Ecom Elites Review 2023 : Is Franklin Hatchett’s Ecommerce Course Profitable?

If you’re like me, you probably didn’t know much about chatbots before getting into ecommerce. But after learning how to use them in Ecom Elites, I love ’em because of the profits they bring.

Chatbots are based on software that creates automated conversations with your visitors, which helps them to buy from your store. In this module Franklin Hatchett shows you step by step how to use chatbots to maximize sales.

Here you’ll learn how to set them up easily, program them, and run ads through them. This is an easy way to supercharge sales for any kind of product. Overall, here’s what you’ll learn in this module:

• Set up and use chatbots, including menu and comments
• Set default chat replies and chatbot sequences
• How the chatbot popup box works
• Set up your chatbot ads

In ecommerce everybody talks about sales funnels, but few people actually know how to build and them them the right way. But Franklin is a pro when it comes to building funnels for a dropshipping business, and his expertise really shows throughout this entire module.

He showed me how to use ClickFunnels, which turns out to be the funnel-building software used by most successful online stores. I strongly recommend paying special attention to all the videos in this module because you’ll learn some of his best tips here. In this module you’ll learn:

• Overview of sales funnels
• Shopify integration for funnels
• Set up Strip payments
• Set up PayPal payments
• Install a pixel into the funnel
• Add products using Clickfunnels
• Adding product variants
• Fulfilling orders through Shopify
• Funnel retargeting

In these modules, Franklin explains how to bring traffic to your store by using Google Ads and organic SEO (search engine optimization). He also goes into plenty of detail about running Google Ads, including setting up the pixels, making your Google Shopping ads, and optimizing your sales.

Just as important as Facebook and Instagram ads discussed in earlier modules, he also shows you how to get more organic traffic from Google search engines. I’ve noticed that some other e-commerce programs don’t teach you about this, but Franklin certainly does.

It’s especially important because organic traffic from SEO is always the most powerful, long-term source of buyers for your store. For my own store it’s been a great source of passive traffic, and visitors are already warmed-up and ready to buy. Overall, in Modules 8 and 9 you’ll learn about:

• The difference in traffic between Google and Facebook
• Set up your Google account the right way
• Create and target your audience
• Bidding on Google keywords
• Keyword research
• Opening a merchant account
• Organic traffic from SEO
• Building backlinks
• White hat SEO hacks

Franklin Hatchett is a top professional online seller as well as a great marketer, and his marketing ability really shines in the bonus section of his Ecom Elites course. Here you’ll find a treasure trove of tips and tricks to help sell more.

The Ecom Elites bonus section starts off with videos that show how to increase your average order value (AOV). I’ve found this content to be very helpful in my own business, and I think you will too. Next he talks about how to write a winning description for your products, which I found extremely helpful.

Although I thought I was already a pretty good writer, Franklin helped me raise my game to the next level. By following his tips on how to correctly write my product descriptions, I’ve been able to increase my store’s conversation rates.

In fact, I learn something new each time I go back and re-watch the videos in this section.

The bottom line with Franklin’s bonus content is that he isn’t shy when it comes to sharing his e-commerce sales secrets. These insider tips will help you make more money from your store.

There’s a lot of content here – Take the time to learn these secrets and your online store should do very well.

Along with what I’ve already mentioned, you’ll also learn about:

• Using warranties to increase sales and build trust
• How to get the most out of review websites
• How to spy on competitors, including through Facebook

One of the reasons that Franklin Hatchett’s Ecom Elites training program is so popular is because it’s caveman-simple. Based on my own online selling experience and what I’ve heard about other students, just by having enough discipline to watch these videos and follow through on his advice, you can earn good money with a well-built online store. Below are some success stories that really stand out.

Andrew

One of Franklin’s students named Andrew used a high-converting Shopify theme combined with the eCom Turbo theme. Within about a month after going through the training, Andrew found himself a winning product and then scaled his sales up to where he was selling more than $100,000 monthly.

Brian

Brian is one of Franklin’s standout students. By following the Ecom Elites methods, within 3 months after opening his first Shopify store he reached nearly $12,000 in sales, with nearly 600 orders in one month. He continued to grow upward from there, and I’ve heard that he has also diversified into some other online businesses too.

Phil

In the Ecom Elites community, Phil is known as a slow learner. He sort of played around with ecommerce for awhile. He started a Shopify store in 2017, but did get anywhere with it at first.

