The Dropship Podcast

Jon shows exactly how he finds high-ticket dropshipping products with the help of AI and without relying on trends, AliExpress, or “winning product” gimmicks. This is the same system he’s used for years, updated for a world where AI now helps with the heavy lifting.

Instead of starting with a product, the process starts with the customer. AI is used to quickly identify real hobbies, real businesses, and real buying contexts and then narrow them down into product categories people are already searching for and buying right now.

He points out exactly where tools like ChatGPT and Claude fall short, why trusting them blindly leads to bad niches, and which steps must be checked manually. Competition levels, supplier quality, and brand structure still require human judgment.

This is not about single-product stores or flashy trends. It’s about building multi-category stores around branded, locally sourced products that can scale long-term. If you want a repeatable way to find products that can actually support a real ecommerce business in 2026 and beyond, this video walks you through the process step by step.

Building a real ecommerce business is not about hype or overnight wins. It is about what changes as the business grows. John shares what actually shifted as his dropshipping business scaled from $750K a year to nearly $8M.

Scaling required hiring, fixing broken processes, and evolving systems that worked at $750K but were not built for the next level. John walks through how the operation matured across Google Ads, SEO, email marketing, and conversion rate optimization, and how small improvements compounded into massive growth over time.

Personal growth mattered just as much as strategy. Better self care, clearer thinking, and stronger decision making directly impacted how John ran the business. The shift from solo operator to leading a multi million dollar ecommerce company forced growth on both the personal and professional side.

Here is what dropshipping income actually looks like when you build a real ecommerce business. We break down profit margins, operating costs, and what $500K, $1M, and $2M in revenue actually produce.

No hype. No lifestyle bait. Just the numbers behind high ticket dropshipping. Real products. Real suppliers. Real profit.

This model is not about viral products or cheap junk. It is about selling high ticket items with predictable demand, manageable volume, and buyers who are already searching to purchase.

Over time, skills compound, margins stabilize, and revenue grows. You are not just building income. You are building an asset. Are you ready to start?
