#838: Considering launching a brand on Amazon? (or if you have a brand) - you need to hear this

There's a little known program that's been around for nearly 15 years that gives $10K worth of paid ads (PayPerClick) from Google EVERY MONTH. It's easier to qualify than you can imagine. Odds are you DO NOT have a non-profit organization right now, but stick with me - you easily COULD have one in a matter of days, and then you'd have a massive advantage over those who are unaware of this opportunity. This is legit, legal ethical and above board. You can do this the RIGHT WAY and you'll love it ...

Is it good advice or possibly dangerous advice to tell someone to "follow your passions"? Is it better to "pursue profits" instead of "following your passions"? Are there business models that you can become passionate about once you see the happy customers you've served well all lining up to say "thank you"? Which comes first, FEELING GOOD or TAKING ACTION? All these topics are important for a business building warrior, and I'd venture to say that nearly 100% of the scores of successful students...

These are funds that most sellers will never collected UNLESS they are constantly staying on top of all owed reimbursements from loss, damage, misplaced etc. inventory at Amazon FBA. Wouldn't it be cool if there was a company that charged you NOTHING to find all those reimbursements and get you the cash you're owed? Better yet, what if you could try them out and never pay them a penny out o...
