#742: New Amazon REPLENS seller with over 1,100 transactions in 90 days!
Today's guest was doing well on eBay, but found it to be a real grind listing and shipping constantly. He decided to learn about Amazon and he got into our provenamazoncourse.com course in August of this year. As of early Nov 2023 he'd already sold 1,100+ transactions at a fantastic 25% net profit with far less time and effort expended. On today's all new show he shares what he's selling, how he finds it and how he does it all as a ONE MAN SHOW. He's done it all without loans or credit cards... just flipping great inventory faster than he can buy it! This guy is going to destroy any excuses you might have about not selling on Amazon using the REPLENS system that we teach in the PAC. Sponsored by Buy or Sell on Amazon If you are well positioned to take advantage of buying an established Amazon account at the start of your Amazon journey, it can make sense to do so! Benefits include potentially far faster payouts, fewer category or storage restrictions, a better seller rating on the platform and an established account health reputation with Amazon - just to name a few.

#740: The top 10 mistakes we see especially new Amazon sellers making right now
Following a PROVEN path to Amazon selling results is important, but of equal importance is AVOIDING the most common pitfalls that many sellers predictably fall into sadly. These mistakes slows their progress and makes the business journey far more difficult than it needs to be. On this episode I discuss the TOP TEN most common pitfalls we are seeing among sellers lately - and how to easily avoid them on your way to building a beautiful business. A few of the mistakes we've been seeing: Sourcing from unapproved places Looking for "Profitable products" instead of test-worthy ASINs Paying too much to learn a bad strategy Jumping from one idea to the next without purpose Attempting to guess your way to the top without help ...and more If you'd like to get on the RIGHT path and avoid these pitfalls, we suggest the provenamazoncourse.com or coaching from our team!

#739: Our weekly highlights and recap of powerful business lessons
Highlights from this episode include discussing the small and light program, silentjim.com/returns (for sellers who don't want to handle all their returned items) and selling seasonal items. The guest also discusses how he took an IP complaint and turned it into an opportunity to develop a relationship with the brand! We covered episode #667 - New PAC student Just a few months in and crushing it - Kevin Alazmo. You can listen to the full episode at https://silentjim.com/podcast Highlight topics: "So how'd you get started?" The guest shares details regarding his first Yankee candle sales by FBM (Fulfilled by merchant). (Jim cautions sellers to avoid sourcing from close outs or liquidations as it's a bit of a risky approach). "From candles, what happened next?" The guest talks about how he is selling primarily topical clearance items but how they have morphed into replens and bundles! Jim also reminds listeners that if they do utilize leads lists, they should be utilized as a research tool and starting point to rabbit trail off of! (rather than just buying the exact products on the list!) Jim's recommendations are to get off the beaten path, build relationships, take advantage of local resources and get your own list of ASINs! And remember that every good Replen ASIN is going to have a shelf life - which may be a few weeks or months but will eventually die off (temporarily or even permanently). The guest quotes Inky Johnson, "Learn from the mistakes of others because you can't make them all yourself!" Jim shares that this is essentially his definition of wisdom! "One more tip I wanted to share…" The guest gives a golden tip of how to route out your store stops using GPS and adding stops to be able to hit every place you need to go! Jim then discusses how to go about growing your business and that really starts with teaching someone else how to source and find Replens (before hiring someone to help prep). The guest highly recommends the coaching program, utilizing the My Silent Team Facebook page and the Proven Amazon Course. Jim and the guest also reiterate the incredible opportunity there is for new sellers to build and grow an incredible online business! Amazon is not too saturated with sellers as sometimes is heard! Jim mentions how incredibly important it is to prioritize a mental and physical break from the daily grind and take a day off per week. He also emphasizes how pace and sustainable habits are more important than the hustle and grind! Jim answers the question, "At what point do you go from a full time job to full time Amazon?"

