#1046: Laid off, locked out, and all in: Mike Alte’s Amazon turnaround

What happens when you lose your job in your fifties and the job market shuts its doors? For Mike Alte, the answer was resilience, resourcefulness, and a crash course in Amazon selling.  In this episode, Coach Brian Olson sits down with Mike to talk about the emotional rollercoaster of starting over, the turning points in his business journey, and how storefront stalking and Keepa mastery helped him go from frustrated job-seeker to full-time e-commerce entrepreneur. Mike’s story is a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself and that sometimes, failure really isn’t an option. Get ready for candid insights, rookie mistakes turned lessons, and practical tips you can use today to move your Amazon business forward.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com discusses why you shouldn't just "acknowledge fault" on Amazon seller violations.   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/oIEEGZ5CQ40   Show note LINKS:  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 - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

#1043: Three big reasons why right now is a great time for NEW sellers to get serious about Amazon selling

Is it possible that sellers who start selling NOW have an advantage over those of us who started say, 4 years ago?   I think so for several reasons! 1) Amazon has clarified several policies and enforcement is more consistent. 2) The tools and software we have now are incredible (i.e. automating a catalog of 1,000s of ASINs) and 3) the strategies we have available to us now are incredible compared to what we had even just a few years ago (example - finding above buy box ASINs)   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/GUkxebIX30w   Show note LINKS: 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   SilentJim.com/bookacall - Schedule a FREE, customized and insightful consultation with my team or me (Jim) to discuss your e-commerce goals and options.   My Silent Team Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

#1042: Why you’re not getting results (even if you’re killing yourself)

If you’re doing everything “right” but still not seeing results, this episode is for you. Brian and Robin Joy Olson unpack the toxic idea that struggle equals success and how believing you need to suffer to earn your wins might be the very thing holding you back.   They challenge the myth that you have to work harder, longer, and with more pain to deserve a breakthrough. Instead, they offer a better exchange: belief and consistent action over self-punishment. You’ll hear stories about burnout, false finish lines, why some people give up just before the snowball starts rolling and what it looks like to move with inevitability instead of fear.   This is a mindset shift every seller needs to hear. You don’t need more hustle. You need a better story about what success actually takes.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Can I ignore messages that come to me via Amazon messaging from other sellers?"   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/psY5g4Xj1Ik   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 - Schedule a FREE, customized and insightful consultation with my team or me (Jim) to discuss your e-commerce goals and options.   My Silent Team Facebook group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

#1041: Amazon has slightly changed how it reports sales rank and resellers need to know the facts

Today we have a three-way conversation between Jimmy Smith, Brian Olson and Jim. They discuss the recent changes in the way Amazon reports sales rank on ASINs and the fairly minimal but still significant change that this will have for some resellers as they use tools like Keepa to make good inventory buying decisions.   They also spend some time talking about how AI might impact the reselling business in the future.   It's a great conversation with a little something for everyone, but it's not the friendliest show for newbies, as some of the topics are fairly acronym-heavy.   Bottom line: the opportunity is only getting better, and the tools/strategies are getting better in the ever-expanding ocean of opportunity that is "Amazon reselling"   This episode also discusses why NOW is the best time to get into the ProvenAmazonCourse.com training because you can LOCK IN your monthly fee before the major price increase happens later this summer and all new students will be paying far more than your low grandfathered rate for this world class and constantly improving training!   Sponsored by SilentJim.com/buyorsell - Our preferred partner for selling your Amazon account or buying a new or seasoned account!   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/muY7HL05Ons   Show note LINKS :   TheProvenConference.com - Our Aug 15-16th virtual event.
