[00:00] Hey everybody, welcome to the free Amazon FBA course.
[00:05] In this video, me and the rest of my team are going to be showing you how to create a Amazon FBA business.
[00:10] This is going to be everything you need to know in this one video.
[00:13] Now, throughout this video, if you have any questions, let me know.
[00:16] But let me give you an overview of what we're going to go over here.
[00:20] So, this is a free Amazon FBA course, like I said.
[00:22] And guys, I want to show you something really cool.
[00:26] Last night, I actually hit a record sales day.
[00:28] So, this is the numbers.
[00:29] This actually isn't the full numbers.
[00:31] It ended up breaking over $10,000.
[00:34] But in the last 30 days on Amazon, my business has done over $80,000.
[00:36] I think we're at like $90,000 now.
[00:38] So, let me let me pull it up for you guys live.
[00:40] Hit my Amazon seller account here.
[00:42] See if you guys can see that.
[00:45] So, $90,000.
[00:48] I don't know if that's going to how I do that.
[00:49] There we go.
[00:49] Maybe you can see that.
[00:51] I'll just refresh it so you can see.
[00:53] This is real numbers.
[00:56] So far today, it's been over $3,600, which is nuts.
[00:59] So, this method, everything I'm going to be showing you in this video still works right now in
[01:02] in this video still works right now in 2025.
[01:06] Last 30 days, over $90,000.
[01:07] I'll be showing you the profit, how much profit that is later in this video.
[01:09] Uh, but the profit was around maybe like $40,000 from that.
[01:11] So, in the last 30 days, I've done around $40,000 profit.
[01:13] So, this is what we're going to go over in this video.
[01:16] We're going to talk about how to find a product, find a manufacturer, list your product, launch the product, and I'm going to be answering literally all your questions.
[01:18] First up, we're going to talk about how to find a product on Amazon.
[01:20] This is called product research.
[01:21] Um, I'm going to be showing you in depth everything you need to know in order to find a product on Amazon.
[01:23] And then later, I'm going to have Connor, who is one of my partners in my business.
[01:24] He's my right-hand man.
[01:26] He helps me to we, you know, we find products for Amazon.
[01:27] We find products, and we'll be showing you behind the scenes how we do everything.
[01:29] Step two is how to find a manufacturer.
[01:31] And there's, this isn't that difficult.
[01:32] Um, we're going to spend an hour going over everything you need to know on how to find a manufacturer, but we've condensed it down.
[01:34] We've made it very simple.
[01:35] I know a lot of times people are
[02:03] simple.
[02:03] I know a lot of times people are unsure how do you find a manufacturer?
[02:05] Don't worry if you've ever been nervous about that before.
[02:07] In this video, we're going to be showing you everything you need to do.
[02:10] Number three is list the product.
[02:13] And so, this is this is Carnivore Electrolytes.
[02:14] This is the product that I showed you that that's done $90,000 in sales in the last 30 days, which is still crazy to me.
[02:17] Um, I'm going to show you how to actually create an Amazon listing that's going to crush it.
[02:24] That's going to make you a ton of money on Amazon.
[02:29] And if you don't understand how Amazon FBA works, don't worry.
[02:32] We're going to be going in depth talking about that.
[02:34] But let me tell you, I think and I've seen and I've tested a lot of different things.
[02:37] I think it's the best way to make money online passively.
[02:41] And we'll talk about what that means in 2025.
[02:42] Now, there's a lot of different ways to make money online.
[02:44] There's affiliate marketing, there's dropshipping, there's, you know, social media agency.
[02:46] I've tested them all and I'm going to tell you right now, as far as legitimate passive income businesses, Amazon is the best.
[02:52] And the cool thing about an Amazon business is you can sell it.
[02:55] So, we're going to talk about how to
[03:04] So, we're going to talk about how to launch a product.
[03:06] And I'm going to be answering all your questions.
[03:07] So throughout this video, if you have any questions, leave it in the comments and me, myself, my team, everyone is going to go through.
[03:15] We're going to answer all your questions.
[03:18] So let's talk a little bit about why you should sell products on Amazon.
[03:22] And I got the data to back this up.
[03:24] So let's let's take a look.
[03:26] E-commerce is growing like crazy.
[03:28] This is Amazon's website, right?
[03:31] Like this is a $2 trillion website.
[03:34] Let's look it up here.
[03:37] In fact, the market cap for Amazon.com is $2.35 trillion.
[03:39] That means that this company is worth over $2 trillion.
[03:41] And what a lot of people don't realize, Amazon allows you to sell your products on their website.
[03:46] So, let me go.
[03:49] And the way Amazon works, just so everyone knows, is people come in here, right?
[03:51] They type in what they're looking for.
[03:53] So, let's say someone types in carnivore electrolytes, like I just did.
[03:57] People that are looking for electrolytes on the carnivore diet, for instance.
[03:59] Well, what are they going to do?
[04:00] They're going to come in here and they're going to look at all the different results.
[04:03] And I don't know about you, but if
[04:04] And I don't know about you, but if you're on the carnivore diet, the the.
[04:06] you're on the carnivore diet, the the one that pops out to me is this product.
[04:08] one that pops out to me is this product right here, carnivore electrolytes.
[04:10] right here, carnivore electrolytes. This is my product.
[04:12] is my product. And you look at all four of these are sponsored.
[04:13] of these are sponsored. And people know that they're smart.
[04:15] that they're smart. They realize that these are sponsored products.
[04:16] these are sponsored products. So if you're on the carnivore diet and you're looking for a product, you're going to click on this product probably.
[04:17] you're on the carnivore diet and you're looking for a product, you're going to click on this product probably.
[04:21] click on this product probably. And then you're going to look at the listing and you're going to see, oh, is this the right product for me?
[04:22] And then you're going to look at the listing and you're going to see, oh, is this the right product for me?
[04:24] listing and you're going to see, oh, is this the right product for me? And you can see that our product right here, uh, we actually recently raised the price.
[04:25] can see that our product right here, uh, we actually recently raised the price.
[04:28] we actually recently raised the price. It's 37.97.
[04:30] It's 37.97. If you do subscribe and save, it's $34.
[04:32] If you do subscribe and save, it's $34. The reason we raised the prices is we're actually we're running out of inventory.
[04:34] The reason we raised the prices is we're actually we're running out of inventory.
[04:35] actually we're running out of inventory. We're I showed you the chart.
[04:36] We're I showed you the chart. Like we're selling so quickly.
[04:39] selling so quickly. It is crazy. Like this is the the numbers right here.
[04:41] this is the the numbers right here. Let me go in just to show you that this is, you know, real.
[04:44] me go in just to show you that this is, you know, real. Let's go to business reports.
[04:47] you know, real. Let's go to business reports. Uh let's go the last 30 days here.
[04:49] reports. Uh let's go the last 30 days here. Custom. Boom. Look at these numbers.
[04:51] here. Custom. Boom. Look at these numbers. Our sales have been We were doing fine.
[04:53] numbers. Our sales have been We were doing fine. We're doing over $1,000 a day.
[04:55] doing fine. We're doing over $1,000 a day. You know, close to $2,000 a day.
[04:57] day. You know, close to $2,000 a day. But in the last, I don't know, five ten days, we've been doing like $8,000 of
[04:59] You know, close to $2,000 a day. But in the last, I don't know, five ten days, we've been doing like $8,000 of
[05:02] But in the last, I don't know, five ten days, we've been doing like $8,000 of
[05:05] days, we've been doing like $8,000 of it.
[05:06] Anyways, I just want to show you guys what's possible.
[05:08] Look at it.
[05:08] In the last almost 30 days, we've done almost $100,000 in in revenue.
[05:12] And revenue is not profit, but our profit margins on this are crazy.
[05:14] So, anyways, that's Amazon.
[05:17] Why Why sell on Amazon, right?
[05:19] That's what we're talking about.
[05:20] E-commerce is growing.
[05:21] Let's see if I can pull up the numbers here.
[05:23] In 2019, e-commerce, and e-commerce just means people buying things online.
[05:25] It was around $500 billion that was spent in 2019.
[05:27] Fast forward to 2024, last year, $1.2 trillion.
[05:29] And then 2025, it's projected to be 1.38.
[05:33] You can see this number is growing every single year.
[05:36] And people always come to me and they're like, "Oh, it's too late to sell on Amazon.
[05:39] What are you talking about?
[05:40] The numbers are growing every year."
[05:41] These numbers you can see here.
[05:43] So Amazon's revenue so far in the last like the trailing last 12 months was $620 billion.
[05:46] That's how much money is being spent on Amazon.com.
[05:48] I'm just showing you guys why Amazon's a really big opportunity before we get into like all the data.
[05:51] So, Amazon makes up around 50%
[06:06] the data.
[06:08] So, Amazon makes up around 50% of all e-commerce sales in the United States.
[06:10] Meaning, one out of every two sales that happen online are happening on Amazon.com.
[06:15] Amazon's projected to do $700 billion in sales on their website this year.
[06:20] So, you can see in the last 12 months it was $620 billion.
[06:22] I showed you in that graph.
[06:24] $700 billion dollars are going to be spent on Amazon's website.
[06:29] And again, as I showed you, you can sell products on Amazon.
[06:31] It's not that everyone think a lot of people I talk to, like random people on the street I talk to, they think that all the products being sold on Amazon are being sold by Amazon.com or are being sold by like Nike or these big companies.
[06:41] No, no, no.
[06:44] $700 billion is going to be spent on Amazon and you can get some of that money.
[06:48] Amazon has more than 200 million prime customers worldwide.
[06:49] In the United States, there's 180 million prime customers.
[06:53] That means like one out of every two people is a prime customer.
[06:59] So, I say all this to say that Amazon is a crazy opportunity right now.
[07:04] There's the opportunity for you to make a lot of money and there's a lot of ways to make money online, but
[07:07] lot of ways to make money online, but let's talk about Amazon.
[07:09] And and for let's talk about Amazon.
[07:10] And and for anyone that's new to the channel, my name is Travis Marziani.
[07:12] I am a sevenfigure Amazon FBA seller.
[07:14] In fact, I think I'll show you.
[07:16] Yeah, I've done over $7 million in sales on Amazon.
[07:18] Remember, that's not all profit, but I've done a lot of profit.
[07:21] I've made millions of dollars in profit.
[07:22] And I'm not saying any of this to brag.
[07:25] There's always this conundrum when I'm telling people about how big of an opportunity this is, because I don't want to come off as like braggy of like, look how much money I've made.
[07:32] But at the same time, I want to be like, look how much freaking money I've made.
[07:33] You can do it, too.
[07:35] That's the whole reason why I share how much money I've made or how successful I've been is because it's like I'm not special.
[07:43] I I have a formula.
[07:44] I'm going to be teaching you the formula throughout this video.
[07:45] I have a formula on how I launch products.
[07:47] You can see behind me like these are some of the products that I've launched.
[07:49] I'll be grabbing these.
[07:51] These are some of my students products.
[07:52] I've taught a lot of people.
[07:53] I think I've taught over 2,000 people how to sell on Amazon.
[07:56] There's a formula on how to do this and you're going to learn that formula throughout this video.
[07:59] So, let's go back into here.
[08:01] And by the way, again, see there's always this balance when teaching things.
[08:05] This photo was taken in in Salita, Mexico.
[08:07] I actually bought a
[08:10] In Salita, Mexico.
[08:12] I actually bought a house that's on the beach in Salelo with the money that I've made cash.
[08:15] The thing about when you buy property in Mexico is you can't get a loan.
[08:17] You have to buy it cash.
[08:20] I bought cash a property in Mexico and that's freedom.
[08:22] The reason I bring this up, again, not to brag, not to whatever, it's to get you excited and show you what's possible.
[08:27] That house that I have in Mexico, I could go retire.
[08:28] I could retire right now, live on the beach in Mexico.
[08:32] Salita is a cool area.
[08:35] It's by Port of Viarda.
[08:37] And if I wanted to, I could live in paradise for the rest of my life off the money that I've made.
[08:42] Now, I'm not doing that.
[08:44] I've chose instead I I live in Santa Monica, which is also I live right across from the beach here.
[08:47] Again, don't mean to brag here, but it's just it's freaking amazing.
[08:51] My life is really cool.
[08:53] It's more cool than I ever thought.
[08:54] I'm making more money than I ever thought I would make.
[08:56] I'm living a better quality life than I ever thought I would.
[08:57] And I'm saying all this because by starting an Amazon FBA business, by starting an online business in general, you're allowed you're able to get freedom in your life.
[09:06] Now, there's a lot of different online businesses.
[09:08] Throughout this video, I'm going to be showing you why I think that Amazon FBA is the best
[09:11] why I think that Amazon FBA is the best and easiest way for a beginner to start.
[09:13] and easiest way for a beginner to start making passive income online.
[09:15] making passive income online.
[09:15] So, before we go any further, if you have not yet, hit the like button.
[09:20] And in this video, I'm going to be showing you how to sell on Amazon from beginner to expert.
[09:23] I'm going to be showing you in this video how to go from uh, you know, A to Z, step by step, beginner to expert.
[09:29] Like, literally, I'm going to be spoon feeding you everything I wish I would have known.
[09:33] So, this is what I recommend.
[09:33] This is how I recommend you guys consume this.
[09:36] What I would say is feel free to take some notes if you want, but mostly what I recommend doing is watching this video, relaxing, sitting back, and coming back.
[09:44] This is all going to be recorded, and we're going to post it on my channel.
[09:46] So, come back the second time to take notes.
[09:48] Don't stress.
[09:48] One of the most important things that I've learned when it comes to learning is relax.
[09:57] Take take your time.
[09:57] Soak in the information.
[09:59] I purposely created this entire video to be as easy to understand as possible.
[10:03] So, if there's a point where you're confused, don't worry.
[10:05] I probably did that on purpose because I'm going to be explaining later in this video how to do this.
[10:08] And right now,
[10:11] video how to do this.
[10:12] And right now, what I'm going to be doing is giving you an overview on how to sell on Amazon.
[10:14] an overview on how to sell on Amazon.
[10:16] But then I'm going to be having Connor, who who's a works with me, and Cam, who works with me, come in and we're going to be talking about everything in much more depth.
[10:19] who who's a works with me, and Cam, who works with me, come in and we're going to be talking about everything in much more depth.
[10:20] works with me, come in and we're going to be talking about everything in much more depth.
[10:21] to be talking about everything in much more depth.
[10:22] So, I'm going to give you like a fiveminute overview of how to find a product.
[10:24] like a fiveminute overview of how to find a product.
[10:25] Then, Connor's going to come in and spend an hour with you finding products live.

