Three coaching calls in one week. Three different sellers. Same problem - they were all passing on ASINs because of what Keepa wasn't showing them. In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy unpack the blind spots hiding in plain sight on every Keepa chart: the "dead" listing that's actually just chronically out of stock, the buy box price that changes depending on which region you're standing in, and the sales that happen at prices Keepa never even logs. The old signals, rank drops, offer counts, the national buy box, trained an entire generation of resellers to read the chart one way. Amazon changed the building. Keepa is still one window.
This episode is about learning to walk around to the other side.

Today's guest: Asad Imran
New Amazon resellers often report that they struggle to find brands and products that they are eligible (ungated) to sell when they first get started as a new reseller on Amazon. There are incredible tools emerging right now that completely resolve that challenge - today I talk to the creator of a very effective, simple tool called MultiSellerPro - (visit SilentJim.com/msp for a discount).
MSP crawls the accounts of other Amazon sellers looking for qualified, ungated products and builds a constantly monitored catalog that over time alerts you as any gated brands/products become ungated - and that's just one of numerous features!

Today we meet a father of two who has a background in ministry who is making his family's financial dreams come true via Amazon reselling. His healthy six figure per month business is primarily a "one man show" run out of his basement operating about 18% margins. He's never been more confident than he is now about the future prospects of the Amazon reselling model.
We discuss what tools he uses, the challenges he's faced, how he sources products and his thoughts about the future of Amazon selling.

Today's Guest Zach Silverman
Some of the smartest people Robin Joy coaches still can't pull the trigger. They're stuck in saver mode when the business needs them in builder mode.
Brian and Robin Joy unpack the mindset shift that separates the sellers who get going from the ones who keep studying. Why customers happily pay more on Amazon. Why Brian wouldn't drive to Walmart to save money but goes all day to make money. And the math behind the catalog: out of 1.4 billion ASINs, the sweet spot is the 2.4 million selling 50 to 199 units a month. That's the corner big corporations can't be bothered with. That's where we live.
The cure for analysis paralysis isn't more analysis. It's a shipment.
Kickstart program: silentjim.com/kickstart
Let's go test more ASINs.

A coaching client messaged us this week ready to abandon his method. A few bad matches, a couple wrong orders, and a new surcharge from Amazon and suddenly the grass looks greener everywhere else. We've seen this movie before.
In this episode, we do the math on Amazon's new 3.5% FBA surcharge, show you the free lever most sellers ignore, and talk about why the people who win this game aren't the ones who found the perfect strategy, they're the ones who stopped restarting the clock.

Fear doesn't show up in a cape. He shows up in a cardigan, sits down at your kitchen table with a spreadsheet, and asks if you've run the downside scenario.
In this Coach's Corner, Brian and Robin Joy tell the story of the 11 years they spent "being fine" after a real estate crash, the hemorrhagic stroke that hit Robin weeks after they launched their Amazon business, and the moment they realized that if that didn't stop them, nothing would.
Then they turn it into something you can use. Why almost every seller hits a cash crunch between week seven and week twelve. Why "as much as I can" is not a plan. And the one hire that finally made their business click.
You didn't fail. You just flinched. Now get back up.

Most sellers sit down to source and stare at a blank page every single time.
In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy explain why your product database isn't just a spreadsheet, it's a living asset that compounds over time. Learn why the real game isn't finding products to sell, it's building (and feeding) the engine that finds them for you. Plus: the four layers of a healthy starter, why "I'm going to source" is like "I'm going to the gym" without a plan, and how to shift from hunting to harvesting.

There's huge demand for PREP CENTERS among Amazon sellers. A prep center is where inventory is "prepped" for Amazon FBA warehouse storage. The sizes of prep centers range from a spare garage bay with a couple of Amazon seller clients all the way up to a massive warehouse with numerous clients. Today we are launching a course that will appeal to anyone who:
Wants to start a prep center in their extra space and get paid to manage inventory for others
Wants to be in a mastermind community of other prep center owners large and small
Wants to learn how to more efficiently prep their own inventory
If you might be in one of those categories, today's show is a MUST LISTEN!
The new course launches April 28th, but it's being recorded and you can join the community and get the course anytime here: SilentJim.com/prepcentertraining

Today's guest Matt Hassler
"I run out of inventory money WAY before I run out of great products I can sell" - a quote from our guest today.
On this episode we talk to another ProvenAmazonCourse.com student who is VERY part time, but it's not just the profits from his Amazon business that he's enjoying - he also loves all the credit card points he's collecting! As a matter of fact, the opportunity to maximize the use of points was the driving reason he even got into Amazon selling! His goal was to merely break even and enjoy all the points, but he's raking in nice profits as well!
With a very part-time effort he's found 114,000 viable products to load into 3PMercury and he says he has "pages and pages" of great products he can buy at any given time.
This is yet another coaching student success story as well! If you'd like to talk to us about our coaching program, contact us any time at SilentJim.com/bookacall

Regardless of if you live inside or outside of the U.S., it's irrelevant when it comes to building a great Amazon reselling business on Amazon(.com), and today's guest is just another example that proves it! Today we interview a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student who lives in Istanbul and is building a great business selling on Amazon.com in the U.S. without seeing or touching her products! She's just following the same system we teach to all our students living inside and outside the U.S.
With the use of the two step strategy we've developed, we are seeing more exciting success stories than ever before! We are teaching sellers to find more and more of the MILLIONS of understocked and UNSTOCKED popular items that aren't as readily available as they should be in most or all of the hundreds of Amazon U.S. warehouses.
Also note - our TheProvenConference.com event is coming up in August 2026 - keep an eye on that website for details and plan to join us!

If you've ever run out of your best-selling products faster than you can restock them, wondered what ROI you should actually be targeting, or watched your buy box disappear and immediately reached for the repricer - this episode is for you.
Brian and Robin unpack one of the most misunderstood realities in Amazon selling: three questions that look completely different on the surface are actually the same question wearing different masks. And the answer to all three is almost always the same word. Price.
In this episode you'll learn:
Why running out of stock is a pricing problem, not a sourcing problem
What ROI floor you should be targeting, and why it connects directly to your velocity
What actually causes a buy box to disappear (hint: it's not your price)
Why panic pricing hands your profit directly to the seller who held their number
How to read a suppressed buy box for what it actually is - a delivery signal, not a pricing signal
Brian drops the line that ties it all together: "Price is the lever. It controls your velocity, your ROI, your exposure to panic, and whether you hold or fold when the buy box disappears."
And they close with a Warren Buffett quote that hits differently when you're watching your repricer make decisions it doesn't have the information to make.
This one is worth a second listen.
Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "What is the inform act and how scary is it? (HINT: It's not scary)" Use coupon code "MISTAKE" to get your first month of services for only $1 with Jeff and his team!

New Amazon sellers (and unwise Amazon sellers) tend to watch too many YouTube videos about selling and quite often become obsessed with "winning the buy box" as their primary strategy on Amazon. This is a huge mistake.
Let's talk about winning SALES instead of just winning the buy box!
