Ranking the best Amazon FBA courses of 2019

Amazon’s been in the news a lot lately.

It was the 2nd publicly-traded US company to hit a $1 trillion market cap, only a month after Apple became the first ever to do so. When you consider that Apple had an 18 years head start, though, Amazon’s feat might actually be more impressive.

Oh, and did you know that Amazon generated almost $233 billion in revenue in 2018? If only you could get a part of that…

Amazon might have made Jeff Bezos rich, but he’s not the only one cashing in on one of the world’s largest online marketplaces thanks to Amazon’s Fulfillment by Amazon program, called FBA for short.

If you haven’t heard, Amazon FBA lets aspiring entrepreneurs take advantage of Amazon’s ultra-efficient logistics and fulfillment systems so they can start their own physical product business right on Amazon’s site.

All you gotta do is pick your niche and the products while Amazon handles the rest.

But even though FBA lowers the barrier to entry for product businesses, it’s not easy to actually succeed as an Amazon seller.

Especially when you realize there are close to 2 million other sellers.

As you’d expect, there are tons of FBA courses to fill in your knowledge gaps. So many, in fact, that it’s hard to distinguish quality courses from money grabs.

I did all the distinguishing for you, though.

Without further ado, here are the best Amazon FBA courses of 2019, in my opinion.

#1. Jim Cockrum’s Proven Amazon Course 2.0

Proven Amazon Course

Jim Cockrum is a big name in Amazon selling, having been in the game since the 1990s. His Proven Amazon Course 2.0 is one of the greatest FBA courses ever made.

Well actually, Proven Amazon Course 2.0 is a collection of Amazon courses. It’s got courses on the basics, sourcing strategies, private labeling, Merch by Amazon, and international selling. There’s even an accounting class in there.

When you’re done with all the courses, there are all sorts of tools, lists, and other resources to cover all the bases. Plus, they’re always adding new stuff. You really can’t fail with all this at your fingertips.

You might think all of this will cost you an arm and a leg, but it’s only $499 either up front or with PayPal credit. Jim even gives you the option of making 3 monthly $183 to ensure his course finds its way into your hands.

#2. Matt Clark & Jason Katzenback’s Amazing Selling Machine

Amazing Selling Machine

Amazing Selling Machine is one the most well-known FBA courses on the market. It’s an 8-week long, 132 lesson course that uses what Matt and Jason call the “Momentum Learning Method”.

That just means they designed the course so you can apply each week’s lesson to your business in real time so you’ll have a successful Amazon FBA business at the end of the course.

Aside from the course content, the best part is their mentor program. Mentors are former Amazing Selling Machine students who are using the methods taught in the course and succeeding in FBA.

Amazon Selling Machine is one of the most expensive FBA courses at $4,997 dollars up front, but you can opt for 3 payments of $997 if you can’t afford that.

Sadly, Amazing Selling Machine isn’t always open. They don’t really explain when they open or close either, so the best you can do is keep your eyes peeled for the next open Amazing Selling Machine class.

#3. Philip Covington’s Ultimate Amazon Seller

Ultimate Amazon Seller

Phil Covington, a very successful Amazon seller, packed a ton of information into his Ultimate Amazon Seller course.

The course, which is hosted on Teachable, boasts 20 main modules of content, but when you include all the “resource” modules in between some of the main content, there are 33 modules!

Ultimate Amazon Seller is almost too long, but hey, who’s complaining?

Anyways, course content covers everything directly related to your business, but there’re a ton of lessons on admin tasks like accounting and finance. Glad to see it, as most courses leave that stuff out.

And like I said, there are a lot of resources scattered throughout the modules.

If the course content wasn’t enough, Phil actually mentors every single one of his students.

You get lifetime access to all that for only $497, which is way less than most other Amazon FBA courses. This is one of the best deals out there.

For an extra fee, you can actually have Phil do your product research for you too. It’s $100 per additional product except for he skips 4. So if you pay $997, you’ll have 6 full-researched products soon after your purchase.

#4. Kevin David’s Amazon FBA Ninja

Amazon FBA Ninja

Amazon FBA seems to be Kevin David’s preferred e-commerce business model, and it reflects in Amazon FBA Ninja.

His course has 8 modules just like Amazing Selling Machine, except you get the entire course as soon as you buy so you can work through at your own pace. Each module is split into parts, which are further split into videos lessons. The lessons are on Word docs, which Kevin reads to you and provides further explanation in each video lesson. He’s got some bonus modules in there too.

Kevin makes himself available to his students quite often in Amazon FBA Ninja’s Facebook group, too. He claims that he answers every single question he gets, even though he’s probably barraged with questions every day.

Once you buy Amazon FBA Ninja, you have it for life. That’s good news because Kevin’s always updating it with more content to keep up with the fast-paced, ever-shifting world of FBA.

#5. Stephen Somers’s and Robert Rickey’s Marketplace Superheroes

Marketplace Superheroes

Marketplace Superheroes is a step-by-step guide to creating a 5-7 figure Amazon FBA business. However, it’s different than other courses because it tells you to forget about untapped niches and sell products that are already selling.

In addition, they heavily emphasize selling in multiple countries in this course. In fact, it has an entire 22-lesson expansion just for selling in Europe.

Both of these aspects really set this course apart from other offerings.

Inside the course are 2 “phases” that for a total of 97 training videos split among 7 modules.

As for bonuses, there are many. One is a series of videos that covers a lot of admin stuff like accounting and cash flow management. Another is an “over-the-shoulder” video series where you watch Robert perform product research. They even included product tracking software.

There are plenty of other bonuses, and Stephen and Robert are always adding new content.

Marketplace Superheroes costs $997, or you can get on their payment plan and pay $397 per month for 3 months.

#6. Ryan Grant’s Online Selling Experiment

Online Selling Experiment

Online Selling Experiment, also known as How To Make $1,000+ Selling On Amazon, is less about broad Amazon selling. It focuses on a concept called retail arbitrage, which is the act of buying retail products and reselling them online.

In this case, Ryan Grant shows you how to build a 7 figure retail arbitrage business using Amazon FBA.

This course is hosted on Teachable. Inside, there are numerous video lessons discussing the advantages of retail arbitrage over traditional FBA and how to start making money in retail arbitrage on Amazon.

Online Selling Experiment costs only $299, but Ryan offers a 4 month payment plan of only $79 per month. This course doesn’t encompass as much as other courses, but you can’t say it isn’t dirt cheap.

#7. Tanner Fox’s Amazon Seller Mastery

Amazon Seller Mastery

Tanner became an Amazon FBA millionaire by age 21, and he teaches his methods inside Amazon Seller Mastery.

Amazon Seller Mastery’s is hosted on Teachable. It’s got 7 modules with plenty of video content in each one. For example, while some courses might touch on 2 or 3 ways to research products, Amazon Seller Mastery has 7 lessons on it. In total, there are over 50 video lessons.

The first 5 modules are the main course content, walking you from product research to marketing. The last 2 modules have a lot of resources and helpful miscellaneous information.

Tanner also gives you 2 months of direct access to him. You can ask him questions or have him review any part of your FBA business.

This one’s only $497.

#8. Beau Crabill’s Online Retail Mastery

Online Retail Mastery

Beau looks young, but this guy brings 10 years of Amazon FBA experience to his Online Retail Mastery course.

Online Retail Mastery really emphasizes suppliers. 5 of the 10 modules are about finding and vetting suppliers, then working with them and building relationships.

He threw in some extra modules with more advanced topics like ungating, multi-channel fulfillment, storage fees, reporting, and international selling.

As for the bonuses, Beau gives you scripts for communicating with suppliers, a list of tools and software that’ll help you succeed, and a resource library.