#737: Zero ecommerce experience didn't stop him from an amazing three month ramp up into Amazon REPLENS
Today's guest has a background in real estate, but his ascent into success using the Amazon REPLENS system has been astonishingly rapid! Starting with just a few hundred dollars a little over 3 months ago, he now is expecting to finish the year with well over $100K in total sales at great margins! He's finding loads of winning inventory! There's NEVER been a better time to be an entrepreneur than RIGHT NOW in my opinion and a big reason for that is the low risk, low learning curve, high odds of success business model of REPLENS as taught as the foundational business model of the provenamazoncourse.com course. Filling the underserved shelf space at Amazon is a big biz for so many in our community - this is just one of 100's of great interviews we've had with students who are succeeding and we'd love to show you how it works!

Jim explains how there are 2 big problems with drop shipping and why it isn't recommended! Jim mentions that the categories home & kitchen, arts & crafts, office products, pet supplies (not food), patio & lawn, sporting & outdoor goods are good places for new sellers to start with!

#730: Lessons learned coaching numerous people to success recently selling on Amazon
"So, what do I need to learn next in order to succeed with my online or Amazon business?" Have you ever asked that? We can help. There are several reasons our E-commerce coaching program has lasted for over two decades while most business coaching companies fail within a year or two. The biggest reason by far is all of the success stories we've generated from our courses (provenamazoncourse.com) and coaching clients - and all those successful students tell others! That's how our community continues to grow without paid advertising! The next biggest factor however is this one I'm pretty sure: We don't have a "cookie cutter" approach to coaching. All our coaches are top performing students who have carved out some time to help others succeed. That's quite unique in the industry. Today's discussion with two of our top coaches illustrates that exact point. There's also a great segment near the end of the episode that I think really gives you a nice peek inside the lives of the high quality people we have on our leadership team here. You'll love the last few minutes of Brian and Robin Joy's discussion. Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: Why is Amazon limiting storage for some FBA sellers on the front end of Q4? What can we do about it?

#729: From living in his mom's garage to having a product in 35,000 retail stores nationally
So often on our podcast, we hear stories of people who have built incredible businesses, but today's episode is perhaps one of the most powerful stories we've ever told from a ProvenAmazonCourse.com community student. The student I interview today has been in our community for well over 10 years at this point and has built one of the most incredible brand building success stories That Amazon has arguably ever seen. Not only has this product been a top 10 item on Amazon in the grocery category, it's also now in 35,000 retail stores. Our team loves helping new sellers get established and take off, but today's episode illustrates what's possible with time, commitment, and the right team backing you along the way.

#728: A live Amazon Q/A with our Facebook members and PAC students
Once per week or so our Amazon seller leadership team and I love to go live on Zoom with whoever can join us and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. We love to capture the best moments from these Monday night sessions for you and turn them into a podcast episode. If you have questions about Keepa, this episode is a must listen for you! Just a few of the highlights captured by the team: Jim lays out exactly what "underserved listings" are and how to go about finding them. Highly recommended podcasts include #554, which talks about ignoring the buy box and #369, which talks all about Keepa! He discusses Keepa drops and how those drops indicate if an item is moving (selling). Sales rank itself is an irrelevant number to replens sellers! Jim thoroughly explains the Proven Branded Bundles module and all the amazing opportunities there are with creating your own bundles! Jim recommends joining the My Silent Team Facebook page and searching for "gated" or "ungating" for lots of information on this topic! Categories open for new sellers include: Pet supplies (not food), sports equipment, arts and crafts, kitchen, household items, school and office supplies. Once sellers sell about 30-40 items, "the gates start falling open!" Show note LINKS: Keepa.com - https://get.keepa.com/ede41 -The service we use to help interpret all of the selling data.

#727: Profit Seeker Pro really speeds up your ability to find OA winners for Amazon
We have created a simple to use software tool that is going to change the way Amazon sellers source great inventory online. It's called ProfitSeekerPro.com and you are the first to hear about it.

He's a success story from the provenamazoncourse.com course, a coach on our team and the lead project manager for the ProfitSeekerPro tool that is about to change the lives of numerous online arbitrage sellers.

