Today's provenamazoncourse.com success story interview is with a dad who works full-time but still squeezes in a few hours per week and has built an amazing business selling REPLENS and branded bundles.   In his own words, "great inventory is everywhere once you understand the system".   He started with selling used books, but quickly realized that was a grind he had little time to commit to. Once he got into REPLENS and then soon afterwards studied bundles, things took off!   Check out sellerboard - THE accurate profit analytics tool for Amazon sellers that helps you calculate your profit precisely accounting for all hidden fees and in real time.

Is it good advice or possibly dangerous advice to tell someone to "follow your passions"?

#836: Should you pursue your passions or profits when building your ecommerce income streams?

"Extraordinary success is sequential not simultaneous." Gary Keller   That's the theme on today's podcast episode.   Maybe you're asking...

Let's talk about it!   We've helped 1,000s of students find their way into profitable businesses through the ProvenAmazonCourse.com and other training opportunities, and based on that 20+ years of experience we can tell you that many people are caught in perpetual "study mode" instead of "take action" mode. What actions should you take NOW though in order to build a great future online?   We'll tell you EXACTLY what is next for you - and it's nowhere near as difficult or expensive as you might be imagining!   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: How can I know if a small retail store is "safe" for sourcing as a reseller on Amazon?    Watch today's episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/Sok9WNgQsFI   Show note LINKS:   Proven Amazon Course - https://ProvenAmazonCourse.com - Are you ready to be successful selling on Amazon?

#835: What's the first and next right steps for YOU RIGHT NOW in building a beautiful online business?

On average, every Amazon seller is owed between 1-3% of ALL SALES back from Amazon in lost reimbursements.   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 of pocket? (They only get paid a small cut when they find your money!)   GETIDA is that service - and if you use this link to sign up FOR FREE:   SilentJim.com/reimburse   ...then, they have $400 in free reimbursements for you right now! They'll never charge you a penny for their services and you can drop out anytime - no commitment necessary!   This really is a no brainer for anyone selling more than a few hundred dollars per month on Amazon.   On today's podcast episode, I talk about the beauty of AMAZON RESELLING, the future of the Amazon selling business models and the elegant service created by GETIDA that puts more money in YOUR POCKET while never costing you a dime!   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/muodLwb-Lnc   Show note LINKS:    https://TheProvenConference.com - It's not too late to attend our May 23-25th 2024 live event in Orlando!