Whenever he adds new content, you get access to that for free.

At $997, this one’s a little pricy compared to others on this list. However, it’s still a pretty good course.

#9. Dan Vas’s Ecom Freedom Course

Ecom Freedom

Dan Vas isn’t as well known in Amazon selling, but his Ecom Freedom course has a lot of stuff in it nonetheless.

This course is on Teachable. Each module covers a broad range of methods for doing whatever that module covers. For example, Dan gives you 6 techniques/tools to use just to find products.

He covers nearly everything there is to cover at each stage of your FBA business. Nothing seems to be left out.

At the end is a bonus Millionaire Mindset Secrets course. While not as useful as the core content, it’s a welcome addition to everything else. It even has some Amazon-specific bonus videos.

Amazon Freedom is $497. Alternatively, you can make 2 monthly payments of $298. Pretty affordable for all that content if you ask me.

#10. Jessica Larrew’s Amazon Boot Camp

Amazon Bootcamp

The Amazon Bootcamp is another course that teach retail arbitrage on Amazon.

There are nearly 100 video lessons split among 14 modules in this course. You can access the videos from anywhere on almost any device. Makes for a convenient learning experience.

To enhance the learning experience, every single lesson comes with an overview, a transcript, and closed caption. If you’re somewhere you can’t play sound, no worries. Just follow along with the transcript and read the captions in the videos.

Once you buy, the course is yours for life. All updates are free for you.

Amazon Boot Camp has a supportive Facebook group as well. You can pop in there to ask questions or just draw on support from fellow FBA entrepreneurs.

Amazon Boot Camp seems to always be running a “flash sale”, but Amazon Boot Camp costs $495.

#11. Skip McGrath’s Complete Amazon Marketing System

The Complete Amazon Marketing System

Skip McGrath ditches flashy online courses for an old-school training manual with over 350 pages split into 2 separate volumes.

The main content is split into 4 sections. The first 3 cover setup, selling basics, and strategies. The 4th section is about wholesale sourcing. Skip gave this section its own volume.

Doesn’t sound like much, but Skip gives you 18 bonuses. These range from special reports to coupons for his other products. He even gives you two free videos on how to polybag and bubble wrap your products.

You may be wondering how Skip keeps a physical book up to date.

Well, he releases new editions every so often. In between releases, he writes blog posts, sends out bonus reports, and publishes electronic updates about every 18 months.

Unlike most courses that offer a 30-day money back guarantee, Skip gives you 90 days. If anything, that’s reassuring.

Oh, and the entire thing is only $197 with free shipping. That’s a deal.

#12. Seth Kniep’s Just One Dime Program

Just One Dime

Just One Dime is a large Amazon FBA course.

To avoid overwhelming you, however, modules are releases to your one-by-one. This makes it easier to learn and apply instead of consuming the whole course at once.

Each module covers a different stage of your Amazon FBA business. They’re called Start, Find, Build, Launch, Grow.

On top of the course content, there are 5 hour-long coaching calls each week, one for each weekday. These follow the same structure as the course, meaning you start with “Start” questions on Monday and end the week with “Grow” questions on Friday.

Just One Dime is one of the more expensive programs on here at $967 per year for the annual subscription or $167 per month for the monthly subscription. But the sheer amount of content makes it worth the price.

#13. Stephen Smotherman’s Jumpstart Amazon Course

Jumpstart Amazon Course

Stephen Smotherman’s Jumpstart Amazon course is actually a combination of an ebook and an online course. However, the content in each is identical, so you can pick which format works best for you.

This course is split into 5 sections. First, there’re 7 chapters covering the foundations. After that are a few chapters on product sourcing, pricing, and shipping to Amazon. The next section is much shorter, with only a couple chapters covering the Amazon Seller Central interface. Then the course closes out with lessons on troubleshooting and some recommendations on further learning.

Jumpstart dedicates some time to the accounting and legal sides of things, which again aren’t usually given enough attention or are left out off most courses completely.

The Jumpstart Amazon course costs $497, similar to other courses on this list.

#14. Scott Voelker’s Ecom Business Formula

Ecom Business Formula

 

Scott Voelker’s Ecom Business Formula is a course themed around future-proofing your business so you can build an FBA business sustainable for the long-term.

The course framework is based on creating a short-term plan for 90 days and a long-term plan for 12 to 18 months. There are 6 modules. The first two cover market and product discovery and validation. Then you learn product sourcing, launching your store, and diversification strategies among other things.

Scott even lays out the end goal for you. His sales page lists a bunch of specific goals you’re supposed to hit by the end of the course. To sum them up, you should have everything ready for product launch by the end of the course.

Scott doesn’t skimp on the bonuses either. Each month, you get two coaching calls with Scott and his business partner Chris. They’ll answer pretty much any question you have related to e-commerce. You also get access to their e-commerce training archives. To top it off, they give you early bird discounts to their live events.

And of course, there’s a private Facebook group.

At $1797, Ecom Business Formula is at the higher end of courses on this list. But the content inside teaches you how to bulletproof your business so it can survive in the long term. If it can do that, you’re sure to earn that money back.

#15 Theo McArthur’s How To Start An FBA Store On A Tight Budget

Theo McArthur

Not everyone has the spare capital that starting an FBA business requires, so Theo made a Udemy course teaching you how to get into FBA on a tight budget.

Core content consists of 55 lectures, 40 of which are in video format. Theo focuses on minimizing inventory expenses and maximizing efficiency since those with a tight budget can’t afford to throw away any money or time. To supplement the core content, there are a ton of downloadable resources and educational articles to read.

You even earn a little certificate of completion when you finish everything.

Although this course is geared towards beginners, experienced FBA entrepreneurs can apply the teachings inside to their own businesses. Nothing wrong with looking for ways to save money in your FBA business no matter how much you’re making.

This course normally sells for $179.99, but Udemy seems to run sales on every course they have all the time. If you wait a bit, you could grab it for like $12.

#16 Damir Serbecic’s Amazon FBA As A Private Label Business Launching Platform

Amazon FBA As A Private Business Launching Platform

Amazon FBA As A Private Label Business Launching Platform is another Udemy FBA course, but this one’s all about private labeling. If you don’t know what private labeling is, it’s essentially putting your brand name (legally and ethically) on a product made by another brand.

Inside this course is 7.5 hours of thorough video content. Damir included multiple downloadable resources to enhance your learning too.

There’re discussion boards as well so you can learn from other students that are succeeding Amazon FBA private labeling.

Damir’s course is only $19.99 on Udemy without their constant sale, but it usually drops to $11.99 like similar Udemy courses.

What’s great about these Udemy courses is you don’t spend a fortune on your education. That leaves you with plenty more money to invest in the thing that will actually make you money, aka your FBA business.

#17 Brock Johnson’s The Last Amazon FBA Course – Private Label Guide

The Last Amazon FBA Course

Brock brings 12 years of general e-commerce experience and 5 years of FBA experience to you in his Private Label Guide.

If you thought the other Udemy courses had a lot of content, then you’ll be astonished that Brock crammed 34.5 hours of video into his private label course.

Throughout these 34.5 hours, you’ll cover the entire life of your business. You start out with an intro and the basics, then work through all the other stages of building an Amazon FBA private label business. Towards the end, Brock teaches you how to defend your store and your bottom line from product hijackers and other annoyances.

Overall, Brock isn’t trying to provide you a step-by-step guide in this course. If that’s all he taught, it would be harder to apply it to other e-commerce business. Instead, the content teaches you a framework that you can apply to most e-commerce businesses.