#726: Practical advice for testing and selling ASINs at higher prices than other sellers
On today's coaches corner episode of the podcast, we hear from Brian and Robin Joy as they dive into what they are seeing while coaching numerous students from our community. For example, we are hearing from many students who are having success selling products well above the buy box. They reveal why this process works.

Get ready for a heavy dose of very practical strategies for all Amazon sellers!

#723: Stepped away from her IT career to live the flexible Amazon seller lifestyle
Today's guest is a former high school teacher and IT professional who stepped away from her career to live a flexible lifestyle on her own terms thanks to the ProvenAmazonCourse.com training and her multiple six figure sales. Initially, she considered launching a private label brand with a different strategy before finding us, but she moved decided against that because of what she calls some "sketchy" elements in the other group, but as she's grown into the Amazon opportunity, she's now exploring branded bundles as her way to step into building a brand without needing any new products of her own. She's also had significant success with moving items from Canada to the US and vice versa - a cool twist to the typical sourcing strategies that we've ever heard on our show!

#719: The basic skills of Amazon and E-commerce that give you multiple opportunities with a bright future
There's a reason why we have more success stories in our community than any other E-commerce community I've ever seen. It's a combination of several things. The 20+ years experience succeeding with E-commcere, eBay & Amazon, the team of 60+ coaches with beautiful businesses, proven strategies that are carefully vetted and tested for months before we dare share them with our community and perhaps most importantly...

#718: Focusing on business during turmoil? My friend in Israel loves our community and has advice for us.
The interview portion of today's episode was recorded BEFORE the terrorist attack in Israel. The episode is with a good friend of mine - Rabbi Daniel Lapin and his wife Susan who are currently in Israel on a business trip. One of the lessons he taught me about being a business building warrior is that you never allow things that are out of your control to steal your attention from those responsibilities that are under your control. One of those responsibilities (even during times of uncertainty) is your BUSINESS! If you want some practical insight into timeless truths - the very timeless truths that have shaped my business and the numerous Lapin fans in our community for over 15 years, then this is an episode that you'll cherish. This episode is a bit different from the norm, but our guest today LOVES our ProvenAmazonCourse.com family and is also our keynote speaker at our upcoming May 2024 live event in Orlando FL (TheProvenConference.com event) Watch this episode on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/Mi5BW1Kp_Bo Show note LINKS: "The Holistic You" By Rabbi Daniel and Susan Lapin - find it on Amazon (and leave a review!) https://SilentSalesMachine.com - text the word "free" to 507-800-0090 to get a free copy of Jim's latest book in audio about building multiple income streams online!

#717: Our weekly highlights and recap of powerful business lessons
This segment will be a huge encouragement to new sellers who are struggling to get momentum or who are having difficulty staying motivated! Jim talks about "bringing dad's home" as the core mission of his work! We covered episode #618 - This Coaching Student's journey is a journey of mindset and consistency. You can listen to the full episode at https://silentjim.com/podcast Highlights compiled by the podcast team: Jim and the guest also discuss how important mindset and relationships are in this Amazon journey! Jim also praises the guest for the intentionality in his prayers regarding his business and learning! Jim summarizes the coaching program and how it builds relationships with future leaders in our community, which is the biggest asset of the program! Jim shares resources that have been helpful for him in his ecommerce business: Evangelprenurer (Josh Tolley) and The Gathering Storm: Decoding the Secrets of Noah (Rabbi Daniel Lapin). The guest also mentions a book he found helpful: The Household and the War for the Cosmos (C.R. Wiley). The guest talks about his 1st $10,000 month in sales but also shares his struggles in maintaining momentum! Jim says that without even meeting someone, he can tell them their future by simply asking some questions: Who are your friends? What are your habits / your discipline? How do you treat women? How consistent are you? Jim talks with the guest about how his business is currently doing and suggests toys as a great category to start selling in again now that the safety certificates are largely taken care of. There is a great module in PAC on how to streamline the prepping and shipping process, which Jimmy Smith and Pablo Aguilar put together. The guest asks Jim how to know when a seller is ready to access outside funding! Jim says if you've tracked your numbers, know your net margins and are confident in your ability to find winning ASINs. The guest offers a few additional tips: be consistent, track numbers, build relationships and don't be afraid to ask for help ("cheat code"!) Show note LINKS: Stay in touch!

