Made $106,000 in 2 weeks

If you invested $35k - and within 2 weeks had an ROI of $106k - seems to me you'd be listening to the person who taught you in the first place. There's an old US saying that applies here - "Dance with the guy who brung ya".

If you are new - why would you 'reinvest' ALL of your profit? Pull out the original $35k and $21k more (profit) - and buy again with the remaining $50k. So what if it doesn't work as well this time? You'd still be in profit. Remember you have to pay taxes on that income.

This might have been a fluke - or you might be on to something. Run with it.

Why not just go to Alibaba and buy the products yourself and have them shipped to Amazon by doing FBA? What is your cost compared to Alibaba...see link below to see their cost

This way you do not risk getting burned by "some guy"... the only risk you have is they stop selling.

Seems like this guy is too good to be true.....but you never know, some people are actually decent in this world yet.

Wow, that's impressive, hopefully that will continue for you.

If you made $106,000.00 selling this game. Based on the pricing at amazon I would imagine if you sourced correctly you should have made about $7.00 per game selling it around $14.00 to $16.00. That means you sold over 15,000 games in 2 weeks??? There are a lot of sellers of this game and many fulfilled by amazon at the &12.00 and a lot of competition with games like "Words against Humanity" Would you mind telling us what you spend the 35k on.

Dang...that's lightning in a bottle. i would trust my source and reinvest a portion to keep building. Awesome return!

I know what you mean - and you have already seen the possibility....but don't start dreaming too far ahead. Pricing has changed on the product - more competing sellers perhaps - or perhaps the money is still there as lower prices may appeal to a different demographic.

The domain/site of the person you worked with didn't exist until August - 2-3 months before you worked with him. That's not important AS LONG AS everything is the same now as it was then.

Never underestimate the value of CONNECTIONS. I would suggest you use the search button above and check out threads by this WF member:

Instead of reinvesting your entire profit, I think it would be better to keep reinvesting 20% of your profits and banking the rest. Keep in mind you are still in the learning phase. One bad move and you will be reaching back into that $35k pot you started with.

great to hear that it actualy look like my success story you should be afraid but just keep trying and just do it if you did it once i am sure you can do it again

REALITY CHECK !!!!!

The OP says his guide is a personal friend of Hasbros CEO, but it appears that he has been illegally selling knockoffs of a Hasbro product.

If that's the case, I suggest that he should hold on to all that cash to pay for his lawyers to defend him when Hasbro find out.

Selling fake copies of big brands can be very lucrative until you get caught. Hasbro is one of the big litigators when it comes to protecting their Intellectual Property (IP).

There are people on Warrior Forum promoting the idea of selling counterfeits of big brand products. Those who follow that bad advice are taking a big risk.

Last year there were several hundred websites shut down as the first step by big brand owners to protect their IP rights from counterfeiters. Those people immediately lost their businesses, and many of them had a lot of money in inventory that they couldn't sell, or else risk criminal prosecution if they did.

The story hasn't ended there. The brand owners are pursuing the thieves for damages, and when it all ends there could be a lot of bankruptcies.

Why not put all that investment into a legitimate business that can continue operating without always having to look over your shoulder?

Hello Jason

That's amazing ... Any chance I too could get connected with your friend?

Thanks
Howard

Congrats. Just wash & Repeat my friend, you are ahead of the game 71K.

Re-invest one third , not all of your profit,.then re-invest again if it works out.

Is everyone reading this thread happy to follow the leader and risk everything by selling counterfeits?

See post #21

I would like to see the OP's response.

Also, i would like to mention that when i paid for the speak out games, i also got an invoice etc showing that i have rights to sell them from hasbro. this is probably the part you say he faked those documents lolol. i dont know. i do often hear him when im at his office on the phone with the hasbro ceo guy. maybe its all just one big conspiracy lol.

Hello Jason. I don't think it is a good idea to post several points on your thread as if it was a chat conversation. Try to limit your posts that looks like you're just spamming your own thread. You can always point out your questions on one post. At least, users can answer your queries in one go.

So, um... I do not have access to as much capital and I am assuming and hoping that these products are not fake (mostly for your own sake). Furthermore, I was wondering do you think someone with lets say, 1/10 of your starting capital could give this method a shot? Does being located in the United states impede this process (or eases it?).