[10:37] how to find manufacturers.
[10:39] You can always come back if and slow it down to 0.5.
[10:42] I talk fast. I know I talk fast. So if you need to slow it down uh slow it down to 0.5.
[10:44] if you need to slow it down uh slow it down to 0.5.
[10:47] On the same hand, some people are speed learners.
[10:48] You can always come back later and put this at 2x again this first time.
[10:50] always come back later and put this at 2x again this first time.
[10:52] Sit back, relax, and let's watch this video.
[10:55] relax, and let's watch this video.
[10:57] There will be timestamps after the fact down below in the description.
[10:59] below in the description.
[11:01] So, this video is going to be everything in one place.
[11:04] is going to be everything in one place.
[11:05] It is I mean I just released a 10-hour video.
[11:07] I'll put a link to that down below. I would check that out as well.
[11:09] below. I would check that out as well.
[11:11] But, so let's talk about like how you should learn Amazon. And this is what most people are doing.
[11:12] Most people are doing.
[11:12] They're doing it the hard way.
[11:14] Most people are spending the hard way.
[11:14] Most people are spending hours by themselves, hundreds of hours trying to figure out how to make money.
[11:18] Trying to figure out how to make money.
[11:18] I was there, man.
[11:20] I was one of those people.
[11:20] I I quit my corporate job.
[11:22] I'll get into my story later, but I quit my corporate job over 10 years ago, and for years, I struggled trying to figure out how to make money online.
[11:27] I was sitting in a room by myself for eight hours a day trying to figure it out.
[11:34] Most people when trying to make money online, when trying to start an Amazon business, they make mistakes that cost them thousands of dollars.
[11:41] Most people end up struggling and maybe even giving up.
[11:44] There's a better way to to learn how to sell on Amazon.
[11:46] That's what we're going to be doing in this video.
[11:47] Here's the better way to do anything in life.
[11:49] If you want to learn something new, step one, find a mentor.
[11:50] Again, guys, doesn't have to be me.
[11:52] There is a lot of Amazon gurus out there.
[11:54] There's a lot of people teaching you.
[11:56] If you don't like my style, that's fine.
[11:58] Find someone else.
[11:59] I've met and worked with a lot of the other Amazon gurus out there.
[12:03] Uh there's one in particular, I won't say his name, who is, how do I say this, not authentic.
[12:07] Let's say that I met this guy
[12:12] authentic.
[12:15] Let's say that I met this guy and he told me that anyone, this was before he launched his program.
[12:16] He's like, "Anyone that has a program is a scammer.
[12:18] They're just trying to take people's money.
[12:19] And I'm like, "What are you talking about?"
[12:22] I've spent thousands, if not tens of thousands of my own I've spent over $10,000 of my own money taking programs, learning from people.
[12:29] Anytime I need to learn something new, I hire a coach.
[12:33] I You guys may have heard this story before, but I wanted to learn how to surf.
[12:35] I live right across from the beach.
[12:37] So, what did I do?
[12:38] I didn't just go out on my board and paddle around and try to figure it out.
[12:40] I prepaid for 10 surfing lessons, and I I hired a mentor to teach me how to surf.
[12:45] And I learned within 10 lessons.
[12:48] And I actually had tried before to learn on my own.
[12:50] It's very hard to learn how to surf on your own.
[12:52] It's much easier with a mentor.
[12:54] And let me tell you something right now.
[12:55] Starting an online business is a lot harder than learning how to surf.
[12:57] And so if you would hire a mentor to learn how to surf, why would you not hire a mentor to learn how to sell on Amazon?
[12:59] You want to be like a laser when you're trying to make money online.
[13:00] When you're trying to start a business, your goal is to be focused.
[13:02] A laser breaks through
[13:14] Focused.
[13:14] A laser breaks through barriers.
[13:16] Trying to make money online, you need to break through barriers.
[13:17] You need to be that laser.
[13:19] You need to be directly focused.
[13:21] So, what happens is a lot of people bleed out their energy by watching a bunch of free content and one day they're going to be trying drop shipping.
[13:27] And then the next day they're trying Amazon FBA and then they're trying Kindle Direct, you know, whatever.
[13:30] They're trying all these different things.
[13:31] And even if they're just trying to learn how to sell on Amazon, if you're trying to learn from 10 different gurus, then it's going to make life very difficult because one person says one thing, another says another thing.
[13:43] But when you have an Amazon program, when you join an Amazon program, when you watch a video like this, and look, you don't have to join my Amazon program.
[13:48] This is a free video.
[13:49] I'm doing this for you because I want to see you succeed.
[13:53] So, when you have all that knowledge in one place, it allows you to focus and become the laser.
[13:59] But one of the benefits of a my Amazon program, and I think a lot of other Amazon programs may have this, but I know that mine does, is you get a support network.
[14:08] You don't want to try to do this by yourself.
[14:10] I tried for years to just start my business by myself.
[14:15] Business by myself.
[14:17] I started my success, what do you call it, like hockey stick it became.
[14:20] I started having way more success as soon as I joined a mastermind.
[14:21] As soon as I started surrounding myself with other Amazon sellers.
[14:25] And that's something that we offer in the program.
[14:26] So I'm going to teach you the Amazon FBA formula.
[14:28] I call this the passion product formula.
[14:30] You'll see why I call it the passion product formula throughout this video.
[14:35] So my big question to you is, do you want my help selling on Amazon?
[14:37] If the answer is yes, obviously keep watching this.
[14:39] I want to share with you guys some people that have gone through the program.
[14:41] AJ, you may have, if you haven't seen his story, I've got videos on my channel.
[14:43] AJ first year did $600,000 revenue, $240,000 profit.
[14:45] He sells cocktail cards.
[14:47] I got actually partnered with him on this business, cocktail cards.
[14:49] It's up there.
[14:52] We got Brent.
[14:54] I've done videos with him on this channel.
[14:55] If you haven't watched, this is one of the best videos I've done.
[14:57] He's done in his first two years, he did $1.7 million in sales, $500,000 in freaking profit.
[14:59] Crazy story.
[15:01] If you don't know his story, he is a first responder or he was a first responder helicopter pilot.
[15:02] Had two kids.
[15:05] He's like, 'I don't have a'
[15:15] Had two kids.
[15:15] He's like, "I don't have a lot of time.
[15:18] I've got this great idea.
[15:20] Travis, can you help me to launch this product?
[15:21] So, I I said, "Yes, join the passion product formula.
[15:23] Join my program.
[15:26] I will help you to launch this product."
[15:28] And look at that.
[15:28] $1.7 million in sales, $500,000 in profit.
[15:32] Calvin, he's got that product up there.
[15:34] $400,000 in sales in his first year.
[15:36] $100,000 in profit.
[15:38] All right, guys.
[15:40] Let's get back into the training program.
[15:40] Does Amazon FBA still work?
[15:41] I've been talking about this at length, right?
[15:44] I I showed you guys the numbers for anyone that's new.
[15:45] Let's see again if I can show uh let's see if it's updated.
[15:50] Yeah.
[15:51] So, see if it shows up there.
[15:53] I don't know if you guys can see that.
[15:55] That's in the last 30 days.
[15:57] We we did we've done $3,300 in sales today.
[16:00] Over $90,000 in the last 30 days.
[16:01] Here's the old numbers.
[16:03] This was from I I made this PowerPoint.
[16:04] Actually, my assistant made this PowerPoint last night.
[16:06] So yeah, we did around $88,000 in revenue in the last 30 days, $45,000 in profit.
[16:12] So guys, this is a proven system.
[16:14] Here's some of the success stories you've seen
[16:15] some of the success stories you've seen on my channel.
[16:17] Let me show you guys this.
[16:20] If you if you want proof whether this works or not, go to my YouTube channel.
[16:22] Click here.
[16:25] Go into playlist.
[16:28] I try to update this all the time.
[16:32] Um, Amazon FBA success and failure stories.
[16:33] So this was actually an interesting one.
[16:36] She did.
[16:37] She was not a student.
[16:39] She watched my YouTube channel, but she didn't actually ever join my program.
[16:40] Watch that video.
[16:42] This is a good warning story.
[16:43] She talks throughout like that.
[16:45] She wish she would have joined my program.
[16:47] But look, even though I a lot of times, look, I know a lot of times these thumbnails are like failure stories, but they're actually not failures.
[16:49] If you actually watch the video, uh, most of them end up having a ton of success.
[16:51] Here's here's another student.
[16:53] First step to starting.
[16:55] This video is going viral right now.
[16:56] This is a student in my Amazon FBA program.
[16:57] Honestly, they didn't have a huge success, but they're making passive income.
[16:58] So, anyways, go here, go to this playlist.
[16:59] I've I've interviewed over 70 Amazon sellers.
[17:01] You can see that this still works, and this is a proven system.
[17:03] So, I know this is controversial.
[17:04] A lot of people are not going to like that I say this, but
[17:16] going to like that I say this, but Amazon FBA is passive income if you're doing it right.
[17:19] Amazon FBA is passive income if you're doing it right.
[17:21] Most people do it wrong.
[17:23] I'm going to tell you right now.
[17:24] I've interviewed a lot of Amazon gurus, and most people sell on Amazon the wrong way.
[17:27] We're going to be teaching you throughout this video how to sell on Amazon the right way.
[17:29] The cool thing too is you can create a business and you can sell it.
[17:33] I sold my previous Amazon business that I'll be talking about later in this video for a deal that at least at the time I thought was worth a million dollars.
[17:38] Turns out it ended up not being.
[17:41] That's a longer story, but yeah, I I I've have a lot of friends that have sold Amazon businesses for over a million dollars.
[17:44] And you can absolutely do that.
[17:46] So, let's talk about how Amazon FBA works.
[17:48] FBA stands for fulfillment by Amazon.
[17:50] This is where you send the products into the Amazon warehouse.
[17:52] So, Amazon, you've probably even seen them.
[17:53] Amazon has warehouses all over the country.
[17:57] And the reason they do this is so that they can get products delivered to Amazon customers within 2 days.
[17:59] So, the way that Amazon FBA works is you send the products into the Amazon FBA fulfillment center.
[18:01] So,
[18:18] the Amazon FBA fulfillment center.
[18:20] So, let's say I have like 2,000 units of carnivore electrolytes.
[18:21] I have my manufacturer send those 2,000 units.
[18:23] They deal with all the shipping.
[18:25] They send it into the Amazon warehouse.
[18:27] Amazon stores your product.
[18:29] When a customer purchases your product, Amazon picks packs and ships your product out and Amazon delivers it.
[18:34] So, let me let me walk you through it this way.
[18:35] If you want to buy a product of mine, I'll show you another product of mine to buy.
[18:37] Don't don't buy carnivore electrolytes.
[18:39] Instead, actually, I did I did this recently.
[18:41] Sugar-free electrolytes.
[18:43] We just recently launched this product.
[18:44] We didn't do a great job launching it.
[18:45] I'm going to put this if you guys want to try this is also this is this very similar to carnivore electrolytes.
[18:51] It's a little bit different formula, but it's uh it's just sugar-free electrolytes.
[18:53] If you guys want to try out a really cool electrolyte product, it's at a huge discount.
[18:55] Check this out.
[18:57] And the re the reason I'm saying that, okay, let let me back up.
[18:59] I'm trying to explain how Amazon FBA works.
[19:01] So, we sent a,000 units of sugar-free electrolytes into the Amazon warehouse.
[19:03] When you at home go and you click buy now, what happens is we don't do anything.
[19:04] Amazon picks, packs, and ships the products from their warehouse to you, the customer.
[19:06] It's
[19:19] warehouse to you, the customer.
[19:19] It's that freaking easy.
[19:21] Now, on the flip side, there's something called FBM, fulfilled by merchant.
[19:24] When we got an order on Amazon, we'd have to pick, pack, and ship the products out ourselves.
[19:28] And maybe that sounds funny when I say like that.
[19:29] That would just mean that we'd have to ship out the products ourselves.
[19:32] You can tell a product's Amazon FBA because it's Prime.
[19:35] So, that's one of the benefits.
[19:36] When you take advantage of the FBA program, it makes your products Prime, which makes it so you will get more sales.
[19:42] Let's talk about what I'm going to be sharing in this video and what me and my team is going to be sharing.
[19:47] I'm going to be introducing you guys in a little bit to Connor and Cam.
[19:53] They are two members of my team.
[19:55] One of my goals for this video, this is a personal goal.
[19:58] When people go to YouTube, type in Amazon FBA.
[20:02] I want this to be the top video right now.
[20:04] We have my video right here.
[20:05] This is this is a good video, too.
[20:07] I just released not that long ago.
[20:08] Check this out.
[20:10] If you if you really are curious whether it's too late to sell on Amazon, go check out this video.
[20:14] I did a 37 minute breakdown of the pros and the cons of selling on Amazon in 2025, how to avoid a lot of the pitfall falls.
[20:18] So,
[20:20] to avoid a lot of the pitfall falls. So, what I'm going to be going over in this
[20:22] what I'm going to be going over in this video is all the different Amazon
[20:24] video is all the different Amazon business models, a new Amazon
[20:25] business models, a new Amazon opportunity. You guys, you've heard me
[20:27] opportunity. You guys, you've heard me talk about passion product. You may have
[20:28] talk about passion product. You may have heard me talk about niche branding, but
[20:31] heard me talk about niche branding, but we're going to be going in depth about
[20:32] we're going to be going in depth about like the latest and greatest ways to
[20:34] like the latest and greatest ways to sell on Amazon. Private label 2.0. You
[20:36] sell on Amazon. Private label 2.0. You guys may have heard about private label.
[20:38] guys may have heard about private label. Let's talk about the new version of
[20:39] Let's talk about the new version of Private Label, new way to find products,
[20:41] Private Label, new way to find products, launch strategies, income reports,
[20:43] launch strategies, income reports, complete free course. I don't even
[20:44] complete free course. I don't even remember everything I put on here, guys.
[20:46] remember everything I put on here, guys. There's so much value that we're going
[20:47] There's so much value that we're going to be giving you in this video. We're
[20:48] to be giving you in this video. We're just getting warmed up. And the reason
[20:50] just getting warmed up. And the reason I'm doing this is because I want to give
[20:52] I'm doing this is because I want to give more value than anyone else. Like
[20:53] more value than anyone else. Like honestly, no one else gives as much free
[20:55] honestly, no one else gives as much free value as I do. I believe. Correct me if
[20:57] value as I do. I believe. Correct me if I'm wrong. In fact, leave a comment if
[20:58] I'm wrong. In fact, leave a comment if there's another person out there that
[21:00] there's another person out there that teaches Amazon that gives more free
[21:02] teaches Amazon that gives more free value. I would love to know who they are
[21:04] value. I would love to know who they are and I want to learn from them because
[21:05] and I want to learn from them because that is my number one goal is to give
[21:07] that is my number one goal is to give the most value I can. Yes, I have a
[21:10] the most value I can. Yes, I have a program. I you know how many hate
[21:12] program. I you know how many hate comments I get like, "Oh, you're just
[21:13] comments I get like, "Oh, you're just trying to scam people out of money." No.
[21:15] trying to scam people out of money." No. What are you talking about? I give more
[21:17] What are you talking about? I give more free value than anybody else. Now, what
[21:19] free value than anybody else. Now, what I've learned over and over again is
[21:21] I've learned over and over again is people that don't pay for things don't
[21:23] people that don't pay for things don't pay attention. Look at your own life
[21:24] pay attention. Look at your own life right now. You could learn everything
[21:27] right now. You could learn everything you want ever. My question to you is,
[21:29] you want ever. My question to you is, why are we not all billionaires with
[21:31] why are we not all billionaires with six-packs, right? All the information to
[21:33] six-packs, right? All the information to get a six-pack is out there. All the
[21:35] get a six-pack is out there. All the information to become a billionaire is
[21:36] information to become a billionaire is out is out there. The reason we're not
[21:39] out is out there. The reason we're not having success, and this is something
[21:40] having success, and this is something I'm trying to change in 2025, the reason
[21:42] I'm trying to change in 2025, the reason we're not having more success is because
[21:44] we're not having more success is because we're not actually paying attention. And
[21:46] we're not actually paying attention. And so, how do you get the human brain to
[21:48] so, how do you get the human brain to pay attention? This is a hack. This is
[21:50] pay attention? This is a hack. This is this is the highest level hack. What
[21:52] this is the highest level hack. What I've learned is you need to hack your
[21:54] I've learned is you need to hack your brain. You need to figure out how to
[21:56] brain. You need to figure out how to make yourself pay attention. And one of
[21:58] make yourself pay attention. And one of the best ways to do that is by paying a
[22:00] the best ways to do that is by paying a little bit of money to incentivize that
[22:02] little bit of money to incentivize that human brain of yours to focus. And so,
[22:05] human brain of yours to focus. And so, that's what I do. I have private
[22:07] that's what I do. I have private one-on-one coaches for all kinds of
[22:09] one-on-one coaches for all kinds of things. I have a personal trainer now.
[22:11] things. I have a personal trainer now. And look, do you need a personal
[22:12] And look, do you need a personal trainer? No. But I'm getting better
[22:14] trainer? No. But I'm getting better results because and and obviously I'm
[22:16] results because and and obviously I'm making enough money that it justifies
[22:18] making enough money that it justifies doing that. I showed you guys. Again,
[22:20] doing that. I showed you guys. Again, I'm kind of giddy. I I hope it doesn't
[22:22] I'm kind of giddy. I I hope it doesn't come across as braggy. I'm very giddy to
[22:25] come across as braggy. I'm very giddy to see how much money this Amazon business
[22:27] see how much money this Amazon business is doing. And here's the secret. Let me
[22:29] is doing. And here's the secret. Let me show you guys something. Carnivore

