039: Scanning, Thrifting, Sourcing & Private Labeling (Using Fulfilled by Amazon FBA Seller Dropshipping)

Robert Plank 0:01 The Robert Plank Show, Episode 39 scanning, thrifting, sourcing and private labeling, using Amazon, FBA, seller, drop shipping.

Robert Plank 0:19 Welcome back to the Robert Plank Show. I'm your host. Robert Plank. We talk about making money in this program. We talk about membership sites, webinars, building a list, sending emails, creating information products, writing sales letters, selling software, all that kind of cool stuff that's making money online thing. And today's episode is a little different. It's about using a site called amazon.com to make your money. Because usually, I mean, the way that I usually make money is I create my website. I think of a product to sell. I give it a name. I put my own personal name on it. I have to build my own list. I have to send out emails from myself. And some people don't want to wait that long, or some people just want to have this extra stream of income where they don't have to wait as long, where they don't have to put time and effort into it every single day, where even they don't want to put their name on it, they're a little bit afraid. They want to make this anonymous income, basically, and Amazon is the way to do it. If you go to Amazon and you look at stuff like, say, like the top selling kitchen items, or any kind of this novelty As Seen On TV kind of stuff, or I just did a search for ice cube trays. Have you seen these? I'm sure. I'm sure they have it at your target, at your Walmart, your grocery store, there are these rubber shaped molds, right? And you can create and you can pour water into them, put it in your freezer overnight, you end up with these giant ice cubes, these spheres, these cubes. They look really cool. They're really cool little items. Well, the price on Amazon, I'm seeing one for $8 $8.50

Robert Plank 2:00 $10.56 two $12.97 so, I mean, on average, let's just say, you know, nine, $10 for a piece of rubber. Right then I go and I'm gonna search ice cube trays on a site as search when I'm looking to get one of these items made. And the cool thing about, and I mean, most, most things, especially simple things, just talking about, you know, kitchen whiskers, spatulas, cutting boards, stuff like that. You can literally get these things made very, very cheaply. And if you want to, you know, give it a brand, give it a name, then it doesn't cost you any extra money. And then that is something that you can mail into amazon.com warehouse, and it sits in their warehouse and until it's sold, and then Amazon deals with that and pays you the money. So search for ice cream trays. You can get them for 80 cents. I'm trying to find some good looking ones. I'm seeing the exact ones that were sold on Amazon. Those ones don't have price. I'm going through, and another one that's okay, exactly the ones that I'm seeing sell for $8.50 and the exact, literally, the exact same picture, is you can get them for 20 cents. So the idea here is that you say, All right, well, I'm just going to try some stuff out. I'm going to get my own brand of ice cube trays made, right? And maybe I'll call them Robert ice cube trays, and I will get what's called the UPC code, and I'll tell Amazon, well, I want to make a listing for these Robert brand ice cube trays. You just go and buy 100 or you buy 500 for 20 cents each, and then get them sent into Amazon's warehouse, and then you give it a little bit of a markup, and it costs you a little bit of money to ship it into Amazon. Okay? Amazon takes a little bit out of every sale. Okay, that's fair, because they're doing all this work, and then you get what's left over. So that's what we're talking about today, is making money on Amazon. We're not talking about Kindle, create space, promoting as an affiliate. We're not talking about web stores, none of that stuff. We're talking about how you can get a physical item on Amazon. And if that sounds scary, it's okay, because there is, there's a way to build up to that, which we're going to talk about today. So today's episode is sponsored by drop ship, ceo.com which is the course where we actually show you how to do this Amazon stuff. We'll get to that later. But for now, out of the four things that you completed today in your online business, how much money did those things make you, and if they didn't make you any money, or if they were the wrong things, and maybe you need to re examine what you're doing. So out of all the things that have you know, helped me to be productive and make me money and get things finished, out of all the crazy things, I always come back to this thing called for dt, four daily tasks complete, four things today that need me doing, right and if that means recording a. Podcast, emailing your list, if that means getting some new traffic going. But most of things that we end up doing, if we don't have a system, are just time wasters, right? Or just researching or buying stuff, or just kind of half setting up a website. A half set a website isn't going to make you any money, but a