#891: Does the perfect business exist online? Have we found it? Let's talk about it.

If you were tasked with coming up with a list of characteristics of the perfect business model, what would you put on that list?   For me, I'd include things like low risk, flexibility, transportable (I can put my biz in my pocket and go anywhere), scalable, sellable someday (I want to build an asset), generates multiple opportunities for other income streams, all of the big trends in culture are in my favor (a growing market), a community of other people who are successfully doing the model that I can learn from and grow with, the ability to add family to my business if I choose to...   And for many people -   The ability to TEST and PROVE the biz model with a very small amount of capital and time (say, $500 or so).   What else would you add to your list of perfect business model characteristics?   I'm pretty sure we can PROVE that we have found the model that meets all these criteria... and more. It's what we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com "new seller" modules.   Let's talk about it.

#890: Student has his first $1k day just a couple weeks into coaching

We love to see ProvenAmazonCourse.com students get off to a fast start with success early in their journey! Today's guest is a new PAC and coaching student who took action and already is seeing tremendous results.   Thanks to the training he received, he recently jumped on a listing on Amazon with 200+ other sellers and sold a TON of product (2,400 units). He sourced them from local Target stores (they cleared their inventory from storage for him).   The best part - he was the HIGHEST PRICED SELLER of all 200+ sellers!!   He was able to do this because he understands one of the core lessons from the PAC/replens training which is to look for UNDERSERVED shelf space at Amazon. Once you grasp that concept, there's opportunity everywhere.   Listen to today's brand new show and others here: https://SilentJim.com/podcast   Watch today's episode here: https://youtu.be/mwBH5gF9fao   Show note LINKS:  Join the discussion about Amar's 2,400 units sold at the highest price with 200+ other sellers here: (you will need to be a member of our free MST facebook group) https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam/posts/8152688351513870   "The System" - the software Amar is using to automate the workflow of his Amazon business: SilentJim.com/thesystem   The free book Amar read to start his journey: SilentJim.com/free11   SilentJim.com/bookacall - Book a call here to discuss our offers including coaching, legends and ProvenAmazonCourse.com course   My Silent Team Facebook group. 100% FREE! https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam - Join 77,000 + 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!