Maybe you should consider separating your business into different niches and see which one(s) work and which don't. That way you don't have all your eggs in one basket and shouldn't lose as you can replace/ditch those that aren't profitable.

I think it's so great to hear of your recent success in this venture Jason. If it were me I'd be on cloud 9 with that ROI too...awesome job! Hopefully you can keep this momentum going. Wishing you the best in your future endeavors!

Jason, in between the quote and reply buttons there is a multi quote button.

Still a bit faffy but it puts everything into one post. You can edit the quoted parts if you want to draw attention to just one bit.

This is a very awesome story!

If you have something working, then why not keep at it? I'd keep going and work on slowly expanding. Keep it up!

When a Moderator asks you change something - not the best idea to continue as you were and argue with it.

If you don't want to use quote links - You can simply copy paste a quote into your reply and then highlight that text and use the "quote marks" in the edit bar.

I'd advise not tossing off the advice about "fakes" - there are a lot of them around and authorities have been cracking down on them. Shouldn't be a problem to ask your supplier about it.

It could be the time when you are selling, its approaching the holiday season and you have more sales as well.

$106,000 in 2 weeks that's unbelievable man. You should do it again but just with $30k i think.

Firstly, congrats on the big ROI! That's wonderful and in just 2 weeks time frame, even more wonderful! It sounds like there was a strategy rather than a random gamble when you sold Speak Out. I'd say: stick with the strategy but don't put all of your eggs in one basket. I'd definitely encourage on researching other products to sell, rather than focusing on one thing. You will do well, have faith in your learning abilities and in your decisions.

Wow. I love seeing stories like this. Keep up the good work.

You should also start work with shopify from aliexpress pick your products, Idea good or not ?

wow it so amazing! I'm newbie, it 's nescessary for me

Wau man you risked 35k...respect for that!

Looks like you have a winner. Just need to rinse and repeat!

LMAO! Read my story at my website and you'll learn that's how I built 3 6-figure EMPIRES and went broke months later!

NEVER - NEVER - NEVER sink all your profits back into your 1st success in a new business.

You want to put 50% of profits back in.. that way if you fail in Month 2, it's not an extreme loss or setback.

If it's profitable.. you can now take 100% of THAT (the next month's) MONEY and re-invest..

But then in MONTH 3, you want to take 20% of all profits and SAVE IT!

Jesus.. I'd have been a millionaire at age 24 if I had just done that..

There is professional freelancer website name is fiver where you can get a massive support for just some bucks , believe they can assist you for your request

Did you do this with Amazon FBA?

you did real well. Are you testing? Don't spend all you money until you make sure it works.

Hello
Try the freelance professional site called fiverr i belive you will find what you seek for

Congrats man! I am from China. May I know how you find your sources in China?

Let's get one thing clear here... unless the games come from Hasbro itself, and with written authorization to resell - you are partaking in criminal activity. In the long run you will lose more than your shirt.

To simply say "this guy is buddies with the ceo" is about the lamest/scammiest excuse out there. A CEO's job is to surge up profits, not give deals to friends and family (if this was even the case, which I seriously doubt). This is the last thing a real CEO would do, think about it.

Anyways, not hating, congrats on your success, and if this is a gamble you want to take, then it's on you. Personally I believe this is about the worst kind of business you can create.

Hi Jason,

I have been in this industry for past many years and have seen many kind of marketing strategies applied for various niches. Without knowing the kind of strategy that you used to market, i can't advice whether it is Fake, Real or Luck. Even though you have made three times of ROI (Return Of Investment) i can't advice to go ahead without knowing the actual structure of what you are marketing and how you are marketing.

Let me tell you one honest truth about this field that i have learned from my experience, please don't blindly follow a method (without understanding its working structure completely) just because of the reason that you have made some money by it initially. If you do so then you will bleed money in future.

I'm saying all these from my experience !!!!

To be very very honest i really don't have a good opinion on how you made money, because in the post you have mentioned that you made 100K+ dollars in 2 weeks, As per my understanding i believe that you learned the marketing strategy and made money in 2 weeks. If this is true, i don't mind saying that your strategy is not good. To learn and understand about any strategy you need to spend atleast 40 days. You may learn any strategy in less than one day, but that is not enough you should learn to analyze how this strategy works in the real market. That's why i say you can learn, what the strategy is in one day, but analyzing how it works on the real market will take time, because the market is not the same everyday. Today you may see some results but it will be the opposite on the other day. So you have to check how your strategy works in market for at-least for one month, then you can scale up your investment.

