#1146: Apparently Amazon reselling is getting popular among credit card POINTS seekers!

"I run out of inventory money WAY before I run out of great products I can sell" - a quote from our guest today.   On this episode we talk to another ProvenAmazonCourse.com student who is VERY part time, but it's not just the profits from his Amazon business that he's enjoying - he also loves all the credit card points he's collecting! As a matter of fact, the opportunity to maximize the use of points was the driving reason he even got into Amazon selling! His goal was to merely break even and enjoy all the points, but he's raking in nice profits as well!   With a very part-time effort he's found 114,000 viable products to load into 3PMercury and he says he has "pages and pages" of great products he can buy at any given time.   This is yet another coaching student success story as well!

Regardless of if you live inside or outside of the U.S., it's irrelevant when it comes to building a great Amazon reselling business on Amazon(.com), and today's guest is just another example that proves it!

  If you've ever run out of your best-selling products faster than you can restock them, wondered what ROI you should actually be targeting, or watched your buy box disappear and immediately reached for the repricer - this episode is for you.   Brian and Robin unpack one of the most misunderstood realities in Amazon selling: three questions that look completely different on the surface are actually the same question wearing different masks. And the answer to all three is almost always the same word. Price.   In this episode you'll learn: Why running out of stock is a pricing problem, not a sourcing problem What ROI floor you should be targeting, and why it connects directly to your velocity What actually causes a buy box to disappear (hint: it's not your price) Why panic pricing hands your profit directly to the seller who held their number How to read a suppressed buy box for what it actually is - a delivery signal, not a pricing signal    Brian drops the line that ties it all together: "Price is the lever. It controls your velocity, your ROI, your exposure to panic, and whether you hold or fold when the buy box disappears."   And they close with a Warren Buffett quote that hits differently when you're watching your repricer make decisions it doesn't have the information to make.   This one is worth a second listen.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "What is the inform act and how scary is it?

Why do so many sellers stay stuck even after watching courses, reading books, and buying tools?   In this Coach's Corner episode, Brian and Robin share a powerful story about the Wright Brothers and Samuel Langley. One had funding, prestige, and a perfect plan. The other simply kept testing. Only one of them flew.   That story opens a conversation about a common trap Amazon sellers fall into. Over-planning. Endless research. Waiting for the perfect moment to start. Brian and Robin break down a simple three-question filter that helps you cut through the noise and focus on the next right move in your business.   You'll learn: • Why planning too far ahead keeps sellers stuck • How to tell the difference between real progress and "feeling busy" • The simple Now vs. Later filter that keeps you focused • Why boring systems usually mean your business is working • The one action challenge you should complete this week   If you feel overwhelmed by tools, courses, or endless advice, this episode will help you reset and focus on what actually builds a business. Because the antidote to confusion isn't more information.   It's action.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If I don't have Jeff's team on retainer, can they still help me? (Answer: YES!)"
