This episode of Silent Sales Machine Radio takes you behind the scenes of the entrepreneurial journey most people don’t show on social media—the messy middle. Join Brian and Robin Joy in Coaches’ Corner as they share candid stories about working through setbacks, building confidence, and keeping promises to yourself, even when early results feel discouraging.   Discover why success isn’t about plotting the perfect path but about taking the next imperfect step, testing one ASIN at a time, and learning to trust your own consistency. From the power of simple commitments to reframing “failures” as neutral experiments, this conversation will inspire you to keep showing up—because everything you want really is on the other side of hard.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "What should I do if I get a 'cease and desist email or letter' from a brand I'm selling?"   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/zHwuTk43V24   Show note LINKS:   SilentJim.com/kickstart - If you want a shortcut to learning all you need to get started then get the Proven Amazon Course and go through Kickstart.   SilentJim.com/bookacall - Book a FREE call here to discuss our offers including coaching, legends and ProvenAmazonCourse.com course   My Silent Team Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!
