Plus, if you decide to start a bluetooth speaker business, you can potentially expand into other verticals within the electronics niche in the future. For example, you can market smartphone cases and chargers to your audience, or expand even further into cameras and other electronics.
How to source your products
The easiest way to start a bluetooth speakers business is todropship them from AliExpress.Choose a dropshipping appfrom the Shopify App Store that allows you to dropship from suppliers and manufacturers with ease. You'll be able to import product images and editable copy, customize visual styles, and more. You can also process each order to ensure your customers receive their items and you get paid.
When it comes to picking which products to sell, you’ll want to consider which features are the most marketable. For example, some buyers might like the convenience of portable speakers. Others may want waterproof speakers if they’re planning to listen to music in the shower, at the beach, or by a pool. If you’re not sure where to begin, consider sorting products according to “Most Ordered”. It’s usually a safer bet to select products that have already been validated by the market.
How to market bluetooth speakers
Almost everyone loves music! So beyond audiophiles, there are a wide range of niches to potentially target. For example, you could market the same waterproof speaker as either the ultimate beach accessoryoras a party-proof speaker that’s perfect for college students. There are countless use cases for speakers, and plenty of niches to choose from. Just be sure to keep your chosen audience in mind when you’re building your brand and creating your store. You’ll want to ensure your logo, banner images and copy appeal to your target audience. There are many top electronic brands who sell bluetooth speakers so it’s important to build a professional and trustworthy storefront.
When it comes to advertising, you may want to considerGoogle Shopping ads. Most people who’d be in the market for bluetooth speakers would likely turn to search to find the best product to suit their needs. At the same time, you could also try a longer-term search engine optimization (SEO) strategy. Since there are a lot of big players in the niche, you might want to optimize your pages for longtail keywords. This means targeting very specific phrases that are likely to get a lower number of searches per month, but are also likely easier to rank for in search engines. For example, you might try to rank for‘best bluetooth speakers under $100’or‘best bluetooth speakers for the beach.’A combination of advertising mixed with SEO allows your business to make a profit early on while also working on a long-term strategy to increase organic traffic.
Business model
Dropshipping is a relatively low-risk business model, which makes it a great model for new entrepreneurs. You’ll only have to purchase inventory as customers place orders on your store, which keeps your startup costs low. The average AliExpress bluetooth speaker costs anywhere between $5 and $40. Depending on the product features and your brand, you can expect to sell bluetooth speakers for anywhere from $20 and $80. This would still be below market value, which means your products can be competitively priced and you can still earn a healthy profit.
