Summary
Today's guest has learned from the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course, our coaching and a lot of lessons on his way to building a business that allowed him to come home from his construction job and four hour daily commute.
He also tells us today that his ProvenReplensVA.com virtual assistant is finding him more profitable inventory that he can keep up with buying!
He made the VERY common mistake (before finding our community) of attempting to launch private label brands on Amazon as a new seller. As we've shared so many times on past episodes, the failure rate with that model is extraordinarily high. We far prefer that our students fuel their Amazon journey with profits that they earn while they learn!
It hasn't been all sunshine and rainbows for our guest as he's learned and grown, but he's built something special and you'll learn many great lessons today!
