Summary
In this episode of Silent Sales Machine Radio, Brian and Robin Joy dive into the key strategies for scaling your Amazon FBA business. They tackle a common question from coaching clients: How do I grow from $2,000 to five figures per month?
The answer isn’t as simple as just doing more—it’s about strategic scaling, efficiency, and smart sourcing.
They discuss:
- The power of incremental growth and sustainable scaling
- Why small, low-profit items can be the MVP of your business
- How efficiencies in sourcing, prepping, and shipping can multiply your results
- The importance of planning, taking action, and staying committed
If you’re ready to take your FBA business to the next level, this episode is packed with practical insights to help you get there.
Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "Am I big enough of a seller to justifying putting a policy/legal expert on a monthly retainer? If you are selling online at all, this small investment is likely justified!"

| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Silent Sales Machine Radio. We are your co-host. I'm Brian. And I'm Robert Joy. And this is Coach's Corner. Hi, everybody. Hey, how's it going, Robin? It's going great for me. Robert Joy. Sorry. It's okay. Stage name. How's it going for you, Brian? It's going really well. I appreciate that you send me, or you copy me, I should say, |
| 0:23.5 | on some replies that you have for some of your coaching clients. And one of them came through |
| 0:28.9 | this last week, and it was, I thought, a great topic for us to discuss here. And it was someone |
| 0:35.0 | that we've been working with for a few months, and they're like, hey, |
| 0:39.0 | do you mind if I take the question? And I'm going to give you the answer. |
| 0:42.0 | Or I'm going to let you do the answer. They're like, hey, I'm doing like $2,000 a month, right? |
| 0:47.3 | But I want to get into five figures. What do I need to do to make this happen? Well, I mean, it seems a little simplified, but basically my answer was |
| 0:56.2 | you got to do five times as much as what you're already doing. If what you're doing gets you |
| 1:00.7 | 2,000 and you want 10,000, five exit. And that sounds simpler than it is. I mean, sounds easier than it |
| 1:09.2 | is. I think it is simple. Yeah. But it's not easy. |
| 1:13.6 | You already feel like you're doing everything you can to get that $2,000 a month or wherever |
| 1:18.8 | you happen to be. You already feel like you're fitting it in as best you can, but it's not |
| 1:25.2 | getting you where you want it to be. So now you have to make a decision. |
| 1:29.1 | Am I willing to keep pushing to push a little harder? |
| 1:32.5 | Now you don't have to do five times as much tomorrow. |
| 1:35.9 | That was one of the things that I wanted to emphasize to this client. |
| 1:39.7 | Five times as much tomorrow is never going to work. |
| 1:42.1 | It's never going to last. |
| 1:43.2 | Right. |
| 1:43.4 | I can do five times as much this weekend, but I'm not going to have weekends like that every weekend. At least we don't. |
| 1:49.6 | Go to the gym for 10 minutes and then tomorrow I'll start going for 50. |
| 1:53.1 | Yeah. It doesn't really work that way. So you've got to get a plan. How can I build up to five times as much in this situation? So this client and I are going to |