[26:30] online business. You can hire virtual assistants in the Philippines for like
[26:32] assistants in the Philippines for like three, four, $5 an hour to run your

[26:45] people in the Philippines or other you can get people to run it for you for
[26:46] can get people to run it for you for very inexpensive. So, my goal when I

[27:23] goals. My new goal, and I'm pretty close. I'll probably hit this in the
[27:24] close. I'll probably hit this in the next year or two, is to have $5 million
[27:26] next year or two, is to have $5 million in assets, including cash, stocks, real
[27:30] in assets, including cash, stocks, real estate. $5 million to me is like enough
[27:32] estate. $5 million to me is like enough money that you'll never have to work
[27:33] money that you'll never have to work again for money in your life, and you
[27:35] again for money in your life, and you could basically uh live off the interest
[27:37] could basically uh live off the interest and live fat, live really good off the
[27:39] and live fat, live really good off the interest. But uh anyways, I quit my
[27:42] interest. But uh anyways, I quit my corporate job. I started a dance
[27:43] corporate job. I started a dance clothing company with my mom. We weren't
[27:46] clothing company with my mom. We weren't selling on Amazon originally. We had our

[27:54] some booty shorts, go to bdancer.com. Get yourself some booty shorts. But I
[27:56] Get yourself some booty shorts. But I struggled. I struggled with this cuz,
[27:59] struggled. I struggled with this cuz, you know, when I read the 4-hour work
[28:00] you know, when I read the 4-hour work week, I was like, "All right, I want to

[28:15] 500,000 600 maybe maybe we did close to a million. We had 14 employees but it
[28:18] a million. We had 14 employees but it wasn't very profitable because we were

[28:57] the slides. Yeah. Here, here's the story of that. I didn't have a lot of money to
[28:58] of that. I didn't have a lot of money to start this company. So, I raised $14,000
[29:02] start this company. So, I raised $14,000 using Kickstarter. And we'll be talking
[29:04] using Kickstarter. And we'll be talking about this later in this video, guys.

[29:09] still create your own passion product. You can still sell on Amazon if you
[29:10] You can still sell on Amazon if you follow my formula, by doing a
[29:12] follow my formula, by doing a Kickstarter by doing some kind of
[29:14] Kickstarter by doing some kind of crowdfunding. Basically, with this, what
[29:16] crowdfunding. Basically, with this, what happens is people prepay you for the
[29:19] happens is people prepay you for the products that you're going to be
[29:20] products that you're going to be selling. So, what I did is I cashed out
[29:22] selling. So, what I did is I cashed out my 401k. I put every last drop of energy
[29:24] my 401k. I put every last drop of energy savings, everything I had into this
[29:26] savings, everything I had into this business. I launched this product on
[29:28] business. I launched this product on Amazon, Performance Nut Butter, and
[29:30] Amazon, Performance Nut Butter, and within two months, I was doing I was
[29:32] within two months, I was doing I was making $300 a day in profit. Within two
[29:35] making $300 a day in profit. Within two freaking months, that's how quickly my
[29:38] freaking months, that's how quickly my life changed. And that's why I talk
[29:40] life changed. And that's why I talk about this. People are always, it
[29:41] about this. People are always, it bothers me so much. People are always
[29:42] bothers me so much. People are always like, "Oh, all those YouTube gurus,
[29:45] like, "Oh, all those YouTube gurus, they're just a bunch of scammers." It's
[29:46] they're just a bunch of scammers." It's like, "What are you talking about? I

[29:58] slides, Brent and AJ, these are people whose lives I'm I'm looking right I wish
[30:00] whose lives I'm I'm looking right I wish I could show you guys right now, but I'm

[30:08] right behind the camera of people that have had success with my program. And
[30:11] have had success with my program. And when I get a little bit sad, when I get
[30:12] when I get a little bit sad, when I get a little bit depressed, when I feel like
[30:14] a little bit depressed, when I feel like what I'm doing here on YouTube isn't
[30:16] what I'm doing here on YouTube isn't helping anyone, I look at that and it
[30:18] helping anyone, I look at that and it reminds me people's lives are changing
[30:20] reminds me people's lives are changing because I'm sharing with them this
[30:21] because I'm sharing with them this information. And again, I'm not saying
[30:23] information. And again, I'm not saying I'm special. What I'm saying is this way
[30:25] I'm special. What I'm saying is this way of making money online is special and no
[30:27] of making money online is special and no one else is really talking about it. So,
[30:28] one else is really talking about it. So, I have to be the one to share it. So,
[30:31] I have to be the one to share it. So, let's keep going here. Yeah, this was
[30:33] let's keep going here. Yeah, this was three years worth of income with
[30:34] three years worth of income with performance nut butter. Again, this
[30:35] performance nut butter. Again, this number is actually higher. It's 1.3
[30:37] number is actually higher. It's 1.3 million. And this should be $400,000,
[30:39] million. And this should be $400,000, but whatever. In three years, I made
[30:40] but whatever. In three years, I made over $400,000 profit. And I did that
[30:43] over $400,000 profit. And I did that while traveling the the world. That's
[30:46] while traveling the the world. That's the cool thing. Again, guys, this isn't
[30:48] the cool thing. Again, guys, this isn't to brag, but like I don't work that
[30:51] to brag, but like I don't work that hard. You know, maybe compared to some
[30:52] hard. You know, maybe compared to some people, I work hard. I don't know. I'm

[31:00] Slack, check some emails, make sure everything's going. This can be you. I'm
[31:03] everything's going. This can be you. I'm not special. That's why I talk so much
[31:05] not special. That's why I talk so much about this is there's nothing special
[31:07] about this is there's nothing special about me. And and the goal, this is
[31:10] about me. And and the goal, this is supposed to be your Amazon map. My goal,

