New Amazon resellers often report that they struggle to find brands and products that they are eligible (ungated) to sell when they first get started as a new reseller on Amazon.

MSP crawls the accounts of other Amazon sellers looking for qualified, ungated products and builds a constantly monitored catalog that over time alerts you as any gated brands/products become ungated...

You're doing the work. You're following the playbook from the videos, the socials, the group platforms. And something still isn't clicking. Here's what nobody's telling you: a lot of that advice was accurate 5 or 10 years ago. Some of it still is. Some of it isn't. And nobody's sorting it out for you. In the kickoff to a four-part Coach's Corner series, Brian and Robin Joy lay out the four shifts Amazon quietly built into the platform while the older content kept aging in place. None of them are hacks. All of them are visible to anyone paying attention. Why the rank-drop...

Some of the smartest people Robin Joy coaches still can't pull the trigger. They're stuck in saver mode when the business needs them in builder mode. Brian and Robin Joy unpack the mindset shift that separates the sellers who get going from the ones who keep studying. Why customers happily pay more on Amazon. Why Brian wouldn't drive to Walmart to save money but goes all day to make money. And the math behind the catalog: out of 1.4 billion ASINs, the sweet spot is the 2.4 million selling 50 to 199 units a month. That's the corner big corporations can't be bothered with. That's where we...

Fear doesn't show up in a cape. He shows up in a cardigan, sits down at your kitchen table with a spreadsheet, and asks if you've run the downside scenario. In this Coach's Corner, Brian and Robin Joy tell the story of the 11 years they spent "being fine" after a real estate crash, the hemorrhagic stroke that hit Robin weeks after they launched their Amazon business, and the moment they realized that if that didn't stop them, nothing would. Then they turn it into something you can use. Why almost every seller hits a cash crunch between week seven and week twelve. Why "as much as...
info_outlineYou’ve heard us say for several months now that Amazon reselling is getting simpler by the day because of the technology and strategies we are deploying for our students.
Another major breakthrough has just happened and it’s more true or now than it has ever been. Amazon reselling is getting simpler.
Today we spend time with the founder of 3PMercury discussing the latest automations that are making the lives of Amazon sellers so much easier with so much more opportunity emerging for all of us literally daily!
The latest news...
New technology is allowing sellers to automatically monitor the inventory levels of their suppliers, as well as the REAL TIME COSTS OF REORDERING more inventory. Example, if an item that used to cost $7 at Walmart now costs only $6 (or goes up to say, $9), 3PMercury knows and makes repurchase suggestions based on real time inventory cost updates! This means that 3P mercury software can now recommend with more confidence than ever the lowest hanging fruit opportunities in your product catalogue!
Let's spend time today with the founder of 3Pmercury and learn more about the latest automations - also, be sure to join us March 5th for a webinar demonstration at 3Pmercury.com/webinar (recording will be posted on that page as well).