website that's the crappiest looking, website that has a button where someone can buy. That's a start, right? Then you go back and you add a headline, so you have website with a headline and a button. Well, now that's even better a headline and a button and a video or some bullet points. Then that's something you can build on. And the same is true with what we're going to talk about today, this whole Amazon business. So a couple quick thoughts. I'm gonna set a countdown timer to make sure that I don't I don't go over time here, because I want to just touch on a couple quick thoughts. All right. Number one, get out more. Number two, don't compare your insides to the outsides of others. Number three, an abundance mindset. So the first thing is my mentor. I mean, way over a decade ago, when I first got started, had the saying, which was that, Hey, Robert, you need to get out more. What I mean by that is, when I first got started, I was stuck in programmer mode, right? I would teach people how to program php. I would create a pop up plug in things like that. And my my mentor at the time, would try all these crazy things. He'd go and buy leads to make his list over 2 million email addresses. He would set up like Halloween, AdSense websites, all these crazy things. Because, I mean, you need to sometimes have a little fun project, because that might be the new stream of income. I know it sounds a little scary, but this income you have right now might dry up or slow down in the future. So you always have to try a few new things, right? Set up an affiliate program, try making money from five or try flipping a website, but get out more and try these new things. And if this Amazon stuff is your way of getting out more, then maybe that's it. And so quick thought number two is, there's your insides and there's others outside. And I think maybe Wayne Dyer has a saying that's like, Don't compare your behind the scenes to someone else's highlight reel. And that same mentor would frustrate you, because I would be struggling some days to make a couple 100 bucks a day, and he'd come out of the gate and say, hey, look, here's a screenshot of my Google AdSense. Here's a screenshot of all of my ad clicks my websites. I just made two grand today just for showing up, because he set up 1000s of websites, and they all made him a couple different clicks, and they all added up to two grand a day. But a few years later, one day, that two grand a day dropped to 50 bucks a day. He got freaking Google slapped. I don't know if anything else happened, but he got so frustrated, he just shut down all of his sites overnight. So be really careful of someone's claiming a million dollars a month. You know, it's, I'm sure that. I mean, there's, sure, there's people out there that make that kind of money, but it's like, if you're letting that kind of thing get to you, or if it's like you're letting that stop you from even making one grand a month, then that's the opposite of what they're trying to do, right? I mean, most people out there are good or trying to help you, and when they show you these kinds of what's possible, or what they've set up, or even, like what I have set up, I'm trying to get you to even 1% or even 10% and where I'm at right now. So just and also beware of someone who never shares their struggles and their roadblocks. Because if yes, me, that's the most interesting part, right? If someone says, my first month they made 100 grand a month, I'm like, Well, what about the part where you really struggled because, and where you learn because I want to know how to avoid that, or how to get through that quickly, the same way that you did, right? And I mean, that leads me to this thing called an abundance mindset and a scarcity mindset. Be really careful about especially when you're comparing yourself to others, which is, like, I mean, not a good idea, right? Be really careful about bitterness, jealousy, gossip, complaining, worrying about stuff that's not really a problem yet, right? Like, I mean, the number one thing is people saying, well, I can't make a product. I can't sell stuff on Amazon, because what if someone refunds? What if someone leaves me a bad reveal? Well, you know what? That is, something to a problem to tackle once you're at that point. But let's just get one step at a time, right? The average person doesn't have a list. Average person doesn't have an opt in page, a sales letter, a product. So how about get yourself a product and then, if it's not selling, that's the next step in in your sequence to tackle. But don't worry too much, or don't play the tape so far that you can't do something today, because what's gonna happen five years from now? Well, if you do nothing today, then five years will be in the same place you're at right now. So the only way you can fail is by doing nothing. And it's makes more sense to try something new, even if it's going in the wrong direction a little bit, or if it's if it's a misstep. And then in the future, you realize, okay, well, there's I had to get through the bad part to get to this new good part. Don't cut off your nose to spite the face. Everyone can make money and just be really careful about these things that we tend to. Fall into right? And you know what, too. I mean, if, if you get a few refunds, you're doing something right, because you're making it enough sales that a small percentage, then refund. That's just the cost of doing business. If people are copying you, stealing your ideas, you make something, and it turns out a month later, so it makes the exact same thing. And hey, you must be doing something, right? So productivity wise, I mean,

