shopify should add a feature where if you haven’t had a sale in 6 hours it temporarily hides every button that lets you redesign the store

for our own safety

I first heard about dropshipping in 2016, when I was 19 and in college.

I was fascinated by the idea of selling products online, especially in the US. But I had no money to start. All I could do was watch YouTube videos and dream about it.

I moved to Baroda, India, for Studies and was in collage while I started a job at ETECH, earning just $257/month. I worked there for a year, but life had other plans. My mother passed away, and I had to leave the city and return to my hometown.

I didn't give up.

I convinced two of my friends to invest ₹1 lakh (around $1,000) to start an Indian e-commerce brand. We started running TikTok ads and getting some really good orders.

Then came 2020.

The day before lockdown, we shipped our highest number of orders ever. But after lockdown, almost all our products came back as returns. We suffered huge losses and eventually had to shut down the business.

It was heartbreaking.

I decided to start over and began working with my friend Ajay, who already had a successful app. He hired me for ₹10,000/month (around $100). I learned everything I could from him.

Eventually, I developed an app based on a similar concept. Ajay believed in me and even bought my first app for ₹6 lakh (around $6,315), giving me the confidence to keep going.

I built another app, and it started generating $500–$600/day in revenue.

A year or so later, I partnered with my long-time brother Munaf, and together we scaled our apps to $3K–$5K/day in revenue.

We're still in the same business today, and I'm grateful for everything we've built.

But that's not all.

In 2025, Ajay and I started another venture together: a gym.

In just 1.5 years, we've grown it into what we believe is the best gym in Jamnagar, with 500+ active members. Seeing another business grow from scratch with someone who believed in me has been an incredible experience.

But deep down, there was always one dream I hadn't fulfilled.

I still wanted to build a dropshipping business in the US.

For years, it stayed in the back of my mind. For the past 1+ year, I've been seriously trying to make it work.

I've spent over $6,000 on ads, tested countless creatives, struggled with failed campaigns, questioned my decisions, and had days when I felt like giving up.

But I kept going.

And yesterday, something happened that might seem small to many people.

I crossed my first $500 in sales in a single day.

Not $500 in profit. Not even close. But $500 in sales from a business I've dreamed of building since I was 19.

And honestly, that feeling is hard to explain.

From watching dropshipping videos in college without a single dollar to invest, to finally seeing my own US store generate $500 in a day.

I'm 29 now, and it took me almost a decade to get here.

I know there's a long way to go. I know how difficult scaling profitably can be. But for the first time, I feel like I'm getting closer to something I've wanted for so long.

The goal is to turn this into a $100K/month business.

Hopefully, Q4 is the beginning of something special.

I'm not there yet, but I'm proud that I didn't give up on the 19-year-old version of myself who had nothing but a dream.

Here's to everyone building something quietly, failing repeatedly, and still showing up.

Never give up on the dreams you had when you had nothing. ❤️ @ANK260199

I think I finally found a winning creative. 🚀

But now I’m wondering if I’ve created another problem for myself.

My Meta ad account is based in India, with IST as the account timezone, but I’m running ads primarily in the US/Canada.

So there’s roughly a 9–12 hour timezone difference.

My concern: when my audience is most active and Meta would ideally want to spend more during the US evening/night, my account is already in the next morning.

Could the account timezone actually affect how Meta distributes spend throughout the day?

If so, what’s the proper way to solve this without messing up a campaign that’s already working?

Would love to hear from anyone who has scaled US campaigns from an Indian-timezone ad account.

@dtcaileen Also my ATC campaigns do fine, llower cpms.

[Nitin Singh @starishiny11]

@dtcaileen I hate my purchase campaign cpms they are always too high and never get me enough clicks to know if the product is good or not. I don't feel it's the creatives anymore.

[Nitin Singh @starishiny11]

@Ecomnurse Mu native ads never get a single ATC ,no buying intent CPC are super cheap...

[Nitin Singh @starishiny11]

@lukasenECOM Do you change the pixel? When testing another product?
