Episode description

We love to see ProvenAmazonCourse.com students get off to a fast start with success early in their journey! Today's guest is a new PAC and coaching student who took action and already is seeing tremendous results. Thanks to the training he received, he recently jumped on a listing on Amazon with 200+ other sellers and sold a TON of product (2,400 units). He sourced them from local Target stores (they cleared their inventory from storage for him). The best part - he was the HIGHEST PRICED SELLER of all 200+ sellers!! He was able to do this because he understands one of the core lessons from the PAC/replens training which is to look for UNDERSERVED shelf space at Amazon. Once you grasp that concept, there's opportunity everywhere.
