Dropshiply Review

Hey guys, and welcome back to Make that Sea Change – as you are all probably aware, one of the main focuses of this site is to assist you in finding good ways to earn money online so that you can fund your own sea change in whatever fashion that may be for you. Those of you familiar with my work will also know that I like to point out what it good and not so good out there so you don't get burnt with the scams. Hence, when I am emailed some details about a site that tells me that it has generated $2,593,997 in sales in less than 2 months – I can't help but check it out. So with that in mind – let's get stuck into my Dropshiply review.

Ok, so there are two main things I want to check out here – first, can I make money using the program in just 5 minutes per day? And secondly, is it worth the $36 (pro version) I paid for it?

For this review, I will run you through:

• What it is
• How it works
• Pros and Cons
• Cost
• My recommendations

Red Flags

I have to say that this is one of those programs where the sales pitch site (which is straight out of the ClickFunnels Playbook) doesn't, in my own humble opinion, do the end product justice. There are so many of the usual red flags for this program that if I wasn't looking to purchase for the purposes of this review (I mean, the did take the time to email me about it…) then I would have just closed the tab and got on with my day. But anyway, these red flags include:

• Long sales videos with lots of pitches but with no identification or demonstration of what the actual program is.
• Lots of income pages as ‘proof' that the system works – not bad for a program that has apparently just been released
• Constant reminders that “I know you have been scammed in the past, but this is different – this is the real deal”

So, back to my original questions… Can it make can I make money using this program in just 5 minutes per day? I think you could – but only after a LOT of work and some extra expense. And I am not totally sure that you could navigate this one as a total newbie but we will get to that…

Is it worth the $36.00 I spent on it? You know what, the software is professional looking and appears to do exactly what it says it will do so I don't think there would be many refund requests on this one. I have certainly paid the same amount for a lot, lot worse.

What is Dropshiply?

So I paid my 36 bucks to join and once I have accessed the members page, I am presented with what appears to be fairly comprehensive software platform that allows you to effectively create a dropshipping e-commerce site (or connect a current one if you have it set up) and import pre-screened, high selling products. In simple terms, the process works as follows:

What do you get?

Ok, so as mentioned above, there is quite a lot of functionality within this site of which about half is available for my original cost price. The rest can be either purchased as a once off or via the numerous upsells available (I will cover those below).

There is actually quite a lot here so I won't go into intricate detail on each but let's start with the offerings of the initial purchase and see if it is possible to make this program work without spending any more money (sections that require extra payments/upgrades will be signified by a $ sign).

At a glance

Product Name: Dropshiply

Founder: Devid Farah

Product Type: Dropshipping website and sales/management tool

Price: $31.95 + upsells and in-program purchases

Best For: Those looking to create or enhance a dropshipping website

Recommended: If you are a dropshipper who needs a little help in finding products or getting your business off the ground then I think you could do a lot worse than this program. I will add however that to be fully successful, you will probably need to spend a little more than just 5 minutes a day and if I am being honest, I think a total newbie might struggle to fully understand the processes needed that are not really explained – such as SEO etc.

Pros

• 30 Day money back guarantee.
• If you follow the content, you could make money.
• Video training is pretty good.

Cons

• No free trial option.
• The sales page contains many red flags.
• Not as ‘newbie' friendly as advertised.
• Success will generally need more time and money than advertised.

How much is it?

• Front End Offer $31.95 – Lite Version & $36 for Pro (usual price $197 and $297 respectively)
• Upsell 1 – Added Automation $47
• Downsell 1 – As above $37
• Upsell 2 – Access to Analyser and Reporting sections $47
• Downsell 2 – Reload of Added Automation downsell $37
• Upsell 3 – Done For You pages and products $219 – $699 (dependent upon number of products) – Monthly subscription
• Downsell 3 – Access to Analyser and Reporting sections $37
• Upsell 4 – Import Ready Product Credits $29 – $140 (70 – 1200 credits)

Do I recommend it?

Look, as I have mentioned a number of times – If you are working within the dropshipping game and need a little help, then I think you could do a lot worse than to at least purchase the base version of this software and check it out. There are a few upsells and purchases that you may need (plus a domain and hosting if you don't already have a website) however within the base package you could definitely locate and add some products to an existing site if you have one. There is also some good training available although that said, I think if you are totally new to the whole dropshipping thing then you may struggle initially here until you get your head around it all.

The only real issues I see with it are actually within the sales blurbs – there is absolutely no way that you could build an income here in “just 5 mins a day” – at least until you have a mature, traffic rich website up and running. However I would certainly not call it a scam and if you are familiar with the processes and willing to put in a bit of work (no online business will make you rich overnight), then this program could assist you in setting up a successful dropshipping business.

How does it compare to my #1 Recommendation?

As I have said, if you are looking for ways to assist you in building a successful dropshipping business, then the information and tools found here could certainly assist you in doing that. However if you are looking to build a solid and sustainable affiliate marketing business instead – or need some extra training to make your dropshipping website rank and make more sales, then I recommend that you give Wealthy Affiliate a try. You will not earn money in just 5 mins a day… But in time, with the help of Wealthy Affiliate, you could use Dropshiply to locate products to add to a solid, online business to call your very own.
