On this "mini-lesson" episode we learn about a farmer and a goat. The farmer buys the same goat twice - and the goat actually costs MORE the second time he buys it! Is the farmer making money or losing money? You decide! Understanding this basic lesson will help you understand the numbers that are vital to your success as a business building warrior!   Show note LINKS:   The farmer/goat discussion...

Today we meet a student who knows what it means to work hard for a living. He's worked many jobs and started (and lost) several businesses, but he's thrilled to have found the stability, flexibility and scalability of having an Amazon business based on the ProvenAmazonCourse.com replens model. He's a 1 1/2 man show (his 9 year old homeschooled daughter helps him out), and he's more than replaced t...

Can you sell an item alongside 125 other sellers and still make a profit? Today's guest is a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student who did just that and sold hundreds of units weekly! In fact she sold about $400K last year at healthy margins! She's also a JimCockrumCoaching.com coaching student who has been in full-time ministry for about 25 years with her husband and also homeschools their kids. Before...

Now that we have 20 years under our belt in the "Ecommerce education" arena, we can speak with a lot of authority about the big traps we've seen unsuspecting entrepreneurs fall into. Avoiding these common traps not only keeps you afloat, it puts more cash in your pocket! The four most common traps are: Using the wrong tools and ignoring trends, taking unnecessary risks, neglecting vital relationsh...

Today's student guest struggled with his private label brand on Amazon initially, and just when he got some momentum, covid struck and he nearly went bankrupt. He's slowly made a comeback though, and his 2022 goals is to sell over $3million in his online businesses! This is a multiple income stream episode that dives deep into several important topics. We think you'll enjoy the transparency, strug...

We've coached 7,000 students over the past 18 years, and we have hundreds of recent success stories among our Amazon seller students. Virtually all of the most recently successful students have a few things in common (besides our ProvenAmazonCourse.com training of course). They ARE NOT looking for "keywords" and they are not looking for "profitable products". This may seem strange, but I explain o...

Today's guest had almost no computer experience and no ecommerce experience before becoming a student of the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course. She's finding more profitable products than she can keep up with using our strategies! She's built a beautiful business and is on track to do between $500,000-$600,000 in sales this year with a small team. She works about 5-6 hours daily because she wants to,...

Today we meet a married couple who have an incredible Amazon business story! They started out as ProvenAmazonCourse.com students and now our coaching team has grown with both of them now on board as coaches! They have a fully outsourced Amazon business model - meaning they aren't doing any packing or shopping themselves. It's pretty incredible. Better yet, they have a system that they've devised (...

Imagine if there was a college that paid you to learn a valuable skill that was in high demand and would pay you well, and at the end of the course you were assigned someone who did all the work for you. Your job? Manage the business. Today's episode discusses the most important questions you can ask yourself about launching and growing a business including the vital question: "What am I going to...

Today's guest has been married for 30 years, has two adult children and she loves her Amazon business! She's a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student and also a big fan of this podcast as well! Last month (the short month of Feb 2022), she sold $27K at a very healthy net margin and she's on a nice upward trajectory working very part-time on her business. She shares several great tips and strategies as wel...

Today's guest has built a successful private label brand on Amazon, but it's a seasonal item that doesn't give him the reliable, year round income that he'd like to see. He wants the stability of having a replens business as well. He's a JimCockrumCoaching.com student with an impressive business, but we are helping him scale and diversify his income with our proven system. His goal is to be full-t...

Let's compare getting a college degree to getting an ecommerce education and launching a business online. Which one gives you a flexible lifestyle? Which one gives you a shot at financial independence? Which one is trending towards more relevant? I won't answer these questions for you, but I will make some observations so you can hopefully answer these questions with a new perspective in mind. Did...

Let's imagine and discuss the perfect "inflation proof" business model. A model that is flexible enough and stable enough to weather the storm of economic instability. Here's the question I'll tackle today - Is the Amazon "replens" model as close to a "perfect business" as you can find for a period of high inflation? There are many reasons to think so - let's talk about it! Check out this episode...

Today's guest is a true multiple income stream warrior, but she says her foundation is the same Amazon replens model that we've taught to so many of our students. Just like you've heard on dozens of recent episodes of this podcast, the strategies of the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course simply work and today's guest is more proof! Our guest today started with ZERO working capital as a single mom, so s...

Do you want yet another reason to love the Amazon Replens model that is creating the dozens of recent success stories that you've been hearing on this podcast? The ProvenAmazonCourse.com is cranking out successful Amazon seller stories faster than any other model you've ever seen for one reason - it works and we have the formula dialed in! Consider the concept of "loss leaders" and "dead inventory...

Today's guest is another JimCockrumCoaching.com success story! Michael is only a few days away from leaving his full-time public school teaching career behind as he and his wife are now earning far more from their online business than they ever could have with his teaching career. For a guy with absolutely no prior business experience, he's done very well as a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student! He's...

We have overwhelming evidence that suggest to us that the greatest opportunity online is the Amazon FBA model. Specifically, we have 100's of recent success stories from our students of the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course.   Many of those success story interviews can be found right on this podcast if you scroll back a few weeks or months there are dozens of recent examples. No other podcast in ecomm...

Today we visit a single mom who is using the Amazon Replens model to fully pay the bills as she works very flexible hours (just a few per day) and homeschools her six kids aged 13-6. She's an amazing leader in our community who has created some of the content in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course as well. She shares how she finds replens so easily, her system for automating the process and how she'...

We are NOT fans of dropshipping models in this community for very good reason. For every success story you'll hear, you'll hear 100 disaster stories. I'm convinced that the ONLY people who are truly excited about the model (at scale) are those who sell a course about it.   Today I discuss what dropshipping is, the only RIGHT way to do it, and perhaps best of all, a model that we are proving over a...

A full-time public school teacher is today's guest. Several months ago he was new to the Amazon selling strategies that we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course, so he jumped into our coaching program and got to work. Today we'll hear his story of how he started just a few months ago and is now seeing $10K per month in sales and climbing steadily! He has a virtual assistant who sends him seve...

Amy has a full-time job and three kids, but she manages to work about 10 hours per week on her Amazon business where she earns well over $100/hr net profit with the replens strategy that we teach. Her business started growing steadily very soon after she invested in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course and joined our coaching program. She hired a VA from our training service (a virtual assistant) who...

In this five minute episode I share how to have a seven figure, highly profitable (25-30% net) Amazon business without any expensive tools or software. Is that even possible? Let's answer that question now! As evidence I reference a presentation from Dec 2021 at our virtual event by a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student from our community named Oscar Mutumbo. He uses ONLY the inexpensive tool called "K...

Often, sellers on Amazon report that they find a great product, start selling it and before long there are competitors driving down the price. It's the nature of all businesses actually, but there's a little used and very creative solution we've made available for our community!  It's the ProvenBrandBuilding.com strategy. Not only can you launch a great ASIN on Amazon, you can protect it from comp...

Today we visit one of the married couples who happen to be two of our JimCockrumCoaching.com coaches. They've just finished their first full year with the husband Adam being home after leaving his IT career behind. They work their Amazon Replens business (as taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course) and even employ a couple of their homeschooled kids and their homeschooled friends. They are abo...

In this episode, Jimmy Smith talks through a recent success story from yet another ProvenAmazonCourse.com student! Pablo has an amazing story of persistence that took a couple years of struggling with expensive courses and private label dead ends until he found the Replens Arbitrage model! In his first partial year of doing Replens, he sold just over $77,000 in revenue and in his first full year o...
