below average. I used to weight around 95 pounds when I was in grade 8 till about grade 11 I actually I think the smallest kid in school. It was very hard for me to gain any weight during my high school. It wasn’t that I never ate, its just that I was never hungry. I think the most I ever weight was 135 but I had to take weight gainer and I gained so much weight that, now my body looks really dysfunctional. 

So I want you guys to think about this in your business.

There are two type of buyers 

They are called

Recently buyer. 

Lets take weight loss for an example. Anyone that purchase yesterday is someone that is still planning to lose weight compare to someone that purchased a year ago.

Now the funny thing is I remember when it was new years and one of my goal was to gain muscle. So that week, I decided to join a gym, purchased a bunch of work out clothe, and guess what happen in two months later. I got back to where I was before my new years resolution.

You see when someone purchase something recently they are willing to commit. So your job is to find those customers and guide them so they actually see improvement!

And now the other type of buyers is

Frequently buyer – these are your favorite type of customer. They don’t care how many course there are out in the world, they just want to keep buying because it’s the next hot thing. 

You cant hire everyone that is willing to pay you in the beginning of your business.

You will realized that you hate some of your customer and the only way to turn your customer into dollars is if they have the same mindset as you.

My origin story, and how I got started on my internet lifestyle.

I will share my struggle and how I overcame everything and what I will do from now on to get to my first million.

As every entrepreneur we are stuck in trying to find the next big thing. We keep hearing whats working and whats not, and so we keep jumping from one thing to another. 

And it seems like its a never-ending cycle.

So in my first episode, I realized that its time for me to just start a podcast, and show my journey along the way.

This podcast will be raw as shit and I will show what I learn along the way.
