Summary
Today's guest is the latest example of a student of the REPLENS model who is using a virtual assistant and a prep center to run an amazing business with flexible hours. With only four months notice that he'd be possibly losing/leaving his job, he had to act fast, so he jumped into REPLENS.
Jump forward 18 months, and now as a stay home dad of three, he's never been more excited about the future than he is right now as his business continues to scale. "The less I work the more I earn", he says of his increasingly automated business. The business has grown to the point where his most recent month was $140K in sales at 12-15% net margin (before paying himself). If you'd like to learn these strategies yourself, we teach them in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com REPLENS training and in our JimCockrumCoaching.com program.

| 0:00.0 | A business building warrior, I've got a guest on the show today, but I think you're really |
| 0:06.5 | going to enjoy. He is built a business that sells most recent full month was $140,000 at about |
| 0:14.5 | 12 to 13%. Let me check my notes, 12 to 15% net margin typically. Not a bad gig And he hasn't been doing it all that long either. He's, of course, using the Amazon Replins system that you hear us talk about so much on this podcast. If you listen to a couple hundred episodes of this show, all the testimonial episodes, the most recent ones are people talking about 99% of them |
| 0:39.4 | are talking about the Amazon replans system that we've got, I believe, as dialed in as it can be |
| 0:46.6 | as a system to take you from no and nothing up to having an awesome business. And today's guest is |
| 0:52.7 | just another example of that. |
| 0:55.9 | He's a dad with three young kids. |
| 1:01.8 | His wife runs her own business, keeps a busy schedule, but he's able to be home and help with the house duties and squeeze this business into the cracks. |
| 1:05.7 | He works about 20, sometimes as much as 30 hours a week, but he's in the process of even |
| 1:10.1 | turning over those |
| 1:12.1 | responsibilities to someone else. He's got a virtual assistant that helps him find profitable |
| 1:17.0 | products. He's using a prep center that you've heard us talk about many times on this show, |
| 1:21.0 | which is just someone that receives your inventory for you. Let's say you shop online and buy |
| 1:25.2 | something. Well, instead of shipping it to your own house, |
| 1:28.0 | you ship it to a prep center. They take it out of the box, inspect it, make sure it is what you |
| 1:33.0 | ordered, put a sticker on it, send it into Amazon for you. That's what a prep center does. |
| 1:38.3 | He talks a little bit about that today, and he's built an incredible business, just looking for |
| 1:42.9 | great replans online using creative |
| 1:45.5 | strategies that he shares with us. And it's coming close to being a fully automated business. |
| 1:52.3 | He didn't start until about 18 months ago, never sold online. That's when he got started. |
| 1:57.3 | And like I said, he's ramped up very quickly and he's doing a really good job of it. |
| 2:02.0 | Looking over my notes here, one of the things he pointed out was that he had about four months |
