Side hustle Slim Jim here. What do you think of that one? I have, you know,
crypto Jimbo, passive income Pelton.
I can't think of one that starts with S though.
I need an alliteration for side hustles. Let me know in the comments.
Best idea wins something. I'm looking around on my desk. What I have,
I'll give you something. If you have a name that I end up using,
but you guys know I love passive income. I love side hustles.
I love using the internet to make more money.
And one of the most common traditional ways to make money online is starting an
e-commerce store. But this is what I commonly see happen.
You get this great idea for this e-commerce store.
You're going to specialize in pickleball or something like that.
So you come up with the idea, you get a name, you get a logo,
you're all excited about it. You start putting the website together,
but then comes the nightmare that is e-commerce.
And there's two things that are really, really difficult for e-commerce people,
finding the right products and then finding reliable suppliers who can get you
those products.
You do the research and you finally find a product you think that will sell.
You contact the supplier, you go back and forth working on terms.
And the next thing you know, the supplier doesn't end up shipping anything.
Or you end up picking the wrong products.
And then you have an inventory that doesn't end up selling.
Nightmare for e-commerce people. Let me know in the comments,
has anybody tried an e-commerce store who runs their own e-commerce store right
now? Can you relate to those challenges?
So you guys know how much I've love AI.
Some people are kind of scared of the new technology. That's not how I see it.
It's going to come whether or not you want it.
So I always figure you might as well be on the cutting edge of new things.
When the internet started, I was one of the first to get in there,
start programming. When e-commerce started,
that was actually one of my first jobs was getting traditional brick and mortar
stores online. And the same thing's true with AI.
You can use AI to get ahead of your competitors,
to make some of these side hustles that I talk about easier, save time,
make more money on e-commerce is one of them.
So Axio is the name of this business.
So Axio is the name of this company and they help you find products
and suppliers for those products for your e-commerce store.
And they really utilize AI. I'm going to show you that here at a minute,
but a tremendous tool. If you're wanting to start an e-commerce store,
I wish I had this back when I was running my e-commerce stores.
So Axio is like having your very own AI personal assistant to help you with your
e-commerce store. That's kind of what, you know,
AI is kind of like having an employee, but you don't have to pay them.
So it opens up a lot of possibilities for you.
So first thing is real time product inspiration.
So let's say what products are hot right now.
So then it's analyzing your requirements, searching and evaluating products.
This is what AI is doing behind the scenes.
And this would be just a great way to get ideas for what kind of e-commerce
store you might want to sell. These are some hot trending products right now.
And you can, and you can select different categories. Well, you know,
I'm not interested in makeup brushes, but how about portable projectors?
That's kind of cool. And then you can select by let's do best selling. All right.
So then we get a whole bunch of portable projectors and these are the best
selling over here at the top. There's a lot more filters you can do as well.
Maybe you only want to do 4k projectors.
This is actually one of the things that's impressed me the most is your ability to
filter through the results that they give.
Let's say I just went with this best selling one right here.
So I took this projector,
I can compare it with this other projector and you get to see kind of, you know,
they look very similar,
but that's one of the things that's very difficult as a supplier is, well,
which one's better, which one actually works. You know,
sometimes you get these products. Most of them are going to end up being from China.
Both of these are from China. Sometimes the products are good.
Sometimes they're not good, but if you sell not good products,
your store is not good. So for this particular example, you know,
store rating 4.5 out of five with 522, that's pretty good.
4.7 out of five with 363 their average response time is a lot
faster. So let's say I went with this one. It's the best selling anyways,
but I can click on it. You get pricing. Notice, you know,
if you buy more, you get it a little bit cheaper.
That's not actually much of a discount for getting, you know, 8,000 of them,
but you can look through the product, get to know it a little better.
You can click on the supplier. It takes you, this is an Alibaba company,
but you can see, you know, info on the company itself.
And then you can either chat with the supplier or you can just send in an
inquiry. It'll put together an email for you saying, Hey, I'm interested in this.
Let them know how much, how many you want for your store.
You obviously want to start small until you know it's going to sell well,
especially if there's not a big discount for buying a lot.
Like it's not worth buying 8,000 to get $3 off.
So you can easily use this to find what products you want in your store,
to find the best supplier for that particular product.
And they also have this cool deep search feature.
And this works best on PC doesn't work as well on your mobile phone.
But if you hop on a desktop PC, but it basically takes your query,
breaks it into smaller pieces and puts a lot of time into it. So let's do a,
remember I talked about a pickleball store. Let's do pickleball.
