FAQ

Honest answers. Real questions.

How is this different from Dropship.io or TrendTrack?
Both are database tools showing what's already selling — lagging data. By the time something appears in their system it's been found by hundreds of sellers. We scrape live TikTok data, cross-reference Amazon in real time, add Pinterest 6-month forward signal, validate with Meta Ad Library, source three factories on 1688 with Chinese message templates, calculate real margins after all China shipping costs, and check Temu. Then we deliver it to your inbox. No dashboard to learn.
What does "real margin" mean — why isn't it 80%?
The 80% figure is factory price vs sell price — ignoring every other cost. The real margin after China domestic handling (€1.50), international shipping (€4–5), import duty (4%), Stripe fees (1.4% + €0.25), Shopify fees (2%) and returns (5%) is typically 40–50% gross. After Facebook ads at €10–15 CAC, net margin is €5–20 depending on sell price. We show all of this every week so you know your actual number before you test.
Does Beehiiv handle my signup automatically?
Completely. Double opt-in confirmation, welcome sequence, GDPR consent records, paid tier access, unsubscribes, bounces — all automatic. Enter your email, confirm it, start receiving the newsletter. If you upgrade, Stripe processes payment and Beehiiv immediately grants paid access. Nothing manual on either side.
How does the affiliate programme work?
Three tiers: Refer 3 → free month. Refer 10 → permanent 50% discount. Refer 20+ → 20% recurring commission on every subscriber you refer, paid monthly via Stripe with no cap. You get a unique referral link from your Beehiiv dashboard. Full details on the Affiliate page.
What if the products don't work for me?
Our intelligence improves your probability of success — it doesn't guarantee it. A product can score 96/100 and still fail if your creative is poor, your store converts badly, or you launch the same week 10 other subscribers do. What we eliminate is testing products with fundamental problems — wrong real margin, high saturation, no paid validation, Temu undercutting. The execution variables are still yours to control.
