#1 - eCom Elites – Best Value Course
By far, Franklin Hatchett’s eCom Elites is the best course (especially for the money) for 2020. eCom Elites has so much content and with over 175 videos covering topics such as Facebook & Instagram Ads, email marketing, chat bots, product research, Google Shopping Ads, sales funnels and more. You can be assured that every aspect of getting your dropshipping business going is included at price lower than what you'd expect.
I believe this course should be priced much higher than the $197 price tag and especially for the eCom Elites Ultimate at $297 (which is new including Google Ads & funnel training) as it competes with higher priced courses. On top of that, you even get a money back guarantee if you are not satisfied. Accompanied with a Facebook group for support and ongoing updated content, it’s the hands down winner.
#2 - Product Winner Blueprint
If you have an ecom store already or at least know how to set it up properly without needing a course to walk you through all that stuff, PWB could be for you. Tristan Broughton created this course and it's core focus is finding that winning product to scale and cash in from. It's a great course with some new methods I have seen and really drills down product finding and converting.
He has also created his new Google Ads eCom Academy that you can bundle with Product Winner Blueprint for $497 or buy separately at $397. It's a no brainer to get the bundle package if you are serious about scaling your store.

#3 - Shopify Ninja Masterclass
If you’re a fan of Kevin David and like his teaching style, then you’ll get a lot out of this course. However, it’s a bit pricey so if that turn you off then you might want to choose another. The course has five modules which include just over 65 videos in total. Included is training that is live weekly and a Facebook mastermind group. Read my full review for more.

#4 - eCom Success Academy
Adrian Morrison is a big name in the eCom world. He has mad millions in dropshipping and has proof to back it up. Ecom Success Academy or ESA for short, is packed with value and is laid out very nicely. I purchased this course myself 2 years ago and have a full review on it as well so do check it out. It’s pricey at $2495 so unless you’ve got the money to spend, you should probably stick with my preferred option.
#5 - eCom Inner-Circle
A course by Arie Scherson, it’s relatively new in 2018. You may know Arie from his extensive videos on Youtube. His channel alone provides a lot of good information to help you get started but his course goes into much more detail. It’s priced higher than my favorite course, but at $397 USD it’s not a bad price point. Take a look at my full review for more info on Arie’s course.
# 6 - eCom Masters
eCom Masters by Joaquin Corrales takes on a unique approach with more one-on-one coaching unlike other courses. Because of this, the course is expensive at $1997 but if 1-2-1 coaching is important to you, then it might be worth the investment. Check out my full review below.
Top Dropshipping Courses Conclusion
I'll be adding more recommendations as I see fit. As you can see I don't include all the courses I review on my blog here, as not all of them qualify as a good investment in my opinion.
If you are looking to buy an ecom course, you are free to take my advice or go elsewhere and look. At the end of the day it's your money that you are spending.
If you would ask me which course would be best, it's clear that eCom Elites is the clear winner as it's a complete course for beginners or advanced/intermediate drop shippers. With over 230 videos of instruction, it's a no-brainer.
Product Winner Blueprint is a great course for those with an existing store that want to focus on just that - finding a winning product. You need to understand the basics before investing in this course so not recommened for newbies. Go with Ecom Elites instead.
The other recommended courses all cost more and I have not found these to be better in any way. I don't believe you need to spend more than $300 for training in dropshipping and doing so is just wasting your money.
Your savings can go towards ads, and since a lot of focus is on ads, more investment in this area greatens your chances of finding that first winning product. It gets easier from there.
Remember, all these courses have the same goal in mind - to help you find that winning product and to scale. There is no "secret sauce" with the higher priced courses that separate that from the lower priced ones. Let that sink in. Why would you spend more then?
That's just being foolish and I know my readers are much more savvy than that 🙂