[31:16] I don't know, this is really goofy. Um, my goal is to give you the map, to give
[31:17] my goal is to give you the map, to give you the formula. The the analogy that I
[31:19] you the formula. The the analogy that I always like to use is if you're climbing
[31:21] always like to use is if you're climbing a treacherous mountain. Let's say you're
[31:23] a treacherous mountain. Let's say you're going to uh cl climb to the top of Mount
[31:26] going to uh cl climb to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro or whatever, you can maybe
[31:29] Kilimanjaro or whatever, you can maybe do it by yourself, but wouldn't it be
[31:30] do it by yourself, but wouldn't it be safer and smarter to do it with a guide?
[31:33] safer and smarter to do it with a guide? And if you're going to do it by
[31:34] And if you're going to do it by yourself, you better use a freaking map,
[31:36] yourself, you better use a freaking map, you know? And so I'm going to give you
[31:37] you know? And so I'm going to give you the map or if you want extra help, I'm
[31:39] the map or if you want extra help, I'm going to hold your hand and help you.
[31:41] going to hold your hand and help you. Again, link down below in the
[31:43] Again, link down below in the description. All right, so what are we
[31:45] description. All right, so what are we going to be talking about? We got a long
[31:47] going to be talking about? We got a long This is going to be a really fun day
[31:48] This is going to be a really fun day together that we have. We're going to
[31:49] together that we have. We're going to show you how to find a product, how to
[31:50] show you how to find a product, how to make a brand, how to find a
[31:51] make a brand, how to find a manufacturer, create a listing, launch a
[31:53] manufacturer, create a listing, launch a product. Let me show you guys. You guys
[31:54] product. Let me show you guys. You guys may have seen this before in my videos.
[31:56] may have seen this before in my videos. There's four main ways to sell on
[31:58] There's four main ways to sell on Amazon. Retail arbitrage, wholesale,
[31:59] Amazon. Retail arbitrage, wholesale, private label, or creating your own
[32:00] private label, or creating your own product. Retail arbitrage is where you
[32:03] product. Retail arbitrage is where you buy items that are on discount, flip
[32:06] buy items that are on discount, flip them on Amazon. One thing you can do is
[32:07] them on Amazon. One thing you can do is you can go to the clearance section in
[32:08] you can go to the clearance section in Walmart and you find products that are
[32:10] Walmart and you find products that are at a deep discount. Um, let's see. Would
[32:14] at a deep discount. Um, let's see. Would be a good one.
[32:17] be a good one. All right, maybe this would be
[32:18] All right, maybe this would be interesting. So, this is being sold for
[32:21] interesting. So, this is being sold for $649.
[32:23] $649. Let's see if we can see how much this
[32:24] Let's see if we can see how much this exact same product is being sold for on
[32:26] exact same product is being sold for on Amazon.com.
[32:33] I don't know if this product is being
[32:34] I don't know if this product is being sold on Amazon. Well, that there's an
[32:36] sold on Amazon. Well, that there's an opportunity right there. You could buy
[32:37] opportunity right there. You could buy this product and sell it on Amazon for
[32:40] this product and sell it on Amazon for the full retail price and make a profit
[32:42] the full retail price and make a profit because no one else is selling it. So
[32:43] because no one else is selling it. So retail arbitrage is finding things that
[32:45] retail arbitrage is finding things that are in a discount. So this is normally
[32:46] are in a discount. So this is normally $25, buying it for the $649 and just
[32:49] $25, buying it for the $649 and just flipping it. And the cool thing is you
[32:51] flipping it. And the cool thing is you could buy one of these, you could buy 10
[32:52] could buy one of these, you could buy 10 of these, you could buy 50 of these.
[32:53] of these, you could buy 50 of these. Probably couldn't buy a thousand.
[32:54] Probably couldn't buy a thousand. There's probably a limit on how many you
[32:56] There's probably a limit on how many you can buy. So that's the first way to sell
[32:58] can buy. So that's the first way to sell on Amazon. Next one is wholesale. And
[33:02] on Amazon. Next one is wholesale. And this is where you buy items with a
[33:04] this is where you buy items with a wholesale discount. So you you email a
[33:06] wholesale discount. So you you email a company like Nike and you say, "Hey, I
[33:07] company like Nike and you say, "Hey, I want to buy a hundred of your shoes and
[33:09] want to buy a hundred of your shoes and you can buy them for half off, sell them
[33:11] you can buy them for half off, sell them on Amazon." Boom. And then we, you know,
[33:13] on Amazon." Boom. And then we, you know, if you look at Nike shoes. So Nike
[33:16] if you look at Nike shoes. So Nike shoes. Let's just take an example of a
[33:18] shoes. Let's just take an example of a shoe here. Those are definitely not Nike
[33:20] shoe here. Those are definitely not Nike shoes. Timberland Pro. These $108 or
[33:24] shoes. Timberland Pro. These $108 or these are $144. You can buy these
[33:25] these are $144. You can buy these directly for Amazon for half off using a
[33:27] directly for Amazon for half off using a wholesale discount and flip them. Yeah,
[33:28] wholesale discount and flip them. Yeah, private label. We've talked about this
[33:30] private label. We've talked about this before, guys. If you have questions on
[33:32] before, guys. If you have questions on this, I've got so many videos on this. I
[33:33] this, I've got so many videos on this. I don't want to go into detail about this,
[33:35] don't want to go into detail about this, but yeah, the best way to create a
[33:37] but yeah, the best way to create a product is what I teach and I got so
[33:40] product is what I teach and I got so many videos going over the pros and
[33:41] many videos going over the pros and cons. Don't take my word for it. Go

