#1015: In 23 years of full-time ecommerce I've never seen anything like what I'm seeing on Amazon right now.
I've been in e-commerce for nearly a quarter Century. That makes me sound pretty old doesn't it? It's the only income I've earned in that time. I tried real estate, MLM, affiliate marketing, etc before I got into selling physical products about 20 years ago. It's been my "go to" model for 20 years now and as of right now, the future has literally NEVER looked brighter for the model we do and teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com to all new students. I've never seen anything that : > is this consistent > is so newbie friendly > offers protective of your initial capital > has a bright stable forecast from every angle > has a ridiculously low cost of entry ...I could go on. That's why we teach it! I've taught it to friends and families at my church. I've shown it to aunts, business friends and guys I work out with - this thing works - We have 100s of success story interviews right on this podcast! In today's episode I break it down for you and explain why it is that I feel as strongly as I ever have that if you've been waiting for the right time to get started, there has never been more reasons than there are right now to jump in.

#1013: It's "covid 2.0" for resellers - and that's a good thing! Also - the big reasons why brand new sellers have a big advantage suddenly.
Is right now possibly the greatest time in e-commerce history to become a reseller on Amazon? I think it just might be - and I explain why on today's episode. Also - we are entering Covid 2.0 (and I'm not talking about the disease). I'm talking about the BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY. The last time we saw conditions like what's about to happen we saw THOUSANDS of sellers make a killing on Amazon as resellers - and the conditions are the same again now! I'll explain what I mean on this episode. Stick around for the last few minutes of the episode today to hear an update about "The System". The System (aka 3PMercury found at SilentJim.com/thesystem) is the software that completely automated Khang’s $3 million replens business with 10,000 ASINs while requiring only a team of only 2 people! Hundreds of users are now using The System to successfully automate their ProvenAmazonCourse.com REPLENS businesses - and you can as well!

#1012: The thrill of the chase: Why replens aren’t the whole story
In this Coaches Corner episode of Silent Sales Machine Radio, Brian and Robin Joy unpack a surprisingly common challenge among resellers: the obsession with sourcing new ASINs over building sustainable, replenishable inventory. Through humorous anecdotes, practical coaching insights, and relatable metaphors, they explore the psychology behind the "thrill of the chase" and how to shift focus toward long-term e-commerce success. Whether you're stuck in the cycle of constant test buys or struggling to find "profitable" ASINs, this episode delivers a fresh perspective: it’s not about perfection—it’s about progress. Learn how building a robust viable ASIN database can be your most powerful strategy, why testing trumps guessing, and how to play the long game without burnout. Highlights include: The difference between viable, testable, and replenishable ASINs Why your sourcing mindset matters more than your tools How to use Keepa data and sales cycles to your advantage The power of “shopping the back of the list” Why success in e-commerce is truly a numbers game Don’t just chase the next shiny ASIN—build your base, trust the process, and test more! Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If I've sold a brand for a long time, can Amazon re-gate me? How can I avoid this risk?"
