Is it good advice or possibly dangerous advice to tell someone to "follow your passions"?

Is it better to "pursue profits" instead of "following your passions"?

Are there business models that you can become passionate about once you see the happy customers you've served well all lining up to say "thank you"?

Which comes first, FEELING GOOD or TAKING ACTION?

All these topics are important for a business building warrior, and I'd venture to say that nearly 100% of the scores of successful students in our ProvenAmazonCourse.com community have a great deal of clarity on this topic!

"Extraordinary success is sequential not simultaneous." Gary Keller

That's the theme on today's podcast episode.

Maybe you're asking...

We've helped 1,000s of students find their way into profitable businesses through the ProvenAmazonCourse.com and other training opportunities, and based on that 20+ years of experience we can tell you that many people are caught in perpetual "study mode" instead of "take action" mode. What actions should you take NOW though in order to build a great future online?

We'll tell you EXACTLY what is next for you - and it's nowhere near as difficult or expensive as you might be imagining!

Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: How can I know if a small retail store is "safe" for sourcing as a reseller on Amazon?

On average, every Amazon seller is owed between 1-3% of ALL SALES back from Amazon in lost reimbursements.

These are funds that most sellers will never collected UNLESS they are constantly staying on top of all owed reimbursements from loss, damage, misplaced etc. inventory at Amazon FBA.

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a company that charged you NOTHING to find all those reimbursements and get you the cash you're owed?

Better yet, what if you could try them out and never pay them a penny out of pocket? (They only get paid a small cut when they find your money!)

GETIDA is that service - and if you use this link to sign up FOR FREE:

Our newer ProvenAmazonCourse.com and coaching students often ask questions like, “Where can I find a source that allows me to sell items for a profit on Amazon?”

Typically these students are looking at the current or average recent buy box price on Amazon or the featured price and then setting about trying to find a "cheaper source".

While there's some potential in that model, there's far lower hanging fruit for you to explore and that's the topic of today's new podcast episode.

Today we turn the sourcing question upside down and ask this question instead:

“Now that I know my cost of acquiring this item, what price will I need to sell this item for on Amazon in order to make a profit?"

Next ask...

"Are there ASINs that make my profitable price a reasonable goal?"

Once you know how to look, the answer will be a resounding "YES" far more often that you might suspect!
