152. Turn Your Amazon Side Hustle into Full-Time with Corey Ganim
Welcome back to Mastering E-Commerce Marketing. Eitan Koter’s hosting today’s episode, and he’s joined by Corey Ganim, the guy behind Brand Rocket and The Wholesale Network.
Corey started his Amazon journey after leaving his job at IBM, and now he’s sold over $13 million worth of products through wholesale. But it didn’t happen overnight. In this episode, he shares how he built his business step by step, how he landed brand deals by just showing up consistently, and why sometimes the least “cool” products are the best ones to sell.
It’s one of those chats that clears up a lot of confusion about Amazon selling, especially wholesale, and shows what really goes on behind the scenes.
