Blog postRecently there have been a lot of courses launching claiming to teach success selling on Amazon. Some of these courses are getting the mega-launch treatment attracting multiple “big hitter” affiliates seeking the fat 50% commissions and contest winnings on the very high priced courses. As you might suspect, these types of “endorsements” aren’t always based on integrity. It’s important you know the qualifications and intentions of the person doing the endorsing when you encou3 years ago Read more

Blog postA large Japanese publishing firm contacted me a few months ago and asked to pay me for publishing rights to my Silent Sales Machine book. It was a can’t lose proposal! They paid me $7500 up front, and a percentage of all sales going forward!
They surprised me yesterday when I opened a box from Japan and there was a copy of my book…in Japanese! (I wasn’t expecting them to send me copies for some reason.)
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for helping this book become an int3 years ago Read more -

This temporary “pause” of FBA services is reported to have been applied only to SOME new sellers & is seemingly only being applied randomly at that. Only SOME new sellers on Amazon attem4 years ago Read more -
Blog postIf you need to get to a destination, would you rather move at 5mph, 50mph or 500mph? (or Kilometers per hour for our non-US friends!)