Please don't get me wrong for being negative in what you have achieved buddy, I thought of giving you some honest and valuable advice, please don't get me wrong.

Cheers,
Anand.

That is a great ROI. Keep us updated on your progress.

35K turns into 106K in 2 short weeks? Wow, that's pretty amazing!

Hesitation is good, it means you're treading lightly. After all, if it worked the first time, that doesn't mean it'll work the second time.

That's great to be true but sorry to say that it is impossible to be even exist

That's awesome results, keep it up man.

Jason, you know something?

What you are earning in a matter of 2 weeks is what most people will like to earn for decades but most could not even reach that mark.

Especially when it comes to earning online.

May I ask who are you learning from?

I have never done Amazon selling before. Only affiliate marketing so far.

But if I am in your shoes, I will do the other way round. Or maybe $20K back into Amazon to test first before considering putting more.

Besides that board game, have you ever considered coming with a range of other board games as well?

Speaking of those, I used to be a big fan of Monopoly and Risk.

Perhaps you may like to model upon those.

In terms of internet marketing space instead of offline business?

Because to be honest, that is something no one has ever done it before.

Since everyone prefers to play video and computer games.

Or online games since internet.

I think you're doing it backwards.

Put the profit in the bank and play on the original $35K.

Obviously, you were fortunate to discover a system that works. Why are
you doubting what you know worked? Why are you seeking advice on a forum
where the vast majority of people who will be willing to give you advice have
never achieved the level of success you've had?

Doubt takes you out of action. Action takes you out of doubt.

Stop doubting what you already know and take action.

There is no chance you made $106,000 in 2 weeks. Amazon has filters in place they would'nt allow a new seller to withdraw $1,000 in 2 weeks let alone $100,000.

They put a hold on payments if you make too many sales too fast and withdraw too much too quickly within days of starting, it happened to me. its called 'Account under review'.

Amazon would be open to fraudulent sellers, list hundreds of items, withdraw all the money, dispatch nothing.

I see your points but several things where at play. First, i would like to mention the guy i went through made $400,000 off speakout in 4 days. Thats what inspired me. I sat and watched over his shoulder and seen his numbers rise. The first thing that was at play here is the holiday season. Second thing, we happen to sell ours right as the video of the Ellen show which showed Kevein Hart and a Kardashian playing the game on ellens show. Taking advantage of the holiday and the viral video, we made a lot of money. I wasnt able to withdraw ANY money for about a month. It all sat on my amazon account. Same with my guy. That $400,000 sat on his amazon for awhile. He sank almost all of his 400k back into it. I pulled out about half. and then other half following month. Third thing at play here is his connection to hasbro manufacturers and ceo. So, allllll of this explains why the advantage. WHY the rush. WHY the fast cash. Its all strategy and WHO you know. I recently quized him up on some of yalls statements and questions/concerns. He showed me information regarding where he gets the games. Its one of hasbros manufacturers in china.

Life's never boring on the internet. I never saw lifestyle/religious/spiritual/new age/self-help spam on an IM forum before.

Maybe where you are from.

"Don't fix what isn't broken" has merit, but so does this:

Diversify.

If you want sound accounting and business advice, you need to take some of your profits & secure an accountant and an attorney and ASK THEM, not some random people on an IM forum - hardly the crowd you need telling you want to do with such a sum of money.

If your doing that level of business without an accountant and an attorney, you're not serious about business.

Between this post and Walter Hay's advice, you have all the info you need on how to proceed to your next step. But you keep ignoring Walter's advice and it is my guess you will also ignore this advice I just gave you, even though this is the most sound advice you will ever receive on this issue.

Hi Jason, there is no such thing as "luck" in online business, you either do it right and make money or you mess up and don't make anything so if you made 106k after investing 35k, you're doing it right.

Regarding new products, this is how I usually do it on Amazon: after finding something I like, I source about 20 of them, list it on Amazon, optimize it as good as I can, sell them on Amazon and see how it performs.

What you need to know about Amazon is that you really won't know how a product will perform until you put it on Amazon. So, yes you should look into other products and you should have lots of lots of products on Amazon, but do it slowly so you don't end up losing everything.

Why would you take advice from us?

Nobody here is making that kind of money.

The best person to seek advice from is yourself.

You seem to know what's going on.

Good luck.
