We've turned a SKEPTIC with serious concerns into a RAVING FAN who is CRUSHING IT! The backstory: A few months ago I posted in invitation in our large Facebook group inviting ANY SKEPTICS to please step forward. I wanted anyone who had "heard bad things" about being an Amazon reseller. The scarier the stories the better!

I found a volunteer and interviewed him on this show about 9 months ago (link in show...

Some of the most exciting product launch stories in the Amazon seller community have come from our community, but today I'm going to talk you OUT of launching your own product on Amazon!

Silent Sales Machine Radio
A coaching client got on Robin's calendar this week sitting at ~$10,000 a month in sales and feeling stuck. He's an engineer, so the math felt obvious: $50K is just $10K, five times over. Do what's working, five times as much, and you're there. Except that's the trap, and by the end of the call he said he felt like he'd been hit by a two-by-four. In the best way. In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy break down why the playbook that built your foundation is the wrong playbook for your next floor, using a house Brian actually built as the map. Why $50K is a system, not a goal you...
