Product Description
The eCom Dave Amazon FBA Coaching Program is an online course that promises to teach you how to build a profitable business selling products on Amazon. According to its marketing and website, students can expect to “earn money selling on Amazon” through one-on-one mentorship, supplier guidance, and product launch strategies.
However, after enrolling and completing the program, my personal experience did not align with those claims.
Experience
Invested $4,000 in this course and followed it for about four months, but unfortunately ended up losing both time and money.
While the lessons sound motivational, they focus heavily on revenue numbers instead of real net profit — leaving out key details about the many hidden costs involved in running an Amazon FBA business.
For example:
-
Revenue refers to your total sales, not your actual earnings.
-
Net income (what you truly make) comes after deducting expenses such as shipping, Amazon fees, samples, inspections, barcodes, advertising, and more.
When you calculate all these costs, the actual income can be far lower than what the marketing examples suggest.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Includes one-on-one online coaching sessions.
Teaches how to contact suppliers and source products.
Provides initial product images for your first item (although it’s promoted as “3 products,” only 1is included).
Helps you set up your Amazon FBA seller account.
Cons
Does not disclose all the additional expenses (shipping, inspection, barcodes, ads, etc.) until after you start.
Encourages selling low-quality, generic Chinese products, which can lead to customer complaints and returns.
Communication with overseas suppliers can be frustrating and time-consuming.
The course does not guarantee any profit, as clearly stated in its own Earnings Disclaimer.
Some videos claim your product can rank within 3–5 days, but that typically requires $400–$700 in extra spending on ads.
Even after months of work, you could lose over $7,000 total (course + inventory) and earn little to nothing back.
Specifications
Once you pay, you gain access to a library of pre-recorded videos.
It usually takes 3–5 months to get your first product live on Amazon.
Amazon itself can become a competitor by launching a similar product.
