After having coached thousands of students as well as interacting with about that many in our ProvenAmazonCourse.com course, we’ve definitely noticed some trends.   I feel very strongly that I can help you make a great next decision on where you should go with your e-commerce business decision making once we examine a few factors related to your life situation.   The fact is, at any given season of life you will have a very different level of "margin" in your life in the most important areas.   How much time you have and how much money you have are only two of the factors that require consideration.   There are other important considerations that I’d like to discuss with you today to help you make the best possible decision on your next step in growing your multiple income streams online.   Check our YouTube channel and watch today's episode: https://youtu.be/ZQLEn16YiHI   Don't forget to check out sellerboard, our awesome sponsor - THE accurate profit analytics tool for Amazon sellers that helps you calculate your profit precisely accounting for all hidden fees and in real time.

  Once per week or so I love to go live on Zoom in the Facebook group with whoever can join me and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. Recently, we recorded one of these sessions for you. The questions we discussed this time clarify what is the "replens model", my background story in doing this over twenty years, how to get around gated categories as a new seller, the difference between a brand and a category and how to better understand profit margins.  This episode has great tips and resources for all skill levels of sellers - enjoy!   If you'd like to join us for a live zoom session, the next one is Monday July 24th at 5PM ET (New York time) and you are invited to join us using this zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/84823798446   Show note LINKS:   My Silent Team Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

Jim’s answer is 100% with certainty and then suggests looking into the 620 podcast episodes and 1700 pinned Facebook posts of selling success. He then explains the big industry statistics - 16% of retail activity is online (Amazon is about ½ of those transactions). The other 84% is offline!! The trajectory of potential selling growth due to online spending is incredible!    In this segment, Jim discusses the upcoming Virtual AI Conference and the ProvenBotSourcing.com course    Jim discusses different ways new sellers start - some with just the free FB page, free podcasts and the PAC (about $39/mo). Some with coaching, which does cost more and is an option but certainly not necessary! Jim also recommends new sellers watch: SilentJim.com/introvideo, which explains what replens are    Jim says how important relationships are in business and how it really is the key to being successful!!    “Can you explain what qualifies as an underserved ASIN?” In this segment, Jim explains, in detail, that the goal is not to find profitable products but rather underserved ASINs. Podcast episode #554 goes along with this and is a really good listen for new sellers    Jim explains the path to follow when getting started with Amazon selling: PAC - Module - Getting Started and Module - Amazon 101, then replenishable training, then advanced Keepa training (multiple creative ways to use Keepa), listen to Podcast #369 - Keepa training to REALLY understand it    Jim discusses the My Silent Team Coaching Program and explains how the sales process is not pressured and the only way success is measured is by success stories    “If you’ve got this, is it a profitable winner mindset…?” Jim further explains the replen model using marshmallows as an example - reminding sellers NOT to look for winning products but rather winning ASINs.    The guest asks Jim about selling on Amazon from a country outside the US and not having a US based credit card. Jim mentions the PAC Module - InternationalAZ.com that is available for international sellers. He also talks about the process for how to do this as well as shipping to a prep center    “What is the minimum ROI we use for sourcing…” Jim discusses ROI - suggests a minimum for new sellers of 40% and a net margin of 25%. Also mentions the tool Rev Seller to help determine these numbers. Jim also suggests branded bundles as a good direction to go once new sellers learn the basics    Jim - “So Sarah is asking if the new bot program will require TA…” Jim talks about the new bot sourcing program and how it will NOT require Tactical Arbitrage (TA)    Jim discusses mastermind groups and how to go about finding others who live in the same area who have similar interests and goals         

Today's brand new interview is with yet another student who is about six months into his Amazon, e-commerce business building journey using the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course as his guide. He's just had his first ever $3,000 sales day and he has some great lessons to share with us about the journey.   We also just returned from our annual live event, (TheProvenConference.com has details) and he shares how impactful the event was for him and his business. He's also just signed up to be coached by one of the JimCockrumCoaching.com coaches, and he's super eager to continue to scale.   He works full-time and has a beautiful family that he loves to spend time with, but in his spare time he's building something beautiful online!   Watch this episode on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/3UABR6PSl3E   Don't forget to check out sellerboard, our awesome sponsor - THE accurate profit analytics tool for Amazon sellers that helps you calculate your profit precisely accounting for all hidden fees and in real time.

One of the most rewarding aspects of serving our rapidly growing community of successful business building warriors is watching "newbies" get momentum with our provenamazoncourse.com, start to succeed, teach us new things they've learned along the way, step into leadership and then become a coach on our team!   That's the path our guest today took enroute to becoming a coach on our team! He's a teacher by career and he's bilingual (Spanish/English). You'll love his story of how he's gone from "skeptic" to building a beautiful business with the strategies we teach. There are plenty of examples and insights to enjoy on today's episode!   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of https://JeffSchick.com answers the question: Can I have someone else monitor and take care of my Amazon account health for me?

After watching 1,000s of ecommerce businesses launch in our community and observing who "makes it" long term and who doesn't, I've definitely detected some incredible patterns.   Here's a hard question: Why is it that people who have MORE disadvantages and MORE desperation and MORE right to a list of complaints and excuses than you do seem to be performing FAR BETTER than you are in their ecommerce or provenamazoncourse.com business models?   Have you ever noticed that or seen it around you? We see it here everyday.   I'm not the only one observing these patterns either - there seems to be timeless truths emerging in this pattern. There's even a recent best selling book that identifies these exact patterns as well - it asks the question:   "Why do immigrants (better described as 'emigrants') who build businesses succeed more frequently than do natural born citizens from that same culture?"   ... that's what I discuss on today's episode.   Once you know you have a viable business model to follow, the person in the mirror might be the only one holding you back from extreme success.   See if you agree with my take on the best selling book discussed on today's episode.   Book discussed: "The Emigrant Edge" by Brian Buffini   Today's episode is sponsored by High Five. https://silentjim.com/highfive Free software helping to get more reviews for your Amazon listings.   Watch this episode on YouTube https://youtu.be/B0csdM1qVYM   Show note LINKS:    My Silent Team Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!

Jim offers suggestions as well as emphasizes how important relationships are in this business!    Jim discusses the Proven Brand Bundle course and how he is seeing some really successful stories come out of using this method.    The guest asks Jim about being a new seller and being gated. Jim suggests the following categories for new sellers as these categories are not gated: sports and outdoor, kitchen, bath, household goods, arts and crafts, pet supplies (not food). After selling approximately 30-40 units, the gates will start to “fall open!” Jim also recommends the this course for selling books: provenamazoncourse.com/safebookprofits    Jim discusses being approved for categories vs brands. He also discusses First Sale Doctrine and shares a good Nike story! Jim also shares his confidence with Amazon selling for the upcoming years!    Jim discusses net profit (margin) and what that looks like for Amazon sellers (depending on where the seller is in their business)    Show note LINKS: My Silent Team Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam 100% FREE!
