Jim was recently asked to record a training session on the topic of the power of building relationships for business success. In this training he shares the timeless truths that have served the most successful leaders and business builders of all time. Don't make the mistake of thinking "building relationships" is simply a matter of being kind to strangers and making a few friends along the way (those are good things of course, but there's far more to be learned!) Being intentional, proactive and creative in your relational efforts is vital and your business will flourish if you do it right. This training session gives specifics and plenty of examples.

Episode 179: HUGE opportunity in the millions of products that aren't on Amazon yet
Listen on the most popular podcast platforms including:
iTunes · Stitcher · Podbean
Today we meet two guests who are making serious money by simply helping OTHER PEOPLE'S products that aren't yet on Amazon get onto Amazon. This trend is only growing larger as Amazon moves away from buying products directly for their warehouses and relies instead on products owners (and us as third party sellers) to help fill the shelves. If you have even a minimal knowledge of how to sell products on Amazon, this is a mega trend opportunity you can't ignore and it's risk free, with no investment required and no inventory to carry or buy ever. Our newest course at ProvenProductPartnering.com gives you everything you need to jump in!

iTunes · Stitcher · Podbean
Today we meet an instructor at Missouri State University, Dana Fredrick who is excitedly introducing concepts from the Proven Amazon Course into the classroom at Missouri State University. As a fellow business building warrior I thought you'd be interested to hear the perspective of someone from a "traditional" educational institution on how they view Ecommerce opportunities and specifically how they are applying the PAC to their entrepreneurship educational program. We are in talks with a good handful of universities right now and will have more updates for you soon on this rapidly developing story. We were honored when Dana sought us out to talk about the MSU vision for producing successful entrepreneurs using our content. Increasingly, PAC is establishing itself as the cutting edge content of choice in the Amazon selling space!

This episode is off the typical topics of business building tips, but it's also a topic that comes up quite a bit when our family is around other business building families. At our recent CES live event it seemed like as many people talked to me about my kids and how we are educating and raising them as much as any other topic. In this episode I give a couple of practical tips for parenting your kids in a way that sets them up for success as an employee, or better yet in my humble opinion, as a business building warrior! If you don't have kids, this episode may not be for you, but for those who have been asking me to talk about this a bit, I hope you find these ideas practical and helpful!

Guess what time it is?! Yes it's Q4! In this super short episode Jim talks about the last three months of the year - which is when online shoppers go CRAZY and the retail stores begin to feed us as online sellers a never ending wave of profitable inventory! Online selling warriors need to get ahold of as much valuable, profitable inventory as possible for Q4 - and now is the time to do it! In this episode, Jim explains the mechanics of the ProvenQ4Plan.com strategy. These are our popular small sourcing groups that we do each year. Remember, timing is everything. You can spend lots of valuable time researching by digging out this information on your own or you could instead serve the market with speed getting items listed and SOLD instead of wasting time researching! Just one great tip from our Q4 groups and your membership is paid for! We'll be posting a steady stream of deals though - you'll run out of money before you run out of profitable deals!

We can say now more than ever (with extreme confidence) that your success in private label doesn't have to be complicated!

Do you ever feel like there are more opportunities and good business ideas out there than you even have time to investigate? I can help! After helping thousands of entrepreneurs and online business building warriors like you since 2002 we've detected some patterns on how and why many of us wind up on dead ends. Many of us leap before we ask the most important basic questions about all those "good ideas" we run into. Today I have seven basic questions for you - ask them all before you leap!
- Is this a good fit for your current budget, schedule, talents, experience and connections?
- Will you be creatively serving others if you pursue this model? Is it something you’ll be proud to associate with?
- Does my spouse or the people who know me best think it’s a good fit for me?
- Are there others doing well with this model that I can follow? What’s their success rate? Are they available to answer questions and help me?
- Are there major trends or outside forces that make this a good/bad idea?
- Can it be expanded, automated or lead to other bigger and better income streams as it grows?
- Is the opportunity cost unrealistic? In other words, What do I have to give up to pursue this?

If you don't have an email list tied to your online business then you have a business that could possibly vanish in an instant. The most valuable asset you can ever have is a list of people who WANT to hear from you and it's not complicated to get started. It's not nearly as much work as you might be thinking either! No matter what business you are in off or online, you need to be thinking about email marketing. Don't be nervous about getting dropped by eBay, Google, Facebook or Amazon. Grow your own audience!

Description
In this initial episode I address two basic questions.
Question One: Who is this podcast for?
Answer: It's for anyone wanting to start an online Internet based business or have more success in their online business. We'll have an emphasis on the three business models that we teach. It's the same models that we have used to create thousands of success stories in our large community.
Question Two: What is the foundational "secret sauce" that drives my success and the success of all my clients (even those clients who have a DIFFERENT worldview than I do)?
The answer is simple – and I reveal it in this episode.
