Hey, I'm 18 and I've been dreaming for this eventful summer filled with growth with dropshipping. I would watch multiple videos on YouTube teaching myself every possibility I could encounter for when I would start my Shopify droppshipping business. I specifically focused on this certain small dropshipping youtuber who focused on Google Ads which I'm still very confident on and will focus on if I do every continue. I told myself I wouldn't tell anyone about my plans just to avoid an evil eye on me aswell as my parents who have shallow thoughts. The door I waited for was in getting a debit card, specifically I chose Bank of America, the same day I got my card I activated it and immediately hopped on my slow laptop. I started the three month 1 dollar subscription for shopify, started my subscription for a AI tool that copies aliexpress products to my store, purchased Claude to then connect my Shopify store, and then I hit a obstacle, I couldn't purchase a Higgsfield AI subscription to make my images for my products better. I tried again and again searching any way to purchase it but my card flagged the "Stripe" subscription service as faulty and I researched how to stop the flagging and tried to call my bank and nothing worked. I was so stressed out I was breathing so shallowly for the past two days, and I started disassociating so badly, I wanted this so bad and I feel like I cant reach out for anyone for help because no one in my circle knows nothing about this neither do my friends. Honestly I'm just looking for help with your advice for product images and what has worked for you. I've thought of just using the already made images for the products that AliExpress uses but I myself wouldnt be attracted to the images. What are your guy's advice, I want this life so bad but I just feel like I'm wasting so much potential waiting a days, weeks, and months more for me to take action.
