Wow I'm surprised this post didn't get more thanks!
There are apparently lots of these types of lamps:

Some of them remind me of the rose in The Little Prince - one of my all-time favorite books. 
@athena thanks for the share! And for your other contributions since you joined recently.
Can you please tell us more about the "dropshipping research software" you're involved in?
And please feel free to start a thread in this section to introduce your software:
https://stmforum.com/forum/forumdisp...s-and-Services
Also: If you'd consider giving STM members an exclusive discount to your software, please get in touch by sending your contact info to me via PM - but please be sure to update this thread to let me know (as I don't normally check PMs).
I also noticed that you didn't include a link to your software in your forum signature - was that intentional? Would be a good way to get exposure!
Thanks again for the valuable share!

I completely missed this thread too
I just checked the FB page of those Sugar & Cotton folks and looks like they really know what they're doing when it comes to going viral with their posts. There are quite a few with several 100s of thousands of likes. Not sure if it's the unique products they're selling or they have some kind of a strategy, but it definitely works great for them 
Thanks for posting this! I'm sure you have some more interesting examples... fire away

Sugar & Cotton are well known in drop-shipping space. They are around for years and probably doing crazy numbers.
sugarandcotton.com was their first general store, lately I noticed they have more niche stores like warmlydecor.com.
One of their main channels is Pinterest.

Check their SimilarWeb/Social profile 
warmlydecor.com @ SimilarWeb
sugarandcotton.com @ SimilarWeb
Here is one their top-performing Pinterest promoted pin with more than 150k saves.

Hope this helps!
Cheers,

That's amazing - thanks for sharing! Here's a quick report I pulled for warmydecor, running with 70-80% margins -

Thanks Amy! That means a lot, right back at you. I am stunned by how much value I have seen you post around here!
Ah, 'Le Petit Prince' I totally agree. I think you just found a new audience for the rose!
This quote really stuck with me.
Sure, so I'm part of the TrendingProducts.com team. It's an invite-only dropshipping research software, currently in private beta. To be more specific, it's the only dropshipping research software capable of sending unique product trends to users with us in real-time. Right now all the leading dropshipping product research solutions are really poor, in my opinion they can't really be called software - all they do is post a couple of products per day from someone looking at Facebook Ads and worse, they send the same products to their entire userbase, which provides no value to anyone.
The Trending Products software differs in that it tracks literally every single dropshipping store out there. We monitor millions of stores and even more ads each day (from various sources), we then cross reference this data with ecommerce footprints and social signals to produce the most comprehensive, up-to-date database of trending products out there.
Trending Products was ready to launch over a year ago but the user interface didn't work as seamlessly as we wanted it to so we kept pushing back launch until we came up with a unique way of providing value to users with us. Over the last year we brought in an additional team that works 24/7 to manually match product trends to suppliers (if we can't find a supplier we don't show the trend). This lets us show users product trends, with their ads and suppliers in real-time. The same team helps us classify thousands of newly detected stores each day as dropshipping vs non-dropshipping store. To date our team has matched over 100,000 trending products to their AliExpress suppliers on thousands of dropshipping stores. We catch most trends just as they are starting to take off and send them to users based on their preferences.
We are closed on membership right now (invite-only) to stop competitors coming in and re-posting all our data as their own, so that's why we've opted for a super slow launch but the solution is building a reputation now as the invite-only community grows, so that's not so much of any issue any more! I'd love to chat more - sent you a PM.