#713: A live Amazon Q/A with our Facebook members and PAC students
Once per week or so our Amazon seller leadership team and I love to go live on Zoom with whoever can join us and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. We love to capture the best moments from these Monday night sessions for you and turn them into a podcast episode. Highlights compiled by the podcast team: Jim opens the Facebook Live session with some general introductory comments before he dives into answering listeners' questions! Jim reminds the listeners that we make our money when we buy our inventory! It's essential to make good buying decisions! REMEMBER: we are looking for test worthy ASINs, not "winning products!" A listener wants to know if it is possible to start your business with no money to invest!? Jim says YES, definitely! Podcast episode #369 will help sellers learn Keepa in order to make good buying decisions! A new seller asks Jim about creating new listings and how to go about hopping on existing listings! Jim clarifies some misconceptions about the Amazon forums! Jim discusses how nothing is "typical" when it comes to starting a business! But he does emphasize that for people who are really willing to work hard, there are many success stories! Proof of concept can come quickly with the replens model! Coach Robin Joy gives some Q4 tips for sellers and also highly recommends the Kick Start Boot Camp for new PAC members! It's a great way to get your Amazon business up and running! Jim reminds new sellers of some very important tips to remember! 1) Do not set up new listings, 2) Do not do the private label method to start, and 3) do not do pay per click (PPC)! Rather, the goal is to look for and identify underserved listings to sell on! John is saying "congrats on the upcoming 10 year anniversary…" Jim talks about the upcoming 10 year anniversary of the My Silent Team Facebook page and the incredible success the group has seen over the years! Jim issues a warning to new sellers that Private Label is NOT the place to start! Our community has seen many sellers find us after losing a lot of money starting with PL! Jim answers the listener's question in providing guidance where to start as a new seller: In the PAC, there is a "Getting started" section that will lead you to Amazon 101, Keepa, and the RA Replenishable course. Coaching is also an option as well - silentjim.com/coaching Jim likes to look for 1) underserved listings with fewer sellers (5-7 sellers, 30-40 drops/month) and 2) anything that is dropping more than 40-50 times per month (regardless of how many sellers). Podcast episode #554 is a great listen about pricing your items and ignoring the buy box! Jim recommends the oasimplified.com course for help with sourcing. Additionally, https://provenbotsourcing.com is a system for scraping websites to help find test worthy ASINs Jim talks about doing RA via wholesale sourcing! Podcast #369 for more information on Keepa - this is essential! More information is coming regarding a wholesale mastermind group! Show note LINKS: Stay in touch!

#712: Good Mistake Money and Bad Mistake Money As an Amazon seller
There are many ways to go wrong when you are starting out your Amazon business building journey. A few examples: >Going all in on a private label brand leads to extreme disappointment about 95% of the time >Buying from sources that aren't legit (closeouts, liquidations, "done for you models", warehouses that do the buying for you etc) These can all lead to sudden death for your account >Going too deep to fast on what you think is great inventory ...the list is long and we've seen it all. There are also some great lessons you can learn along as you grow. Not all "mistake money" needs to be high risk! That's the topic of today's new "Coaches Corner" podcast episode. A big reason we strongly suggest new students start with the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course (only $39/month) is because the training has a proven track record of getting our students real results. There are 100s of great interviews on our podcast with those students if you'd like to hear some of them!