how does ecom elite compare to alex becker’s course, outside of cost, they promise to get me up and running, no wasted ads, actual help and support if I;m doing something wrong..how does ecom elite compare, is it just a bunch of information that’s good or is it results oriented.. I can’t work with too much info at the beginning with no real focus for step by step,. Is this ecom elite comparable?
Hi Kathleen,
In Ecom Elites support is available as well. If you ever have a problem you can reach out to support or the Facebook chat group for advice. Franklin himself goes in there to answer questions too. Everything taught in Ecom Elites is step by step and is very easy to follow along. To understand this business you do need to work at it and understand it. There’s no push button solution. Any course that guarantees results is lying to you. No one can do that. It’s up to you to take the information you have learned and apply it. Help is available along the way but you need to be willing to put in the work. Ecom Elites is set up to be newbie friendly so you are in good hands!
im concerned about being able to grasp all this information. what i don’t want is to buy the course and never have questions answered by him or a support team. I have a college degree, but this is totally different from anything that i have ever tried to master. Is he going to be available? how elementary is this course? does he have a glossary to explain all these terms? Honestly, i don’t even know what you guys mean by funnels?? ?? nobody stops to explain this, people just assumed that all of us are familiar with this space.
im willing to put in the work.
Hi Michelle, are you referring to eCom Elites? Their support is excellent, you have the direct support where you submit a ticket and then there’s the Facebook group which is very active. Questions can be asked there too. Franklin does answer questions in there as well as other students. As far as terminology goes, there’s no glossary per se but everything will be explained. It’s designed for newbies so everything is broken down in detail. The purpose of a funnel are the steps someone takes to finally make a purchase. Funnel strategies can vary but that’s the core idea. Franklin has a funnel module in the Ultimate package and it’s fully explained. You’ll gain a lot of knowledge from this course and nothing will be left unanswered. Don’t worry, you’re in good hands 🙂
Do they update their course?
Hi Christopher. Which one are you referring to? Oddly enough, I just finished up my review of Savage Affiliates 2.0 which was just released yesterday!
Hi I just wondered have you reviewed ECOM INSIDERS by James Beattie
Hi Glenn,
I haven’t looked into that one yet. It’s a 2K course which is crazy – I’m sure there’s nothing that rivals eCom Elites in terms of training. I’ll keep this one in mind though for a future review.
Great reviews Drew. Do any of the courses go over sales tax and which states you need to be sales tax exempt in?
Hi Josh yes, but you’re instructed to check with your state/city to clarify since it would a colossal effort for any course to list that individual information. In other words don’t take tax advice from any course, this is something that you need to check yourself but it’s relatively easy.
Hi Drew. As I’m gettinhg started, your site is exactly what I was looking for. Does any of the dropshipping courses you’ve listed allow ability to filter and find dropshipper only from US? Thank you.
Hi Chucky, glad you are getting something from my blog. The courses I recommend deal mostly with dropshippers overseas (due to the cheap cost) but you can always use tools like Salehoo to find dropshippers in the US.
Hope that helps!
Hi Drew! I just want to say “Thank You!” for saving me a few thou on an expensive Lead Gen program, because you helped me realize that I don’t need that! And after going through your reviews, I decided to go with Ecom Elites, and focus on the e-com biz, something I have always been interested in. Bought Ecom Elites last night, through your link, and am halfway through Module #1. You are right, Franklin breaks things down in detail and shows you step by step…just what I need as a noob. I will put the effort in, and stay persistent. I appreciate your honest approach and expert knowledge. Keep up the great work…we need more folks like you in this online world! I’ll be back!
Great stuff Lonnie glad I was able to help you out and save you a ton of cash. There’s just too many money-hungry course creators out there. That’s awesome you are enjoying eCom Elites – it’s such a great course at a tiny price! All the best and thank you for your kind words and support!
Hi Drew, i am looking into a marketing affeliate course i have looked at SFM courses (the six figure mentors) Do you know about these courses jow do they compare with eCom Elites. The program starts at 197$ followed by 97$ per month. Is this the way do get started. My initial interest was to give my son who is a talented painter, decorator site a better visibility on the net. Any suggestions. Thank you in avance for your time. Best. Marc.
Hi Marc, The Six figure Mentors and eCom Elites are two very different courses. eCom Elites focuses on building a dropshipping site from scratch on Shopify. SFM teaches affiliate marketing, so very different. For your purpose, I think you’d be best suited to find some existing marketplace to market your son’s work, rather than starting from scratch. Art overall is a massive niche and you could build a blog to feature his work, but you’d need to get a lot of targeted traffic to it. As for SFM, if you really want to learn affiliate marketing save yourself some money and go for Savage Affiliates instead. There’s no monthly fees and there’s more training in this course than any other affiliate marketing course out there right now. Hope that helps.
Hi Drew – Started my store 2 years ago and STILL struggling. I’m an 85 YO man who god into estore to help supplement my fixed income. Made some money BUT the sales/mktg is too costly for me to sustain.. Selling wood watches which I think was a fad and is now fading, Zander my strengths going in BUT didn’’t realize how difficult the mktg. would be. Unless I can find help I may be folding soon. Since money is a factor, help for an old guy isn’t there. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Stan Simon