It’s normally $199.99 on Udemy, but again, wait a bit and you could snag it for only a few bucks.

That’s It!

Those are the 17 best Amazon FBA courses of 2019. There are probably a thousand more out there, but these are the greatest in my opinion.

Whether you’re looking to break free of your 9-5, you’re seeking a new challenge, or you just want an additional income stream, all these can be accomplished through Amazon FBA.

Check out one or more of these courses if you want to cut your learning curve.

Drop Ship Lifestyle Review – Overview

Drop Ship Lifestyle is a dropshipping training program with courses, apps, and software to teach you how to dropship and make your store more profitable. It was created in 2012 by Anton Kraly, and has had multiple updates since then. The newest version of Drop Ship Lifestyle is called Drop Ship Lifestyle 7.0.

First, a bit about Anton.

When he graduated from college, he wanted that millionaire lifestyle where he could afford whatever he wanted and travel whenever he wanted. He had no idea how to get there though.

So he took a normal job while researching online business ideas, eventually discovering dropshipping after he read The 4 Hour Work Week.

As most digital nomads do, he moved to Southeast Asia and started his dropshipping business.

Over the years, he succeeded with multiple dropshipping stores.

And just as you’d expect, he came out with his own dropshipping course known as Drop Ship Lifestyle.

You’ve probably noticed his ads all over YouTube among other online course ads.

So does Drop Ship Lifestyle actually work?

Product

Drop Ship Lifestyle’s main content is the Drop Ship Lifestyle Blueprint course. This course consists of 80 video lessons split among 8 modules: Overview with 4 lessons, Niche Selection with 10 lessons, Market Research with 10 lessons, Create Your Website with 14 lesson, Get Drop Shippers with 9 lessons, Optimize for Conversions with 11 lessons, Get Traffic with 11 lessons, and Outsourcing and Automation with 11 lessons. Overview is considered Module 0, while Outsourcing and Automation is considered Module 7. Each module has a set of action tasks at the end so that you’ll have a complete dropshipping store by the end of the Blueprint.

Bonuses include the Shopify Design course, the Drop Ship Lifestyle Shopify theme, the Drop Ship Lifestyle app, the Google Ads For eCommerce course, the Paid Social Traffic course, the Selling Your Store course, the Outsourcing course, the Doing Business Abroad course, access to the Fast Business Forum, niche selection verification services, a supplier directory, a 21-day launch plan, lifetime coaching access, lifetime access to Drop Ship Labs, and priority customer support.

Each of the bonus courses expands on one of the Blueprint’s modules.

First, the Blueprint, starting with Module 0’s 4 lessons.

This module introduces you to online business and e-commerce. It also has two lessons on mindset and dropshipping ethics.

This module’s an hour and a half despite only having 4 lessons. You can probably skip it entirely if you understand online business and dropshipping already.

Module 1’s 10 lessons cover Niche Selection.

This module has lessons on pricing, product selection, picking your target market, and establishing brand loyalty.

Module 2’s 10 lessons covers Market Research.

Here, you’ll learn how to perform deeper research on your market, competitors, and potential products. Niche selection and pricing are expanded on with lessons about profit calculation and “Drop Ship Friendly” niches.

Many of the lessons in this module expand on topics introduced in Module 1.

In Module 3, you’ll Create Your Website in 14 lessons.

First, Anton introduces you to store creation and Shopify. One of the lessons has you download and install your free Drop Ship Lifestyle Shopify theme.

You’ll then walk through all the steps of store setup, from picking your domain, to uploading product, to customizing your store with themes and apps.

Module 3 has the most lessons, but Module 6 is a few hours longer.

Module 4 is called Get Drop Shippers and it’s got 9 lessons covering suppliers.

This shorter module first introduces a tier system Anton uses to rank his own dropshipping suppliers. First, you learn how to identify good suppliers. From there, Anton gives you phone and email scripts to use when negotiating with suppliers. He also included questions suppliers frequently ask. Lastly, there’s a lesson on supplier relationships.

Module 5 is called Optimize For Conversions, and it has 11 lessons.

Some of the lessons cover sales tactics like urgency and scarcity. Others cover ways to optimize site design for more conversion. There are also some lessons on reviews, social proof, and bonus offer creation.

Module 5 is all about tweaking your site for more conversions. You learn all this before learning how to get traffic to maximize your return on your ad spend.

In Module 6, you’ll learn how to Get Traffic in 11 lessons.

Module 6 covers both free and paid traffic, although paid traffic gets much more attention. Topics like SEO, Google Adwords, sales funnels, and ad retargeting are all touched on here.

Module 7 has 11 lessons on Outsourcing and Automation.

The first half of this module teaches you how to automate various parts of your business, such as abandoned carts and order tracking. Towards the end, you receive lessons on hiring and you get some downloadable templates for creating standard operating procedures.

Overall, the Blueprint is somewhat useful, but it’s really basic. I mean, you can learn Module 0’s information in 1 Google search, and Module 3’s content could be pieced together relatively quickly for free as well.

The first mini course is the Shopify Design course.

In here, you’ll get lessons on creating a high-converting Shopify store. Domain names, themes, menus, discount codes, and analytics are some of the topics taught.

It’s basically a more thorough Blueprint Module 3.

Anton’s highest-converting traffic source is Google, so he included a Google Ads For E-Commerce course.

There are 25 lessons in the Google Ads for E-Commerce course. The content primarily covers Adwords, Product Listing Ads, and Search Text and Display ads. Sales funnels, metrics, and performance tracking are covered as well.

Paid Social Traffic course covers other social media paid traffic methods.

After learning social media marketing basics in the first section, the next 4 each cover a different social media platform. These social media platforms are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. Then you learn how to put it all together in the last section.

Whether you want to leave dropshipping behind or “flip” stores, there’s the Selling Your Store course.

In Selling Your Store, there are lessons on preparing your store for sale, how to maximize the profit from selling your store, and some tips on flipping stores for those interested in doing so.

The Outsourcing course expands on the Blueprint’s Module 7.

First, you learn when you should and shouldn’t outsource your work, as outsourcing at the wrong time could cost you a lot of money. Once you’ve learned the when, you learn where to find VAs or freelancers and how to evaluate who to hire.

The Doing Business Abroad course helps dropshippers cross international lines.

Doing Business Abroad covers business setup, contacting suppliers, pricing, shipping, and marketing for entrepreneurs outside the US. This course is especially useful if you’re outside the US and want to take advantage of the lucrative US market.

Then, there’re the other bonuses.

The Drop Ship Lifestyle app has some automation features, but there are much better apps out there you can get for free, such as Oberlo.

Fast Business Forum is Drop Ship Lifestyle’s private online community with over 8,000 students. On there, students can discuss their successes and failures in dropshipping.

Drop Ship Labs is where Anton puts all his scripts, standard operating procedures, checklists, and other documents.

As for niche selection verification, Anton’s team will verify whether or not your niche could be profitable. Another store-related bonus they give you is a 21-day launch plan, so you have a step-by-step process to follow before you officially launch your store.

The supplier directory they give you has over 8,400 companies you can contact, so you have endless options there.

You also get coaching calls with Anton and his team of coaches.

Lastly, their customer service is available to members around the globe 24/7.

Drop Ship Lifestyle has 2 upsells. One is their Ultimate subscription and the other is the Done For You Web Design package.

The Ultimate subscription gives you everything contained in a premium subscription, but it also adds a done-for-you Shopify store, 1 year of private coaching, a ticket to this year’s Drop Ship Lifestyle annual retreat, and access to recordings of these annual retreats.

When you buy the Done For You Web Design package, Drop Ship Lifestyle’s in-house web designers will build you a custom, high-converting niche store from scratch. This includes the site itself, test products, and your own custom store logo.

