The origin of e-pickr?
In short what this article is about
Our ?? brings you ??!
Curious, you say? Well here is some more detailed description
We are your go-to for the strongest and most accurate data on product research for a succesful e-commerce business, and here is why:
Still not enough? Then here is the full story then??
e-pickr? is a young and fresh startup created from the success of e-commerce and the growth of the industry. As a young entrepreneur I used to sell some products on Bol.com. This was a side job next to my studies International Business at Maastricht University. Soon it grew to the best earnings I could have had during these times. Not only was the income stream enough to pay the rent and groceries, but also was it the perfect amount for a lot of parties and holidays. I want this no longer to be only my dream, but everyone's. If you are experienced or not, we can help you to sell products online the way I did! My name is Bart van Eekelen, founder of e-pickr? ????
I saw how rough it is to combine a full time study with a job on the side to financially live the student life that I dreamt of. Renting your room, insurances, phone membership, school tuition and books. Nothing comes for free, and neither does academic knowledge. However, I did not have any time for driving around on a bike with a giant backpack to deliver food or drinks (trust me, no affiliate marketing here!). The minimum wages that grocery shops, delivery services and hospitality offer our 18 to 30 year olds is a true pain in the @ss, and it does not respect the value that these youngsters deserve to earn! ??
Inspired once by the stories of Lamborghinis and Villas in Bali, I also decided to become an e-commercer.?€50?for starting the business and?€250?for the inventory (Bluetooth Receivers). I sold?40?in the first month and earned?€690?. So, I went back to the wholesaler and ordered?100?this time, then?200?and another time?200. After having sold?540?Bluetooth receivers at a price of?€20?each, there were no longer ten sellers in this niche, instead there were ten pages full of sellers! ??
And now what?
I started searching for more products, but as many of you might know: that is a little harder than it looks! First, you need to have the right idea, then the appropriate research, and last the correct analyses. For example, yeah sure we can use that grocery cart method, that we learnt from Jia Ruan. This works pretty fine, but how useful is that when we are all doing this same method?
So, let’s try a different method. Social media pages, look for trends and listen to vlogs and podcasts. They tell you what product sells well, but do not mention anything about competition, the likeliness that you can afford buying enough inventory, or how optimized other sellers their listings are. Otherwise, have you tried downloading one of these “100 ideas of what to sell on Amazon”-books? Yes? Ah, so did 4,000 others. We are with 10 million e-commercers worldwide, and 42,000 of them are Bol.com Partners. You are not alone in this industry. You need a little more help to find a?golden nugget?if you really want to stand out! ??
Therefore, I am more than happy to see that e-commerce guru’s like Boyd Hoek and Joshua Kaats advertise the success of being your own boss and how to dropship or sell on Bol.com. Though, the additional comments made about ‘being a school dropout’ are not what we stand for. We do not approve you quitting school to chase some wild dreams. Nonetheless, we try to combine the best of both, by doing all product research for you and telling you exactly what you should sell. So that you can focus on your study or job, while earning a sweet stream of e-commerce income on the side.
Sounds like the best of both worlds, right? Right!???
You cannot stand out from the mass if you collect research the same way as all others do!

Easy-to-use, and fast too!
The importance of education and academic research are at the very heart of our platform. We use advanced algorithms and we make our system learning from itself. This sounds complex and mostly hard to work with, but with keeping you in mind, we have developed simple easy-to-use tools from these complexities. In essence, you give us just a keyword and we give you the answer whether to sell this product or not. Besides that, to speed things up a little, we do not only analyze this one keyword. Oh no!?We analyze 25 to 200 related products in that same second!???
Yes, you read that correct, with one click, you are analyzing hundreds of products that are currently sold and you get the insights that you need to make a professional and successful decision. Not only do we use the sales of these products in our analyses, but also the heaviness of competition, your financial fit to this product, and the profit from the revenue that you are keeping. Together, we give you one over all score whether to sell these products or rather not.
