| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior. This is Jim. Welcome to silent sales machine radio. I have a short |
| 0:07.7 | episode for you today with what I think is a pretty powerful lesson. We're seeing many sellers in our |
| 0:13.3 | e-commerce community take advantage of what I'm about to teach you. And it can be extremely powerful. |
| 0:19.8 | I'll tell you what the results are of applying this strategy. |
| 0:24.2 | And then I'm going to tell you what the strategy is and how you can set about deploying |
| 0:27.8 | it yourself. |
| 0:29.2 | So we have people in our community that never see or touch their inventory, yet they've got |
| 0:34.8 | robust, very profitable businesses selling physical product on |

| 1:23.0 | sellers to start. Keep in mind, we've coached between 7 and 10,000 people in e-commerce over the past |
| 1:29.3 | about 19 years. So I've detected some patterns, and one of them is, who should you hire first? |
| 1:35.3 | What kind of person should you hire? Where should you source that person from? So these are details |
| 1:41.0 | that are based on lessons that I've learned observing what works and what doesn't |
| 1:45.9 | work. So when you talk about bringing somebody into your business to start doing some of those |