Pricing

Drop Ship Lifestyle’s Premium subscription costs $2,997 up front with no monthly payment options. However, I found a sales page with a $1500 discount.

The Ultimate subscription will run you $4,997 with no monthly payment options.

The Done For You Web Design costs $1,297. Your only opportunity to buy it appears on the sales page.

At first, you think you have to “apply” for the Ultimate subscription. When you click apply, you’re taken through a short questionnaire that culminates with Anton asking for some contact information.

He could be doing this to qualify his customers, but it really sounds like a way for him to collect your email to try and rope you back in if you decide against paying $4,997.

Way back in 2012, the price was as low as $250. Just goes to show how popular dropshipping has become in recent years.

Affiliate Program

Drop Ship Lifestyle has an affiliate program, but you have to buy Drop Ship Lifestyle to become an affiliate.

Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any data on the affiliate program. Given Drop Ship Lifestyle’s high price tag I assume it can make you a lot of money if you’re good at selling the course.

The affiliate program used to be available to everyone. It was only recently closed to everyone that isn’t a customer because too many people on Clickbank were rehashing generic reviews in an attempt to make some easy affiliate bucks.

Recap

Drop Ship Lifestyle is not a scam. The information and bonuses work well enough, but it’s really expensive compared to similar products.

Oh, but there’re all those bonus courses, right?

Well, they just expand on the Blueprint lessons. That means Anton could’ve just made those part of the Blueprint, which is the supposed to be the main product. I think he split the bonus courses from the Blueprint on purpose to make it seem like you’re getting a ton of value.

If you were to integrate the bonus courses with the Blueprint, the breadth and depth of content would be on par with something like Ecom Success Academy.

Did I mention that Ecom Success Academy is around $500 less and also includes a bunch of bonuses?

Fred Lam’s Zero Up is even cheaper at half the price of Drop Ship Lifestyle (and offers payment plans) for the same dropshipping training content and only slightly less tools and bonuses.

So Drop Ship Lifestyle might work, but there aren’t many reasons to buy it when there are alternatives that are almost as good (if not better) for less money.

Project Life Mastery Review – Is Stefan James’s self-improvement platform a scam?

Project Life Mastery is an online self-improvement education platform that offers several products and resources.Project Life Mastery

In our Project Life Mastery review, we’ll let you know if you should check out Project Life Mastery’s products.

Self-improvement is such an easy market to get into because it’s so broad. You’ve got the big 3 niches: health/fitness, wealth, and relationships. Not only that, but tons of people are willing to pay you if you can persuade them that your course or book is their ticket to massive improvements in their lives.

That means there’s a lot of fluff out there. You see the same basic mindset content being peddled by a ton of gurus looking to make a quick buck off people’s desire to improve.

Project Life Mastery’s main focus is online business, which you’ll notice through its course offerings. However, Project Life Mastery has plenty of free and paid content covering health/fitness and relationships as well.

Naturally, you might be skeptical of Project Life Mastery, as it could be yet another site selling vague “mastery” courses and profiting off people’s pain points without actually helping them.

Project Life Mastery – Overview

Project Life Mastery is a self-improvement education platform full of courses and other resources. It was created in 2012 by Stefan James Pylarinos.

Stefan’s version of his background is pretty vague. He went from shy, unhappy 17 year-old to self-actualized internet millionaire through a journey of self-improvement. Along the way, he started multiple businesses, most of them relatively successful.

Not everyone’s life is some rags-to-riches movie, though. And anyways, the man seems genuine. He works closely with at least 3 charities to build schools in impoverished and underdeveloped countries, going so far as to donate profits from some of his products directly to one of these charities.

Project Life Mastery is his website where he shares all he learned in his self-improvement journey. There’re courses, products he uses, and tons of free content too.

Continue reading our Project Life Mastery review for all the details.

Product

Project Life Mastery offers 7 courses: K Money Mastery 2.0, Affiliate Marketing Mastery, Online Business Mastery Accelerator, Life Mastery Accelerator, Morning Ritual Mastery, and How To Write A Book In Less Than 24 Hours. There’s a software program called K Optimizer that is included in Project Life Mastery’s Course section. Many of these courses are bought through Clickbank. Stefan donates a portion of the proceeds of some of his courses to charity.

In addition to the courses, Project Life Mastery runs an apparel store called Mastery Apparel. 100% of Mastery Apparel profits are donated to charity.

Other features of Project Life Mastery include the blog, Stefan’s YouTube channel, Stefan’s podcast, and a Resources page.

K Money Mastery 2.0 teaches you how to publish books on Kindle.

It has over 30 video lessons split among 21 modules. The first few lessons cover the basics like niche selection and keyword research. The rest of the course guides you from creating your title, to publishing on Kindle, to marketing the book. It then has some lessons about scaling, as well as other lessons covering smaller details. Almost every lesson has an accompanying downloadable PDF worksheet.

Bonus lessons include tax and accounting tips, business structure, scaling, outsourcing, and mindset.

K Money Mastery 2.0 is periodically updated for relevancy.

Overall, this course is best for absolute beginners.

Getting rich as a writer is a lot harder than Stefan makes it out to be, but it’s possible to create a useful amount of passive income on Kindle if you apply these lessons to your Kindle effort.

Affiliate Marketing Mastery is Project Life Mastery’s flagship course that teaches affiliate marketing.

There are 7 modules in this course. Module 1 introduces affiliate marketing and teaches you the importance of having a strategy. Module 2 gets into keyword and market research. Module 3 shows you how to create your blog and its social media, as well as use SEO. Then, you learn content creation in Module 4.

Modules 5 and 6 teaches you how to attract visitors and subscribers and then how to monetize your new audience. Module 7 closes out the course with content on performance tracking and optimization.

Bonuses include 90 days of email coaching with Stefan, 7 twice-weekly live coaching webinars, 7 webinar Q&A sessions, advanced strategies training, case studies, and interviews.

 

There are “Accelerator” courses that operate on a membership, starting with Online Business Mastery Accelerator.

Each month, Stefan hosts a live coaching webcast to give you a similar experience to his expensive 1-on-1 coaching. He covers

In addition, Online Business Mastery Accelerator comes with a broad series of videos covering online business with a slight emphasis on affiliate marketing.

3 of Online Business Mastery Accelerator’s bonuses are video trainings that cover business plan creation, some mindset stuff, and a 6-step blueprint that works for many online businesses. The other two are a private Facebook group and a list of 10 things Stefan would do if he had to start over in online business.

Life Mastery Accelerator is a broad self-improvement membership program.

Just like with Online Business Mastery Accelerator, Stefan hosts live monthly webcasts on various self-improvement topics. Each month, he covers a different topic. Topics include health, fitness, finances, career, business, social life, relationships, emotions, beliefs, mindset, and spirituality.

Stefan’s included video trainings on multiple parts of each of these topics.

The first 3 bonuses are mindset training, a self-improvement blueprint, and a private Facebook group, all in the same vein as Online Business Mastery Accelerator’s. The one bonus unique to Life Master Accelerator is a video that shows you how to set up your own weekly system to evaluate your progress in all areas of life.

I think you can learn everything he teaches by consuming free resources elsewhere on the internet, but this program is pretty cheap anyways.

Project Life Mastery naturally has a Morning Rituals Mastery course.

This course is 7 days long. Each day, you’re supposed to watch or listen to the lesson, then complete each lesson’s worksheet. Stefan structured the course so that you’ll end up with a custom morning ritual that works for you, rather than just learning his morning ritual.

