Summary
Today's guest is a coaching student and provenamazoncourse.com student who has built a robust multiple five figure per month REPLENS business selling on Amazon.com (US).
He's doubled his business this year over last year and he has big goals for the future.
He has a team of virtual assistants (he calls them teammates) who are filling all the vital roles of his business and you even get to briefly meet a few of them on today's episode (although we had some audio issue so we had to edit that portion a bit).
He's using a US based prep center to store and ship his inventory and he even does a significant amount of FBM (merchant fulfill) without ever seeing or touching his inventory!
Our guest says his top priority is to "make my role unnecessary" - and he's well on his way to doing it!

| 0:00.0 | Hey, business building warrior, welcome to Silent Sales Machine Radio. This is an interview episode today. |
| 0:08.0 | If you're new around here, most of our episodes feature interviews with the students of the |
| 0:13.5 | proven Amazon course, which is the premier Amazon seller training in the e-commerce universe. |
| 0:20.4 | We've been teaching people how to build beautiful |
| 0:22.6 | businesses online for over 20 years now. We've been talking a lot about Amazon the past 12, 13 years, |
| 0:29.5 | and that is the course that helps thousands of students around the world continue to grow |
| 0:35.5 | on the biggest e-commerce platform in the world. |
| 0:38.6 | Half of all transactions in the United States online every day, approximately, are happening |
| 0:43.2 | on one platform, Amazon. And we have international students in our community who sell in the |
| 0:50.6 | U.S. They live outside the U.S. They sell in the U.S. on Amazon.com without ever seeing or |
| 0:56.9 | touching their inventory based on the systems that we've built here that accommodate that. Today, |
| 1:01.9 | we're going to meet someone who's doing just that. The most recent month, they did $30,000 |
| 1:06.2 | in sales on Amazon.com while living in Dubai. Am Omar lives in Dubai. How incredible is that? |
| 1:14.3 | He's got a team of what he calls partners. He doesn't call them virtual assistance. |
| 1:20.6 | That's a term that we use frequently around here, but he calls them teammates. They're on |
| 1:23.6 | his team. These are equals. His partners in this business. And they live in Pakistan. |
| 1:30.2 | They live in the Philippines. We even have a brief segment towards the middle of the show today where we |
| 1:34.3 | bring them on to the Zoom and briefly meet each of them for a couple moments, describing what it is they do on the team. |
| 1:41.2 | But basically, they're helping run every aspect of this business |
| 1:44.9 | because, as you're about to see, Omar only has a few minutes a day, five to 10 hours a week, |
| 1:51.5 | he shares with us today to commit to this business. So imagine a business selling $30,000 a month. |
| 1:57.2 | You're able to work at a few hours a day at best, a couple hours a day, and it's |