Robert Plank 10:24 I cycle through a couple different things. The big thing is do four things a day, and then if that kind of doesn't work after a while, because, I mean, it starts to lose effectiveness after maybe three weeks. And then if, when that happens, then I need to be accountable to someone else. And every time I do one of those four things, I'll just send a quick text message to someone like my business partner, and I'll just say, Okay, this thing I was gonna do, this blog post I was gonna make that's now posted, this the video is gonna upload, that's now uploaded. So that way, it's like, I'm doing four things, but then I'm also telling someone else what I'm doing. And then if that stops working, and let's say a month later, have to maybe outsmart my own brain a little bit. I will put a few tasks on what's called my Google Calendar, so I'll be doing stuff, and pop up comes up and I say, Okay, well, I need to send this document into my account. Okay, cool. That's one of my four things, right? And if that stops working, I'll stop doing the calendar thing, and I'll pull out a countdown timer. I use one called Cool timer runs on Windows, and you can just say, Okay, I'm gonna set 30 minutes, and I have 30 minutes to write this article. And then once the timer goes off, I have to leave the computer, and it's trains your brain. So just to shut everything else down, put the phone in the other room, turn off Twitter, turn off Facebook, and just buckle that and focus on what's happening and if that stops working. And so now we're like four months. Now we're four or five months in of doing four things every single day for 30 days time is five. Now we've got hundreds of things done, whereas your competitors maybe they had a good day where they got 20 things done, but then for the next month, they got nothing done. So really, you're still coming out ahead. And then if that doesn't work, I'll start recording my screen. I use a program called Camtasia recorder to make my video products. And you know what I'll do sometimes is I will record myself doing just the simple stuff I need to do just, you know, going in updating plugins, going in producing video, not to publish online. But for some reason, when it's being recorded, I have to buckle down and do it. And so, so all these things, you know, all these people have all these crazy systems, but as soon as you simplify things, to get your head around it, things make a lot more sense. So that's my little productivity. Little spiel there, mini episode, mini so I don't know, but we're gonna talk about now that you know what you need to do. And I know, you know we've got all these hang ups from our own worst enemy, and everything you want is on the other side of fear. And where do they You Think You Can you can't. You're right. All that stuff, Amazon. So maybe you've noticed, if we go to Amazon and we search for anything, if we search for ice cube trays, we search for and, I mean, the best way I can explain this starting off are books, right? So if you think of like a book, I mean, let me just go to Amazon books. And I mean, we're not talking about self publishing. We're not talking about Kindle books, talking about physical books that go in the bookstore, right on Amazon, looking on best sellers, there's stuff like BJ Novak, the book with no pictures, gone. Girl, a novel. Cool. We'll go to gone. Girl, and novel, we'll click on that page, and basically you can buy the novel, gone. Girl, paperback, $9 but below that, it says, well, 49 people are selling it used for $8.84 people selling it new for $7 so I'll click on that, and basically there's a list of all these different people that are selling this book called Gone Girl and one person are Amazon selling it directly for $9 but There are people selling it for $7 plus $3 shipping. $3 shipping, $8 for plus $4 shipping. So basically, Amazon, in a lot of ways, is like eBay. Right where you go to eBay, you search for something, and multiple people are selling the same thing, and it's almost like a bidding system. So literally, anyone, including you, can sell stuff you have around the house, maybe you have used books, and that's an okay place to start thinking about it is, what if you went and found a book you had laying around the house, if you had gone girl, if you had Twilight, if you had 50 shades of gray, whatever book you have laying around the house. Basically, you can register what's called an amazon seller central account, and in our drop ship CEO, course, we show you how to register that, but it's called a Amazon seller