Summary

One of the secrets to success behind Rich Potter's multi-million dollar Amazon wholesale/replens business is hiring great people! Today we meet someone he hired whom he met at a gym registration desk. The new hire started out packing and shipping products, but quickly took on more duties with an eager and ambitious attitude. He's now helping find new wholesale opportunities and discover new hot selling bundles as well as managing two virtual assistants. Today I interview that "new hire turned business manager". It's a motivating story with many great lessons for business builders of all levels!
 
Today's guest: Richard Cluff - the warehouse and business manager on Rich and Shelley Potter’s team.
