Ecommerce Empire Builders Review: Peter Pru Course Worth it?

You may have seen Peter Pru on Youtube recently if you search for eCom stuff like I do.

His ad seems to be appearing quite often now for his course Ecommerce Empire Builders, the focus of this review. It also goes by the name "Six Figure Funnels".

This course sells for $997 or two payments of $597 totaling $1194. 

Please don't ever fall for these inflated 2 pays because if you pay by credit card for the full amount at $997 and factoring the interest even at the full amount, it's not going to be anywhere near the $200 difference. Off to a great start! 

Update:

It's been more than 2 years since I wrote this review so I think I am due for an update. What has Peter Pru been up to? It looks like not much has changed and his Ecommerce Empire Builders brand and course are still actve.

His content on his Youtube channel hasn't changed much. He still teaches dropshipping and hasn't really pivoted to anything different. His audience has grown to over 52,000 subscribers. 

It looks like Peter Pru still believes in dropshipping and his channel is going strong. Many course creators that promoted their dropshipping courses on Youtube have disappeared but Peter Pru is sticking around.

Who is Peter Pru?

Peter Pru is a 28 year old entrepreneur that does not appear to be one of these "fly by nighter" Youtubers that come and go every so often.

He seems to be legit and has even won a 2 comma club award by Clickfunnels.

He achieved this through physical product sales in his online fishing business. 

Peter started sharing his strategies in ecom as a side project which eventually morphed into become an instructor online. His previous course is Six Figure Funnnels followed by Ecommerce Empire Builders which we are discussing today which looks to be the rebrand.

On his Youtube channel he will talk about things like why very few dropshippers are successful, things he wish he knew before starting in ecom, email marketing strategies, Clickfunnels, Facebook ads and so on.

He doesn't go into much detail with each topic because that material is reserved for his course for obvious reasons.

Ecommerce Empire Builders Six Figure Funnels Review

Peter's course does focus on dropshipping but the strategy is a little different than that of his competitors with similar courses. He teaches dropshipping using sales funnels through Clickfunnels and discusses funnel hacking.

Module 1 - Foundation

Here Peter talks to you about mindset. Mindset is a key factor in any business. I don't think this warrants an entire module but perhaps for many this might be useful. It's a short module but take it for what it's worth to you.

Module 2 - Funnels

Peter goes into depth on funnel building in this module. He teaches you how to build them the correct way and, gives you pre-built funnels you can download to your account.

Of course you will need a Clickfunnels account and if you're thinking about doing so check out my Clickfunnels review first. 

He gives a good explanation on these funnels and teaches you everything you need to learn about creating them specifically for ecommerce.

Module 3 - Email Marketing

No ecom store should be without an email marketing strategy. You'll find that most ecom courses these days do come with an email marketing module because well, it is important.

If you are not collecting emails with your ecom business you are technically leaving money on the table. Just do it.

In this module Peter shows you the exact sequence to use, exact emails to give to customers, how to set it up, etc, Focus is also on emailing and communicating with customers that abandoned cart and how to recapture them as a paying customer.

There are apps for abondoned carts but learning the proper wording and strategy is important as you don't want to "piss off" people too much. It's a fine balance you have to weigh with your email campaign and Peter does a pretty good job of explaining this.

Module 4 - Influencer Marketing

This section covers both Instagram influencers and Youtube influencers. Starting off this way is a good strategy because not only does it build some data for your store, you can also build your list, increase your brand awareness and even make some sales.

This can be done even before you start your Facebook campaign. Generally, the leads you acquire in this method is cheaper than that of Facebook. Facebook is where you will scale what you know already works and also continue with testing.

Module 5 - Facebook Advertising

A rather small module on FB advertising and nothing that I have seen that stands out from the rest in similar ecom courses.

Module 6 - Scaling to 7 Figures

In this module Peter shows you the steps he used to scale to 7 figures using his own business.

Monthly Funnel Hacks

Every month Peter gets you a new "funnel Hack" from every one to Tai Lopez, and products like Lady Boss, Organifi, KinoBody and so on. 

What he does here is he goes through these high converting funnels, downloads them and recreates them. He will then provide these custom funnels to you to use for your campaigns. Just so you know, because it worked for these business it doesn't mean it will work for yours. They are proven funnels though so will most likely have a greater degree of success compared to one you start from scratch.

You'll also get a recording of Q&A sessions, some other bonuses and live classes.

Final Thoughts on Peter Pru's Six Figure Funnels

Getting a course from a proven funnel builder like Peter Pru is not a bad thing. As a 2 comma club winner it's clear that he knows his way around funnel building.

The question I have to ask you though is do you want to drop a grand on this course? Remember, you'll also need Clickfunnels which is $97 a month for the basic version.

With focus on funnel building, he doesnt really go into detail with the other proven methods of advertising via Facebook or Google Ads for dropshipping.

Is There an Alternative to Ecommerce Empire Builders?

If you want to compliment funnel building with other ecom dropshipping strategies and not leave anything out, then I suggest you go with eCom Elites.

Franklin Hatchett is the creator of this course and also happens to be a 2 comma club winner. This is an award given by Clickfunnels when you reach $1 Million in sales using Clickfunnels. You can read my review on eCom Elites right here to get the deets.

It's also $700 less than Ecommerce Empires, so you'll save yourself money and also learn strategies not taught in Peter's course.

  1. Hi Drew,

    Great review! I also read your review on eCom Elite (and Click Funnel). Was Ecommerce Empire also using Shopify as their suggested website platform? If not, who?

    Cheers,
    Rafael

    • Hi Rafael, yes it’s on Shopify. I wouldn’t use anthing else other than that platform. You can, but it just gets messy. Shopify makes it very easy especially with the built in payment system. No brainer really!

  2. I bought Billy Darrs Flux. Total crap!!! Can you recommend a good product that a newbie can make money with quickly. I am a member of wealthy Affiliate but so far no one has given me advice on this issue.

    • Hi DeDe, if you are looking to make money quickly, there is no course that has a magic button to enable you to do so. If that was the case everyone would be quitting their jobs. If you are willing to put in the work and realize this will take time, you can find my suggestions here. Regards, Drew

  3. Hi Drew,

    So it appears you review recommends eCom Elites vs Peter Pru’s Empire Builders Academy program?
    More value?

    I want leverage s sales funnel strategy but need guidance step by step. Regardless, we would still require a Click Funnel account?

    Regards,
