Are dropshipping courses worth the money in 2024?

Let me start off by saying that most paid dropshipping courses out there are expensive, like $500+.

Now, let me ask you this question: would you rather spend your hard-earned money to improve and grow your dropshipping business, or do you want to learn dropshipping for that same amount of money?

You will learn below that there are so many ways to learn dropshipping for free.

That's awesome, right?

If you want to learn more about these "gurus" and why they are selling courses, I suggest reading my other article below:

7 Awesome free YouTube dropshipping courses

Some great information about dropshipping is on YouTube for free.

Just be careful with most of those so-called "gurus."

As I said before, their only goal is to sell you something (like a course).

I suggest watching these videos below, but if you don't like what you see or you already know it, just skip a bit.

Don't forget to take everything from these "gurus" with a grain of salt, and only apply what you like.

Don't think like, "Oh, but he made millions with that super-secret tactic - I need to do exactly that, and I will be rich tomorrow!"

No, you will not.

It takes time and hard work before you succeed; I'm sorry if that crushed your dreams, but you need to treat your dropshipping store like a real business in order to succeed!

Also, most of these "gurus" use Shopify - we cover a lot about Shopify as well - but you can use any ecommerce platform that you like. (You can find Shopify alternatives here)
