#1166: Is it really true that virtually EVERY ASIN is profitable for smart Amazon sellers? Here's why we say YES!
Silent Sales Machine Radio
AI is here and it's changing Amazon reselling fast by making it possible to know which products you should be selling at any given time! You've heard us talking a lot lately about the NEW way to do Amazon reselling that allows you to track not just dozens or hundreds of products for purchase timing and profitability, but hundreds or even tens of thousands or more products (ASINs). Today we meet with the creator of software that has revolutionized and injected AI into the strategy of 100s of Amazon resellers, forever changing the way they are approaching Amazon selling. We talk...

#1165: Reading between the Keepa lines: What the chart isn't showing you
Silent Sales Machine Radio
Three coaching calls in one week. Three different sellers. Same problem - they were all passing on ASINs because of what Keepa wasn't showing them. In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy unpack the blind spots hiding in plain sight on every Keepa chart: the "dead" listing that's actually just chronically out of stock, the buy box price that changes depending on which region you're standing in, and the sales that happen at prices Keepa never even logs. The old signals, rank drops, offer counts, the national buy box, trained an entire generation of resellers to read the chart one way. Amazon...

#1163: How even new resellers can quickly find 100s of ungated brands to sell on Amazon
Silent Sales Machine Radio
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.

#1162: The Amazon reseller's secret edge
Silent Sales Machine Radio
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...

#1160: Why Would Anyone Pay $40 on Amazon for a $20 Walmart Item?
Silent Sales Machine Radio
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...

#1157: Pick your hard
Silent Sales Machine Radio
A coaching client messaged us this week ready to abandon his method. A few bad matches, a couple wrong orders, and a new surcharge from Amazon and suddenly the grass looks greener everywhere else. We've seen this movie before. In this episode, we do the math on Amazon's new 3.5% FBA surcharge, show you the free lever most sellers ignore, and talk about why the people who win this game aren't the ones who found the perfect strategy, they're the ones who stopped restarting the clock.