I find it funny that someone actually made a course on morning rituals, let alone one with such a long sales page, but it’s cheap. You’re basically paying someone a few bucks to hold you accountable to your morning routine.

Stefan will also teach you How To Write A Book In 24 Hours even if you’re bad at writing.

The course consists of 11 video lessons with accompanying PDF worksheets. Stefan teaches you his 10-step method for writing books quickly. There’re lessons on coming up with topics when you can’t think of any, writing killer titles, and more.

Pair this course with K Money Mastery 2.0 and K Optimizer for maximum Kindle profits.

K Optimizer is a software program for Kindle publishers.

It keeps track of all your books in one convenient location. K Optimizer also allows you to track up to 50 keywords, giving you a glimpse of your book’s ranking for multiple keywords at once. Other features include a book formatting manager, book promotion and press release submitter tools, a Kindle book description generator, various alerts relevant to your books, and detailed reporting features for sales tracking.

Mastery Apparel is their branded apparel store.

They’ve got men’s and women’s apparel, hats, and even some neat little accessories like posters and phone cases.

100% of Mastery Apparel’s profits go to 2 of Stefan’s favorite charities, We.org and Imagine1day. Both charities build schools and similar facilities in countries like Ethiopia, Kenya, and Tanzania.

The Resources page is basically Stefan’s affiliate income stream.

Not only are his courses listed again on this page, but there’s a huge list of products he uses accompanied by affiliate links. I saw stuff on there that I’ve reviewed, like the Amazing Selling Machine and Junglescout.

Upsells

K Money Mastery 2.0 has 3 upsells. Two of them are Full Disclosure and Kindle VA Training. He upsells his 24 Hour Book program (see the Products section of this review) as the 3rd. Full Disclosure teaches advanced strategies for boosting Kindle income, while Kindle VA Training has lessons on outsourcing to virtual assistants.

The 24 Hour Book program’s first upsell is K Money Mastery 2.0, while the other two upsells are the same as K Money Mastery 2.0’s upsells.

K Optimizer has 5 upsells. 2 are subscription plans called Advanced and Master. The other 3 are the same as 24 Hour Book’s upsells. Advanced lets you track up to 250 keywords, while Master lets you track up to 1,000 keywords.

Other than the increase in trackable keywords with each subsequent K Optimizer upsell, the rest of the features remain the exact same.

Pricing

K Money Mastery costs a one-time fee of $97. Full Disclosure costs $47 per month and Kindle VA Publishing costs $197 up front.

Affiliate Marketing Mastery costs $997, but you can opt for 3 monthly payments of $397. It used to be $1,997 or 3 payments of $767, according to both his sales page and multiple reviews.

Online Business Mastery Accelerator costs $97 per month or $997 per year. Life Mastery Accelerator costs $29 per month or $297 per year. Morning Ritual Mastery costs $37 one time, while How To Write A Book In Less Than 24 Hours costs $27 one time.

K Optimizer costs $27.77 per month. The Advanced subscription bumps that up to $37.77 per month, while the Master subscription costs $77.77 per month.

None of his courses are that pricy aside from Affiliate Marketing Mastery. Most of these are great deals.

Also, it’s worth noting that Stefan donates 10% of all Affiliate Marketing Mastery’s and Morning Ritual Mastery’s profits to a charity called Change Heros that builds schools in Ecuador and Kenya. Might help him sell more copies of the course, but hey, can’t hate him for helping those in need.

Affiliate Program

Project Life Mastery has affiliate opportunities for each course, but they aren’t unified into one affiliate program.

K Money Mastery 2.0 affiliates can earn 50% commission per referral. Full Disclosure upsells earn you 25% recurring commissions, while Kindle VA Training and 24 Hour Book upsells earn you 50% commissions.

24 Hour Book’s commission structure is the same as K Money Mastery 2.0’s, but the change in price depending on which one is upsold can slightly alter your commission amount. Both programs are done through Clickbank and JVZoo.

Affiliate Marketing Mastery affiliates can earn 50% commissions on all referrals, meaning you can earn $498.50 per one-time fee referral and $595.50 per referral that opts for monthly payments. One sale every other day nets you 6 figures per year. You do have to apply, though, and Stefan doesn’t take everyone.

Weirdly enough, neither Online Business Mastery Accelerator no Life Mastery Accelerator appear to have affiliate programs. Stefan doesn’t have any affiliate signup pages and neither course could be found on Clickbank.

Morning Ritual Mastery pays 50% commissions per referral. This program is also done through both Clickbank and JVZoo.

K Optimizer affiliates can earn 50% monthly recurring commissions per referrals. Upsell commissions are the exact same as 24 Hour Book’s upsell commissions except they bump up the Full Disclosure commissions to 50%. This one’s done through Clickbank.

Stefan gives you all the marketing materials you need in every affiliate program.

Recap

Project Life Mastery is not a scam, although I can see why people think so. It’s easy to brand yourself as a generic self-improvement guru so you can peddle useless mindset or online business courses that teach nothing of substance.

But Project Life Mastery isn’t one of these money grabs.

Sure, the course quality isn’t mind-blowing, but neither are the prices. Not to mention the sheer amount of free content available on the site through Stefan’s blog, YouTube, and podcast.

And I don’t know any scammers who started an apparel store that donates all its profits to charity. Stefan’s got good intentions.

Funnel Scripts Review – Does Russell Brunson’s copywriting software work?

Funnel Scripts is a copywriting software program that simplifies copywriting by providing sales copy scripts.Funnel Scripts

In our Funnel Scripts review, I’ll lay out all the details of this software program.

Direct response copywriting is sales through the written word. Picking the right words and their arrangement to sell your product can be the difference between making millions and going out of business.

Problem is, copywriting is a tough skill to learn. There are tons of formulas, tactics, and scripts that copywriting greats have developed, but it can be hard to master these.

Plus, the only way to truly know if your copy is good is to test it in the market and see if it sells.

Many people just outsource their copywriting to a professional, but good copywriters can charge thousands for one project.

When Russel Brunson realized this, he decided to partner with copywriter Jim Edwards to create a software program called Funnel Scripts that could serve as an automated copywriter.

Is it possible for a piece of software to write high-converting copy as well as a professional copywriter?

Read our full Funnel Scripts review below.

He’s been featured in high-profile publications like Forbes and Entrepreneur Magazine. Russell is based in Idaho.

3.) What experience does Russell have? Russell’s first internet marketing success came in his college years when he sold DVDs about potato guns. After that, he became a part of several network marketing companies, some of which he rose to the top in and won prizes. He created Clickfunnels after encountering obstacles and limitations in his network marketing career. Etison LLC is the name of his current business that sells Clickfunnels, Funnel Scripts, and related products.

4.) What books has Russel Brunson written? Russell Brunson is the author of DotCom Secret, Expert Secrets, 108 Proven Split Test Winners, and Funnelhacker Cookbook.

5.) Who is Jim Edwards? Jim Edwards is a copywriter, entrepreneurs, author, speaker, mentor, and coach. He combined his copywriting talents with Russell Brunson’s mastery of sales funnels to create Funnel Scripts, which is a joint venture between the two of them.

6.) What experience does Jim have? Jim started in and excelled at real estate and banking, but he left to try his hand at entrepreneurship. He tried and failed at many businesses before finding success in copywriting. Jim founded his own copywriting education business called Guaranteed Response Marketing, LLC, where he sells multiple copywriting educational products. He also has a rather large catalog of books on topics ranging from mindset stuff, to copywriting, to how to write a business book.

