Good but not suited to sellers outside the US
I completed the entire course in about a week after spending an hour or two a night watching course videos and making notes. I paid $347 For the course. In hindsight I wouldn’t tell my past self to make the purchase. I’m from the UK and in conversation with Tom on Instagram he made it clear that the strategy is completely possible outside the US. While this is technically true, selling outside the US relies on wishy washy, unprofessional approaches like asking for paypal details to receive payments. In the Facebook group I found that many others felt similarly to me. The course was clearly designed for US customers and, in my opinion, should’ve been advertised that way. Alternatively I would’ve appreciated further detail towards approaches for those of us outside the US. When I tried to sell to the US from the UK, this didn’t seem to work either. Facebook knows your location, I believe this is why on the many listings I posted I received little to no views I’m the month they were up for. Also the hack (thank you card) that sellers from this course heavily rely on is just unrealistic to use from outside the US In conclusion, I believe Tom and Eric made a great resource but needed to disclose that the course target audience is US sellers. Alternatively I believe more needs to be done to included to guide sellers outside the US. Without these, to me The course wasn’t worth the large amount I paid.
