Summary
Today I spend a few minutes diving into these questions:
Is success on Amazon Random?
Are there any factors that distinguish those who succeed from those who fail in our Amazon seller community?
What other factors are involved in determining who wins and who loses in the Amazon selling game?
If you are considering launching a business from home online, I invite you to answer the questions presented in this episode as honestly as you can.
I'd love to hear from you if you have a different take than I do on this topic!
Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: How secure should we feel with Amazon's new friendly 72 hour warning prior to seller suspensions? Does this mean we can take bigger risks?

| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior, welcome to another episode of silent sales machine radio. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm your host, Jim Cockram. |
| 0:09.1 | And if you're new around here, thanks for hanging out with me. |
| 0:12.9 | This is one of the most popular podcasts in all of e-commerce, not because of me, but because I represent a community of online sellers |
| 0:25.0 | who are building incredible businesses, and we tell their stories all the time around here. |
| 0:29.5 | Hundreds of episodes going back for years, dozens of recent examples of people who are |
| 0:35.1 | applying the principles we teach around here. |
| 0:36.8 | We interview them, |
| 0:37.6 | we talk to them, we dig into their stories. And that's what makes this show so incredibly |

| 1:18.1 | or Amazon or legal limitations or taxation or the recession or whatever it is, |
| 1:31.8 | we're blaming of everything except looking internally and saying, |
| 1:32.7 | what is it about me? |
| 1:35.9 | And here's the premise today with that being said, |
| 1:38.2 | because I kind of came out of the gate and beat you up a little bit. |
| 1:39.5 | Let me just lay this premise there, |