#711: An exclusive interview with an Amazon Exec talking about Amazon seller opportunities
It's a rare occasion when an Amazon executive sits down with an Amazon podcaster to do an interview addressing sellers. To my knowledge, today is quite possibly an industry first! It was truly and honor to be honest. Claire O'donnell is the director of Seller Partner Empowerment and "Communities & Trust" at Amazon. She's has about 700 employees in her organization at Amazon who are all in "seller facing" positions - meaning they are focused on building connections and trust with sellers like you and me - in other words, provenamazoncourse.com students. Her teams manage things like the Account Health Dashboard, the Seller Support Team, the Seller Forums and the Amazon Accelerate event which was attended recently by 2,500 of your fellow sellers from around the world in Seattle. We were there and had the honor of interviewing Claire for a few minutes during her busy schedule as the primary host of the incredible event. Perhaps the biggest win for us at the event (and for you as well) is that we continue to build great relationships with seller facing personalities at Amazon - and that helps us stay better in tune with the true opportunities that Amazon represents for all of us. While we had scheduled 30 minutes with Claire, her schedule was understandably shortened due to the tight schedule of the Amazon Accelerate event, but we did get in some solid questions and this is a great step in the direction of building solid relationships on both sides of the Amazon/seller aisle.

Jim discusses creating multipacks and warns against new sellers doing this. HIs recommendation instead is to do the Amazon 101 course in PAC, the Replenishable model and then the Kick Start Bootcamp. A listener asks Jim about his Bitcoin talk at the conference, which was not recorded due to A/V issues, however, Jim recommends a book called The Bitcoin Standard (by Saifedean Ammous) and has also recorded a Biblical defense of Bitcoin. Silentjim.com/BB to watch a video Robin Joy and Jim talk about Replens and the 4th quarter! If sellers have taken a break from selling toys, now is a great time to revisit them now that many of the safety certificates have been submitted A new seller asks Jim to elaborate on what the following terms mean: RA (retail arbitrage) and Replens (the model). He also asks Jim to discuss FBA vs FBM and which is recommended Jim discusses the process of getting ungated and mentions categories that are good for new sellers to start with. Also, in the MST Facebook group, the hourglass icon at the top right corner of the page can be used to search for "ungated" or "ungating" for many posts discussing this further Jim discusses how a toy can be a replen and the importance of reading Keepa to determine if it is a good ASIN to sell on. Podcast Episode #369 for additional Keepa training Jim reassures the listeners that it does not need to be a big deal when Amazon changes their policies because it happens with frequency. Sellers just need to be ready to pivot, roll with the changes A seller outside the US asks Jim if the Kick Start Bootcamp is helpful for those who sell from outside the US and use a prep center. Jim explains what it means to sell on underserved ASINs and how to identify those with Keepa. Jim prefers to use the phrase "test worthy ASIN!"

#707: Hanging out with Amazon Execs & details of our upcoming virtual conference for Amazon sellers!
Amazon recently hosted 2,500+ sellers at their Seattle headquarters and we were honored to be invited to attend at no charge as "media". I think they wanted us there because of the popularity/influence of our podcast, but regardless - it was a huge honor to attend at no charge! On this episode Nathan Bailey (my 20 year coaching director) and I discussed the event, what we learned and make some observations about what we think the future holds for Amazon sellers. We also discuss a bit of what's in store for those who attend our upcoming VIRTUAL conference designed to help you take full advantage of the opportunities that come with the fourth quarter - the busiest shopping season of the year online!

