Hey STMers,
Im am about to take the plunge into dropshipping / performance marketing style.
I have created a list of tools to help me along the way, plus I will be doing an in-depth follow-along in anticipation of having members steer me in the right direction.
For the first attempt at this method of drop shipping, I will be targeting English speaking countries outside of the USA. Most probably Australia and NZ, any suggestions for additional GEO's would be greatly appreciated.
On my second attempt, once I have gained the basic skills and created some systems and process I will start to target Non English GEO's, and possibly employ a VA of the nationality and languages to handle customer relations, again any suggestions for this situation would be welcomed but I will reach out for this once I get to this stage in the game.
ECOMM / Dropshipping Blue Print (resources)
1) Caurmens complete ecomm cookbooks
2) STM follow-alongs ( a few favorites )
3) Free intro classes Istack training for FB ads
4) Facebook Blue Print (this looks kinda crap, any opinions on what to study and what to avoid)
5) Oberlo - Mini-Course on Aliexpress Drop Shipping
Can anyone suggest blogs that are covering this topic and additional (affordable) training
also with the style of drop shipping should I avoid the courses such as
Smart Marketer
and
Drop Shipping LIfe Style
As i don't want to get my head stuck in too many rabbit holes and learn the wrong shit, which is soo easily done in the world of internet marketing.
Thanks in advance and I will be sure to include these resources in the intro page of the follow along for newer STM peeps to refer to as a guide.

Good list!
Aside from that you'll mostly learn by doing. You might want to consider the iStack Facebook training that's going on right now if you can afford it. It's also always a good idea to read through the posts of experts on STM in what you're about to do (Pekadis, for example), and also to read and make notes on all the Follow-Alongs you can find of people doing similar things, so you can learn from their mistakes.
Looking forward to your first update!
Looks like a good start. I'm also starting from the ground up in the coming months and look forward to sharing some info/seeing the follow along (I also plan to make one soon).
Just so I maybe add a tiny bit of value, part 5 is out if you didn't notice:
