Hey guys, its Jessica Guzik with Oberlo, and today we’re going to share 10 products that you can sell that have a proven track record of success. In other words, we know from our own merchant data that customers buy these products. Alright, on to the products! [#1 HIIT Equipment] To kick off our list, we’ve got H-I-I-T,or HIIT, equipment.

Now you may be wondering, what on earth is HIIT equipment?! HIIT stands for ‘High-Intensity Interval Training’, and it’s a fitness trend that has been steadily growing in popularity over the past few years. Common products that HIIT fans tend to purchase are fitness mats, jump ropes, and resistance bands – all of which you can dropship with Oberlin. These products come in many different color sand variations, so you should be able to find something that fits your brand and appeals to customers.

If you’re interested in starting a fitness brand, a HIIT store could be a good option for you. It’s still, a relatively untapped niche and your target audience will be highly engaged buyers who are always looking for new products to help them train harder. 

[#2 Match Tea] Match tea is a finely ground green tea powder from China. It’s delicious, and it’s one of the many traditional Asian products that’s now finding massive success in western markets. Sales for matcha tea have been on the rise for the last ten years, and our stats show that match products will continue to growing popularity. Besides tasting great, these products offer tons of health benefits: match is known to improve metabolism and detox the body. 

These health benefits are great for marketing campaigns, especially if you’re targeting health and fitness enthusiasts. If you sell match products, try to bundle them with related products like teacups, powder whisks, and other accessories that you can upsell to your customers. 

(03 Beard Oil) Next up on our list is beard oil an extremely popular product for men with beards. Beard oil works by moisturizing facial hair and the skin beneath the beard. It helps to soften the hair and can be used as a styling agent. 

It’s essential for men who are serious about maintaining a well-groomed beard. Since it’s primarily men who buy beard oil, you’ll be able to run targeted ads directed mostly at men, which should cut your marketing costs down a bit. Knowing who your audience is will help you create compelling marketing campaigns and communicate with an engaged audience of proudly bearded buyers. 

[#4 SmartPhone Power Banks] A smartphone power bank is essentially a portable battery that’s easy to carry around. If one of your mobile devices runs out of juice, you can connect it to the power bank and you’ll be up and running again in no time. An incredible 80% of internet users on mobile devices, and as I’m sure you know, nothing is worse than running out of battery. As smartphones continue to grow in popularity, so will smartphone power banks and that growth represents a ton of potential that you can capitalize on And power banks are perfect for a drop shipping business – they’re light, relatively cheap to source, and you can make decent margins by selling them. Now, many power banks run on lithium-ion batteries. You’ll want to do your homework to make sure that you’re allowed to sell them in whatever countries you’re targeting for sales. 

[#5 Phone Cases] The phone accessories industry is hot, and it has been for some time. That’s why we’ve added cell phone cases to our list of great business ideas. Phone cases account for more than 20% of the total phone accessories industry, so the market for these products is evident. On top of that, we don’t see this niche disappearing anytime soon. The list of new phone models is constantly being updated, so you’ll always find that you have new phone cases to sell. This is perfect for drop shipping, as you can add and remove products from your inventory with ease. If you decide to dive into the phone case industry, remember to test out different variants of your products – we’re sure you’ll land on some products which your audience love. 

[#6 Cat Eye Sunglasses] If you’ve been thinking about starting a women’s fashion store, cat-eye sunglasses could be a good option for you. If you can capitalize on even a tiny percentage of that, you’re going to be a happy camper. When you’re marketing these products, you’ll likely want to tap into the Integra influencer market. You can offer influencers a commission for selling your sunglasses – that way you’ll only pay a fee for the products which they sold for your business, rather than the usual “pay per promoted post” business model.

[#7 Enamel Pins] Enamel pins have been exploding in popularity over the past two years, and they show absolutely no sign of slowing down. The great thing about these pins is that they come in so many different styles! There are literally thousands of different pins, so just think about the huge inventory you can offer your customers. And if you’re drop shipping, you’ll never have to buy any product upfront or stock any inventory. Enamel pins are perfect for drop shipping! Enamel pins are relatively inexpensive when sold individually, so it might be hard to make decent margins once you’ve accounted for marketing and shipping fees. You can get around this by creating bundles of enamel pins for your store. This will help you to alleviate the shipping fees, and sell more products! 

[#8 Pool Inflatables] Over the past few months we’ve seen celebrities and social media influencers show a lot of love for pool inflatables. I’m sure you’ve seen the unicorns, pink flamingos, and my personal favorite - the giant donut! But on Oberlin Supply there are SO many more types of pool inflatables! Even though these products are somewhat seasonal, you can still run a sustainable business with some clever targeted marketing campaigns. Just remember, when it’s winter in the northern hemisphere, its summer in the southern hemisphere, and vice versa. 

[#9 Lace Bras] If you’re looking to dive into women’s fashion, lace bras could be the perfect business idea for you. These products have been popular for a few years already, and our statistics show that they’re only going to increase in popularity in the coming months. If you’re interested in selling these products, this is a great time to get into the market. Just be careful when you’re marketing these products, especially if you decide to use Facebook advertising. Ads that feature any type of seductive imagery can get rejected by Facebook, so we advise that you feature the bras on vibrant backgrounds, rather than models.
