He discovered REPLENS and ramped...

Whether you are experienced or brand new to the concept of selling on Amazon, today I go through the most common decision points involved in helping our students make a good decision.

Today we meet a coaching student who only recently joined our program after realizing she'd been spinning her wheels listening to others offering her helpful, yet incomplete Amazon selling strategies for a couple years. She works a full-time job she likes, but she hopes to make her ecommerce business her sole source of income eventually. It's a realistic goal based on her trajectory. Her story is a bit of a cautionary tale. Even before she found our community, she was working in the best Amazon ...

Our guest today started just a few months ago as an Amazon seller, but already he's had a $110K sales month at solid margins. He started a little over six months ago and dove head first into the REPLENS systems that we talk about so much on this show. He's doing some creative things that we don't hear often on our show - for example, he's doing a fair amount of international Amazon to Amazon "flips" with success and he describes his process today. He's also not afraid to dig deep into Keepa data...

There are some common concerns that new sellers sometimes have that keep them from "jumping in" on the Amazon seller strategies that we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course.

I don't want to prep inventory and ship it (you don't have to!) I've heard Amazon suspensions are scary (they aren't) I want an automatable online business model (this is!) PS: ...
