Summary

Today I get to interview my son Trey. He's 20 and he's built an incredible business applying the same principles we teach in our community. He's debt free, lives on his own in a great apartment and his business goal for 2020 is a $100K sales month (very high margins!) And get this - even though his dad (me) runs the number one Amazon seller training team in the world, Trey's business has literally NOTHING to do with seeing physical products online! All links available at https://SIlentJim.com/podcast
 
We are also excited to announce the launch our ProvenMastermind.com group as well in this episode. If you are looking to spend time with business building warriors who are making things happen, you should consider joining this virtual mastermind group! The website has details.

The guest that I have today is our 20-year-old son, Trey. He's giving us an update. It's been a while

0:34.5

since he was on the show. You've kind of seen him grow up around here

0:38.7

if you've been in this community. We have five kids, of course. They're all totally awesome. So

0:43.6

proud of all of them. And Trey is the second oldest. And he is pursuing multiple streams of

income using the internet creatively. It's something he's grown up watching his dad do

and he caught the bug. He's jumped into it with both beat and his business is simply incredible.

1:03.0

Clearing, easily clearing five, multiple five figures per month and a very flexible schedule

business, no school, college, I should say, no debt. He's got his

own apartment about half an hour from us downtown, Indianapolis. We live on the south side. He

for the product or service that you're providing and doing it profitably. That's what business is.

1:53.6

1:59.0

I've been doing this 20 years. That's how old

he is. That's all he knows. And so he's got some great instincts, some great lessons for us today.

2:06.7

The other thing you should know is, yes, he does have a course, but he's going to give us a special
