Stop Trying to Scale What Isn’t Working

Season 2 · Episode 94

Tuesday, September 15, 2026 • Duration 11:18

What should you do when one brand in your store is generating an incredible return on ad spend… but another brand is the one you really want to sell?

In this episode of the Drop Ship Lifestyle Podcast, Anton shares a lesson that came directly from a recent one-on-one coaching call with an AK Founder Circle member.

The mistake? Taking advertising budget away from what is already working and trying to force something else to succeed simply because the potential upside looks bigger.

Anton breaks down why he would allocate roughly 80% of the advertising budget toward proven winners while keeping the remaining 20% available for testing and optimization.

You'll learn why you should scale what the market is already telling you works, how Google and Microsoft Shopping campaigns identify winning products, and why throwing more money at an unprofitable campaign usually isn't the answer.

Anton also shares details about the new DSL Mastermind, including weekly calls, business hot seats, real-time updates on the strategies and AI workflows he's currently using, and an annual in-person meetup in the Charlotte, North Carolina area.

If you're running paid traffic—or plan to in the future—this episode will help you make smarter decisions about where your advertising dollars should go.

Why I Don't Want Equity In Your Business

Season 2 · Episode 93

Thursday, September 10, 2026 • Duration 13:50

People regularly offer me 20%, 30%, or even 50% equity in their business in exchange for free or discounted access to Drop Ship Lifestyle or one of my higher-level coaching programs.

I always say no.

In this episode of the Drop Ship Lifestyle Podcast, I explain why taking equity might actually be a great financial opportunity for me—but why I still believe it's a bad deal for both sides.

I also share my own experience building an eight-figure eCommerce business with a 50/50 partner, how our relationship changed as the business grew, and what that experience taught me about partnerships, money, and resentment.

You'll hear why I believe giving away equity can become the most expensive way you'll ever pay for coaching, why I'm cautious about business partnerships in general, and why my goal has always been for Drop Ship Lifestyle members to build businesses they own 100%.

I don't want a piece of your business.

I want to help you build a business worth owning.

Free Shopify Store Scam

Season 2 · Episode 91

Wednesday, September 2, 2026 • Duration 06:34

Are “free, done-for-you” Shopify stores actually a scam? In this episode, I break down how these offers work, why they’re suddenly appearing everywhere, and what you may really be signing up for.Although you may receive a store, that doesn’t mean you’re receiving a viable business. Many of these offers use affiliate commissions, recurring software subscriptions, generic storefronts, and the same “trending” dropshipping products supplied to thousands of other aspiring sellers.I explain:• How free Shopify store offers make money • The recurring expenses you may be committing to • Why everyone receives the same trending products • Why a generic store is unlikely to give you a competitive advantage • What to do instead if you’re serious about building an ecommerce business To be clear, this episode is not criticizing Shopify itself. I’ve been a Shopify partner for years and believe it’s an excellent platform when used properly. This is my opinion and analysis of third-party companies advertising free, done-for-you stores.Building a real ecommerce business takes research, work, and a strategy that gives customers a reason to buy from you.

How to Handle a $70,000 Dropshipping Order (Without the Risk)

Season 2 · Episode 89

Friday, August 21, 2026 • Duration 03:46

What would you do if a customer wanted to place a $50,000—or even $70,000—order through your high-ticket dropshipping store?Large bulk orders can be extremely profitable, but they can also require you to put tens of thousands of dollars at risk. In this video, I share a strategy I used early in my high-ticket dropshipping career to profit from massive B2B orders without processing the payment or funding the cost of goods myself.The process is simple: work with your supplier, refer the qualified customer directly to them, and negotiate a commission on the sale. We’ve seen referral commissions ranging from 10% to 40%, depending on the supplier and the order.You may earn less than if you processed the entire order yourself, but you can avoid the financial and logistical risks while building your business bankroll.Before moving forward with any large order, always verify that it’s legitimate.

ChatGPT Ads for eCommerce (August 2026)

Season 2 · Episode 88

Tuesday, August 11, 2026 • Duration 11:32

Everybody's asking about ChatGPT ads right now, so I ran the test again — real budget, real product feeds, real results — and in this episode I'm sharing exactly where things stand.

Quick heads up before you listen: I recorded this on August 11, 2026, and this space is moving fast. Some of what I say here will probably be outdated soon. That's kind of the point.

I walk through my first test back when ChatGPT ads launched (basically a search text ad, no product feed, and it felt like a black box — no sales, experiment over), and then what changed once they rolled out product feed uploads. I got my feed formatted, set up the pixel and conversion events manually, and put real spend behind it. So what do the numbers actually look like? Let's just say I'm not shifting budget over anytime soon.

Here's what I get into:

Why the data is still a black box — impressions, clicks, and conversions, but no idea where buyers came from, what they searched, or who they are
The technical reality of getting a product feed into ChatGPT (and why non-technical people should stay away for now)
Why the cost per click runs $2–$3 when Google and Microsoft Shopping deliver quality traffic for less
What would actually make ChatGPT ads great — more data, and manual control to dial in results
Who should ignore this completely, and the specific type of store owner who could test it
If you do test it: exactly how I'd do it — top 5–10 proven products only, a small budget, conversion tracking locked in first
Why I'm genuinely rooting for AI shopping ads to get better

This isn't me hating on AI search. The free agentic traffic built into Shopify is fantastic. This is about whether paid ChatGPT ads deserve your money today — and my honest answer, for most people, is not yet.

Got value from this one? Leave a review on whatever player you're listening on, and I'll see you in the next episode.

Microsoft Ads for eCommerce

Season 2 · Episode 87

Tuesday, August 4, 2026 • Duration 11:18

This episode came out of a coaching call Anton wrapped up a couple hours before hitting record.

He was going through seven days of ad data with a member of the AK Founder Circle, splitting the screen between Google Ads and Microsoft Ads for the same supplier. Same alpha and beta campaign structure on both platforms. And within a dollar, the same spend across the week.

The results weren't close.

Microsoft pulled 57% more clicks for that identical budget. And Microsoft was the only one of the two producing purchases — the Google campaign for that supplier brought in zero conversions over seven days.

So Anton told him to pause the Google alpha and beta for that brand and move the entire budget over to Microsoft.

The reason is competition, and it's the part of this episode worth writing down. When they pulled up the same product on both platforms, Google Shopping had 14 stores listing it. Bing Shopping had two — and one of them was him. Bing is smaller traffic, no argument. But when you're bidding against one competitor instead of 14, you're not fighting anyone's CPC up, and you can capture nearly all of what's there.

Anton also covers who's actually on the other end of those Bing clicks: PC owners, skewing older, who never changed the default search engine on their Windows machine and don't think of Bing as Bing. They think of it as the internet. They search, they click shopping, they buy.

Setup takes almost no work, which is why the episode is short. Make a Microsoft Ads account. Use the built-in import that pulls your entire Google Ads structure over in one click — 20 alphas and betas come with it, nothing rebuilt from scratch. Then drop every daily budget to 25% of what it is in Google. If you're running $100 a day in Google, run $25 in Microsoft. A few days later you're approved and live.

The Cheapest Way to Get Rich Isn't Making More Money

Season 2 · Episode 86

Friday, July 31, 2026 • Duration 13:27

Anton just got back from a month in Vietnam and did the math on what it actually cost. Sub-$100-a-night beach resorts, 68-cent lunches, $500 apartments in Saigon, live-in help for $300 a month. This one's not about dropshipping tactics — it's the case for using global arbitrage to buy yourself years of freedom while you build your business.
