This episode features Lina Kotarski, a successful Amazon seller who, alongside her husband, built a thriving Amazon business to generate a third income while raising a family and working full-time jobs. The discussion highlights their journey from retail arbitrage to online arbitrage, emphasizing practical strategies for scaling an Amazon business efficiently through smart sourcing and outsourcing fulfillment.
Key takeaways
Transition from retail arbitrage (RA) to online arbitrage (OA) to significantly scale your Amazon business and reduce manual labor, especially when balancing other commitments.
Utilize a prep center to outsource packing and shipping, freeing up time for sourcing and business expansion without necessarily impacting net margins due to sales tax offsets.
Master a simple, powerful tool like Keepa for product research and sourcing on Amazon instead of relying on multiple complex and expensive tools.
Focus on going "wide" with your product catalog, expanding into various categories to diversify and grow your Amazon store.
Consider coaching early in your Amazon selling journey to accelerate learning and strategic decision-making, even if it's just to optimize existing arbitrage efforts.
Today's new podcast episode is a conversation with a ProvenAmazonCourse.com student who has been in our community for several years. She and her husband still work full-time jobs, but they've built a beautiful business on Amazon as sellers and they are quite proud of their achievements! They do it all while squeezing it into the cracks of their busy lives with two young kids. They shop for inventory ONLY online using "OA" strategies (as taught in the PAC course and learned from the coach they had on our team). One of my favorite parts of her story is the fact that she uses ONLY KEEPA and ONLY a couple of the the strategies from our training - and has done it for YEARS! We are excited to welcome Lina (our guest today) onto our team as a coach as well!