account. And what it allows you to do is you can, and it's free, also it's just the Amazon takes, I think, like $1 out of every sale, or some other percentage or something. But basically, you can go to the listing for, say, a book. You can. Click on a button that says I'm gonna sell this book, and then basically you just, well, you say, either I've got a new or used book, and I want to price it at whatever I want. And so here's the interesting thing is you can, for sure, you can be a jerk and say, This books $50 used, and no one's gonna buy it, because everyone else will buy it at $8 right? But here's what you could do, is you could say, well, this book is one cent plus $5 shipping, okay, one cent plus $5 shipping, and it probably won't cost you a whole $5 to do that, but I mean, you that will get you listed on Amazon. That'll be the first thing you have listed. And then when that order comes in, Amazon will say, Well, cool, you just made your sale. And what you have to do is print out their shipping label and and then, you know, put it in the mail and mail it off to whoever it said that, that you sold it to. And then whatever money is left over after the tiny fee, and it is tiny, and after the shipping, me might make a couple bucks. And, I mean, I know it's not a million dollars a month. I know what's on 100 grand a month, but there is your first sale right there. And I know what's not a living, but that is your first sale right there, and that's a great place to just get started of getting, I mean, just getting the hang of, okay, when order comes in, I go and ship it out, and that's done. So that's the first step. Is just your first sale, selling used book for one penny, plus shipping order comes in, print out the label, put it in a box, mail it out. And I mean, chances are you have a cardboard box, you're out in the house, and if not, go and order something from Amazon. And instead of throwing out the box, save the box somewhere and you can just reuse it later on, huh? Kind of interesting. So that's how you make your first sale. But then you're thinking, Okay, well, I only have so many used books around the house. What next? Well, what next is this thing. You can call it scanning. You can call it thrifting. This is basically where, I mean, the way that most things work is you go to your Walmart, you go to your target and their shelves. I mean, they have limited shelf space, and it's very competitive, right? And you might go into a shelf and see all these toasters, and, I mean, some are eye level, some are down below, and there's all they have this whole system. But basically, some things sell, some things don't right, and because it's the real world, sometimes they have too much inventory that they need to get rid of. So what they do is, after a certain amount of time, they go and sell these to the to, you know, these discount stores, your Kmart, your Big Lots, and even some of the stuff on at Walmart, things like that, where, basically you can go in and just because of where you personally live, the price is a little less than the price on amazon.com just because, I mean, Amazon has huge warehouses, but you go to any place in the United States or any place in the world, and the prices are different. And you can go to your grocery store, right? You can go and find you can go and find silverware. You can go and find cups or plates or things like that, and go across the street to your discount store and it's several dollars less. Well, why? Because one, I mean, one store is trying to double their money, the other store is trying to make just $1 off every sale, right? Or one store bought tons of these items in bulk, and they can, they can price a little bit lower. And so the point is that the price on Amazon is not necessarily the lowest price of something. And I mean, obviously not on everything. There are certain kinds of items that you want to stay away from, like electronics. Usually Amazon's the cheapest. But basically there is an iPhone app you can install on your smartphone, or Android or whatever. You go into these stores, and I go into these stores multiple times a week, and you just scan certain items. And so some of these items I'm talking about, there's some DVDs, there's some diapers, there are some like office supplies and things like that, where I scan them and they're $5 at this discount store and $15 on Amazon. Well, why? Just because it just so happens that Amazon's inventory is low and the demand is high, and the price just ends up being that price. And I mean, you've seen stuff like this, like, you go to your discount store, and sometimes the price for things is like, super low. It's like, Whoa. That big pack of soap is like, $2 well, why is that? Just because that's, that's the way that it worked out. And so the thing is that not everyone can drive across the whole United States to your town in particular and find that the low price that you happen to have at your store just not how it works. So you can buy these things. What I'll do is I'll scan these items and find what's a good seller and just fill up the cart. I literally will fill the cart until it can't be

