While the episode promotes a course 'ProvenAmazonCourse.com', the underlying criteria for a 'perfect business' are broadly applicable to any online venture and should be considered seriously.
If you were tasked with coming up with a list of characteristics of the perfect business model, what would you put on that list? For me, I'd include things like low risk, flexibility, transportable (I can put my biz in my pocket and go anywhere), scalable, sellable someday (I want to build an asset), generates multiple opportunities for other income streams, all of the big trends in culture are in my favor (a growing market), a community of other people who are successfully doing the model that I can learn from and grow with, the ability to add family to my business if I choose to... And for many people - The ability to TEST and PROVE the biz model with a very small amount of capital and time (say, $500 or so). What else would you add to your list of perfect business model characteristics? I'm pretty sure we can PROVE that we have found the model that meets all these criteria... and more. It's what we teach in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com "new seller" modules. Let's talk about it.
