Summary
In our community of Amazon sellers who are using provenamazoncourse.com strategies, we are seeing more and more successful sellers going entirely HANDS FREE - meaning they don't source products, they don't ship products and they don't touch box tape.
How is this possible when selling physical products? That's what we discuss on today's podcast episode!
It's not about drop shipping (please don't do that -I explain why), and it's not some "trick". It's a matter of using the proper resources as you scale - and I'd love to map it out for you.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Silent Sales Machine Radio Business Building Warrior. This is your host, Jim, and I'm going to talk today about building a hands-free business selling physical products online. |
| 0:15.8 | That's right, a hands-free business selling physical products. Typically when you think of selling physical goods, |
| 0:22.3 | stuff that has to go in a box and get shipped to a customer, you're thinking, okay, I'm going to be |
| 0:25.8 | touching boxes and box tape and packing materials and printing labels. I'm going to have to do all that |
| 0:31.5 | work. That sounds like a lot of work. I'd rather build a business model that doesn't require me to do |
| 0:35.7 | those things. Now, I'm not afraid of hard work, |
| 0:38.5 | and you shouldn't be either. And here's a little news flash for you if you weren't aware |
| 0:42.8 | that there's no such thing as a business that doesn't require effort and work and doing things |
| 0:48.9 | that you kind of don't want to do. In fact, one of my mentors says that the key to a successful life, the key to |
| 0:55.6 | success in any venture is being willing to do the things that need to be done when they need to be |
| 1:00.1 | done. And anything worth doing is going to have a list of stuff that needs done, when it needs to be |
| 1:05.5 | done, and you may not like doing that work. That's just the way business works. So if you haven't |
| 1:10.7 | figured that out yet, |
| 1:12.3 | that probably means you're still chasing around the shiny objects. You've bounced from one |
| 1:16.2 | thing to another, maybe for the past several months or years, nothing's really worked yet. |
| 1:20.7 | This is me trying to pull you out of that. Every business takes work. But just because you're |
| 1:26.1 | selling physical products doesn't mean you have to be |
| 1:28.5 | touching physical products, putting tape on boxes, doing that work. We're not afraid of that work, |
| 1:34.1 | but you don't have to do it yourself. Now when you're starting off, maybe you do. And that's |
| 1:38.8 | fine for a season, for a period of time. I call that period during the business launch and startup, a period of intense |
| 1:46.3 | focused effort. Everything worth doing has an uncomfortable period of intense focused effort |
| 1:52.6 | where it just isn't as fun as you're hoping it will be someday. Writing a bike is like that. |
