Clear the Shelf with Chris & Chris

In this episode we discuss productivity for Amazon sellers.   It's easy to say we are "always busy" but that line doesn't push the needle to where we want it to be.   Instead we need to focus on being productive.  We discuss principles, tricks, and tactics to make you a more productive Amazon seller.  Sometimes this may even include taking things away from your business that are actually hindering you.   Let us know what pain points you have in your Amazon business and we will follow this up with another episode diving deeper.   Enjoy the show!   We hope you enjoy the episode and we look forward to growing an arbitrage focused podcast with you.  Please let us know topics or guests you'd love to see covered in the show and we will do it.

In this episode we discuss time management for Amazon sellers.   Since both of us are self-described self help junkies we've read a thing or two about eating the frog and managing our time.   A lot of it hasn't stuck and we are, admittedly, not the best with time management so this may have been as much a therapy episode as a helpful episode.   We dive into topics like why so many people are bad at time management, how to get a handle on it, how to be honest with yourself about time management, and even some techniques you can take away to use for yourself.   Let us know what pain points you have in your Amazon business and we will follow this up with another episode diving deeper.   Enjoy the show!   We hope you enjoy the episode and we look forward to growing an arbitrage focused podcast with you.  Please let us know topics or guests you'd love to see covered in the show and we will do it.   RESOURCES FOR YOU: 🧰  https://www.ClearTheShelf.com (The Blog)  🧰  https://www.OAChallenge.com  🧰  Repricer Challenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/repricer-challenge  🧰  RabbitTrailChallenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/rabbit-trail-challenge  🧰  revROI Chrome Extension (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/revroi-extension  🧰  Goal Tracking Spreadsheet (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/goal-tracking   SOFTWARE & SERVICES I USE & RECOMMEND:  ✅  IP Alert (Code YT30 to Save $30) - https://entreresource.thrivecart.com/ip-alert/?coupon=YT30  ✅  Tactical Arbitrage (Code CLEARTHESHELF for a 10-Day Trial) - https://tacticalarbitrage.com/?frnd=12  ✅  AURA Repricer (Code CTS to Save 20% Off Your First 3 Months) - goaura.com/cts  ✅  RevSeller (Code PRO20 to Save $20) - https://www.revseller.com/32851/258.html   SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS:  📸  Instagram (Chris Grant): https://www.instagram.com/cleartheshelf/  📸  Instagram (Chris Racic): https://www.instagram.com/chris_oal247/  📱  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cleartheshelf  🕺  TikTok (Chris Grant): https://www.tiktok.com/@cleartheshelf  🐦  Twitter (Chris Grant): https://twitter.com/cleartheshelf

In this episode we discuss the looming recession.  Based on news reports, business owner, and consumer sentiment a recession may become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Not to worry though.  Chris & Chris dive into what to expect, how to pivot, how to spot opportunity, and what they will do during a recession.  It's not as doom and gloom as you may believe and some of the best companies have been founded during downturns in the economy.

What is price tanking on Amazon?   Is it an endemic problem or is there opportunity to be had?   Do we blame lead lists, newbie sellers, Amazon, or is there an unseen hand of the market that moves prices?     If we know certain rules of economics can we predict what may happen in the future to prices based off of historical data?   We answer all these questions and more in this week's episode of The Clear the Shelf Podcast with Chris & Chris.   Article Mentioned:  https://www.marketplacepulse.com/articles/us-e-commerce-nears-1-trillion  Enjoy the show!   We hope you enjoy the episode and we look forward to growing an arbitrage focused podcast with you.  Please let us know topics or guests you'd love to see covered in the show and we will do it.   Here are some resources for you:  🧰  https://www.ClearTheShelf.com (The Blog)  🧰  https://www.OAChallenge.com 🧰  Repricer Challenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/repricer-challenge 🧰  RabbitTrailChallenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/rabbit-trail-challenge  SOFTWARE & SERVICES I USE & RECOMMEND:  IP Alert (Code YT30 to Save $30) - https://entreresource.thrivecart.com/ip-alert/?coupon=YT30 Tactical Arbitrage (Code CLEARTHESHELF for a 10-Day Trial) - https://tacticalarbitrage.com/?frnd=12 AURA Repricer (Code CTS to Save 20% Off Your First 3 Months) - goaura.com/cts  RevSeller (Code PRO20 to Save $20) - https://www.revseller.com/32851/258.html  SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS:  Instagram (Chris Grant): https://www.instagram.com/cleartheshelf/ Instagram (Chris Racic): https://www.instagram.com/chris_oal247/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cleartheshelf

In this episode we discuss some business principles and laws that can both help and hurt your business.  We also discuss how you can use them to your advantage or overcome them so they don't become stumbling blocks in your Amazon business.

It's the ultimate dream.   I give someone I can trust some money and they turn it into a system that just prints money while I go about my day lounging poolside or perfecting my golf swing (although that would probably require a few lifetimes).   This dream is being sold to a lot of people right now and they call it Amazon Automation.   It's actually a nightmare.   We dive into what Amazon Automation is, why it won't actually work but then we discuss 3 ways you can actually make money online with Amazon and reduce the risk to your account AND your hard earned capital.   Enjoy the show!   We hope you enjoy the episode and we look forward to growing an arbitrage focused podcast with you.  Please let us know topics or guests you'd love to see covered in the show and we will do it.   Here are some resources for you:   🧰  https://www.ClearTheShelf.com (The Blog)   🧰  https://www.OAChallenge.com   🧰  Repricer Challenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/repricer-challenge 🧰  RabbitTrailChallenge (Free) - https://cleartheshelf.com/rabbit-trail-challenge SOFTWARE & SERVICES I USE & RECOMMEND:  IP Alert (Code YT30 to Save $30) - https://entreresource.thrivecart.com/ip-alert/?coupon=YT30  Tactical Arbitrage (Code CLEARTHESHELF for a 10-Day Trial) - https://tacticalarbitrage.com/?frnd=12  AURA Repricer (Code CTS to Save 20% Off Your First 3 Months) - goaura.com/cts  RevSeller (Code PRO20 to Save $20) - https://www.revseller.com/32851/258.html    SOCIAL MEDIA LINKS:  Instagram (Chris Grant): https://www.instagram.com/cleartheshelf/  Instagram (Chris Racic): https://www.instagram.com/chris_oal247/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cleartheshelf

Perfection.  That elusive dream where everything is hitting on all cylinders, life and business are in perfect alignment, and growth is inevitable. Unfortunately, that dream is just that.  Elusive. Instead, we should focus on getting things done.  Even if they aren't perfect.  Because action will drive results and even if the results are imperfect you will have been able to learn, see the mistakes, pivot, and grow in the future. In this episode we cover why done is better than perfect and how you can overcome that need to know everything before getting started or conquering that next hurdle. Enjoy!