All students of the provenamazoncourse.com course who've not yet made their first REPLENS sale will benefit greatly from this series of live (and recorded of course) zoom group sessions with a coach - it's only $39! Contact [email protected] for details especially if you are a PAC student. Questions and comments: Jim shares how we are a community working together and not competitors working against each other! The primary reason behind Jim's teaching is because only 16-18% of all retail economic activity is online so there is a lot of opportunity for everyone! He also reminds the listeners how important relationships are in building your business! New sellers should watch this video to learn what the replens model is: https://Silentjim.com/introvideo. Jim explains how often times another seller will provide the safety certificate that is needed for the listing (only 1 seller has to provide it). So an approach can be to just sit on your inventory for a little while and wait for someone else to provide it (if you aren't able to locate it yourself) Jim reminds the listeners that we are looking for underserved ASINs, not winning products! Jim encourages newer sellers to listen to Podcast #554 - Ignore the Amazon "buy box" more if you want to sell more Amazon Replens. Remember the "rule of 3" - if you buy it for $8, then you'll want to sell it for $24. Also, it's highly recommended that new sellers join the KickStart Boot Camp (must be a Proven Amazon Course student) How are results and feedback…" Provenbotsourcing.com is a program that scapes retail websites which helps sellers find potential replens. It's proving to be a very effective way to source but certainly not the only way Jim discusses what IP concerns are and explains how to look at the Keepa graph to determine if this might be a concern - look for the "skateboard ramp of death." Jeff Schick is an attorney that is vetted with Jim's program and is highly recommended for any legal assistance needed Jim discusses Amazon to Amazon flips and how to go about doing that properly - do not use prime discount for ordering The guest mentions Coach Susan Gilbert's "micro goals to macro visions" and talks about how slow and steady is the way to build your business! Jim also discusses pricing and how it can be challenging for new replen sellers Jim explains the difference between scanning barcodes (Easter egg hunt model) vs searching for underserved ASINs on Amazon. Nathan mentions "spokes in the marketing world" and how much opportunity there is for selling online! Nate mentions Jim's candlelight vs cake analogy Jim answers the guest's question regarding how to get the most value out of the coaching program! Jim again recommends newer sellers listen to podcast episode #554 - "Ignore the Amazon buy box more if you want to sell more Amazon replens!" The head of the coaching team, Nathan Bailey, also adds to the discussion on the coaching program! Jim summarizes by saying, "Stay encouraged with the team (other sellers), go faster with a coach!" Jim answers the guest's question about how to best balance time! Nathan suggests using a business journal to help manage time in order to be successful and mentions the 4 D's in business - 1) Do It, 2) Delegate it, 3) Drop it, 4) Delay it
#699: Branded Bundles on Amazon are on FIRE!
On today's all new episode we dive into the topic of selling BRANDED BUNDLES on Amazon. We are super excited to launch ProvenBrandedBundles.com! We've been seeing some exciting success stories and momentum on our team lately with this concept! One of our students discussed today has all 40 of his branded bundle listings on Amazon on FIRE (all of them are doing well!) There's a lot to love about doing bundles the right way on Amazon. You have easily sourced inventory on a unique ASIN (listing) that's impossible for others to sell against because one or more of the items in the bundle is something that ONLY you can source. When set up properly, you can see amazing results. There are pitfalls to avoid, and you definitely DO NOT want to blindly guess your way through setting these up, but WOW - this is a powerful strategy for those ready to do the work!

#698: Get in the flow on Amazon. Earn by doing it!
Today's all new podcast episode will be great for our newer Amazon selling students who don't quite understand the difference between looking for "profitable products" and "filling underserved shelf space at Amazon". Get in the flow...that's the big lesson today! Are you over complicating the process of building a business on Amazon? Part of the beauty of being an Amazon seller is that you benefit from all the work that Amazon does in attracting millions of buyers to their site, and countless brands (including millions of brands that YOU can sell) are attracting buyers to YOUR LISTINGS! In other words, success for especially our newest provenamazoncourse.com students is NOT a matter of "finding profitable products", it's a matter getting in the game on fast moving products, underserved listings and test-worthy ASINs that offer a high chance of moving at a profitable price for you.

