Once per week or so our Amazon seller leadership team and I love to go live on Zoom with whoever can join us and answer as many ecommerce and Amazon selling related questions as possible. We love to capture the best moments from these Monday night sessions for you and turn them into a podcast episode.
Highlights collected by the team:
Jim gives an overview of the community and why we recommend new sellers start with the Replens Model, which has a “low, low high” theme – low investment required, low learning curve and high odds of success! Jim also discusses the provenAZinfluencer.com program and how our community is getting excited about this newer program!
Jim discusses how there are discounts available for PAC and coaching students Listeners can also email support for any questions or concerns: [email protected]
Jim talks about how to use the MST Facebook page to find other sellers who are located close to you! He also highly recommends the Kick Start boot camp for those who have PAC as a way to jump start your business, meet other new sellers and create community with them! The Kick Start program is only $40 for 4 group coaching sessions – https://silentjim.com/kickstart.com and also has a private Facebook group so participants can connect! The Proven Conference is another great way to meet people and develop relationships that are so crucial to this business! https://theprovenconference.com
Conference will be May 23-25, 2024 in Orlando!
Jim talks about how important relationships are in this business and how it can be very lonely without them! The guest recommends a book called Fire Yourself First by Jeff Russell. Jim also recommends Business Secrets from the Bible by Rabbi Daniel Lapin, who will be the keynote speaker at this year’s Proven Amazon Conference! As far as a recession goes, Jim’s advice is to not participate!!
In May at the Proven Amazon Conference, Coaches Brian and Robin Joy are doing a workshop called 100 ASINs. They teach the 3 step check, 4 week test, to build a 5 figure business in 6 months if you are consistent! provenamazoncourse.com/100
Jim has suggestions and a word of warning for a newer seller in terms of utilizing a VA. Jim and Coach Robin Joy also give some guidelines for listing bundles: do not set up new listings if you are a newer seller – too many risks involved. https://provenbrandedbundles.com for a specific course on bundles and how to do it correctly!
New sellers often ask how to find profitable products but rather the question should be how to find “test worthy ASINs” or “underserved shelf space at Amazon!!” Jim has posted many examples on the My Silent Team Facebook page demonstrating exactly how this works! Jim recommends listeners go to Podcast #554 for an in depth discussion on this topic and Podcast #369 is a thorough discussion on Keepa!
The guest mentions the 3 step check that Robin Joy teaches in order to determine “the worst case scenario.” (more info about this in Podcast #612). Jim talks about the pink line on the Keepa chart in making this decision
