The Complete Shopify Dropshipping Course 2026 *REAL RESULTS* (Udemy.com)

STOP dropshipping with Chinese products. Learn dropshipping 2.0 with automation, fast shipping times, & local products

Created by: Kevin Princeton

Last updated November 2025

Our take

Based on the ratings of 5,923 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in November 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.

This is a ten hour walkthrough of what the instructor calls dropshipping 2.0: build a Shopify store, source from suppliers with faster shipping instead of AliExpress, automate fulfilment with an app, then drive traffic with Facebook ads and a free plus shipping offer. The syllabus shows 89 lectures across seven sections, with the biggest chunk on Shopify setup itself. It is pitched at beginners, and that is who it really suits. The description is upfront that this is not a get rich quick scheme, and the requirements ask for roughly a thousand dollars set aside as start-up money.

Kevin Princeton gets consistent praise for explaining things piece by piece with nothing assumed. Reviewers call it practical, straightforward and realistic, and one likes that he keeps the whole thing as cheap as possible at the start. Another appreciated that the examples work through the exact numbers rather than waving at them. The rating sits at 4.7 from about 5,900 reviews, with fewer than two hundred one and two star ratings. The complaints are mild but real: one recent four star review says the course needs some updates, and a five star reviewer warns that experienced sellers will find parts of it basic. There are no quizzes or assignments, so you learn by copying what he does in your own store.

The course dates from 2019 but was refreshed in November 2025, which matters in a field where ad platforms and apps change every year. Against the other Shopify courses we list, this one's angle is getting away from slow overseas suppliers and running a leaner store; an AI focused dropshipping course sits beside it in the same list. It is a sensible pick for a first store on a small budget. Skip it for pure store building or theme work, since the sourcing and ads material is the point.

Best forComplete beginners with about a thousand dollars to invest who want one step-by-step system for a first store.
Skip it ifYou already run a store and want advanced ad strategy, or you only want to learn Shopify theme and store building.

Pros

  • Explains every step with nothing assumed; reviewers repeatedly call it easy to follow, and one says there is no fluff
  • Focuses on faster-shipping suppliers and automation apps rather than the old AliExpress model
  • Refreshed in November 2025, and recent reviews still describe the strategies as current
  • Works through the actual numbers in ad and product examples, which detail-minded students liked

Cons

  • One recent reviewer says the course still needs some updates, unavoidable when ad platforms keep shifting
  • No quizzes, assignments or articles; practice happens in your own store or not at all
  • Experienced sellers will find much of the Shopify setup material basic
A practical and beginner-friendly Shopify dropshipping course with up-to-date strategies and real-world insights. Great for getting started, though some parts may feel basic for experienced sellers.
George Chiu, a student

Genuinely beginner level. The advanced audience claim is a stretch; the real prerequisite is start-up cash, not experience.

Instructor Details

Kevin Princeton

Kevin Princeton was born and raised in San Jose, California. With traditional immigrant parents, he grew up being pushed to work in the healthcare field. At the age of 18, he moved so southern California to attend UC Irvine where he received his bachelors in biological sciences. Graduating at the top of his class, he was later accepted to the University of Southern California where he received his graduate degree.

With a graduate level education and years of his life dedicated to schooling, Kevin thought he was destined to be successful. Unfortunately, he soon realized this would not be true. With over $326,000 in school loans, Kevin has no choice but to work tirelessly at the first job that he could find. He moved back in with his parents and lived paycheck to paycheck. It seems the educational system had failed him.

Wanting a better life for himself, Kevin began educating himself about drop shipping and the world of e-commerce. He came home everyday and studied tirelessly trying to create an online store that would eventually change his life. Kevin spent over 2 years experimenting only to end up failing and shutting down 3 online stores that he had created. He was close to giving up but finally cracked the code on successful marketing for his store!
