Before we dive into your business strategy, could you please introduce yourself?
Hello, my name is Janiyah, and I’m so excited that I found Sellvia!
It’s one of the best ecommerce dropshipping platforms I’ve ever worked with due to key features and benefits like pre-built stores and not having to source out and look for your own products.
Besides ecommerce, I also do social media – I dance, I create music as well. Everything that comes into play with ecommerce and my music and everything – I just love it so much.
Do you remember what first inspired you to start your online business? Did you have any previous experience with ecommerce before joining Sellvia?
Just a little bit, but I wasn’t able to accumulate as many sales as I did with Sellvia, so I switched over.
When I made the switch I was already looking into building multiple sources of income, because I want to become a successful entrepreneur.
So when I came across the Sellvia platform on a Google search, I was like ‘Let me give it a try!’ because so many options are free.
The trial costs you nothing to sign up. And once you start selling – well, you just see the results for yourself.
What is your current store revenue?
Currently I’m past $5,000 in total sales.
It’s been a process building it and everything, but I’m so excited for the milestone, because I’m ready to make more high-ticket sales.
*This is Janiyah’s personal experience. Individual results vary and depend on the work you put in.
What do you think helped you the most in achieving these results?
I think what helped me achieve most of the results that I have now are the product packages that I’ve invested in – and not only that, just, again, staying consistent.
I do have email marketing, so that’s been a big help.
I’ve also kept adding products onto my website, which gives it new fresh products that are trending, and that helps with sales.
I also did try out the TikTok & Insta Store, but that was for a different store, not for my main one.
What does your daily routine look like when managing your business?
So with my website in particular I have some different things to help me run it. I like how you guys have the feature to run automatic order processing.
So all my orders that come through, they’re submitted on autopilot – or sometimes I do submit them one by one.
But once you stay consistent, with Sellvia Ads for example, you keep working at it – and for me, being consistent is what made the difference.
And do you run Ads consistently?
Yeah – I do turn them on and off sometimes, but staying consistent is what worked for me.
I mean… once I turned them on, I had sales coming in within a couple of days. It was really fast for me.
Did managing two stores double the time you spend on your business? What’s your routine like now?
Well, I would say with any other platform, you’ll probably spend more time than you would with Sellvia because you get a lot of help on the backend.
That’s what I like, there’s not that much routine work that I have to put in because of all the help and benefits that we get to make sure the day-to-day runs on autopilot.
I like how we have business advisors and business managers that can help us. Say we have questions – 24 hours throughout the day, if there’s anything wrong, we can go ask for help.
We have the messages, the emails, or even phone numbers to reach our business managers and get help with any problems we might have. So I feel like all these resources are a big help.
Your growth manager is Tina, right? What can you tell us about working with her?
Tina has been so great and so patient with me as well, because I’m always booking a call.
She always gives the best advice to help my businesses grow – and also great deals, great packages, she’s always sending me the freshest, hottest things.
She’s really great. Every time I have a question, she just knows exactly where to go.
So, what’s next for you? Are you planning to expand to more stores, or maybe sell one of your existing stores?
So, yeah, I definitely want to do both. I was thinking about selling one of my stores, but I do want to expand and grow and open up more stores because I’ll be able to basically work on several projects at once.
I got that advice also from my business manager, Tina. That’s the direction I want to take.
What are your biggest dreams for the future?
One of my dreams is to build something of my own and not work a 9-to-5 at all.
And also, I want to become successful in my music career because I really do like creating music and I hope one day people all over the world will hear it, you know?
In your opinion, what’s been the most important factor behind your success so far?
What’s helped my store in particular get the results and reach the milestones that it did was, number one, just staying consistent.
Sellvia Ads is a big help. And also I’d say email marketing, because it just puts your business and store in front of others every other day, or however often the emails are sent out.
And just wanting to become successful because a lot of people don’t have what it takes as far as wanting to put the hard work in and be looking and checking every day, making sure you’re seeing your emails and staying up to date.
What message would you like to share with those who are just beginning their journey with Sellvia?
My message to those who are just now starting will be to stay consistent.
And if you have any doubts about starting an ecommerce business, Sellvia will be the place to go because of all the help and benefits that you get with the platform.
I feel it will help. And as a beginner, you’ll have a lot to work with from the start!
