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.

Today we meet a business building duo with an impressive Amazon business and they happen to also be a brother and sister team. The backbone of their business is over $1million in sales of primarily "hard to find" grocery items that are selling very well for them on Amazon. They don't introduce NEW products into Amazon, instead they find products that are already selling well (learned with the REPLEN strategy that we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse that pops up so often in our success stories on this show). They are also using creative bundle strategies such as the ones we are rolling out soon in our ProvenBrandBuilding.com course. They recently became coaching students as well. You'll hear them share about the benefits and challenges of working with family as well as several specific tips and tools that they've found helpful in their business building journey. You'll enjoy spending time with this enthusiastic and accomplished team! Today's guest John and Lisa (last names withheld upon request) Check out this episode sponsor - Payoneer.com.

Today we meet a student who is doing very well selling on Amazon while also generating results with several other strategies that she's learned primarily from the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course. The "PAC" contains modules for numerous strategies, and Vicky has jumped into many of them with excellence. As a former school teacher turned homeschool mom, she's really great at communicating her inspirational story that's sure to have several great lessons and motivational tidbits for you to enjoy. She sold about $250K in 2020 on Amazon and is on pace to sell $500K in 2021 at 35% margin using some Replens strategies, bundling strategies and her own brand that she's now building.

Today's guests are heading towards doing $1.4-1.5Million in sales on Amazon in 2021 and are projecting to double that next year.