7.) What’s included in Funnel Scripts? Funnel Scripts’s main feature is the collection of scripts for sales material. There are scripts for short and long form sales letters, landing pages, general ads, email subject lines, email body copy, surveys, Amazon/e-commerce copy, Facebook ads, webinar slides, calls to action, and more. In addition, there are 6 downloadable “Wizards”: Perfect Webinar Wizard, Video Sales Letter (VSL) Wizard, Easy Survey Wizard, Star Story Solution Wizard, Masterclass Wizard, and Podcast & Facebook Live Wizard. Bonuses include funnel templates, Funnel Scripts Blueprints,  monthly training calls, a recording of one of Russell’s trainings, and Jim Edwards’s Copywriting Secrets Masterclass.

8.) What is copywriting? Copywriting is any writing for advertising, marketing, or public relations purposes. When people use the word copywriting, they are usually referring to “direct response” copywriting. Direct response copywriting is meant to drive the sale NOW rather than later, meaning there’s a call to action at the end. In other words, direct response copywriting is sales in written form. However, thanks to the internet, the definitions of copywriting and general content writing have blurred to the point where some people call blog posts “copywriting”.

9.) What are some examples of direct response copywriting? Any mail you receive that’s urging you to make a decision today is direct response copy. An example of this would be prequalified credit card offers. More direct response copy is moving online, though. Those “salesy”-looking sales pages for online courses urging you to “BUY NOW” are direct response pieces of copy. Sales emails are also considered direct response if they have a call to action at the end.

10.) What are some common copywriting formulas? One of the most popular is Problem Agitate Solution, or PAS. This involves making the customer aware of the problem, amplifying the pain they feel from the problem through storytelling, then presenting your product/service as the solution. Another formula is Attention, Interest, Desire, Action, or AIDA. AIDA involves grabbing attention with a compelling headline, building  interest with your first paragraph and an attention-grabbing copy structure, creating desire by bridging the gap between their problems and how your product/service can help them, then urging action with a strong call to action. Calls to action are typically accompanied by urgency or scarcity to help drive the sale.

11.) What is a video sales letter? A video sales letter is just a sales letter in video form. They are structured the same way, but video sales letter can be better because videos stimulate more of the senses and it’s easier to convey emotion. All those videos on sales pages for online courses are video sales letters.

12.) How do you create pieces of sales copy using the scripts? First, pick which script you want to use. Then, all you need to do is fill in the appropriate copy in each box. Each box has a short explanation above it and a prompt below it so you can envision what the copy will look like on the completed piece. Once you’re done, click “Build” and you’ll have your completed copy. The bolded sections are the copy you wrote, while everything else is part of the template. Each script is accompanied by a short tutorial video if you need help.

13.) How do I get my completed sales copy off Funnel Scripts to use elsewhere? You can either download your copy or email it. To download it, click “Get Results” and choose which format you’d like your download to be in.

14.) What is the Funnel Scripts webinar? Russel and Jim hold a 2 hour webinar to teach you why your copy isn’t converting and how to fix it, but it’s essentially a long video sales pitch at the beginning of their marketing funnel. It’s 2 hours long, so block out 2 hours if you really want to watch the whole thing. If you want to watch it, they recommend watching on your desktop or laptop and jotting down notes.

15.) Do I have to watch the webinar? No. You can skip directly to the sales page if you don’t want to watch the webinar.

16.) Is it possible to get Funnel Scripts for free? Kind of. Russel Brunson’s Funnel Builder Secrets product includes a full year of Funnel Scripts if your buy it.

17.) How much does Funnel Scripts cost? Funnel Scripts costs you a 1-time fee of $797.

18.) Does Funnel Scripts offer any subscription payment options? No. Funnel Scripts used to offer annual subscriptions of $497 per year, but they recently switched to their one-time fee of $797.

19.) Does Funnel Scripts have a free trial? Yes, but it’s quite limited as they only let you build a small sales letter. Go here to access the free sales letter trial.

20.) Does Funnel Scripts have any upsells? Yes. They are Clickfunnels and Funnel Builder Secrets.

21.) What is Funnel Scripts’s refund policy? Funnel Scripts offers a 30-day money back guarantee.

22.) Does Funnel Scripts have an affiliate program? Yes, it’s part of the Clickfunnels affiliate program. Clickfunnels calls it a Joint Venture program. Affiliates can earn 40% one-time commissions per affiliate sale of Funnel Scripts, but since this is Clickfunnels’s affiliate program, you can sell Russell’s other products like Clickfunnels and Funnel Hacks. If you have a Clickfunnels affiliate account, then you don’t need to sign up. Otherwise, you have to create a Clickfunnels affiliate account to start selling Funnel Scripts.

23.) What is Etison LLC’s BBB rating? A+.

24.) Is Funnel Scripts a scam? No. It’s packed full with proven copywriting scripts and tons of useful bonuses. Plus, it’s a lot easier to identify when software tools are scams, so if this was a scam, it probably wouldn’t exist.

25.) Comparable products: Automatic Script, SalesCopyMaker, ScriptDoll

Funnel Scripts Review – Overview

Funnel Scripts is a copywriting software program with scripts for a “fill-in-the-blank” copywriting experience. It was created as a joint venture between Clickfunnels founder Russell Brunson and copywriter Jim Edwards.

Russell Brunson is credited in part with popularizing formal sales funnels. Just head to the sales page of most online courses and you’ll see Clickfunnels in the domain name, as well as the Clickfunnels widget that pops up at the bottom of the page.

Jim Edwards is a professional copywriter who now mainly sells copywriting educational products through his business, Guaranteed Response LLC.

Sales funnel expertise and copywriting knowledge are a powerful duo, so Russell and Jim partnered to create a product that does a little bit of both.

Keep reading our Funnel Scripts review to find out more about this program.

Product

Funnel Scripts main content consists of scripts for sales copy, text sales letters, video sales letters, case studies, testimonials, bullet points, paid ads, web page copy, email copy and subject lines, and headlines. Each script is accompanied by a short training video that shows you how to use the script. In addition, there are 6 downloadable “Wizards”: Perfect Webinar Wizard, Video Sales Letter (VSL) Wizard, Easy Survey Wizard, Star Story Solution Wizard, Masterclass Wizard, and Podcast & Facebook Live Wizard, each with accompanying tutorial videos.

Bonuses include a training called Inception Secrets, funnel templates, Funnel Scripts Blueprints, monthly training webinars, and Jim Edwards’s Copywriting Secrets Masterclass.

To build a piece of sales copy using a script, you first have to click on the script you want to use.

You’ll then be presented with a series of boxes to fill out. Each box has a short explanation above it and a prompt below it so you can envision what the copy will look like with the rest of the script.

Fill in each box with the appropriate copy, then click “Build” when you’re done. You can then download or email your completed pieces of copy for use in your marketing materials. Funnel Script can also generate a link so you can share your project with others.

If you haven’t finished a project, you can save it for later too.

There are 6 downloadable “Wizards”, starting with the Perfect Webinar Wizard.

This wizard will create your webinar page and help you write your webinar. Plus, it gives you templates for ads, promotional emails, and follow up emails so you can maximize webinar attendance with less effort.

Russell himself uses this wizard to create all his webinars.

The Video Sales Letter Wizard helps you with one of the hardest types of sales materials.

This Wizard will take the information you fill out and give you two scripts to choose from, each based on a different copywriting formula. One is based on AIDA (see FAQ #10) and the other is based on a formula called “The Great Big Promise”.

This one takes 20-30 minutes to fill out, but it’s much easier than writing an entire video sales letter script yourself.

Surveys can be used to increase email opt-ins. The Survey Wizard helps you make professional-looking surveys.

The Survey Wizard asks you a series of questions about your funnel and your survey. Some information it asks for includes subject, target audience, and keywords.

