Today's guest is a few years out of college, and he has a good job in his field of study, but he's getting more and more excited about the business he's building in his spare time on Amazon. He's a provenamazoncourse.com student and a coaching student who manages to sell about $15K per month at a healthy 21% net margin in his spare time. We talk about how he finds products to sell, some tips he's using from his coach to make shopping and prep more efficient, how he finds new inventory to sell, who he will be hiring soon to help him grow, some book recommendations and much more.

Today's guest is a former coaching student who became a coach with us about a year ago. She's one of the most organized and disciplined business builders among our leadership team! Her strategy is to have a set plan for every day of the week and she really sticks to it. She's building an amazing multiple-five-figure business that's far more than replaced the income she had in her previous position. Her Amazon business even helped sustain her family as her husband (a dentist) was furloughed for much of 2020 because of covid. She's of course using the Amazon seller strategies we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course and her business is growing steadily. Today we discuss topics including; her routine, how she finds great inventory, how her husband works with her part-time, how she's grown her small team that works in her house, how she uses eBay and Facebook Marketplace to enhance and diversify her income, how she celebrates small victories very intentionally, her plans to build a brand with her bundles, and much more!

In spite of having a couple years of very challenging family circumstances, today's guest is building a thriving Amazon replens business (as taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course). He's also one of our coaching students who shares very openly that it hasn't been an easy journey! He's seeing $75K per month in sales on average right now with a very bright future ahead. His mom is his primary partner, and he has a small team of part-time workers as well. He shares lessons today about how they find products to sell, what price points and Amazon categories he likes as well as several other practical tips and strategies. I think you'll really enjoy hearing from a young man who is determined, encouraging and thriving!

Today's guest is a young man who came to the US from the Philippines at the age of 19. He worked several jobs just to stay afloat but was determined to get more for his wife and family. After wasting time on Ecommerce courses and concepts that took him nowhere (including a pricey private label Amazon course that completely wasted his time and money), he finally discovered this podcast and the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course. He decided he wanted to use a JimCockrumCoaching.com coach. He quickly ramped up to sales of $20-25K/month at great margins within four months. He now has a realistic goal of going full time in 2022 and hitting $100K per month as he is getting into wholesale with our Proven Wholesale Sourcing strategies. It was truly an honor spending time with Mr. Ed Fernandez today on this episode.

You may not realize that we've been coaching E-commerce since about 2005 and Amazon selling for nearly a decade. With over 7,000 students served and hundreds of recent success testimonials posted in our free Facebook group, there's one member of our team who has talked to as many if not more of our new students than anyone else. If you call our office for a consultation, she's quite likely the one you'll talk to. Today, instead of interviewing one of our successful students, I interview our consultant Debra to get an insider perspective of the stories we hear, the work we do and the type of people that we bring onto our team. It's an inside peek into how our coaching team and program operate.

For the past 17 years we've coached thousands of students in Amazon and ecommerce. This episode contains some valuable lessons that will make you more profitable. These are truths that have been around for 1,000s of years in some cases, but you may have never been exposed to them before! Lessons include, why a "TRIBE" is a better strategy than following an "EXPERT" (Proverbs 15:22), the one question you should ask when someone attempts to create fear by claiming a business model is "dead" (1 Samuel 17), why it is that our most successful students almost always start small and scale over time (Proverbs 13:11), why serving others through meaningful relationships puts more money in your pocket (Proverbs 22:11) and how the principle of specialization will propel you forward faster in business. I discuss the wisdom of having a mentor (1 Corinthians 11:1), a simple way to recognize and eliminate any self-sabotage from your business, and finally a simple starting point for almost certain success on Amazon (What should you sell?!)

Today guest says, "profitable products are just everywhere" and she's right. She's followed the concepts we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course and she's built an incredible business! In her previous job as a high level corporate manager she worked up to 80 hour weeks away from home, but now she enjoys a flexible schedule at home and has more than replaced her corporate income.

In fact, just a few days prior to recording this episode, today's guest hired her husband to join her so they both work from home now and have far more time with their son! It's a great story that's sure to inspire you.

We spend significant time discussing the typical challenges and strategies of the Amazon Replens selling model. Finding inventory isn't the challenge once you are trained because products can be found EVERYWHERE. The real challenges are things like building systems to scale the business and taking regular breaks to avoid burnout while chasing all the opportunity that's out there. We also tackle the topic of Amazon suspensions and managing relationships in business on this packed episode.

Today I share some HARD EVIDENCE that reveals why I'm now convinced more than ever that Wholesale strategies are AS PROFITABLE and FAR LESS RISKY than PL strategies are for sellers! It's a common theme on our show to hear me rant about all of the hyped up promises of the PL (Private Label) selling model on Amazon. Virtually every youtube "expert" is talking about PL, but we take an alternate path ESPECIALLY for new sellers. New evidence has come to my attention that makes our approach very validated. Wholesale is as profitable as PL and it has almost none of the risks with ALL of the same benefits- including building a business you can sell someday! Today I explain.
