Our guest for today's episode started on Amazon many years ago, but he was on a TREADMILL model of scanning bar codes, going store to store, always selling different items and getting stuck with an ever growing "pile" of unsellable inventory.

 

He got (understandably) frustrated and his margins were dropping.

 

He did this model for TEN FULL YEARS and then he took a full two years off - he quit Amazon feeling defeated... and then he found our community just a few months ago.

 

He found the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course - he discovered the REPLENS model (the model behind the 100s of sellers success stories you've heard on this show)...

 

... and now, just three months in, you won't believe what he's built and the great margins he's getting. His business has come back to life, and he's energized by the results and margins of this new model!

Today I interview a married couple who has used our coaching and the relationships they've built in our community to build an incredible business based on the concepts taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course.

 

He left his career in banking behind and she left her teaching career behind as well - and they've been ALL IN for over two years - and it's going great!

 

They are doing Amazon REPLENS, Brande Bundles and a bit of wholesale too...and they are starting to experiment with Walmart as well. It's a family business that they both work full-time along with help from their two kids.

 

This episode has plenty of practical tips and loads of encouragement for you regardless of where you are in your ecommerce business journey!

 

As discussed on today's episode, come meet this family and hundreds of others at TheProvenConference.com event in Orlando May 23-25th!

A panel of leaders from our team got together to tackle these questions recently and we recorded the conversation. ALL Amazon resellers, bundle sellers and anyone who is considering selling on Amazon will benefit from hearing this discussion.

 

Overview:

A couple times per year for the past 20+ years we've seen both minor and major updates and changes come into play for sellers on Amazon, eBay etc.

 

Amazon has changed policy and fee structures recently so we dive into the details.

 

Right now there's a lot of discussion about the latest fee and shipping changes on Amazon for example. How concerned are serious sellers? How big of an impact will these changes have?

 

Topics covered among others:

Has the opportunity on Amazon changed? Is it harder now? If so, how much?

Are changes necessary in light of these changes?

How are these changes BENEFITING especially newer sellers?

What's the bottom line impact we are predicting as far as total impact sellers will see?

What solutions have already floated to address these changes?

Today's all new episode tackles common questions and challenges faced by newcomers to selling on Amazon, specifically around restrictions and approved categories. It begins by addressing the concerns of many new sellers who find themselves confused by the limitations placed on what they can sell, noting that initial approval typically includes categories like Home and Kitchen, Arts and Crafts, Office Products, and Pet Supplies (excluding pet food).

 

Even with all the initial restrictions that Amazon has though, there are a significant number of available ASINs (products) in these approved categories that total over 50,000 products—that meet specific criteria such as having some past or current FBA offers, being non-hazmat, having no Amazon sales in the past 30 days and experiencing at least 30 or so sales rank drops in the past month.

 

Further, the episode provides strategic advice on how to expand your list of potential ASINs by selecting trustworthy sources.

 

Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If I get some 'free stuff' from a supplier or elsewhere, can I sell it safely on Amazon?"

Today's podcast guest lives in Laos and runs a successful Amazon selling business in the US on Amazon.com. He's using concepts from the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course to provide all the living expenses he needs while he's living permanently in the country that God called him to  serve and love on the people of a poor nation.

 

Laos is a poor nation where the US dollar goes very far, so our guest for today's show is using the proceeds to bless those near him and even training them on how to get into ecommerce themselves as you'll hear.

 

It's another great example of what's possible when you learn the basics of Amazon the way we teach it - the flexibility of location is powerful and you won't believe what he's been able to achieve so fast in his young journey of only a few months as a REPLENS student of our training!

Apr 13, 2024

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.

 

 

  • Coach intro to Kickstart Bootcamp - Robin Joy gives an overview 

 

  • Podcast best hits -- Jim covers which episodes are most helpful and popular with our listeners of the Silent Sales Machine Radio podcast https://silentjim.com/podcast

 

  • They touch on cross the border selling and the advantages of doing so

 

  • Jim clarifies what a replen is and how knowing this is intregal to your success

 

  • Lots of discussion on why Keepa is so important to your Amazon business

 

Question

My question is, I'm in Canada and I did start my journey as a private label seller and that didn't go too well and then I joined you I think a year ago, should I sell here or in the US?

You have a very unique advantage living in Canada. We've got some cross border training coming from Debbie on our team here and we're going to actually be rolling it out at the conference in May. https://theprovenconference.com

 

Question

My question is how do I do replens? I've always done replens and home goods products which sell very well but I have to get my income up more.

Replens definition

Let's talk about what a replen is real quick.

The difference between where you are now and having a business where you pay someone to put tape on boxes which is $12 $15 an hour work, you need to be spending time perfecting your Keepa skills. 

You really got to dive into replens, find test worthy asins and build your book of ASINs

When you start off in the Proven Amazon Course you're going to start off with Amazon 101, then both Replens courses we offer in the PAC. You will see exactly where to start on the tab "get started" and that's going to keep you busy the next three or four months.