Find me the best selling pickleball paddles
that will give me the best return on my money.
Then I had just hit search. I turned deep search on click search.
So it tells you how long it'll take, take about a minute.
I figured out this is exactly what I'm looking for.
So to find the best pickleball paddles, we need to consider various attributes.
So this is, I wouldn't have even known this.
Like what are you looking for in a good pickleball paddle?
But they looked through 77,000 products, 12,000 suppliers,
and they found 60 perfect matches to what I asked for.
So we have enough here where if they're not a verified manufacturer,
it's probably not worth it. So I'll add to the query.
Show me only verified vendors.
They recommend here looking through the deep search and what they looked for,
but it says people often search for comfortable grip. So let's do that.
Let's do only ones with comfortable grips.
Let's include popular brands. That was one thing they mentioned. All right,
let's apply that. So now it's going to do a new search. Okay.
And so now it's finding me some paddles,
but it's also finding me some like grip tape type stuff.
So I'm going to change this one more time just to show you only show paddles,
not grip tape or grip pads, full paddles.
One thing I love about AI is you don't have to be very clear in what you're
saying. It can kind of figure it out. So for this one,
looking for pickleball paddles with comfortable grips from popular brands,
only verified vendors. So then it finds some things people search for.
This is super helpful because again,
your products are only going to be found if people are searching for them.
So knowing what people are searching for, this is really helpful.
So it goes through a bunch of rounds of searches here, finds a bunch of products.
Then it's reasoning and refining search results.
It only takes about a minute. So this is actually pretty fast.
AI has become a long way. It's gotten a lot faster,
but you'd see it took the grips out. It's just showing me paddles.
And I want to compare these. This one's $23. This one's $2.
It looks like you can put a logo on this one,
but let me just compare these three just to kind of think what I would want for
my store. So this is obviously a much nicer paddle.
This one's kind of a generic one, but you can put a logo on it.
So that'd be, you know, one direction. These are,
these are all different directions you could take your store.
You could put all sorts of pickleball paddles.
You could put mid range pickleball paddles. You could sell cheap ones,
but you can put a logo on them. That might be something appealing to people.
Or you could put, you know, professional, really nice pickleball paddles,
make sure to keep an eye on the minimum order. So, you know, for this one,
you have to buy at least 50 to get this low pricing.
So then I can send them an inquiry right here, or I can, this is a,
this is a product on Alibaba.
So you can go there and get a little bit more info. So, but again,
this uses the same, so you can go back and, you know,
look at the history of your search. It's kind of like you're using chat GPT.
You can ask a followup. Let's say,
how much would the top Leo mini projector
usually sell for? So it says it usually sells for $200,
depending on the model and specifications. So again,
this is all stuff that I would do when I was running my e-commerce store,
but this just would save a lot of time. I mean,
this would have taken me a long time to do all this research.
That's why I'm so excited about AI and just how it saves time.
It's going to help e-commerce people put better products in their store. But again,
look at all the work that it did. Analyzing requirements. Okay.
Reasoning for search strategy.
So it even thought of things that I wouldn't have even thought of.
So not only is it saved me time,
but it does a better job than I would have done on my own verifying products
according to requirements. So I could add more requirements if I wanted to.
Reasoning, refining search results, verifying the products.
And it's really interesting. I love how it shows how the AI thinks.
So it says focus on the most unmet requirement,
then go through popular brands, then try it in different orders.
So it goes through those and make sure the products that's showing are still
correct. So it goes through and refines this several times, but again,
it only took about a minute. So very exciting tool.
I'd recommend anybody who has an e-commerce store, go try out Axio.
So there's already 500,000 e-commerce stores using Axio to source their
products.
They have over 200 million products in here and they have over a million
suppliers, verified suppliers. There's more that are unverified.
So this is the most extensive database and best product
sourcing tool that I've found. If you want to run an e-commerce store.
So looking for a side hustle, want something where you can work from home,
tried and true. It's the oldest e-commerce, an online e-commerce store.
And if you have an e-commerce store, you're interested in e-commerce store,
you know, using Axio even to help you start an e-commerce store,
but go check it out, mess around with it. Let me know in the comments,
what you think of this. Appreciate you guys.
I'm so excited about just the age we live in with all this new tech coming out.
I love it. I love looking around. I love finding things like this.
So appreciate you guys watching. I hope you have a wonderful day.
