We've heard from many podcast listeners who said they are impressed with the numerous "big success story" episodes of our podcast, but they'd like to also hear from newer sellers who are just getting started. We've been doing a few shows lately that feel more like "new seller encouragement discussion".   Today we meet a single mom who is only a few weeks into her Amazon selling journey, but she's got great momentum and a determined heart! You can't help but root for her!   She's found several profitable REPLENS (based on the ProvenAmazonCourse.com system), but she's far from where she'd like to be so we talk it all over. We discuss the reality of selling books on Amazon, how to source profitable REPLENS "off the beaten path", using KEEPA the right way to avoid problematic brands and much more.   Today's guest: Amanda Wykes   Today's episode is sponsored by RevSeller - the business tool many of our coaches and students use to analyze and organize business data! https://provenamazoncourse.com/revseller   Watch the interview on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/qhaunX2TJ5Y   Show note LINKS:   JimCockrumCoaching.com - Get a free session with a business consultant on our team at 1-800-994-1792 / 1-801-693-1688 or TEXT US at 385-284-7701 (US & Canada only for Text)  ALL of our coaches are running very successful businesses of their own based on the models we teach here!
