In this episode Jim compares the various business models that are taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com (the PAC) course from the vantage point of which model is the most likely to see rapid profits, which model is the most stable long term, which model is most immune to competition and other ranking factors. Of course all of the models are low risk and low cost as well as highly scalable and flexible, BUT...not all of them have identical stability and profit potential! Let's talk about it!  This episode is designed to help you decide which of the various strategies taught in the "PAC" is the best FIRST or NEXT model for you to pursue!

Today we meet an instructor at Missouri State University, Dana Fredrick who is excitedly introducing concepts from the Proven Amazon Course into the classroom at Missouri State University.  As a fellow business building warrior I thought you'd be interested to hear the perspective of someone from a "traditional" educational institution on how they view Ecommerce opportunities and specifically how they are applying the PAC to their entrepreneurship educational program. We are in talks with a good handful of universities right now and will have more updates for you soon on this rapidly developing story. We were honored when Dana sought us out to talk about the MSU vision for producing successful entrepreneurs using our content.  Increasingly,  PAC is establishing itself as the cutting edge content of choice in the Amazon selling space!

Quite possibly the lowest hanging fruit business model that we teach is our RA (aka Retail Arbitrage) strategy of sourcing profitable products either ONLINE or through walk-in retail stores. You've heard from numerous members of our community in past episodes that have talked about their wild success in this arena, and now as we approach "Q4" (the fourth quarter of the year) we are more excited than ever about the sourcing forecast for sellers!  This episode will equip you with strategies and tools to ensure a wildly profitable "Q4".