When you answer these questions, Survey Wizard may ask additional questions in case the survey it generated isn’t tailored to your audience.

Storytelling is powerful, especially in copywriting, and Star Story Solution Wizard makes storytelling effortless.

Start Story Solution Wizard helps you craft compelling stories that drive your audience to buy your product. It can take up to an hour to fill everything out, but it’s worth it when you have a million-dollar story.

Masterclass Wizard helps you create your own masterclass.

Not only will Masterclass Wizard guide you through the creation of your marketing materials, but it’ll also assist with content creation for the masterclass itself.

The last wizard is Podcast and Facebook Live Wizard.

As the name suggests, this one provides templates and scripts for podcast and Facebook live interviews. It also helps you create promotional materials for the interviews.

Russell and Jim included 5 funnel templates.

They’ve included sales funnels, webinar funnels, “invisible” funnels for paid webinars, opt-in funnels, and free + shipping funnels.

Funnel Blueprints provides further funnel training.

This bonus walks through all the important funnel types, including magic bullet funnels, invisible funnels, opt-in funnels, and more.

Jim puts on monthly copywriting webinar trainings.

On these live group trainings, Jim teaches Funnel Scripts customers how to write better sales copy. There are also lessons on basic funnel-building and using the copy scripts properly.

Finally, Jim Edwards was generous enough to include his Copywriting Secrets Masterclass as a bonus.

There are 6 modules that cover topics like copywriting basics and tactics, how to research your market, and structuring your offer. Jim included a Q&A module too.

Upsells

Funnel Scripts has 3 upsells. They are Clickfunnels, Funnel Builder Secrets, and Funnel Hacks.

Clickfunnels, Russell’s flagship product, is an online sales funnel builder. It lets you build a complete sales funnel without juggling multiple web pages, domains, and other online assets. Many internet marketers and course salespeople rely on Clickfunnels to sell their products. You’ll notice how prevalent it is once you visit some sales pages.

Funnel Hacks is a training program that teaches you how to build sales funnels. It consists of a 6-week, video-based masterclass that teaches you how to build many different types of funnels. It gives you a free 6-month subscription to Clickfunnels so you can actually apply what you learn in Funnel Hacks. Bonuses include sales scripts, email sequence templates, and a list of “traffic hacks” that help you boost traffic to your funnel. Funnel Hacks even gives you 6 months of free Funnel Scripts.

Funnel Builder Secrets is like an upgraded version of Funnel Hacks. You get access to nearly everything Funnel Hacks provides, but Funnel Builder Secrets gives you more advanced funnel education too.

Funnel Builder Secrets also has two upsell plans. The first upsell increases your free Clickfunnels subscription from 6 months to 12 months. The highest upsell gives you 8 coaching calls with a Clickfunnels coach.

Pricing

Funnel Scripts costs $797 once, then you have it for life.

Clickfunnels costs $97 per month for the Startup basic subscription and $297 per month for the Enterprise upsell subscription.

Funnel Hacks costs $1,997 for a year subscription. Alternatively, you can pay $997 for 6 months of Funnel Hacks.

Funnel Builder Secrets costs $1,997 for the base level product, $2,997 for the intermediate level product, and $5,997 for the highest level product.

Funnel Scripts used to cost $497 per year, but they recently changed over to the one-time payment model. The old model was like paying for a cheap, automated copywriter, but now you pay one large fee and get unlimited access to an automated copywriter for life.

Affiliate Program

Funnel Scripts affiliate program is part of Clickfunnels’s affiliate program. Affiliates can earn 40% commission per affiliate sale of Funnel Scripts, meaning you can earn $318.80 per sale.

You can also sell Russell’s other products at the same 40% commission rate. For subscription products like Clickfunnels, you’ll earn 40% recurring commissions.

Then, there’s an MLM-inspired type of affiliate designation called Super Affiliate. When one of your referrals signs up for the affiliate program, you become a Super Affiliate.

Super Affiliates earn 5% of all their downline’s earnings on top of the 40% rate on their own personal affiliate sales.

Clickfunnels offers an additional incentive to its top affiliate enrolled in Clickfunnels called the Dream Car Contest. Once an affiliate reaches 100 active Clickfunnels referral subscribers, they qualify for their “dream car”. They can go out, lease the car of their choice, provide proof of their lease, then Clickfunnels will mail a $500 monthly check for the car payment. If an affiliate can reach and maintain 200 subscribers, that check goes up to $1,000. This check is on top of your other recurring affiliate earnings.

That’s for Clickfunnels, though, not Funnel Scripts.

Commissions are held for 30 days to hedge against potential refunds. Commissions are paid out every Monday.

The affiliate program provides marketing materials to save you time and help you make more sales. No need to write copy or create your own marketing materials if you don’t want to.

To train you in affiliate marketing, Russell puts on a free, 100-day Clickfunnels Affiliate Bootcamp. It covers marketing strategies and tactics that work especially well when selling Russell’s suite of products.

If you have a Clickfunnels account already, you’re automatically an affiliate. Otherwise, you have to fill out their affiliate application to create an account. You don’t need to purchase any products to become an affiliate.

Recap

Funnel Scripts is not a scam. It’s no replacement for a professional, human copywriter, but it’s a great tool if your goals and budget don’t justify hiring a copywriter for thousands of dollars.

Yeah, the affiliate program’s got a hint of MLM due to the downline and passive income. However, the affiliate program isn’t the focus. It’s not like Power Lead System, where the company itself relies solely on affiliate commissions to stay afloat.

Plus, good copywriting is necessary for every industry, not just course-selling. Unless you have the need and money for a copywriter, Funnel Scripts will do the job just fine.

Amazon FBA Ninja Review – Overview

Amazon FBA Ninja is a course that teaches you how to start, build, and scale a successful Amazon FBA business. It was created by Kevin David, a relatively unfamiliar internet marketer.

Kevin graduated college Summa Cum Laude with an accounting degree, starting at Big 4 accounting firm PwC. Accounting busy season’s 80-hour work weeks must’ve gotten the best of him because he jumped ship after a few years and became a privacy consultant for Facebook in Menlo Park.

He liked his Facebook gig more, but working for someone else didn’t sit well with him. When he discovered Amazon FBA one late night at the Facebook office, he pulled the trigger and started his own FBA business.

It didn’t take him long to achieve success.

The Amazon product research tool Junglescout even has a case study about the guy.

Since his FBA success, he started his online course company THATLifestyleNinja.

You probably noticed Kevin is driven by his hate for the 9-5 and his desire to free others from their desk jobs. He even says so on his website. All of THATLifestyleNinja’s courses show students how to quit their jobs and work for themselves online.

Amazon FBA Ninja is his Amazon FBA course. Should you buy it?

Read the rest of our Amazon FBA Ninja review below.

Product

Amazon FBA Ninja’s main content consists of 8 modules split into multiple parts, with each part containing multiple video lessons. The modules are Product Research with 3 parts, Suppliers and Shipping with 3 parts, Listing Optimization and Ranking with 3 parts, Product Launch Strategy with 2 parts, Email Follow Up and Review with 2 parts, Amazon PPC and AMS with 3 parts, Facebook Marketing with 3 parts, and Millionaire Seller Hacks with 3 parts.

All the course content is updated regularly to keep up with market trends and changes in FBA rules. Since you have lifetime access to Amazon FBA Ninja, all these updates are free for you once you buy the course.

There is also a bonus module that teaches topics like niche selection, software, and international selling. Other bonuses include access to a private Facebook group with over 4,000 other members and live Q&A sessions in that group. Bonuses can be accessed in the “STUDENT NINJA EXTRAS” module.

