Handle POD returns by preventing issues first through sampling, reliable suppliers, and accurate listings, then separating genuine defects from buyer's remorse with a clear written policy. For real defects, request a photo, arrange a free reprint or refund quickly, and keep the customer informed. Made-to-order items are usually non-returnable for change of mind, but defects must always be made right. Fair, fast handling protects both your reputation and your margins.

AI product research for dropshipping means using AI tools to spot demand trends, analyze competitor ads, mine customer reviews for gaps, and validate ideas quickly before you commit. AI does not pick the winner for you, but it compresses days of research into hours by surfacing signals and patterns. The winner is still confirmed by real demand, healthy margins, and a clear angle, not by a tool alone.

To reach your first 100 sales on a readymade Shopify store, lock down your offer and tracking first, pick one traffic channel instead of five, drive consistent daily traffic through short-form video or a small paid test, capture non-buyers with email and SMS flows, and double down on whatever produces your first 10 sales. The first 100 sales are about finding what works, not scaling.