[35:37] have Connor, who's on my team and helps me find products on Amazon, show you how
[35:39] me find products on Amazon, show you how to find products on Amazon. We're about
[35:41] to find products on Amazon. We're about to take a deep dive on how to do product
[35:43] to take a deep dive on how to do product research yourself. Usually it trips a
[35:45] research yourself. Usually it trips a lot of people up and it's one of the
[35:46] lot of people up and it's one of the things that stops people from having
[35:47] things that stops people from having success on Amazon. They get too
[35:49] success on Amazon. They get too overwhelmed with it. But the thing about
[35:50] overwhelmed with it. But the thing about product research is it doesn't have to
[35:52] product research is it doesn't have to be overwhelming if you approach it in
[35:54] be overwhelming if you approach it in the right way. It can actually be
[35:56] the right way. It can actually be something easy can be very fun to go
[35:58] something easy can be very fun to go through product research and find cool
[36:00] through product research and find cool ideas and put your creativity to work.
[36:02] ideas and put your creativity to work. Put your passions to work and come up
[36:04] Put your passions to work and come up with a product that you can be proud to
[36:06] with a product that you can be proud to sell. There's not only one method to
[36:08] sell. There's not only one method to make a great product on Amazon. There
[36:09] make a great product on Amazon. There are in our opinion seven that we use and
[36:12] are in our opinion seven that we use and you can use one of these seven. you can
[36:13] you can use one of these seven. you can combine these seven and I'm going to
[36:15] combine these seven and I'm going to break down what exactly each one of
[36:16] break down what exactly each one of these seven are today. How you can use
[36:19] these seven are today. How you can use them and utilize them the best to have
[36:21] them and utilize them the best to have success on Amazon. So just going through
[36:24] success on Amazon. So just going through here, we have the keyword method, we
[36:25] here, we have the keyword method, we have the bestseller method, we have
[36:27] have the bestseller method, we have blackbox, we have cerebro, we have the
[36:29] blackbox, we have cerebro, we have the search bar method, we have Google trends
[36:31] search bar method, we have Google trends in the keyword planner and a bonus one
[36:33] in the keyword planner and a bonus one I'll talk about right there. And then
[36:34] I'll talk about right there. And then finally we have starting a passion
[36:36] finally we have starting a passion product. So let's dive in here a little
[36:39] product. So let's dive in here a little bit. Let's start off with the keyword
[36:40] bit. Let's start off with the keyword method right here. So, Amazon is a
[36:43] method right here. So, Amazon is a search engine at its core, right? People
[36:46] search engine at its core, right? People go to Amazon to search for when they
[36:47] go to Amazon to search for when they want a product. And because of that,
[36:49] want a product. And because of that, Amazon is going to give you the
[36:50] Amazon is going to give you the information to search. So, right here,
[36:52] information to search. So, right here, we can see we're typing in the keyword
[36:54] we can see we're typing in the keyword keto nut butter. This is a keyword we're
[36:57] keto nut butter. This is a keyword we're putting in the search bar. And if I was
[36:59] putting in the search bar. And if I was launching a keto nut butter or like
[37:00] launching a keto nut butter or like Travis did with performance nut butter,
[37:02] Travis did with performance nut butter, this could be a keyword that someone is
[37:04] this could be a keyword that someone is searching for. So, our goal is to look
[37:06] searching for. So, our goal is to look for keywords that people are searching
[37:08] for keywords that people are searching for. What I recommend, what's going to
[37:09] for. What I recommend, what's going to help you a lot for this product research
[37:11] help you a lot for this product research section is signing up for Helium 10.
[37:14] section is signing up for Helium 10. Helium 10 is basically a massive
[37:16] Helium 10 is basically a massive database that's going to give you all
[37:18] database that's going to give you all the tools to do product research. They
[37:19] the tools to do product research. They take all the data from Amazon. They pass
[37:21] take all the data from Amazon. They pass it through and they're going to give it
[37:23] it through and they're going to give it back to you in the most effective way.
[37:25] back to you in the most effective way. So, when you're searching and you're
[37:27] So, when you're searching and you're trying to find an idea, Helium 10 is
[37:29] trying to find an idea, Helium 10 is basically going to be able to tell you
[37:30] basically going to be able to tell you if it's a good idea or not based on the
[37:32] if it's a good idea or not based on the tools that we'll be using today. So, if
[37:34] tools that we'll be using today. So, if you already signed up, I recommend that
[37:35] you already signed up, I recommend that you go over to h10code.com.
[37:38] you go over to h10code.com. That's h10code.com.
[37:40] That's h10code.com. You can click on this link right here in
[37:41] You can click on this link right here in the description, too, and use our code
[37:43] the description, too, and use our code right there. There's a 7-day money back
[37:44] right there. There's a 7-day money back guarantee, but this is going to help out
[37:46] guarantee, but this is going to help out a lot for finding your product. Again,
[37:48] a lot for finding your product. Again, your product is the foundation of your
[37:50] your product is the foundation of your entire business. If you choose a good
[37:51] entire business. If you choose a good product, it can be smooth sailing from
[37:53] product, it can be smooth sailing from there. If you choose a bad product, it's
[37:55] there. If you choose a bad product, it's an uphill battle. So, Helium 10 is like
[37:57] an uphill battle. So, Helium 10 is like what? It can be 50 bucks a month, but I
[37:59] what? It can be 50 bucks a month, but I in my opinion it's a worthy investment
[38:01] in my opinion it's a worthy investment to make considering how important
[38:02] to make considering how important choosing a good product is for your
[38:04] choosing a good product is for your business. All right, so now once we go
[38:06] business. All right, so now once we go over to Helium 10, basically we'll be
[38:07] over to Helium 10, basically we'll be using a tool called the magnet tool. The
[38:09] using a tool called the magnet tool. The magnet tool is one of my favorite tools
[38:11] magnet tool is one of my favorite tools in Helium 10. And once you go over
[38:13] in Helium 10. And once you go over there, you're able to enter in a keyword
[38:15] there, you're able to enter in a keyword from Amazon right there and it will show
[38:17] from Amazon right there and it will show you. So, we're going to go ahead and
[38:19] you. So, we're going to go ahead and navigate over to Helium 10 just so I can
[38:21] navigate over to Helium 10 just so I can break down exactly how this works. We're
[38:22] break down exactly how this works. We're going to navigate over to the tools
[38:24] going to navigate over to the tools section and magnet tool. And I'm going
[38:26] section and magnet tool. And I'm going to get started with the keyword here.
[38:27] to get started with the keyword here. But to start us off, we're just going to
[38:29] But to start us off, we're just going to go off of life straws. So let's go ahead
[38:31] go off of life straws. So let's go ahead and type in lifestraws right here. And
[38:33] and type in lifestraws right here. And we're hit get keywords. Now once it
[38:35] we're hit get keywords. Now once it loads, we're going to set some filters
[38:37] loads, we're going to set some filters on this. The first thing is search
[38:39] on this. The first thing is search volume. I don't want to see any keywords
[38:40] volume. I don't want to see any keywords that have less than 300 searches a
[38:42] that have less than 300 searches a month. So we're going to set this as the
[38:44] month. So we're going to set this as the parameter. Above 300 searches a month, I
[38:47] parameter. Above 300 searches a month, I can have a successful product that will
[38:48] can have a successful product that will get sales. So that's really important.
[38:50] get sales. So that's really important. The second thing is I'm looking for
[38:52] The second thing is I'm looking for products that have a magnet IQ score at
[38:54] products that have a magnet IQ score at least three times above the search
[38:56] least three times above the search volume. So if a product has a search
[38:58] volume. So if a product has a search volume of 300, I want to make sure that
[39:00] volume of 300, I want to make sure that the magnet IQ score is at least three
[39:02] the magnet IQ score is at least three times above it. The magnet IQ score is
[39:04] times above it. The magnet IQ score is essentially taking how much search
[39:06] essentially taking how much search volume there is versus how much
[39:07] volume there is versus how much competition there is. So the higher the
[39:10] competition there is. So the higher the magnet IQ score relative to the search
[39:12] magnet IQ score relative to the search volume, the uh lower the competition
[39:15] volume, the uh lower the competition there is for that keyword. Finally, the
[39:16] there is for that keyword. Finally, the next thing you're going to want to look
[39:17] next thing you're going to want to look at is word count. We want things that
[39:19] at is word count. We want things that fall between two and five words for
[39:21] fall between two and five words for keywords. That keeps them from being too
[39:22] keywords. That keeps them from being too generic and too specific. We'll keep it
[39:24] generic and too specific. We'll keep it within there. And the other thing we'll
[39:26] within there. And the other thing we'll have to look out for is brand names. So,
[39:28] have to look out for is brand names. So, for instance, if Nike came up as a
[39:31] for instance, if Nike came up as a product, Nike shoes, right? We can't
[39:33] product, Nike shoes, right? We can't sell Nike shoes. We can't manufacture
[39:35] sell Nike shoes. We can't manufacture our own Nike shoes. So, that's not a
[39:37] our own Nike shoes. So, that's not a product that we can create. We're
[39:39] product that we can create. We're looking for generic products. So, if we
[39:41] looking for generic products. So, if we see a brand name coming up again and
[39:43] see a brand name coming up again and again, that's when we go over to exclude
[39:45] again, that's when we go over to exclude phrases and make sure we exclude Nike in
[39:47] phrases and make sure we exclude Nike in this case. But let's apply filters right
[39:49] this case. But let's apply filters right here. And we're going to go ahead and
[39:51] here. And we're going to go ahead and see what is coming up for this right
[39:53] see what is coming up for this right here. So, let's start scrolling through
[39:55] here. So, let's start scrolling through and see what we see. Now, you're going
[39:56] and see what we see. Now, you're going to see a lot of keywords. Most of them
[39:58] to see a lot of keywords. Most of them aren't going to be good. And that's the
[40:00] aren't going to be good. And that's the thing about finding products on Amazon.
[40:02] thing about finding products on Amazon. If it was easy to find, everyone would
