The Golden 3x Markup Rule for Dropshipping Success

The most common mistake novice dropshippers make is pricing products with only a 20% markup over supplier cost. Once Meta Ads CPA ($12–$20) and Shopify transaction fees are deducted, stores operate at a heavy net loss. Top-performing stores aim for a 3x to 4x multiplier over combined COGS and shipping to maintain healthy advertising margins.
