Today we meet a business building duo with an impressive Amazon business and they happen to also be a brother and sister team. The backbone of their business is over $1million in sales of primarily "hard to find" grocery items that are selling very well for them on Amazon. They don't introduce NEW products into Amazon, instead they find products that are already selling well (learned with the REPLEN strategy that we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse that pops up so often in our success stories on this show). They are also using creative bundle strategies such as the ones we are rolling out soon in our ProvenBrandBuilding.com course. They recently became coaching students as well. You'll hear them share about the benefits and challenges of working with family as well as several specific tips and tools that they've found helpful in their business building journey. You'll enjoy spending time with this enthusiastic and accomplished team! Today's guest John and Lisa (last names withheld upon request) Check out this episode sponsor - Payoneer.com.
