Question Thrive Learning Institute What's the Score?

Hi all,

I have recently been looking into the whole, 'buy at wholesale/ dropship and make a profit' arena as a legit long term business opportunity.

As a result i have purchased a number of 'information products' which claim to make this process quick, easy and extremely profitable.

I know, what a sucker you're thinking and on reflection your probably right, however, one product i purchased has been pretty useful and led me to this forum and for that, i'm eternally grateful.

This is my first post (other than trying to buy in the market place) and i have to take my hat off to the quality of individuals and moderators that make this forum THE best resource i have found on the subject.

I'm keen to get my business started and took a cold call from a company called 'Thrive Learning Institute' and as always i searched on this forum for information related to this company and feedback on their service.

I found nothing, suprisingly, so i thought i would start a thread to find out if anyone has come across them and if so what their experience has been?

They offer a coaching and website building service focused on helping people start their own dropshiping business.

So, first of all thanks for being such a great group of peaople and secondly, can anyone shed any light on the Thrive Learning Institute?

All the best

Do a Google on them.

A good rule of thumb regarding anything on the Internet - If they contact you first, it's probably a scam.

If you find them through a place like this, recommended by others, give it serious consideration, it still may not be right for you.

If you find them through Google or an online directory, keep in mind - position can be bought. Still, better then them SPAMMING you, as it seems in your case. Phone or email, same thing. They are scatter-shooting in the dark, hoping a pigeon falls here and there. Don't be a pigeon.

Thanks for that Pete, i couldn't find anything negative through google searching, in fact all i could find was positive comment, but very few.

I appreciate the wisdom!

I'm struggling to find products which offer good profit margin to sell on ebay and the idea of selling via a website appeals, i have purchased the wholesale directory you recommended and have found it very useful - It's seems to me that ebay offers some of the best prices available for most products, do you think it is advisable to set up a website to sell products?

Thanks for the fast response.