[40:04] If it was easy to find, everyone would find it. The fun in it is digging
[40:06] find it. The fun in it is digging through and when you find that one idea,
[40:08] through and when you find that one idea, that little piece of treasure in the
[40:10] that little piece of treasure in the middle of the hay stack, that's what
[40:11] middle of the hay stack, that's what we're looking for right here. So, it can
[40:13] we're looking for right here. So, it can take a minute and that can be a good
[40:14] take a minute and that can be a good thing. So, scrolling through right here,
[40:16] thing. So, scrolling through right here, we see a few interesting things. We see
[40:18] we see a few interesting things. We see live tent. We see homestead supplies.
[40:20] live tent. We see homestead supplies. This is interesting. I still think we
[40:22] This is interesting. I still think we could find a better keyword than this.
[40:23] could find a better keyword than this. So, let's keep scrolling. This is very
[40:25] So, let's keep scrolling. This is very interesting. Right here, it says nuclear
[40:27] interesting. Right here, it says nuclear war survival kit. Very interesting.
[40:29] war survival kit. Very interesting. Right here, we can see it has a search
[40:31] Right here, we can see it has a search volume of 300 and a magnet IQ score of
[40:34] volume of 300 and a magnet IQ score of 2,000. So, nearly nine times the magnet
[40:38] 2,000. So, nearly nine times the magnet IQ scores the search volume, which tells
[40:39] IQ scores the search volume, which tells us there's not too much competition for
[40:42] us there's not too much competition for this keyword. Now, if we look over here,
[40:44] this keyword. Now, if we look over here, the CPR is another thing we want to keep
[40:46] the CPR is another thing we want to keep our eye on. The CPR basically means how
[40:48] our eye on. The CPR basically means how many sales do you need in 8 days of
[40:51] many sales do you need in 8 days of selling the product in order to rank on
[40:54] selling the product in order to rank on the first half of the first page. So,
[40:56] the first half of the first page. So, for this one, eight is the lowest number
[40:57] for this one, eight is the lowest number they'll ever show you. So, this means we
[40:59] they'll ever show you. So, this means we need eight sales in an 8 day period to
[41:01] need eight sales in an 8 day period to rank on the first half of the first
[41:03] rank on the first half of the first page. So, basically, one sale a day. So,
[41:05] page. So, basically, one sale a day. So, that's a keyword that should be pretty
[41:06] that's a keyword that should be pretty easy to rank on. What is the minimum
[41:08] easy to rank on. What is the minimum search volume you need to uh make enough
[41:11] search volume you need to uh make enough money for a product on Amazon? Is 300
[41:13] money for a product on Amazon? Is 300 too low? And honestly, I like 300
[41:15] too low? And honestly, I like 300 because it's a great starting place. 300
[41:18] because it's a great starting place. 300 searches a month for keyword can
[41:19] searches a month for keyword can definitely make you decent money on
[41:20] definitely make you decent money on Amazon. And the thing about it too is
[41:23] Amazon. And the thing about it too is this is just for one keyword right here,
[41:25] this is just for one keyword right here, right? For if you're making a nuclear
[41:26] right? For if you're making a nuclear war survival kit, you likely will be
[41:29] war survival kit, you likely will be ranking on more than just one keyword
[41:30] ranking on more than just one keyword and you'll stack those keywords. So
[41:32] and you'll stack those keywords. So there could be several adjacent keywords
[41:34] there could be several adjacent keywords that are also getting 100, 200, 300, 400
[41:37] that are also getting 100, 200, 300, 400 searches a month, and you can stack
[41:39] searches a month, and you can stack those up. And actually, inside our
[41:41] those up. And actually, inside our course, we'll have a little workbook
[41:43] course, we'll have a little workbook where you can put in all the keywords
[41:44] where you can put in all the keywords you'll think you rank on, what position
[41:46] you'll think you rank on, what position you'll think you'll rank on, and it will
[41:48] you'll think you'll rank on, and it will estimate how many sales you'll make on
[41:50] estimate how many sales you'll make on Amazon. So that's a great little
[41:51] Amazon. So that's a great little resource that you'll get if you join the
[41:53] resource that you'll get if you join the program that can be very helpful to
[41:54] program that can be very helpful to actually understanding how many sales
[41:56] actually understanding how many sales are you going to make on something if
[41:57] are you going to make on something if you launch it. Now, the final thing that
[41:59] you launch it. Now, the final thing that we can see to see about this is just
[42:01] we can see to see about this is just giving it the eye test. By clicking on
[42:03] giving it the eye test. By clicking on this button right here, we can pull up
[42:05] this button right here, we can pull up what do the results look like on Amazon.
[42:06] what do the results look like on Amazon. Is anybody selling something like this?
[42:09] Is anybody selling something like this? Now, I can see several kits up here.
[42:11] Now, I can see several kits up here. This is an emergency survival backpack,
[42:13] This is an emergency survival backpack, but none of these are specifically
[42:15] but none of these are specifically geared towards this keyword of a nuclear
[42:18] geared towards this keyword of a nuclear war survival kit. So, what if we took
[42:20] war survival kit. So, what if we took something like this and niched it down
[42:22] something like this and niched it down and created a more nuclear war theme to
[42:25] and created a more nuclear war theme to it? added like some nuclear symbols,
[42:27] it? added like some nuclear symbols, warning symbols on it. Um, made some
[42:29] warning symbols on it. Um, made some things that are a little bit more niche
[42:30] things that are a little bit more niche down. Niching down is a big secret to
[42:32] down. Niching down is a big secret to Amazon. As Travis was mentioning earlier
[42:34] Amazon. As Travis was mentioning earlier with our product, Carnivore
[42:35] with our product, Carnivore Electrolytes, if we went out and just
[42:37] Electrolytes, if we went out and just launched a generic electrolyte product,
[42:40] launched a generic electrolyte product, we would have been competing with lots
[42:42] we would have been competing with lots and lots of sellers, so many other
[42:44] and lots of sellers, so many other electrolyte blends, but we created a
[42:45] electrolyte blends, but we created a product that was perfect for people that
[42:47] product that was perfect for people that were on the carnivore diet, which is a
[42:49] were on the carnivore diet, which is a very niche audience, right? But nobody
[42:52] very niche audience, right? But nobody was targeting that audience yet. So, we
[42:54] was targeting that audience yet. So, we were able to take a generic product,
[42:56] were able to take a generic product, niche down the product and the branding
[42:58] niche down the product and the branding and enter a brand new market and able to
[43:00] and enter a brand new market and able to reap the rewards of that. So, that's
[43:02] reap the rewards of that. So, that's something to really think about when
[43:04] something to really think about when you're going through Amazon. Let's keep
[43:05] you're going through Amazon. Let's keep going. Lifestraw again, Lifestraw
[43:07] going. Lifestraw again, Lifestraw specifically is a trademarked name. It's
[43:10] specifically is a trademarked name. It's a brand. So, we can't sell anything
[43:12] a brand. So, we can't sell anything that's targeted towards a life straw or
[43:14] that's targeted towards a life straw or create our new product, emergency water
[43:16] create our new product, emergency water straw, whereas this is is as a generic
[43:19] straw, whereas this is is as a generic product and we could create that um and
[43:20] product and we could create that um and target a keyword like this. And that's
[43:22] target a keyword like this. And that's actually pretty decent results right
[43:24] actually pretty decent results right here. CPR of 26. So, it's a little bit
[43:26] here. CPR of 26. So, it's a little bit harder to rank for this. But the
[43:27] harder to rank for this. But the magnetic Q score relative to the search
[43:29] magnetic Q score relative to the search volume is very high just to give
[43:30] volume is very high just to give something completely different and get
[43:31] something completely different and get off the camping theme. We're going to go
[43:33] off the camping theme. We're going to go with tallow. Now, tallow is super
[43:34] with tallow. Now, tallow is super interesting. I do see the trend right
[43:36] interesting. I do see the trend right now of tallow rising. People are talking
[43:38] now of tallow rising. People are talking about beef tallow and thinking about
[43:40] about beef tallow and thinking about removing seed oils from their cooking.
[43:42] removing seed oils from their cooking. Let's again put those same filters we
[43:44] Let's again put those same filters we did a second ago. 300 search volume,
[43:46] did a second ago. 300 search volume, magnet IQ score of 900. Um, word count
[43:50] magnet IQ score of 900. Um, word count again between two and five. And let's go
[43:52] again between two and five. And let's go ahead and apply these filters to see
[43:54] ahead and apply these filters to see what exactly comes up here. Cool. Well,
[43:57] what exactly comes up here. Cool. Well, Tallow itself, you can see the results.
[43:59] Tallow itself, you can see the results. This is a very, very big keyword. Lots
[44:01] This is a very, very big keyword. Lots of search volume, lots of competition,
[44:03] of search volume, lots of competition, high CPR. you would need 83 sales within
[44:05] high CPR. you would need 83 sales within 8 days to rank on that first half of
[44:07] 8 days to rank on that first half of that first page. So, tallow itself I
[44:09] that first page. So, tallow itself I wouldn't recommend going into, but let's
[44:11] wouldn't recommend going into, but let's see if we can find some interesting
[44:12] see if we can find some interesting things right here at the top. Wagu fat,
[44:15] things right here at the top. Wagu fat, we can see search volume of 332, magnet
[44:18] we can see search volume of 332, magnet Q score of almost over 20 times that.
[44:20] Q score of almost over 20 times that. That's that's huge. CPR of only eight.
[44:23] That's that's huge. CPR of only eight. This looks great. Imagine you could
[44:24] This looks great. Imagine you could probably stack up some other keywords on
[44:26] probably stack up some other keywords on top of that to really get some great
[44:28] top of that to really get some great results there. So, that's something
[44:30] results there. So, that's something interesting if that's what you're
[44:31] interesting if that's what you're interested in going for there. Let's
[44:32] interested in going for there. Let's keep scrolling through and see. what we
[44:34] keep scrolling through and see. what we see um duck fat spray for cooking 400
[44:37] see um duck fat spray for cooking 400 search volume 6,000 magnet IQ score that
[44:41] search volume 6,000 magnet IQ score that is huge this this market if anybody's
[44:43] is huge this this market if anybody's looking at this and has a connect with a
[44:45] looking at this and has a connect with a manufacturer if this is what they're

