Summary

From my "8-Episode Remake for 2025" from my original podcast mini series I launched back in 2020 that turned Selling on Amazon with Andy Isom into one of the top Amazon podcasts in the world. 

 

In this episode, I break down one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in my Amazon FBA journey: Execution beats ideas—every time.

 

When I first started, I thought success came from finding a groundbreaking product idea. But I quickly realized that even an average product can outperform a "genius" one if you execute better than everyone else.

 

I’ll share my early mistakes, the mindset shift that changed everything for me, and a step-by-step approach to choosing and launching products in 2025.

 

You’ll learn why waiting for the perfect idea is holding you back, how to identify opportunities in "ordinary" products, and what great execution actually looks like on Amazon today.

 

Key Topics Covered:

 

  • Why execution matters more than the product idea
  • How to identify high-potential "ordinary" products
  • Practical steps to out-execute your competition

I've seen some of those students surpass $1 million in sales.

I've also seen some of those students never get a product launched.

I'm going to share with you why some go on to greatness and others fizzle to

failure. What I've learned is an amazing product idea doesn't guarantee success. In fact,

the idea itself only gets you so far. If you're sitting around waiting for that one million

idea to jumpstart your Amazon business, you're probably wasting valuable time. Because here's

your very first try is very small. That mindset of needing the perfect product idea is crippling

your ability to take action. Instead, focus on a proven product niche that already works and execute that product better

than anyone else.

1:17.6

When you create a product people already know and buy, you're starting with demand that's

already there.