Robert Plank 19:40 piled on anymore, right? It's filled to the brim, filled the capacity, and so it'll be like, you know, 100 or $200 worth of stuff. I'll take it to the cash register, go and pay for it, you know, take it home, toss it in the box, tell Amazon what inventory I'm sending in, and I can. Say, Well, this item, I will price it at $19 this other item, I will price it at $10 I can set my own price and that me that might mean it will sell or not sell, right? And I mean, there's this whole price game where some people will undercut you, or I might have a price that I that might be too high, and I might take a few extra weeks for that item to sell, but it's worth it, because it's like, okay, if everyone's selling something for $10 and I go, when I price it at $20 well, the stuff that's at $10 flies off the shelves, right? But then once their inventory hits zero, I'm the only game left in town, and then I'll sell several of these copies of this for $20 so I can always price whatever I want. I can always change it later. But the point is, I go when I find these, these things that are cheaper in the store than they are on Amazon, and sometimes, like I said, it's like, hard to find movies or, like, weird sizes of diapers that don't I mean, and what ends up happening is they're not. They don't sell very well at Target, because it's just a weird site. It's like a size two jumbo or something, right? Of diapers, whatever that means. It doesn't sell at Walmart. It goes to the Kmart. Doesn't sell at Kmart, then I buy and then someone, somewhere is only looking for this rare size of diapers. And then that's where it gets sold. So I send this stuff in, and it takes about seven days for it to get to Amazon's warehouse, for them to check it in. And then now it's listed. And then now my job is done, because now it just sits in their warehouse. And then as soon as sale comes in, then I get an email saying, Well, cool. Now we sold your diapers for this amount, we took out this tiny fee. Here's what's left. And then every week or so, they just wired the money to my bank without me having to do anything. So two different things so far, right? The first thing you can do with Amazon is you can find something that's already in their catalog, and you can say, I will sell it at this price, and I will ship it right? So you can say, here's this book of Twilight, where you can gone part three or whatever there is, like, I'm Brittany. Got to know where those books are, right? But you say, I'm going to sell this book for a penny plus five bucks. Shipping order comes in, and then you have to mail it. That's called, fulfilled by merchant. The second thing we're talking about is called scanning and thrifting and fulfilled by Amazon, where you go into these stores, you buy 20 packs of diapers, you mail them in to Amazon, and it sits in Amazon's warehouse. Then when someone goes to buy these diapers, Amazon says, Well, hey, it has free two day Amazon Prime shipping and all that stuff. And so when the order comes in with that, you don't have to worry about it. Amazon sells it. So two different things, right? One is, you have one book to sell, so it's fine for you, shipping it out. But then you have 20 packs of diapers. You don't want to be the person sending out diapers in the mail every single day. Just send it all the Amazon. Amazon handles it for you. So first thing was your first sale. The second thing was scanning and thrifting. And the third thing I want to talk about now is this thing called sourcing, this thing called private labeling, and this is the ice cube tray stuff. I went and searched Amazon for ice cube trays. We found they were selling for nine, $10 then I go to the plates that actually makes ice cube trays. They're selling for 20 cents. So basically, there are a lot of manufacturers that are in the business of making 500 of something, making 100 or something, and they don't care about selling to Amazon. They just, they're in the business of making a bunch of things, and they want to sell you these items in bulk, and then they're fine with being done with that. So that's where you can come in and kind of play middleman and say, All right, well, I'm gonna go to Amazon's Home and Kitchen category. I'll look at the best sellers. And there's stuff like, you know, Keurig cups. There's stuff like water filters. Don't want to get into that, but there are these, I don't know what you call them, like stir things, not like spoons, but like, I guess, I guess spatulas, right? That's, that's something that can sell. There's stuff like, like a measuring cup, a muffin pan, non stick, what's it called? Like, a baking tray. Stuff like that, a pot holder, I guess, like a mitten type of thing. So it's like, I mean, little, simple things like that. We're talking about stuff that you know, can sell for five or $10 take you 1020 cents to make. And so the the idea here is pretty much the same, where you go, when you say, hey, Amazon, I want to sell this thing. So as before, you went to an existing listing and said, Okay, I want to sell this listing. Now