#559: The most popular Amazon policy questions and points of confusion for sellers
Over the past few months we've spent a few minutes per week with Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com. He's the favorite Amazon policy and legal expert in our community and you'll benefit greatly from his real world experience and insights. The response has been fantastic as listeners have given us feedback about the "mini-segments" we've been releasing at the end of our Wednesday episodes. We decided to compile these mini-segments into one episode for you to enjoy all together in one place. You'll hear him sum up topics such as: How to safely set up new branded bundles on Amazon" Do I need to have an attorney on retainer for small Amazon legal issues? What's get people suspended on Amazon? Is it a concern? What are the odds of a permanent suspension if I sell on Amazon using the REPLENS strategies or other strategies taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course? What should a seller do when I get an IP complaint? As a replens seller, can I sell on listings that feature a "Generic" brand on Amazon? How can I find out if I am on accident? Why is Amazon limiting storage for some FBA sellers on the front end of Q4? What can we do about it? What are the red flags I should look for with IP (intellectual property) issue as an Amazon seller?

#558: Who can we NOT HELP when it comes to building an Amazon / Ecommerce business
On today's episode I analyze who we CAN and CAN'T help with our Ecommerce training. Having taught 1,000s of students over the years with our ProvenAmazonCourse.com training, we've noticed some obvious patterns. We've come to the realization that there are some people typically CAN'T help. If you fall into any of the categories I share on today's episode, we probably have little business support we can offer you on your Amazon/Ecommerce journey. The list includes things like this: Are you characterized by being a giver or a taker? Are you seeking to escape relationships and avoid others entirely? How many different potential business distractions are you pursuing right now? Your answers to these questions could make it VERY difficult for you to find business success with the strategies we teach. On the other hand, certain answers to these questions will give you a MASSIVE advantage in Ecommerce (and any other business model as well). Our latest sponsor!
