JOB OVERVIEW

I’m looking for an experienced Product Research VA to help find winning products for my Shopify store, Backyard Upgrade Co.

Your responsibilities:

* Find 10–20 high-potential products each week in the backyard, outdoor living, garden, patio, landscaping, and home improvement niches.
* Research products using tools such as Meta Ad Library, TikTok, AliExpress, Alibaba, CJdropshipping, Amazon, and other research platforms.
* Verify that suppliers offer good pricing, reasonable shipping times, and reliable quality.
* Compare competitor pricing and estimate profit margins.
* Identify products with strong viral potential and consistent demand.

Each product submission should include:

* Product name
* Supplier link
* Product cost
* Shipping cost and delivery time
* Suggested selling price
* Estimated profit margin
* Competitor links
* Why you believe it’s a winning product
* Links to active ads or social media videos if available

Ideal qualifications:

* Experience researching winning dropshipping products
* Familiarity with Shopify and product sourcing
* Strong attention to detail
* Ability to identify trends before they become saturated
* Excellent communication

When applying, please answer these questions:

1. What tools do you use to find winning products?
2. How do you determine whether a product has winning potential?
3. Show me three products you’ve found recently that you believe could sell well, and explain why.
4. How do you verify supplier reliability and product quality?
5. How do you estimate realistic profit margins?
6. What mistakes do you see beginners make when choosing products?
7. Have you sourced products for Shopify stores before? If so, what niches?
8. If hired, what would your first week of work look like?

I’m looking for someone who can consistently find products with strong profit potential—not just products that look interesting.
