We are NOT fans of dropshipping models in this community for very good reason. For every success story you'll hear, you'll hear 100 disaster stories. I'm convinced that the ONLY people who are truly excited about the model (at scale) are those who sell a course about it. Today I discuss what dropshipping is, the only RIGHT way to do it, and perhaps best of all, a model that we are proving over and over again every day (with 100s of recent success stories from students) is far superior to dropshipping because it has ALL of the benefits, with none of the risks. Our model is also scalable, newbie friendly, sellable as an asset and can be entirely hand-free! Let us know what you think by joining our free Facebook group and sharing your feedback!
