Summary

Hi, I'm Rushion McDonald, the host of the weekly Money Making Conversations Master Class show. This show provides interviews and information for everyone. It’s time to stop reading other people’s success stories and start living your own.  Have you ever thought about starting a business? If so, why did – or didn’t – you do it?
Have you ever hired the wrong people and didn’t do a background check? Have you maybe even hired relatives because your family recommended them?
Have you ever hired someone just because they fit into your budget, but they didn’t have the knowledge to do the job correctly? What about starting a business without a budget or going into business with someone you didn’t really know?
Have I hit some nerves here? Maybe I haven’t and some of you think what I’m saying isn’t that big a deal.  Well, I’m here to tell you that it is, and no one knows that better than me. How do I know this? Because I had to graduate from the “School of Hard Knocks” to get where I am today, and I almost lost my business in the process.
What I did not know was that Amazon has long known that businesses and organizations were shopping for office supplies and other goods in bulk on its store. To better serve us, the company launched Amazon Business in 2015. It’s your one-stop shop to simplify buying and you can create a free account today. Businesses and organizations of all sizes—local hair salons, schools, nonprofits, hospitals, global corporations, and government agencies—can open an Amazon Business account. The account is free, and there’s no spending minimum.  I'm here to tell you that running a business takes up a lot of your time. You have orders to place, expenses to track, and people to manage. Sometimes it feels like there are never enough hours in the day. Basically, All I'm saying, is that we can all use some more hours in a day. That’s where Amazon Business comes in. They are truly a time saver, because they offer smart insights to help you make the most of the limited hours you have in a day. Listen up, Amazon Business Analytics is available with your Amazon Business account. It gives you visibility into your organization’s purchase 
history, Amazon Business Analytics helps you identify opportunities to optimize spend and make better purchasing decisions.  Improve visibility into spend Identify purchasing trends by tracking purchases made by individuals and groups within your organization. Optimize spending that uses reports to identify opportunities for 
optimizing spend such as supplier consolidation, bulk purchasing, and tax-exemptions.  It offers Easy reconciliation and the ability to compare order and payment history, invoices received, and payments made with the help of these reconciliation reports. Access to multiple reports can be valuable and you can choose from any one of the available reports such as orders, shipments, returns, refunds, and reconciliation to view and download the information you need. Now that's freeing up some of your time in your day, because Amazon Business handles the heavy lifting, so you can finally focus on growing your business instead of drowning in admin. Listen up from customized recommendations to real-time spend tracking and delivery options tailored to your schedule, they’ve got your back every step of the way.  Why not spend less time sweating the small stuff and more time crushing your goals—or maybe even sneaking in some well-earned vacation time with your friends or family?