you're creating your own listing. And if you think about anything, you click on and Amazon, I mean, what's it really made for? Made up of well, there is the title of it, there's a picture of it, there's the price. There's maybe a couple bullet points in the description, and then that's about it. And then from that point, all there is to worry about is getting some sales in, getting some reviews in, and then and the name of the game at that point, once you have that product in there, is to build up a listing. So what ends up happening is yo and kind of click around, fool around, you'll find something that looks like a decent seller. And in dropship CEO, we have a criteria for that. And you go and you know, you don't want to make your own coffee maker, right? I mean, that just sounds too complicated. You don't want to make your own like couch. Sounds like a huge undertaking, but if you get your own little spatula is made. They cost you five cents each. Buy 500 of them, send them the Amazon the warehouse. That's a nice little experiment to try, right? And so, basically, so the thing is that you can find something that's selling really well, like you see, like muffin trays, like little things that, like the molds, whatever the dough and the muffins. And you you go and you say, All right, I want to sell my own brand of muffin trays. So you go and you get, you buy 500 of these for a few pennies each. You go to Amazon, you make your listing and And so basically, you go and you find something that's already selling, right? You find their supplier. So that's how you end up getting your own muffin trays made. You get buy what's called a UPC code, which is a special thing that you know, Amazon needs from you, so that they know, okay, well, this is the number on this item. And then you just get to the point where you send in a few, and you can even get some samples from the supplier. Just get a handful at first, just to get these things listed, just to make your first couple of sales and just to break evens. Because here's the other thing that a lot of people miss out on, is that with any kind of these sites, I mean, remember, like, if you ever messed around with eBay, with eBay, the name in the game is getting that feedback number built up with Amazon. It's very similar, getting a lot of reviews, getting a lot of feedback, because there's all this, you know, social proof and stuff like that. And in all these sites, if something has more reviews, it's going to get ranked higher. Something gets more sales, it's going to get ranked higher because, well, that seems to be a proven seller according to Amazon. So you get these muffin trays made, and you play around with the pricing. So for your first few muffin trays, you break even, right? So after, after the cost of getting or buying them, getting them sent in, the fee, Amazon takes out, you more or less break even. And so the name of the game here is to just sell a crap load to get a few reviews. Once you get a few reviews, those reviews stay there, right? If you go and you get 200 reviews of your muffin trays, then those reviews will be there forever, and then you could increase the price, then you make somewhat of a profit on that, and then you can go and run what are called Amazon ads, by the way. I shouldn't even say this. There are, there's, there's multiple courses on Amazon, right? They all leave out least the ones that I've seen this stuff about Amazon ads. So basically, you can just recycle the profits you made from your selling of this physical item into getting more exposure, and you can basically buy your way in to the first page rankings. So if someone searches for muffin trays, well, then your muffin trays will show up at the bottom of that first page, and then you get your extra sales that way. And so it's all about just like growing this new business you have by going through this process first sending a used book so you can get the hang of using this thing called the Amazon seller account. And maybe it's a little bit of a pain in the butt to print out a shipping label and tack on one thing, but that's how you make your first sale. Then something to try. I just go in and try this out. This will be kind of fun. Go into a discount store, scan some of these items and find something that sells for three times on Amazon that it does in the store. And you'd be surprised at how many things actually do. So you buy a few of these things, load up the cart, send it in the Amazon when it gets sold. Hmm, now you kind of made your money. And I mean, no guarantees on income. But the way, the rough math, the way this works, is, if you buy something at your discount store and it sells for triple what you paid for. More or less, you double your money, right? More or less, you put in $100

