You meet people who want freedom. Then you meet someone who refuses a boss so much he reverse-engineers his whole life. After Derek left the Army, he started Amazon FBA with nothing but podcasts, stubborn grit, and a few painful months of trying to "make a penny per ASIN." In this talk, we walk you through his jump from Excel chaos to 45,460 ASINs stored, his real replens, and a system that runs while he sleeps. You'll hear how he fights through IP blocks, bad prep centers, order cancellations, and the mental weight of slow progress. If you ever wondered what happens when someone treats sourcing like a gym routine, delayed gratification like a religion, and three in the morning like normal business hours, this one shows you.