Then he stumbled onto one of Franklin’s YouTube videos, and he started using those methods to improve his sales. That’s when his sales shot upward, and now he earns several thousand dollars each month.

Brandon

Brandon was one of Franklin’s earliest students in the Ecom Elites course. He worked on his Shopify store for a few months and was generating up to $60,000 in monthly sales using only one traffic source. But then he decided to start using Facebook, and his sales skyrocketed even further.

Keep in mind that e-commerce is like anything else in life – You get out of it what you put into it. If you want to have a successful online store and you’re willing to watch the Ecom Elites videos and follow Franklin Hatchett’s advice, then you can be successful with your store.

A few people who read my other reviews have asked me – What does the Ecom Elites course look like on the inside?

So here’s a quick view showing inside the training, so you’ll have an idea of what you’re getting. I’ll show you how to navigate through it and give a short review of features found within the training pages. I wanted to be sure to include this, so you can get a first hand look inside!

Once you get your login credentials, you land on a page like this:

Here you’ll be able to access the Ecom Elites course material and buy other products. You’ll also find a Contact button for quick customer service help.

Keep in mind there’s a separate email address for them support. Also, if you want detailed answers to questions about drop shipping, just post your questions in Franklin’s Ecom Elites Facebook group. He’s often available there to answer your questions personally, which is another thing that I really like about his course.

As mentioned earlier, there are 9 work modules, plus an intro module, as well as lots of bonus content. Each module has multiple videos, and most of them are between 5 and 30 minutes long, so you can easily schedule time to watch each of them without being distracted.

Digging deeper…

Once you click on a module, you’ll see a list of each video it contains. For example, when you go to Module 3 you’ll see a list of its sections.

The video player is very flexible and easy to use, including the ability to control volume and skip back and forward. Of course, you can keep track of which videos you’ve watched by marking them as completed once you’ve seen it.

If you’re new to e-commerce and selling online, then I recommend watching each video in the same sequence that Franklin presents it. That way there’s no confusion. On the other hand, if you already have some marketing experience, then you might feel comfortable in skipping ahead – but you’ll probably want to circle back later to catch up on all topics.

There are a couple of things in my Ecom Elites Review that I don’t like it’s a short list

To be fair and impartial in this review, I’ll need to tell you about a couple of features that I don’t really like, even though many people do.

One of the main methods for generating traffic requires an initial investment

Franklin covers his four main methods of building up a store’s traffic. One of the ways to drive traffic is free, but a couple of other methods are based on paid advertising.

So, even though you can get your money back and earn a profit with those other methods, you’ll need to set aside a budget for advertising. In money is tight, don’t worry about the paid-traffic methods, just start out with the free search-engine traffic method at the beginning.

Another thing that some people would complain about but not me is the fact that the Ecom Elites course contains a whole shipload of content.

Slackers looking for a get rich quick scenario might not have the patience to watch all the videos, but that’s a bid mistake. If you want to be successful with ecommerce, take the time to watch all videos, and then re-watch the most interesting ones. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth from the content in this course.

Minor Criticism – Franklin Hatchett is an expert ecommerce teacher, but sometimes he talks too much

In the past, my biggest complaint about some other e-commerce training courses is they’re too windy and there’s not enough meaty information to sit and watch all the way through to the end of each video. Fortunately, Franklin doesn’t ramble much.

Still, you’ll probably find some content that you fast-forward through. That’s OK, he gives plenty of examples to make sure you can visualize his core concepts.

Here’s the real key to Franklin’s ability to teach people about e-commerce and marketing. He gives enough description and explanation that you’ll definitely understand the points he makes in the videos and be able to use the same tools yourself.

There are two price options. The Standard course is only $197, and the Ultimate version is only $297. Either will teach you how to be successful with ecommerce.

The Standard course has 100+ videos and totals 34+ hours, and the Ultimate has even more content. For example, in addition to everything you learn in Standard, with the Ultimate you’ll also get more:

• Sales funnel instructions
• Google Ads training
• Frank’s ready-made winning funnel template
• Ideas for top-selling products

The Ultimate program is ideal if you want to scale up quickly. The bottom line is that each of them will teach you how to sell online successfully.

Is Franklin Hatchett’s Ecom Elites course worth the price? I think so, yes. We’ve gone through several other online sales training programs, and Franklin’s is definitely the best way to get started and build a successful store quickly.

Ultimately it comes down to this – Will this ecom course help you to build a successful ecommerce business? The answer, I believe, is yes. But only if you get it and put it into action.
