Today's show discusses an inexpensive power tool for Amazon sellers called "Keepa".    Keepa is an indispensable part of any responsible and knowledgeable reseller on Amazon.   While it's an incredibly useful tool in the hands of an experienced seller, there are several things it cannot do that many sellers assume it CAN do!   The things keepa CAN NOT tell you include: > The buy box price across all regions > When sales are occurring or how many are happening (not tool can do that) > Which sellers are winning sales (it can only tell you about the buy box in one area)   It can help you make fantastic inventory decisions, BUT if you make false assumptions about the data that keepa is giving you, you'll wind up missing so many great ASINs and you'll be prematurely jumping on bad ASINs.   You can watch this epsiode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/9xp2mKxhnxg   Show note LINKS: My Silent Team Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

Are you "buy box" obsessed when it comes to winning sales on Amazon?You don't have to be! You can win steady sales WITHOUT winning the buy box!   This strategy has been proven over and over in our community, but it's certainly not the ONLY strategy we love for building a beautiful business on Amazon!   It's true - we've been providing ample evidence for a couple years now that wise Amazon sellers and ProvenAmazonCourse.com students that you can completely ignore the buy box and sell easily sourced boring products for prices well above competing sellers who sell the same item, but...   In our excitement in sharing these examples sometimes our students are left with the impression that we favor this "above buy box" strategy above other fantastic pricing and sourcing strategies.   Let's get to the bottom of the confusion! Our Guest on today's show is a great coach on our team, Grant Douglas. He uses both strategies as does our host Jim. They discuss the benefits advantages and disadvantages of both winning the buy box as well as opening up the doors to millions of new ASINs instantly by playing with "above buy box" strategies.   Listen to our announcement at the end of this episode to get details about this special opportunity! ProvenAmazonCourse.com/100 - Our pre-conference workshop titled Path to 100 ASIN's - The Replens Accelerator.

Can you help us solve an interesting challenge? Can e-commerce warriors aid in the fight to rescue trafficked women and children?   On today's new podcast episode I met with the director of the world's most effective human trafficking rescue organization.   They are called Project Rescue and they've been operating with great integrity and effectiveness for a very long time. They aren't asking for your donation - they are asking for your CREATIVE IDEAS.   They've rescued thousands of women and children from human trafficking, but they need our help with a creative business challenge.   After they rescue someone from trafficking, there is still a lot of work to do. That work involves providing training and finding meaningful work for the recovering victim.   Today I'm asking that the business building warriors (LIKE YOU) of our listening community to put on your thinking cap and help think through some of the challenges that this organization is facing.   We prayed that God would send us the right people and the right ideas to help solve the challenges business challenges faced by Project Rescue. This episode is a call to action to help fight one of the greatest evils of our time. I think you'll be challenged and motivated as well as you hear the story of what's being done by great entrepreneurs around the world who are truly making an impact in caring for others.   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here https://youtu.be/GiMnuiRUmcg   Show note LINKS:  Connect with Jon at JonathanBarratt@projectrescue.com Project Rescue's website ProjectRescue.com   TheProvenConference.com - Our May 2025 event - plan to join 100s of listeners to this show in Orlando May 29-31st, 2025!   JimCockrumCoaching.com - Get a free session with a business consultant on our team at 1-800-994-1792 / 1-801-693-1688 or TEXT US at 385-284-7701 (US & Canada only for Text)  ALL of our coaches are running very successful businesses of their own based on the models we teach here!   SilentSalesMachine.com - Text the word “free” to 507-800-0090 to get a free copy of Jim’s latest book in audio about building multiple income streams online (US only) or visit https://silentjim.com/free11   My Silent Team Facebook group. 100% FREE! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam - Join 80,000 + Facebook members from around the world who are using the internet creatively every day to launch and grow multiple income streams through our exciting PROVEN strategies!

Do you have questions and concerns about building a business on Amazon? Are you new to the idea?   The vast majority of new students who come into our community have a lot of the same questions you do.   To help address these concerns we had a unique idea recently.    I made a post in our large facebook group and asked for two "skeptical volunteers" from our community to hop on a podcast with me to discuss all of their concerns, scary rumors and candid questions regarding building a great business online using the strategies we teach (specifically ProvenAmazonCourse.com strategies for the REPLENS model that we teach to all new students)   It turned out to be a great episode!   We talked about: the time and investment required the risks the rumors the realities the odds of success the future prospects of the model who should use coaching can you do it on your own? ...and much more   This episode will be fantastic for anyone who finds themself curious but skeptical about what it is that we do in our community. There's a reason we have hundreds of success story interviews with our students. We work with serious students who are ready to change their lives. If that's you, check out this episode and then get in contact with us so we can begin your journey.   Stick around for the last few minutes of the episode today to hear an update about "The System".

"If I were in charge I'd make some big changes." You don't have to look far to find plenty of ideas from sellers on the topic of "how to make Amazon selling better", but we have to keep in mind that Amazon has multiple parties to keep in mind! There's the shopper (they are first ultimately and rightfully so) Then there's Amazon's own best interest (profitability, risk management, shareholders etc) ...and then there's the seller last but no least! I for one am so grateful for the Amazon reseller opportunity -it's provided incredibly consistent opportunities for 10s of thousands of families including my own and the future is very bright, but... Of all the ideas for improvement that are swirling around, I think I've found three that are great (with no downsides) for ALL THREE parties! The ideas are: Eliminate the suppressed buy boxes Show shoppers the fastest delivery option on ASINs with many sellers Show sellers more data in regards to understocked shelf space in the warehouse network Today's episode unpacks these ideas. If you're ready to get on the path to building a great business online, it's time to get into the ProvenAmazonCourse.com training!   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/3h0kwGpWBfU   Check out our episode sponsor: Profit Cyclops - Realtime Order Tracking and Profit Calculation Easy to view dashboards and charts in days, weeks and months.
