| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is Jim. Welcome to Silent Sales Machine Radio. I've got some guests today that you're going to enjoy getting to know with me. It's Kip and Wendy Sykes. And they've been in our community for a couple years. Their business has rocketed. And they started off with another selling concept. and it was going okay. They were scanning |
| 0:22.7 | barcodes and flipping product on Amazon, which is good. And they actually built it up to a quarter |
| 0:27.9 | million dollar business. They were working really hard to do that. But as you'll hear from Kip, |
| 0:32.9 | sometimes he'd come home and the car would be empty. No inventory. And that's, that's disheartening. |
| 0:38.2 | Well, we don't teach those strategies here. The proven Amazon course was their key to opening up an |
| 0:44.1 | entirely new strategy where they actually never come home with an empty car when they source. |
| 0:49.3 | And they're sourcing some other creative ways. They're looking to get into private label. |

| 1:28.4 | right now. You got murder hornets. You got the heat. It's the middle of a hot summer. You've got the |
| 1:33.7 | pandemic, of course. You've got in different cities, some of the different activities in the streets |
| 1:38.8 | that are making people nervous and some of the writing and different things going on. So people are |
| 1:42.5 | staying home and shopping a whole lot more. |
| 1:45.3 | So this isn't a show about the negatives. This is the show about the positives, the opportunities, |
| 1:49.3 | the way that you can continue to serve. Even when the world's going a little crazy, |
| 1:53.8 | there's people doing really, really well, serving well, putting money in the bank, |