[46:44] the best sellers of all these platforms. Now, these products are probably pretty
[46:46] Now, these products are probably pretty highly established. I see Stanley Cup.
[46:48] highly established. I see Stanley Cup. That's a big brand right there. We
[46:49] That's a big brand right there. We aren't going to be able to compete with
[46:50] aren't going to be able to compete with them. We see lots and lots of products
[46:52] them. We see lots and lots of products that are very established. But something
[46:55] that are very established. But something else we can do is we can move over to
[46:57] else we can do is we can move over to new releases right here. So this will
[46:59] new releases right here. So this will show us products that have released
[47:00] show us products that have released recently in the last 60 days that are
[47:03] recently in the last 60 days that are selling well. So these are products that
[47:05] selling well. So these are products that were able to launch recently and still
[47:07] were able to launch recently and still find success. So these are products that
[47:09] find success. So these are products that are likely to be able to be in
[47:12] are likely to be able to be in infiltrated markets. Could be that
[47:14] infiltrated markets. Could be that there's trends that are on their way up
[47:15] there's trends that are on their way up and could be potential for us. So let's
[47:17] and could be potential for us. So let's scroll here and see what we see. We can
[47:19] scroll here and see what we see. We can sort by category here. We can see home
[47:21] sort by category here. We can see home and kitchen. Very interesting. This is
[47:22] and kitchen. Very interesting. This is Christmas related. I'm going to skip
[47:23] Christmas related. I'm going to skip that. Again, we don't really like
[47:25] that. Again, we don't really like seasonal products here. We like to focus
[47:27] seasonal products here. We like to focus on things that are going to be evergreen
[47:29] on things that are going to be evergreen and sell yearround. So, let's keep
[47:32] and sell yearround. So, let's keep scrolling through here. Um, you know, I
[47:34] scrolling through here. Um, you know, I don't I'm not sure I'm going to love
[47:35] don't I'm not sure I'm going to love these categories. So, let's go into
[47:36] these categories. So, let's go into something else. Let's go into pet
[47:37] something else. Let's go into pet supplies right here. I love pet
[47:38] supplies right here. I love pet supplies. And and we're still in the new

[47:57] here um that is let's see um 54 reviews and it has we can see it sold over 600
[48:01] and it has we can see it sold over 600 in the past month. So that's really
[48:03] in the past month. So that's really good. Um especially if you can see it
[48:05] good. Um especially if you can see it sold 600 plus. We can do that times
[48:07] sold 600 plus. We can do that times they're selling it about $10. They made
[48:08] they're selling it about $10. They made over $6,000 selling this product in the
[48:10] over $6,000 selling this product in the past month. Not too bad. And especially
[48:13] past month. Not too bad. And especially when you add up the 100 count and the
[48:15] when you add up the 100 count and the 150 count they could be doing big
[48:16] 150 count they could be doing big numbers on these two. And this could
[48:18] numbers on these two. And this could actually be a pretty profitable product.
[48:20] actually be a pretty profitable product. Let's navigate back here one more so we
[48:22] Let's navigate back here one more so we can find a couple more products to show
[48:24] can find a couple more products to show you. Let's do another category real
[48:26] you. Let's do another category real quick so I can show you something
[48:27] quick so I can show you something completely different. Let's see. Is
[48:29] completely different. Let's see. Is there a sports and outdoors? Let's do

