Like I said, oversaturated products, that is a problem.
Oversaturated products won’t work, people become desensitized to seeing ads of the same products no matter how cool or popular it may be.
You can find a unique angle on existing products but when you’re doing Aliexpress dropshipping, I don’t think it’s the most effective use of your time.
There are so many products available.
Just pick something new and market that so even in highly competitive niches, you can find products that not many people are doing.
If one or two people are doing it, that’s fine.
They probably haven’t scaled to the moon yet or probably they won’t, ever.
So, just because one or two other stores are selling it, also promoting it, doesn’t mean you can’t do it.
What you don’t want is a product that has been advertised to death already.
So if you get into the dog niche, for example, and you picked the top product on Aliexpress for the keyword dogs, then yes, every other dropshipping beginners is going to try that and it’s probably not going to work.