 

Question 

What podcast could help me understand keepa charts?

If you want a shortcut get the course get the proven Amazon course go through Kickstart. https://silentjim.com/kickstart/

Podcast episodes which are helpful and fan favorites. Episodes 369 is the go to beginner's understanding of how we use Keepa, then episodes 612, 554, 555, 754 at https://silentjim.com/podcast

For those of you who around earlier when I was mentioning it podcast episode 754 is our interview with Khang Dang. He's brilliant and created a software program to help manage his multimillion dollar Amazon business. We're very proud of how low we're going to make the price on this thing. https://silentjim.com/thesystem

 

Question

Someone asked if there's any repricing training inside the Proven Amazon Course. Yes, there is. Bqool is one of our great sponsors.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but after helping hundreds of students succeed on Amazon last year we are positive that "There is No Magic Formula".

 

We can teach you the SYSTEM, but there are lessons to learn and opportunity comes with a steady ongoing learning curve.

 

This new podcast episode discusses the opportunities and complexities of finding profitable Amazon products (aka Amazon Standard Identification Numbers or ASINs).

 

We address the common misconception that there's a simple magic formula for success in selecting "winning profitable" ASINs. There just isn't!

 

The discussion emphasizes the importance of matching any ASIN you find with a reputable source, avoiding third-party sellers, ensuring brand accuracy, and verifying listing details. It further highlights that testing is crucial for gaining experience, understanding inventory placement, improving account health, receiving seller feedback, and uncovering profit opportunities.

 

Once you have these habits, you will be an ASIN hunting NINJA, but until then, you're taking unnecessary risks and cutting your success short!

 

The episode advises testing safely by choosing fast-moving items, protecting capital, and being open to testing rather than finding reasons not to. It concludes that there's no universal formula for testing or replenishing ASINs, stressing that experience and inventory control, even with a small number of units, are key to making informed decisions.

 

The importance of diligence and careful evaluation is underscored in the conclusion.

 

Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of https://JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Can the actions I take with my amazon SHOPPING (buyer) account effect my Amazon SELLER account?"

Questions from the group participants:

Question -  What is the difference between Jungle Scout and Keepa? 

One of the best tools we recommend is Keepa which allows a quick decision based on good data that we

Listen to episode #369 at https://silentjim.com/podcast to hear the best information we teach about Keepa

Question - I use Bqool repricer and need help with a setting, can you help?

Bqool - https://silentjim.com/repricer

Facebook group - great question for our FB group

https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam

 

Question - Can you still do ra when you change to a wholesale account?

Podcast #807 is an example of building an Amazon Business where our student uses several different business models in one selling account.

PROVEN Branded Bundles -we're going to be adding this course to our PAC this month!

Question - Does the old buying inventory 3x rule still work selling on Amazon?

The answer is it depends!

Use a great tool to be well informed

https://provenamazoncourse.com/revseller - gives you a quick estimate of the fees

 

Question-If I leave an as I'm run out of an as out of a stock and I'm not sure if I'm going to continue with that ASIN or not? Do I have to close it out or can I leave it as it is?

Not an issue but there are considerations here.

 

Question -If Amazon is on the listing should I avoid that ASIN?

More thoughts on this strategy a bit later in the show.

 

Question - When I get good inventory listed I get a letter from the supplier saying that I am not authorized to sell, how do I deal with this?

Jeff Schick is a terrific resource here https://jeffschick.com

Asking on the MST Facebook group with hidden details is helpful in discerning if the letters are legit

The Keepa chart's sharp decline of sellers is a hint that the brand may be best to stay away from - "grumpy brands"

 

Question: Are we allowed Amazon to Amazon Flips?

Yep! Don't use your Prime account.

 

Question: Should I set my price higher than the Buy Box price for 3-4 weeks?

Podcast #554 - Above the Buy Box pricing

 

Question - Why it doesn’t always matter that Amazon is selling on the ASIN?

Sometimes Amazon being on the listing is better for boosted ranks of your product.

 

Buy Box crucial information

Question: Do you try to win the buy box or match the buy box?

https://silent Jim.combb70 - our Facebook chat of all Jim's examples of selling at a higher price

Podcast 554, 555, 612 - these episodes highlight Above the Buy Box pricing

Be sure to be well informed in the Replens training in our Proven Amazon Course before diving too deeply in this strategy

Suppressed Buy Box

Jim explains what that means. How it can be a plus on your product listings.

For over 20 years, the only income my family and I have had is from multiple online ventures. I've learned many valuable lessons about growing online streams of revenue over this time and on today's episode I break down the most important elements of the journey.

 

I explain why we start the vast majority of our new students with Amazon selling. I also discuss the three categories of opportunity that we see online (all business ideas online fit into one of these three).

 

If you can BUILD SYSTEMS (automate processes) and PURSUE RELATIONSHIPS (surround yourself with others on a similar journey) you can also build great income streams online.
