Before we start, I wanted to share a tip that helps me accomplish as much as I can each day to move my business forward.  Before I go to sleep I make a list of three things I will accomplish the next day and I attempt to get through all three.  I suggest you do the same and let me know how well it works for you.I’ve been using Feedback Genius for some time as it works to automate seller feedback, and handle product reviews for my Amazon business.  I believe anybody who uses a tool like this will do better in their business.  I’m going to explore a new tool, Salesbacker which does the same types of things, but also provides stats on how well your emails are performing over time.  I’ll be checking it out and may switch if it performs well. The next tool I discuss is actually many tools in one.  Amazoworks, only has a few tools ready now, but additional ones are coming and will do every...

I’m at an Amazon Conference along with about 800 other people.  Today I’ll take a look at a few things all the sellers are buzzing about here.  There is another conference in early August that I’ll be here for.  It’s a sourcing show and a good place to get ideas for merchandise, to meet people and do some wholesale sourcing.  You can find out more about it at asdonline.com (http://www.asdonline.com/)One topic of discussion here is cash flow.  The cash flow problems associated with growing quickly can be crushing. It’s sometimes hard to be able to reorder product as you wait for the money on your sales to come in.  Banks don’t generally lend large sums of money to at home businesses and credit cards can pose some difficulties. I solved this problem by using Kabbage (https://www.kabbage.com/).  They are able to analyze your bank transactions and business accounts very quickly and pre-approve you on the spot.  They will then debit your account mo...

I always planned to be the CEO of a company.  I was very driven in law school.  I then went into a video game startup because it was one of my passions and it worked out quite nicely.  Dancing is another passion of mine and I built a brand around products relating to that.  Now I am hooked on selling on Amazon and it has worked out so very well.  Where you find the intersection between passion and products that make sense to create because they are in demand, you will find success on Amazon.If you find you’re stuck in getting that first product on Amazon, here are some tips that I explain: * Think of your first product as your training wheels product. * For your first product select something cheap and light. * Don’t know what to sell?  Start with your passion and the products you use. * Find out what products are already selling by going to the...

I want to take you along on my trip down the rabbit hole and give you some key points about what I’ve done today.First, an important reminder that my free online sellers bootcamp is coming up on July 22.  It’s time to sign up for the bootcamp which will give you an overview of what it takes to become an FBA Amazon private label seller.I am putting out new products on a steady basis and here’s a quick summary of what I accomplished just today: * Got a product out starting with a bare bones listing to generate things for a shipper to use and my product arrived at Amazon * Contacted people for professional pictures of my product * Set up a page listing on Amazon - using search terms and keyword analysis, I developed and submitted a two thousand word description * Created coupon codes with four different price points for four different groups of people * Got a super URL through Amztr...