Product Research introduces just that. Product research.

Before you get to researching potential products, Part 1 gives you some Amazon FBA advice and resources. It also walks you through how to set up your account in a way that makes your FBA venture as lucrative as possible.

Part 2 dives straight into product research, covering everything from free research tools like Google Keyword Planner to research methods for targeting international markets. It even talks about Junglescout, an Amazon tool that I’ve also reviewed.

Part 3 is much shorter and covers miscellaneous information like fees and pricing mistakes.

Module 2 covers Suppliers and Shipping.

Part 1 preps you for supplier outreach. You’re given tips on supplier relations, templates to maximize supplier response, and some of Kevin’s shipping/supplier resources.

Then Part 2 shows you how to take these tips and templates to find a great supplier for your product. First, Kevin covers finding the cheapest Alibaba products and shipping them directly from China to the Amazon FBA Warehouse to save on product costs. The process is similar to dropshipping. Then, you’ll learn about how to strike deals with American manufacturers to save money and time on shipping if you live in the US.

Part 3 just covers product inspection. Kevin shares companies he trusts to inspect products for quality so you can save time inspecting all the products yourself.

Module 3 shifts gears towards Listing Optimization and Ranking.

In Part 1, there are a series of videos containing preliminary information about listing optimization. These videos show you how to “steal” competitor keywords while shielding your own keywords from their eyes. It’ll also touch on pricing and trademark issues, and of course there’s a list of listing optimization resources included.

Part 2 walks you step-by-step through creating a “world-class” Amazon listing. Keyword ranking, bullet copywriting, and mistakes to avoid are all taught. Kevin also shows you how to use product page videos to demonstrate the product in action to increase sales.

Part 3 covers what to do when you run out of stock and how to avoid doing so. It’ll also teach you what to do when other sellers “hijack” your listings by selling the same product your brand sells.

Module 4 get into Product Launch Strategy.

This module only has two parts. Part 1 gives a few lessons on video ads and finding customer questions about your products. As always, there are product launch resources.

Part 2 covers everything about the launch. Things like pricing, advertising, customer email collection, running sales, and product launch services are discussed.

Module 5 has 2 sections about email marketing, focusing on Email Follow Up and Reviews.

As always, Part 1 tells you what you need to know before creating email campaigns and gives you some email marketing resources. Kevin covers

Part 2 is basically a mini email copywriting course.  You’ll learn a few email marketing and copywriting tactics to build rapport with customers, maximize conversions, and bring back repeat business.

Module 6 gets into paid traffic through Amazon PPC and AMS campaigns.

Part 1’s really short. All Kevin does here is tell an anecdote about flying to Brazil by spending money on Pay Per Click (PPC) ads and explains why you need to use Amazon Marketing Services (AMS) to succeed in FBA.

Part 2 covers the entire ad campaign process. You start by learning keyword research, then Kevin shows you a ton of other details to be aware of when crafting your ad campaigns.

Then in Part 3, you learn about PPC campaign optimization. Kevin shows you how to find the keywords you’re ranking for to fine tune your ads, as well as how to optimize multiple campaigns in only minutes.

Facebook Marketing is a very broad topic, so it gets its own module in Module 7.

Part 1 of this module introduces you to Facebook ads. You’ll learn how to create custom Facebook ads audiences based on your real Amazon FBA customers as well as how to build highly specific Facebook groups relevant to your Amazon business.

Part 2 goes right into Facebook ads. You’ll learn how to become an expert at targeting the correct audience with Facebook ads. The process of building a sales funnel with Clickfunnels has its own video lesson as well.

Like any business course, Part 3 gives some introductory lessons on scaling and automation.

Lastly, there’s Module 8 that covers Millionaire Seller Hacks.

This module has tons of other details for polishing your business that didn’t fit in neatly with other modules.

Part 1 is all about prevention. It teaches how to prevent hackers from taking over your account, how to find the profiles of reviewers, and even how to remove negative seller feedback. That last one’s a bit questionable, but as long as you are selling useful products, then no big deal.

Part 2 is crammed full of other tactics to increase sales. For example, you learn how to get your products to show up in “frequently bought together”, incentivizing customers to bundle your products together. Another topic Kevin covers is using multiple accounts to mitigate the risk of having your seller account suspended. Other scaling topics like hiring virtual assistants and cross-listing on eBay are also taught.

And if your seller account gets suspended, refer to Part 3. Kevin’s got a few secrets for recovering your account after a suspension.

I like the structure of each module. Part 1 introduces you with information on the topic, Part 2 shows you how to apply the information successfully, and Part 3 teaches you how to tweak whatever the module covers to stay profitable.

The Bonus Module contains several more video lessons as well as some bonus resources.

The first lesson is about niche selection. Kevin teaches you how to identify untapped niches that have the potential to make you thousands.

Then, there’s a lesson entirely dedicated to software. You’ll learn how to use product research tools and other software to maximize profits and save time.

After that is a lesson on Amazon selling with no USA bank account. Sellers outside the US will find this lesson helpful.

Lesson 4 covers Merch by Amazon, Amazon’s print-on-demand service. The service is simple to use, but Kevin’s video lesson will teach you how to make $10,000 a month just selling print-on-demand products on Amazon.

The last lesson is for UK sellers.

There’s a Facebook group for the Amazon FBA Ninja community.

Here, you can discuss successes and failure with other students. You can also ask questions for either the group or Kevin to answer.

There are links to discounted FBA resources in the group as well.

This group is not to be confused for “FBA Ninjas!”, the public group for anyone interested in Amazon FBA.

There’s some good info in this group, but many have complained it’s mostly people showing off their progress. Nothing wrong with showing your progress to the community you’re in, but it’s not very helpful for everyone else.

In the Facebook group, Kevin holds live Q&A sessions.

Unlike other Facebook groups, Kevin claims he answers every single question his students send in. If true, that level of access is not seen in many other groups.

Upsells

Amazon FBA Ninja’s 1 true upsell is the Shopify Ninja course. Shopify Ninja has 5 modules that cover finding products, locating dropshipping suppliers, Shopify store optimization, marketing, and scaling.

Bonuses include bonus videos similar to Amazon FBA Ninja’s, a done-for-you sales funnel, and access to a Shopify Ninja private Facebook group.

Shopify Ninja’s structure is similar to Amazon FBA Ninja’s.

Pricing

Amazon FBA Ninja costs $1,997 up front. Alternatively, you can buy the course for 5 monthly payments of $599 if you can’t afford the $1,997 up front.

Shopify Ninja costs $997, or you can opt for 3 monthly payments of $497.

The sales page for Amazon FBA Ninja has a struck-through price of $3,994, but I don’t think the price is moving an inch from $1,997 anytime soon.

Affiliate Program

Amazon FBA Ninja has an affiliate program. Unfortunately, there is no data on potential affiliate earnings anywhere, not even in the affiliate program itself.

But if you join, the affiliate program provides you with all the marketing materials you need. All you have to do is use them to sell Amazon FBA Ninja to your audience.

For some reason, many of these course creators make it unnecessarily difficult to find their affiliate signup page, so here it is.

Just fill in your personal and payment information, click Create Account, and you should be ready to start as an affiliate.

Recap

Amazon FBA Ninja is not a scam. It’s a pretty good course, even for the price. Like I said earlier, you should be willing to invest in your education if you’re willing to shell out thousands to buy inventory ahead of time.

Unsure if you want to get Amazon FBA Ninja? I reviewed another Amazon FBA course, too. It’s not always open though, so if you can’t find a way to join, you might have to play the waiting game if you don’t want to buy Amazon FBA Ninja.
