How To Price Dropshipping Products | Shopify Dropshipping Tutorial

📚 What This Video Covers

1️⃣ How to Calculate Profit Margins on Shopify


Learn exactly how to calculate your true profit per sale using Shopify’s fees and your sourcing costs.


✅ Example breakdowns show you how to go from product cost → fees → profit, so you know your real earnings before ads and operations.


✅ Pro Tip: Use the ZIK Item Finder to instantly calculate profit margin and ROI for any product and supplier — no manual math needed.

2️⃣ What Profit Margins to Aim For


Discover the ideal markup depending on your traffic strategy:

  • Paid Ads Stores: Price at least 3× your sourcing cost to cover ad spend and still profit.
  • Organic Stores: Aim for 2×–2.5× markup for strong profits without paid ads.
✅ Insight: When a post goes viral, lower the price slightly to boost conversions and move more units fast.

3️⃣ How to Find the Best Selling Price with Real Data


Use ZIK Product Explorer to compare real prices from successful Shopify stores.


✅ You’ll see which price ranges actually generate high sales — so you can price confidently based on market behavior, not guesses.


✅ Example: “Jellyfish Lamp” selling between $39–$49 performs best — showing the perfect sweet spot between profit and demand.

4️⃣ How to Raise Prices Without Hurting Conversions


Find top stores charging more for the same product and study what makes their listings work.


✅ Use Store Sales Tracker (Spy icon) to reveal their structure, theme, visuals, and branding tricks.


✅ Key upgrades to justify higher pricing:

  • Create a one-product store with focused branding.
  • Use a dark theme + motion visuals (GIFs/videos) to elevate perceived value.
  • Strengthen your logo and storytelling to boost trust and “wow” factor.

🎯 Watch This If You Want To:

  • Master profit-based pricing that works with both ads and organic strategies.
  • Discover real, data-driven price points that convert.
  • Learn to raise prices strategically without losing sales.
