Looking Back at 2018 – 10 Things I’ve Done & Learnt

Looking Back at 2018 - 10 Things I've Done & Learn't - Lifestyle Flipper Blog

The Lifestyle Flipper blog has laid dormant for the last 12-months yet a lot has changed in between. Here’s what I’ve achieved & learnt in 2018.

It’s been over a year since my last blog post! Crazy how fast time flies by and how quickly things change.

It made me think about why I stopped writing these blog posts and to be honest I really miss it! I love sharing what I’m doing with you guys – what’s working, what’s not working and helping out as many folks as I can along the way.

But at this time last year, I knew I had to dig my feet in and really work hard to be able to achieve the goals I set for myself in my Business Growth Strategy.

How To Use Google Advanced Image Search To Find Product Images

This quick hack saved me hours (and $$$) from trying to remove my suppliers watermarked images.

If you’re like me you may have suppliers that have absolutely NO IDEA how to work with retailers.

Maybe they’re happy doing things the same way they’ve done them since 1993.

Supplier: Hey, we did by with a 4-page website then so we’ll be fine now, right?

Me: Ummm… Not really, no.  Continue reading

Shopify Shipping in Australia: How to Stop Losing Money on Shipping Fee’s

Shopify Shipping in Australia- how to stop losing money on shipping fees

Shopify is a fantastic platform for us Australian drop shippers however it’s lacking in one very important area… shipping.

Shopify, if you’re reading this, C’mon guys… you need to realise that sending a carton from Melbourne, VIC to Weilmoringle, NSW is way more expensive than sending that same parcel from Melbourne, VIC to Sydney, NSW.

It’s almost double the price!

So what are us Aussie Shopify users do to? Continue reading

Start Your Own Online Business: Matt’s 8-Step Guide For Beginners

This is my how-to guide for my friends and family and the people I meet who constantly tell me that they’d love to do what I do…but.

There’s always a BUT.

“But I don’t know where to start”

“But I’m not tech-savvy”

“But I’m not a business person”

I get it. It’s scary to truly put EVERYTHING you have into building something that can change your life.

It’s not for most people!

But for the people who are really determined to follow their dreams I’m 100% with you guys. I was at step 1 once upon a time too, not knowing where to start, who to talk to or what I needed to do. Continue reading

The Drop Shippers Guide On Setting Up Gmail For Your VA

Scaling your drop shipping store by outsourcing repetitive tasks is essential to ensure you’re building a long term asset for yourself rather than a job. One of the biggest things that you eventually should be outsourcing is customer service and sales support.

Customer service may consist of a number of channels. Most likely: phone, email and live chat.

Whilst it’s pretty straight forward to have someone handle your store’s email unless you have a good system in place things may often be done wrong.

But don’t worry… It’s completely normal to have 100’s of emails in your inbox. Most of us receive an email, open it, action it then forget about it. Continue reading

Entrepreneurs Depression: Overcoming My Own Self-Doubt

Before I quit my job and before I knew that all of the hard work would someday pay off I’d often have days and weeks of massive self-doubt.

These days I’ve learnt to overcome these thoughts – mainly through techniques like meditation and exercise and reading stoic philosophy. I’ll discuss a little later on here what methods and techniques I use to keep a clear mind.

Looking back though, I remember thinking “surely I’m not the only one who’s going through this”. I bet at least 80% of newbies just starting their entrepreneurial journeys have at some point felt the same way. Continue reading

How I Quit My Job and Moved to Thailand With My Family

Just a few weeks ago I celebrated the 1-year anniversary on my second drop shipping store. Over the past 12 months, that store has generated over $560,000 in revenue and almost $60,000 in profit. I cannot believe that just a few short years ago I was only dreaming of being where I am today! Continue reading

How to Get out of Holiday Mode and Back into a Good Work Routine

One week after New Year’s Eve was my first attempt of restarting the “self-motivation engine” after stalling dead in the middle of the road as soon as my family and I had left for our short end of year road trip.

We had a really great time away with our friends and their kids to a small beach town where there were no alarms, no looming project deadlines and for the most part, no laptops. (I couldn’t help sneaking in a few minutes checking my affiliate sales!).
