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.

Listen on the most popular podcast platforms including:

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.

Episode 161: A rant AGAINST the dropship business model
Listen on the most popular podcast platforms including:
iTunes · Stitcher · Podbean
As a rule, we are not fans of dropship business models - and for good reason. Today Jim dives into why he almost never suggests to new online business builders (or even experienced online business builders) that they should get into dropshipping on Amazon, eBay or other major platforms. Let's explore the risks and tell the story of a guy who sold nearly $70 million dropshipping and isn't advising anyone to go down that road. We'll tell you what you should be doing instead though!

Listen on the most popular podcast platforms including:

Having a hot selling product that ONLY you can sell on Amazon is a dream come true, right? Perhaps the easiest way to make this happen is to build an "exclusive relationship" with a product owner who doesn't really "get" Amazon. The good news is, there are millions of products that fit this description and there are a lot of good reasons for a brand owner to agree to partner up with you! Let's talk about how to lock in these great relationships!
