Well, that’s exactly what we’ve built at eCommerceFuel. We’re the world’s only private, highly vetted community dedicated exclusively to seven-figure plus store owners. Here’s a few reasons why you should consider joining us.
Grow by Joining an Unparalleled Group of Peers
Our average member owns a business doing $2.6 million in revenue and has been in the eCommerce world for more than 7.5 years.
With over 1,000 members, there’s nowhere else you can tap into such a concentrated group of eCommerce experts with skin in the game.
Perhaps most impressive is that the average eCommerceFuel member is growing revenues 36% per year. That’s nearly 50% faster than the average eCommerce store today. (1)
When you join eCommerceFuel, you tap into a highly experienced pool of store owners who are willing to share what’s working in their business today to help you grow your business faster.
“eCommerceFuel is the highest level of Community we have in the business……you won’t find a better group.”Ezra Firestone | BoomByCindyJoseph.com | 8-Figure Store Owner
Overcome Problems & Learn in Our Vibrant Forums
The power of our private forum is getting real-time feedback on your unique questions. It’s hard to top tailored, customized advice from credible people when you need help.
But a close second is our enormous archive of historical discussions you can tap into when you have a problem.
You get immediate access to more than 10,000 historical discussions covering everything from taxes to SEO to email marketing to employee management. Our archives contain discussions on just about every topic you can imagine related to running and growing your store.
If you’re struggling with an issue, chances are good someone’s already posted about (and received lots of advice) on the same topic.

“After migrating to Shopify we saw a significant drop in traffic. I posted the problem on the forums and within minutes we had dozens of knowledgeable suggestions which helped us fix the problem. eCommerceFuel saved us tens of thousands in potentially lost sales.”Brandon Eley | 2BigFeet.com | 7-Figure Store Owner
Quickly Plug Into a Global Network of Peers

When you’re an eCommeceFuel member you’re immediately plugged into a global network of successful store owners across the world.
Not only can you reach out to members when traveling, but you’ll instantly have friends and people to connect with at countless industry events. Last year, there were eCommerceFuel meetups at:
- IRCE
- Amazon FBA Boost
- The Canton Fair
- Goldman Sacks 10K Small Business Alumni Summit
- Shopify Unite
- Prosper Conference
…just to name a few. And that’s not to mention the more than 40 local-area meetups in cities from L.A. to Dublin to New York that happen regularly!
Our keystone event each year is eCommerceFuel Live, an intimate conference we hold exclusively for members. It’s 2-3 days of high-impact talks and powerful networking with some of the best eCommerce entrepreneurs you’ll ever meet. It’s so popular that we sold out all 150 seats last year within 5 hours of tickets going on sale. And you’re invited as a member.
Bottom line? Joining eCommerceFuel gives you immediate access to a network of successful and fun peers and plenty of chances to connect with them in person.
“I’m a brand new ECF member on my own at the Canton Fair, and yet somehow I feel like I’m on a trip with friends. I’ve met the most wonderful eCommerceFuel members connecting over coffee and dinner. Such a rare occurrence to find members who can help AND that I want to hang out with!”Benjamin Byrne | TheKindnessElves.com
“I just signed up for the Toronto meetup and wanted to say how grateful I am being part of this community. Anytime I travel to another city I try to connect with members in that city and it’s been awesome.”Boris Vaisman | Soxy.com

Non-Biased Software and Contractor Reviews
There’s lots of reviews online but they’re often biased as evidenced by affiliate links and/or kickbacks.
This is particularly disheartening if you’re considering spending $25,000 to migrate to a new shopping cart or considering signing a contract with a yet-to-be-proven agency.
How do you know who you can trust?
That’s why we built our own Software and Contractor Review Directory. It’s a database of 5,000+ reviews submitted by our members about their experience with the tools, software and contractors they use to run their online stores.
No affiliate links or kickbacks. Just unbiased, honest reviews from store owners. And it’s available exclusively to our members.
To Be a Member We Require That:
The magic of eCommerceFuel all comes down to having the right store owners inside. We heavily vet all applicants and you must be one of the following to be eligible for membership:
You Own a 7-Figure eCommerce Business
We will on occasion accept mid-to-high six figure store owners with exceptionally strong applications (amazing brand, deep experience, etc) but do give strong preference for 7-figure owners.
You Have Deep Operational Experience
If you’ve worked in the eCommerce world for years – and are willing to share what you’ve learned – you’d likely be a great fit. Examples would include Heads of Digital Marketing, Director of eCommerce, etc.
Sorry, No Vendors or Beginners
To keep the discussions/networking highly relevant to 7-figure store owners we don’t allow vendors, SaaS providers, agencies or store owners doing less than $250K per year.
We want to create a pitch-free environment, one where store owners can openly discuss popular software and contractors without worrying about a team member dropping in on the discussion.
On rare occasions, we’ll accept subject area contractors who are deeply committed to sharing their expertise and not soliciting forum members. A referral from a trusted, current members is required.
The Cost
eCommerceFuel membership is $49 per month. If accepted, your first month is free to make sure it’s a good fit. After that dues are $149 charged quarterly.

- Our Vibrant Discussion Forum: Get real-time personalized help + access to 10,000 archived discussions.
- Our Proprietary Review Directory: 5,000+ member-submitted reviews can help prevent expensive mistakes.
