| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior. This is Jim with another episode of Silent Sales Machine Radio. |
| 0:07.1 | Thanks for being a listener. If you're new around here, maybe this is one of your first episodes. |
| 0:12.1 | After you've listened to this episode, I know what you're going to be thinking. I'm going to make a prediction. |
| 0:16.0 | You're going to think, wow, that was pretty amazing. What a great interview. I wonder if there's any more of those. |
| 0:39.3 | Absolutely there are. We've got over 550 episodes at silentjim.com. Hundreds of them are recent conversations with students of our flagship Amazon training course. You can find it at this website. Proven AmazonCourse.com. Everything we're going to talk about today is contained in the training modules inside of |
| 0:43.8 | proven amazon course.com. |
| 0:46.1 | My guest today is Marcell, first name only by request. |
| 0:51.3 | There is a video to go with this episode as well, though, and she's been on quite a journey. |
| 0:56.4 | She's built an incredible business. Her most recent month, as I'm recording this, is December of |
| 1:01.9 | 2022, where she talks about heading towards hitting $20,000 in sales for the month, which is fantastic. |
| 1:09.7 | We're very proud of her for that. It's been quite a journey |
| 1:12.3 | getting to this point. She made some pretty big mistakes early on in her e-commerce journey by jumping |
| 1:17.3 | into private label training. She dumped way too much money into it. You've heard this story. If you've |
| 1:22.2 | listened to several podcast episodes, you've heard this story many times before from our students |
| 1:26.1 | and guests. They started |
| 1:27.6 | off trying to build a private label. They realized it was a dead end. By the way, we've been |
| 1:32.7 | shouting that from the mountaintops for years around here. New sellers should never start out by |
| 1:38.9 | attempting to launch a new product, a new brand, a private label on Amazon. If you're new to Amazon or new to |
| 1:46.2 | e-commerce, especially, never try to do that. Well, she learned the hard way. Then she found this |
| 1:50.0 | community and then her business started to take off with the model that we teach to virtually all |
| 1:54.3 | of our new sellers around here. That, of course, is the replins model. And we teach all the |
