EP 70: Solopreneur Profitably Selling £1m+ a year on Amazon UK with Retail Arbitrage & Private Label w/ Saj Gilani [PART 2]

This is part two of my interview with Saj Gilani. As you recall, our first UK-based expert Amazon seller to the show, Saj started selling on Amazon in 2011 with only £300 pounds and a 37.5% APR credit card. Fast-forward four years on and he's running a seven-figure Amazon business split between private label and retail arbitrage. He has also co-founded and is managing and consulting four other Amazon accounts for split-profits. He has a podcast and blog, Anybody Can Do It, and an academy where he trains and mentors students to sell on Amazon.In the second half of this split-podcast, Saj talks about his approach to successfully creating a private label business. We also dive into some the tools and tactics that he employs on UK Amazon. We finish with learning more about the Amazon academy that Saj is building.The insights and advice Saj shares here are grounded in business fundamentals and hard-earned experience.Saj’s personal story of building an Amazon business from zero and constantly adapting and evolving with a positive outlook on an ever-changing landscape is both fascinating and inspiring, and not to be missed!     Read the show notes for this episode on http://2xecommerce.com/podcast/ep70/   Message from Our Sponsors: This episode is brought to you by Salsify.