#697: A live Amazon Q/A with our Facebook members and PAC students
Once per week or so I love to go live on Zoom in the Facebook group with whoever can join me and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. Recently, we recorded one of these sessions for you. Added segment - Alex from Sellerboard discusses the features and advantages of this tool. Special pricing can be found at: silentjim.com/numbers Questions and comments: Jim discusses the frustration that some new sellers experience with being gated in so many categories / brands. New sellers can start selling in: arts & crafts, sporting goods, pets (not pet food), household goods - kitchen / bath, office supplies Jim offers guidance on how to go about testing replens Jim reminds new sellers, if you want to learn more about Keepa, go listen to podcast episode #369. Jim also reminds the listeners that "Once a coaching student, always a coaching student!" Among Replen sellers, there are about 35-40 different tools that sellers can possibly use! Selleramp has a great reputation and is similar to RevSeller. Just remember - the most important data point when making replens decisions is - is this a test worthy ASIN? - which is what Keepa will tell you! Keepa is the most important tool to use! There are affiliate links available for Revseller and Selleramp Jim offers the following suggestions for building relationships: 1) Relationships differentiate the people who make it vs those who don't! 2) My Silent Team FB group allows you to enter your location and see other sellers who live nearby! 3) "There is no such thing as a neutral interaction!" 4) Kickstart boot camp helps new sellers get a jump start to their business! 5) Brian and Robin Joy Olson are hosting The 100 ASIN course in Salt Lake City in mid September.

#695: Let's compare Amazon selling to other popular business models
How does the Amazon selling model that we call "REPLENS" compare to the other businesses "opportunities" that are available to all of us? If you're like me, you've tried and failed at many models. I now consider any biz opportunity based on these factors: Learning required Odds of sustained success Overall costs and risk Quality of the community of people working that biz model etc. How does Amazon selling stack up? We love and teach the Amazon models we teach in the provenamazoncourse.com course because those models scores so well for ALL of the above factors! You'll benefit greatly from understanding our "Low Low High" litmus test... look for low risk, low learning curve and high odds of success businesses like we do! That's the topic we tackle today with the coaching leaders from our team - Brian and Robin Joy Olson.

#694: Starting with $300 and sold his Amazon wholesale business for a beautiful payout Part 1 of 2
I hope you realize how incredibly valuable your Amazon selling skills are in the real world! There are some amazing doors of opportunity that open up to you once you understand the basics of selling on Amazon. Today's podcast interview with another provenamazoncourse.com success story is proof of just that. Paul started out where so many of our successful students start - skeptical and willing to only risk a few hundred dollars. Over time though as his story unfolded and he began to succeed as a coaching student, there were new challenges to face on his way to ultimately building a beautiful wholesale business on Amazon and selling his company eventually for a great payout. He's also being paid quite well now helping a big brand navigate their Amazon strategy. He's transparent in his struggles both with personal issues including alcohol as well as the business ups and downs and he openly shares that his business relationships were a source of strength as he fought his hardest battles. He's truly thriving now and the future is bright! Today's episode is a story of triumph that will encourage Amazon sellers of all success levels - even those who are brand new and is part one of a two part story.

He also reminds listeners that there is a FREE Facebook group called: Amazon FBA and Online Sellers : MySilentTeam, which has a feature that allows sellers to find other sellers who live close to them for networking and mastermind formation purposes! Jim mentions several things that are helpful for new sellers: the Kick Start boot camp, Podcast 369 for lots of Keepa information, https://OAsimplified.com for learning online arbitrage (also part of the PAC) and the new bot strategy Jim and the guest talk through the different tools she is currently using with her business. Episode Podcast 554 discusses an important pricing strategy that ignores the buy box. Jim also talks about how to know when you are ready for a repricer and reminds the listeners how much opportunity there is with selling on underserved ASINs! The guest asks Jim how to go about scaling her business? Jim reminds sellers that "slow and steady wins the race" as you search to find profitable ASINs. This will lead to building a business (an asset) that could be sold at some point if needed. Jim also explains the Proven brand building course, which is part of The Proven Amazon Course. The guest shares some "rapid fire tips" for the listeners - get an accountability partner and also play around with different ways to search for ASINs. Jim reminds new sellers about the Kick Start Boot camp which is a great opportunity for new sellers to work with coaches to get their business up and running!
