Shop Genius Limitation (Cons)

Let’s take a look at some of the limitation of this platform.

  • Facebook Ads Only

Ads template are only limited to the Facebook platform. This means all the ads you’ll be given access to are all run on Facebook.

  • No Free Plan

This platform has no free plan or free membership. However, it also comes with a very limited trial of 24hr for the starter plan.  While the full plan comes with 3 days’ free trial.

Let’s take a look at the other tool which is Ecomhunt.

What is EcomHunt

ecomhunt review

Ecomhunt on the hand is a curation of winning products every day. What this means is that they research winning products on a daily basis and upload it on their platforms for users to gain access.

What’s interesting about this are the data alongside the products. They also provide Facebook ads cover, image and videos at which you can use to run your Facebook ads successfully.

Equally interesting is Facebook insight and targeting they provide for your Facebook ads campaign. This will allow you to target the right audience that is likely to take action on your product.

Ease of Use

The tool is quite easy to use just like Shop Genius. Users enjoy access to products on a daily basis and product data from their dashboard. However, free members are mostly limited.

From the dashboard, you’ll see various products available and been released on a daily basis. Once you see a product you’ll like to add to your store.

Simply click on “show me the money” and it will bring out every related data pertaining to the product.  From Facebook targeting to advert videos, links to suppliers and stores already selling the products etc.

Pricing/Membership Plan

EcomHunt basically has two plans the Free membership plan and the Pro plan. If you’re staying with the free membership plan, you will have access to 2 daily products with very limited data.

You won’t have access to the Facebook targeting, links to store already selling the products or suppliers. To get all product data, free members will have to upgrade to the Pro plan.

The Pro plan which of course is the second plan gives you access to everything Ecomhunt has to offer. From Facebook targeting to reviews, links, analytics etc.

The Pro Plan costs $29/month but you can get it for now at a discounted price of $20/month.

Webinars & Tutorials

This is one of the cool features of EcomHunt and why it’s a bit different from Shop genius. They took time in putting their users through the whole processing by providing webinars and tutorials for them.

Since more and more people are trying to make more money and most of them have little or no knowledge about dropshipping. Having access to the EcomHunt tutorials and webinars will prove to be very helpful.

However, the downside to this is that most of the webinar and tutorial are only available for the pro members. Being a free member means your access to this will be limited.

But the value acquired is actually more, compared to the paid price. So it’s a win-win situation because it’s totally worth it.

AdHunter Chrome Extention

This chrome extension is available for both free member and pro members. What it does is that it allows you to find active competitive ads on Facebook while you can then use the template to re-run your Facebook ads.

What the chrome extension does is similar to Shop genius but shop genius is more sophisticated than the adhunter chrome extension.

Shop genius is solely built for hunting ads on Facebook while Adhunter is just one of the features of Ecomhunt.

The ad hunter chrome extension shows you traffic amount, the targeted location of the ad and how long it has been running.

The chrome extension is absolutely free, but to use it, you need to be an active user of EcomHunt either pro or free member.

Product Profits & Analytics

This feature will let you know how much you’ll be making on a product. It will show the profit margin how much you’ll be getting the product from AliExpress and the average price the product is being sold.

product profits, analytics and engagement indicator

With the profit stats provided by EcomHunt, you will be able to plan your business, how much you should invest in Facebook ads and your potential return.

The product analytic on the other hand will let you know how well the product is doing generally. This in terms of social media and user experience.

In terms of social media, you’ll be provided with the total numbers of shares, likes, comment the product is having.

Finally, as per user experience, you’ll be provided with reviews, ratings, votes, and total numbers of orders the product is having over time.

Literary all the work is done. What users’ needs to do is pick the product of their choice and promote it.

Setbacks to EcomHunt

Let’s take a look at some of their set back

Free Membership: the free membership plan provides low values. For a user to really exploit the platform they need to upgrade to the Pro plan.

Conclusively

The tools are both wonderful tools. If you’re solely interested in running Facebook ads, I’ll suggest you check the Shop genius. And equally, if what you want is a low budget platform with more value, then you might want to check out Ecomhunt.

I feel Ecomhunt is more elaborate and more comprehensive while Shop genius has a strong point on Facebook ads template only.

Going with the pricing plan, Ecomhunt is quite affordable as you can get with it at the discount price of Just $20/month. And this includes access to everything on the platform.
