| 0:00.0 | Hello, hello, what's up? Welcome to Side Usual School. Thanks so much for tuning in today. |
| 0:13.2 | This is your host, Chris Gallabo. And today's episode is part of a feature we've been doing |
| 0:17.2 | called Your First Thousand Dollars. We started this at the beginning of 2022. We've been |
| 0:21.7 | going all year pretty much every Monday, I believe, coming out with a new story on how |
| 0:26.5 | someone made their first thousand dollars. How did they, in fact, go from idea to income? |
| 0:31.4 | How did they turn that into some significant income? And then often what happens after that first |
| 0:35.6 | thousand dollars is they go on to make much more. But we're interested specifically in those first steps. |
| 0:41.2 | So with that in mind, I just try to kind of get out of the way here. And today's feature comes |
| 0:45.1 | to us from Morgan. She is a fulfillment by Amazon seller. That means she's selling products that |
| 0:50.7 | Amazon handles the warehousing and the shipping, all that kind of stuff for. We've had a number of |
| 0:55.5 | case studies over the years of people who've done very well with this. There's also some cautionary |
| 0:59.4 | tales because there is a bit to it. You have to kind of do some research. But Morgan did that |
| 1:03.8 | research. And after some detailed research, she found the perfect product for resale. Let's hear |
| 1:09.1 | more about that from her. She is selling pots and plant holders. But as I said, she's going to tell |
| 1:13.5 | us the story. So I'll come back at the end with a quick wrap up. I want to tell you today about our |
| 1:18.9 | new sponsor, Lands End Business. Lands End Business offers fully customized clothes, accessories, |
| 1:24.6 | and promotional products featuring your logo and colors elevated by decades of experience. |
| 1:30.4 | Now Lands End sent me a box of some samples, including a high quality blanket. I thought it was |
| 1:36.0 | pretty cool. Got the nice Lands End Business logo on it. They also sent me a mug with Jordan |
| 1:41.5 | Harbinger's name on it. So Jordan, he's a pretty cool guy. He's got a podcast. I enjoy. And now I've |
| 1:46.6 | got a mug with his name on it. So that's cool. And you know, what can I say? Since 1993, |
| 1:52.0 | thousands of businesses have relied on Lands End Business to outfit their employees. |
