Introducing myself - My eyes are opened!

Not sure if this belongs here, if not I apologize!

My name is Josh. I'm new to WF, and slightly new-ish to online business. I've been drop-shipping from Amazon to eBay and from Amazon to other sites for about 2 years now, so I understand some basic concepts. I profit $200-$400 a month so it's basically just gas money for me. My eyes were opened recently when I learned about Jim Cockrum's PAC course, and I've been reading about FBA (Fullfill by Amazon) - the opportunity seems very exciting to actually sell on Amazon instead of using Amazon as a "supplier". I currently work a "9-5" job (more like 6am to 6pm) and I'm a recent grad student who -to be honest- hates what I went to school for, and isn't much more opportunity for growth in my industry than where I am now. Small story short - I see a huge opportunity here with PAC specifically and I'm excited to be a part of a community here to learn, grow, and hopefully one day I'll be "good enough" to teach others as well.
I know there are other opportunities, but I'm open to suggestions. I've read some pretty impressive success stories. Here's to hoping that one day I can be one for others and my family as well.

    Welcome Joshua. Yeah I have seen some of that Amazon stuff. Basically Arbitrage where people are buying things at Walmart, garage sales etc..etc.. and using Amazon's platform to resell it for a profit.

    Looks interesting. Have not heard of the PAC Course

      The PAC course has dozens of hands free sourcing strategies inside of it. It's not about sourcing from retailers like Walmart (although that is ONE of NUMEROUS easy ways to do well on Amazon - I have a team that I pay to do that for me - I virtually never shop for inventory myself.)

      PAC stands for Proven Amazon Course- google it - you'll see over a thousand success stories. This is a truly hands free, rapid growth income stream for many of our students.

      ProvenAmazonCourse.com aka the "PAC" now includes the #1 "Private Label" training on the web (ProvenPrivateLabel.com)! We've been teaching "physical product" sales online since 2002 & we've accumulated over 1,000 success testimonials!

        Nice spamming of your sig link. I bet you waited some time for that one to come around.

    Hi Joshua,

    I was going to show you a course I'm doing wth FBA right now, but looks like the offer is back to full price.

    Stick with what you bought and just follow it through and carry it out.

    Good luck, and welcome to the forum.

      Thanks! And I technically haven't bought anything yet. If I'm interested I wouldn't mind helping someone else out though by using their affiliate link. The PAC course is just one I'm considering.

          Thanks Jill! I did purchase this course and am already 25% through it. I'm learning a ton already, and am on my way. I feel like it may not be as helpful as the PAC course, but I think it'll get me started. Plus, $18 was a steal as you said. Thank you so much!

            You're very welcome.

            It is a big course and she has more for you too.

            She is making her money this way and it's enough for the "one man show" to get your feet wet in it and then spend more later if you need to on more courses.

            You get a full picture of how much work it's going to take to do everything.

            I got through a good bulk of it, but sucked into something else for a month or two here and will have to finish it this summer. Already realized I will need to watch the whole thing first, and then "follow along" on a second round of watching. It's giving me some time to stash away some investment money for when the time is right.

              A course I think will make someone thousands is Luther Landro's effortless restaurant consulting formula.

              You can can make about $5,000 per site that you make, and close 3/10 people you approach by telling them their flash sites don't work on mobile phone.

              A simple search of "filetype:swf [restaurant type] in [city].

              He gives you a ton of templates that you can use to demonstrate what you can do.

                I could recommend a lot of different things - but based on OP's past experience and the direction they mentioned going in is why I mentioned what I did.

                Local web consulting falls into a completely different direction.

    If you read too many of Claude's posts they'll soon close.

    I am a big fan of Jim's PAC course. It greatly assisted me when I first started with my FBA business. A couple of excellent features are the very helpful forum and the fact that new material gets added to their extensive list of course sections.


    I expect you will find in useful well into the future.
