One of the biggest challenges most ecommerce sellers face is inventory and the cash flow constraints of purchasing large amounts of inventory.

For years, I have heard people talk about dropshipping as a way of purchasing products once you get the order, and I have wanted to bring someone on who understands the dropship business model.

That is why I am excited to bring on Lester Love to talk about dropshipping and whether or not this business model could be a strategy to add revenue for your business.

Selling on Amazon is, in my opinion, an overall positive experience. Yes, there are some frustrations that come up from time to time….

But what happens when things go from frustrating to just downright bad (and you might need to get a lawyer involved).

In this episode I am happy to bring on attorney CJ Rosenbaum who focuses on helping Amazon sellers. He shares what to do if you are faced with really serious situations (and even gives examples of how to avoid those situations, so you don't need a lawyer).

I'm excited to bring on Sharon Even for an interesting discussion on what to do when things are changing in the world (which it seems to be a lot of that lately). Sharon brings a unique entrepreneurial background, dating back to negotiating with suppliers at 10.

Where there is change, there is opportunity...

An often overlooked marketplace is Australia. It is relatively new and is rapidly growing. I am excited to bring on Jon Tilley from ZonGuru. He presented an interesting perspective on going after larger markets in Australia than I had heard before.

One of the most important and foundational strategies you can do to grow your sales on Amazon is by running paid ads. If done well, PPC can be the best way to profitably drive sales and growth. However PPC can also be a drain on your budget if not done well.

To talk about profitable strategies for PPC, I am excited to welcome Ritu Java from PPC Ninja. Ritu has extensive experience with Amazon PPC, including starting off by doing the ads for an 8-figure selling in the competitive electronics space.

Side note… Ritu was one of the first people I met when I went to an in-person conference for the first time.

Ready to level up your ecommerce business?

One of the best (and most underrated) ways to grow is by masterminding with others. I am excited because I have gotten the chance to see first-hand the power of connecting with others in masterminds from my two guests John Spellman and Brian Reintgen.

They have taken part in a couple of masterminds I have been involved with or hosted, and I have seen them do great things as a result… including paying off their debt, launching new products, running a more profitable business, and just overall being more happy with the direction they are going in business.

Kudos to them for being open to feedback from other like-minded sellers and for having the willingness to implement tips. They are a perfect example of implementing a tip from someone that can have life-changing effects...

One question I get frequently is about bookkeeping. Starting out you can pull a couple of reports and throw them on a spreadsheet and be ok (probably).

As you get bigger and add more channels, your business becomes more complex, and so does the amount of time you have to spend on bookkeeping (especially if you have multiple currencies).

I have found that unless you have a passion for accounting and have an intimate knowledge of bookkeeping software, bookkeeping is one of those things you should outsource to someone who know what to do.

Oftentimes sellers will work with someone who maybe understands bookkeeping but they don't really understand ecommerce, and then they end up asking me for recommendations.

I've used the same bookkeeper for over three years, and my CPA has been happy with their work (and he would definitely tell me if he wasn't).

Good bookkeepers can be hard to find (especially that understand this business). That is why I am excited to bring on Siddhartha Havelia and Manvi Aurora who do the bookkeeping for my business.

Their company, Mercurius Advisory Services, is one of the top ranked bookkeeping services on both the Amazon Service Provider Network and Upwork.

Plus I find that they are good at explaining things so I brought them on for a discussion about bookkeeping and to share ways you can better manage "the books" to keep an eye on your profitability.
