#862: From REPLENS to launching his own product - another ProvenAmazonCourse story
We have an all new podcast episode for you today. It's an interview with a ProvenAmazonCourse.com REPLENS student. It's about a homeschool family who has spent considerable time travelling in their fifth wheel trailer while raising five kids while growing their business. They've built a very nice income (their only income) by selling on Amazon helping fill the underserved shelf space at Amazon's 100s of warehouses (we call this selling model "replens"). Our guest Jared is also well on his way towards launching his own brand of unique candle designs and it's going very well! As with all the other 100s of stories from PAC students that we've shared on our show, Jared's story has ups and downs and plenty of insights and lessons that will benefit us all! One big theme towards the end of the episode is about finding a way to fund your dreams and passions. We both agree - building an Amazon biz with the basic models we teach here can be the foundational fuel that allows you to go deeper into the arenas you are passionate about - and that's exactly what Jared is doing!

#860: Lessons learned building towards a multiple seven figure Amazon REPLENS business
On today’s new episode we hear from a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student named Andrew who has been in our community for a few years now. He’s well on his way to having a multiple seven figure business as a one man show. He's moving away from tedious spreadsheets and complex tracking systems for his catalog of products into using "the system" which we’ve been talking about a lot recently. You can learn more about "the system" , our complete workflow software for Amazon sellers here: SilentJim.com/thesystem Andrew lives in Canada and sells in both the US and Canada. We discuss his history in the Proven Amazon Course community, the types of products he sells, the tools he is using and several tips and strategies that have helped him get to where he is. His story, as with so many others is of course not a perfect story of smooth sailing every day, but he’s built a beautiful business with a bright future. I learned a lot in our discussions and I think you will as well if you're on the path towards building a beautiful business on Amazon.

#857: A coach on our team talks about what comes after Amazon REPLENS
We spend a lot of time in our community and our our podcast talking about the Amazon selling model that is used by virtually all of the new Amazon sellers in our community. That strategy of course is called the "Amazon Replens" system - the system that teaches you how to identify and fill the underserved shelf space at Amazon's 100's of warehouses (as taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course) Today's new podcast episode however is a little different because we talk to a coach on our team who started out as a struggling new seller making many mistakes, and then he began to succeed with the replens system after finding our community. From there though he successfully moved on to other models such as Bundles and Private Label and even the "agency" model (sometimes called PPP in our community - or "Proven Product Partnering" - and those more advanced models are the heart of the discussion today. We love bringing you real stories from real students and leaders in our community who are doing great things, and today is another inspirational episode! If you’d like to have a conversation with our team about your e-commerce business and see which of our products or services, might help you get where you are trying to go faster, schedule a call with us.

#855: Lessons learned from ProvenAmazonCourse conference
In today's episode we have Brian and Robin Joy from Coaches Corner giving us advice for those who recently attended The Proven Conference in Florida and those who are using our strategies taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com Finding success on Amazon takes time and persistence. Focus on understanding ASINs rather than just finding them, and don't expect immediate six or seven-figure success. Believe in your ability to succeed, stay committed, and accept that there will be challenges along the way. Brian's Golf Swing Analogy paints a picture of perfecting and honong bisiness skills. Success on Amazon is like a golf swing where the ball is in the way. Attending conferences, workshops, and getting coaching can significantly increase your chances of success. Combining all three maximizes your potential for success, much like a perfect golf swing. Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com discusses deleting shipments in your Amazon seller workflow dashboard. Is it a risk to your account or not?