Robert Plank 29:28 in into your inventory, then more or less, you end up with $200 coming back out, right? And so that's just a way of getting the hang even more of making those hands full of Amazon sales. And then here's where the cool part comes in. Here's where it comes in, where, even if you're not in the United States, you can do this thing where you go and you find a hot seller, you find your muffin trays, you find your spatulas. You go and you go to this other site where they have a directory of suppliers. And usually you can. Find the exact, exact item that's selling for $10 on Amazon because the picture looks almost identical, or is identical. And then you can get a few samples. You can buy 100 of these. You can buy 500 of these. There's a little bit of money to put in, but it's not like you have to put in like 10 grand. It's like a few $100 to get your first shipment. And now what me and Lance like to do my business partner, we like to have the items sent to us first, and then we mail to Amazon. But if you're outside the US, you can actually give these suppliers your what's called the Amazon shipping label, and they can send it right over to Amazon. You don't even have to be the middle man. You can just say, I want to have 500 spatulas. Put them in a box. Here's a label, send them off to Amazon. Amazon puts the labels on each individual item. Amazon checks in the items to the inventory. So all you really had to do was create your listing, put in the title, put in the picture, put in the description, and then get the put in a little bit of money to get that inventory sent right in. And then you can play around with getting your reviews, getting your ads going up, and all that good stuff. And by the way, if you want to get mentioned on the Robert Plank show, just go to Robert Plank show.com/itunes, and leave us a any kind of review you want, but make sure to leave your name and a quick comment and I'll mention you on the air. Because if you can go in there and say it's four stars, five stars, that's great, but I can't see your name. But if you just say even like great podcasts, whatever I can see, who the heck yard, I can mention you on my show, just like Thor and fish. Await Brett. 9986 Music Worldwide, one ellieville, Shannon, Olivia, 905. Michael Clements, Jay King, EDM, love your Peter. McKenzie, Lucy Barna, camo, Chrissy envy.

I know who that is. That's Mr. Jason Wally Walter and himself. But if you notice, some people leave usernames. I'd rather you leave your real first and last name, that way I can mention your name personally, and it's in the show permanently. It's always in there, whether we talk about Amazon webinars, any of that stuff. But that's, I mean, that's Amazon FBA, free, all right. So pretty simple, and the only really hang up is just navigating the screens, knowing what to click on, know what to do, not getting hung up on the I'm outside the US, stuff on the bank account stuff and in our course called dropship ceo.com, that's D, R, O, P, S, H, I, P, C, E, o.com, is where we show you How to get those different things set up, how to send something in, how to do your scanning and thrifting, how to do your sourcing and private labeling. And you know what, too. Let me just close with this. If people are making things too complicated for you, then chances are they haven't achieved mastery. I mean, I would not recently been on a real tear. As far as productivity wise has been going, as far as getting all the, you know, getting this, this book, this manual, these DVDs, the sales that are all this stuff sent out and and, you know, in process. And you see a lot of people who'll just go on and on about productivity stuff, and we'll have some new things to talk about every single day, every single week, and it's like, you're saying so much stuff, but you're not making it simple. And there's, there's like, different processes you go through. There's one, there's one stage where you're not really sure what's working, what's not. Then there's the intermediate, middle stage, where you're kind like, you don't really know if some things are working, but you're not sure what's the 80% what's 20% right? What's the 80% that's a waste. The 20% is actually working for you. And then once you break through to that, things become really, really simple, and you say, Okay, well, out of all the things I could do in a day, it makes more sense for me just to do these four things, because there's only so many hours. And these are the things that are most worth my time, right? It's most worth my time to record a podcast, to do this thing called a pitch webinar, to email my list, and little things like clicking the like button on Facebook. Maybe that's not the best use of my time. Maybe that's not what's making me money. And so I mean, this thing called Amazon, it's great. New source of income. It's a source of income for me, source of income for my business partner, source of income for my business partner's daughter. All these different things. I want you to do it as well. So go to drop ship CEO, join our course and get your Amazon business up and running. So that's all for me. The Robert Plank show that was. Scanning, thrifting, sourcing and private labeling using Amazon FBA seller, drop shipping. Drop Ship, CEO, get that going. Let me know how your Amazon business is cranking along, and I'll talk to you very, very soon. Thank you. This has been the Robert Plank show you.