[48:38] it's definitely very interesting to see. Uh let's see what else. USB pedometer.
[48:42] Uh let's see what else. USB pedometer. Interesting. Let's see this right here.
[48:44] Interesting. Let's see this right here. They've done over a thousand sales in
[48:46] They've done over a thousand sales in the past month at $15 means they've done
[48:49] the past month at $15 means they've done $15,000
[48:50] $15,000 in sales in just the past month. But
[48:52] in sales in just the past month. But with Helium 10, you can see the demand
[48:54] with Helium 10, you can see the demand year round. And that's another thing I
[48:55] year round. And that's another thing I can show you back in Helium 10 on one of
[48:57] can show you back in Helium 10 on one of these keywords. Something we didn't
[48:58] these keywords. Something we didn't really mention too much. If we look at
[49:01] really mention too much. If we look at the search volume right here and we
[49:03] the search volume right here and we click this button, we can see the trend.
[49:04] click this button, we can see the trend. So, this is trending up right now. the
[49:06] So, this is trending up right now. the duck fat. Possibly people making New
[49:08] duck fat. Possibly people making New Year's resolutions and wanting to switch
[49:11] Year's resolutions and wanting to switch and get rid of uh seed oils or something
[49:13] and get rid of uh seed oils or something like that and switching over to duck
[49:14] like that and switching over to duck fat. You can move this out to all time.
[49:15] fat. You can move this out to all time. It does seem to be true, but it's peing
[49:17] It does seem to be true, but it's peing more than ever. And you can move this
[49:18] more than ever. And you can move this more micro as well, going to 90 days and
[49:20] more micro as well, going to 90 days and seeing how that's gone. So, that can be
[49:22] seeing how that's gone. So, that can be very useful to see. But let's go ahead
[49:23] very useful to see. But let's go ahead back here and that was the bestseller
[49:25] back here and that was the bestseller method. Just went over that with you
[49:26] method. Just went over that with you guys. And next one, let's move over to
[49:28] guys. And next one, let's move over to Blackbox. Blackbox is also one of my
[49:30] Blackbox. Blackbox is also one of my favorite tools with Amazon as Blackbox
[49:32] favorite tools with Amazon as Blackbox is going to show you um how to products
[49:35] is going to show you um how to products that you can sell on Amazon if you have
[49:37] that you can sell on Amazon if you have no starting ideas. So the magnet tool
[49:39] no starting ideas. So the magnet tool was great because it allowed you to
[49:41] was great because it allowed you to start with a keyword. So we started with
[49:43] start with a keyword. So we started with a keywords tow and lifesting
[49:50] ideas. That's where the blackbox tool
[49:52] ideas. That's where the blackbox tool can be very effective. So let's go back
[49:54] can be very effective. So let's go back over to our Helium 10 right here. Again,
[49:56] over to our Helium 10 right here. Again, if you guys are following along with me
[49:58] if you guys are following along with me in Helium 10, even better. And let's see
[50:00] in Helium 10, even better. And let's see what we got right here. There's two ways
[50:02] what we got right here. There's two ways to use Blackbox. There is the simple and
[50:04] to use Blackbox. There is the simple and there's an advanced. I find the advanced
[50:06] there's an advanced. I find the advanced is not actually that advanced, so I just
[50:08] is not actually that advanced, so I just like using this. There's also both the
[50:10] like using this. There's also both the products and the keywords. We're going
[50:11] products and the keywords. We're going to start on the products and then we'll
[50:12] to start on the products and then we'll move over to the keywords in just a
[50:14] move over to the keywords in just a second. Um, first thing we'll do here is
[50:16] second. Um, first thing we'll do here is we'll select a category. Now, you can
[50:17] we'll select a category. Now, you can choose whatever you want to. There's
[50:18] choose whatever you want to. There's only a few categories I wouldn't
[50:20] only a few categories I wouldn't recommend selling in. I wouldn't
[50:22] recommend selling in. I wouldn't recommend selling like automotive parts
[50:23] recommend selling like automotive parts in like you could sell like um
[50:25] in like you could sell like um accessories but definitely not car
[50:27] accessories but definitely not car parts. I would definitely wouldn't get
[50:28] parts. I would definitely wouldn't get in there. Electronics, I tend to avoid
[50:30] in there. Electronics, I tend to avoid CDs and vinyl. Avoid One of the ones I
[50:32] CDs and vinyl. Avoid One of the ones I really like is I like pet supplies. And
[50:34] really like is I like pet supplies. And you can get even more specific in here
[50:36] you can get even more specific in here and select what pet supplies you're
[50:37] and select what pet supplies you're looking at. Um I also like um where's
[50:40] looking at. Um I also like um where's that outdoor one? Sports and outdoor.
[50:42] that outdoor one? Sports and outdoor. Let's go ahead and select that. We can
[50:44] Let's go ahead and select that. We can get specific in here, too. Um let's go
[50:46] get specific in here, too. Um let's go outdoor recreation. Let's select those
[50:48] outdoor recreation. Let's select those two. Um review count. Um, we're going to
[50:50] two. Um review count. Um, we're going to skip over real quick review rating.
[50:52] skip over real quick review rating. We're looking for products that aren't
[50:54] We're looking for products that aren't rated perfectly so that we can come in
[50:56] rated perfectly so that we can come in and improve them. For instance, if we
[50:57] and improve them. For instance, if we see a market where the products are
[50:59] see a market where the products are selling well at less than four stars,
[51:02] selling well at less than four stars, this means that if we were to launch in
[51:04] this means that if we were to launch in the market with a fivestar product, we
[51:06] the market with a fivestar product, we could take a lot of that business. So, I
[51:08] could take a lot of that business. So, I set the review rating at 4.2 because
[51:11] set the review rating at 4.2 because anything below 4.2 stars on Amazon will
[51:14] anything below 4.2 stars on Amazon will round down to four stars in the little
[51:16] round down to four stars in the little star metric. So, we're going to go ahead
[51:18] star metric. So, we're going to go ahead and put that. Um, in the review count,
[51:21] and put that. Um, in the review count, we're just going to put the maximum at
[51:23] we're just going to put the maximum at a,000 as anything more than a,000. It's
[51:25] a,000 as anything more than a,000. It's going to be hard to rank on. We could go
[51:27] going to be hard to rank on. We could go even lower, like 400 if you wanted to
[51:29] even lower, like 400 if you wanted to get more specific, but for now, we'll do
[51:31] get more specific, but for now, we'll do a,000. And the price, our Goldilock zone
[51:33] a,000. And the price, our Goldilock zone for price is between $15 and $85. If you
[51:36] for price is between $15 and $85. If you sell below $15, there's just not much
[51:39] sell below $15, there's just not much profit margin to make. And if you sell
[51:42] profit margin to make. And if you sell above $85, it's less of a split-second
[51:45] above $85, it's less of a split-second decision. Amazon works best on those
[51:47] decision. Amazon works best on those impulse buys. You go, you see what you
[51:49] impulse buys. You go, you see what you want, you order it. And if you're
[51:50] want, you order it. And if you're selling above $85, there's a bit more of
[51:53] selling above $85, there's a bit more of a a thought process that goes into
[51:55] a a thought process that goes into making the purchase. So, this is all the
[51:58] making the purchase. So, this is all the settings we want. We can get a little
[52:00] settings we want. We can get a little bit more specific if we want to, but
[52:02] bit more specific if we want to, but this is all you have to do for sure. Oh,
[52:04] this is all you have to do for sure. Oh, one thing I do want to do. Oh, I guess
[52:06] one thing I do want to do. Oh, I guess they've broken it up a little bit now.
[52:07] they've broken it up a little bit now. Parent level revenue. We'll just do this
[52:09] Parent level revenue. We'll just do this one for now. We want products that are
[52:11] one for now. We want products that are making I'd say we can say at least
[52:14] making I'd say we can say at least $3,000 a month, but I guess not too
[52:17] $3,000 a month, but I guess not too high. We want to set this where no more
[52:18] high. We want to set this where no more over than a h 100red,000. So, we'll set
[52:20] over than a h 100red,000. So, we'll set that now. I guess we could set it in the
[52:22] that now. I guess we could set it in the as in revenue as well. We'll just set
[52:24] as in revenue as well. We'll just set parent level just to see how that goes
[52:26] parent level just to see how that goes and we'll get this started. So, let's
[52:28] and we'll get this started. So, let's scroll here. We're seeing a lot of
[52:29] scroll here. We're seeing a lot of clothing, which means we could go
[52:30] clothing, which means we could go through and um Oh, this is interesting.
[52:33] through and um Oh, this is interesting. Portable bedet. Interesting. So, uh
[52:36] Portable bedet. Interesting. So, uh portable bedet for um men and women.
[52:39] portable bedet for um men and women. Very interesting. And we can see this
[52:40] Very interesting. And we can see this product is selling at $17.99.
[52:43] product is selling at $17.99. Um, it's doing about $24,000
[52:46] Um, it's doing about $24,000 in sales in the past month. And we can
[52:50] in sales in the past month. And we can see the average rating is four stars. We
[52:51] see the average rating is four stars. We can see this product is a 4.1 star
[52:53] can see this product is a 4.1 star rating. Very interesting. And they're
[52:55] rating. Very interesting. And they're still doing over 300 sales in the past
[52:58] still doing over 300 sales in the past month, selling at $17. You can do the
[53:00] month, selling at $17. You can do the math. They're doing about $5,000 in in
[53:03] math. They're doing about $5,000 in in in revenue every single month. But we
[53:06] in revenue every single month. But we see this product is 4.1 stars. So, if
[53:08] see this product is 4.1 stars. So, if they're able to sell this well, well, a
[53:10] they're able to sell this well, well, a product that's basically four-star
[53:12] product that's basically four-star rated, imagine how much you could sell
[53:14] rated, imagine how much you could sell if you were able to create a fivestar
[53:16] if you were able to create a fivestar product. So, if we scroll down here,
[53:18] product. So, if we scroll down here, what are the issues people are having
[53:20] what are the issues people are having with this product? Let's scroll down
[53:22] with this product? Let's scroll down here and see um something not as good as
[53:26] here and see um something not as good as a bet, but good enough. Well, I mean,
[53:27] a bet, but good enough. Well, I mean, I'm it's a portable. I mean, what can
[53:29] I'm it's a portable. I mean, what can you say? Okay, for the most part, I
[53:30] you say? Okay, for the most part, I thought it would have been smaller and
[53:32] thought it would have been smaller and but the size. Okay. Okay. How can you
[53:33] but the size. Okay. Okay. How can you make this product and make it smaller?
[53:36] make this product and make it smaller? the twist to turn it off and on could
[53:37] the twist to turn it off and on could have been better constructed and keeps
[53:39] have been better constructed and keeps it coming out the bottle. Stop working
[53:41] it coming out the bottle. Stop working after two weeks. So the idea what you
[53:43] after two weeks. So the idea what you can do is you can find a manufacturer
[53:44] can do is you can find a manufacturer and you can take these problems that
[53:46] and you can take these problems that people are experiencing with the product
[53:48] people are experiencing with the product and bring it to them and then make those
[53:50] and bring it to them and then make those improvements so you can come to the
[53:51] improvements so you can come to the market with a fivestar product. Now for
[53:53] market with a fivestar product. Now for instance if this product is selling so
[53:55] instance if this product is selling so well we can look up portable day of
[53:56] well we can look up portable day of travel real quick and we can just see
[53:58] travel real quick and we can just see what what are the other products that
[53:59] what what are the other products that are selling and I'd imagine that they're
[54:01] are selling and I'd imagine that they're also pretty lowly rated. You can see
[54:03] also pretty lowly rated. You can see four stars, four stars, only 14 reviews.
[54:06] four stars, four stars, only 14 reviews. So, that probably is going to drop down
[54:08] So, that probably is going to drop down eventually. We see two products right
[54:09] eventually. We see two products right here. The top two product we're in
[54:10] here. The top two product we're in sponsored, so let's go below sponsored.
[54:12] sponsored, so let's go below sponsored. Okay, this product's rated well. This
[54:13] Okay, this product's rated well. This one only has 20 reviews. So, very, very
[54:15] one only has 20 reviews. So, very, very low reviews. Only 72 reviews. So,
[54:17] low reviews. Only 72 reviews. So, products with low reviews are ranking.
[54:19] products with low reviews are ranking. This one right here, four review, four
[54:21] This one right here, four review, four stars, um, four stars, four stars. So,
[54:26] stars, um, four stars, four stars. So, very interesting. It definitely seems
[54:28] very interesting. It definitely seems like a market that if you improve the
[54:29] like a market that if you improve the product, you can go here and sell. Let's
[54:31] product, you can go here and sell. Let's go back here and take another look to
[54:32] go back here and take another look to see if we can find another product.
[54:34] see if we can find another product. Scrolling through here, we see a bike
[54:36] Scrolling through here, we see a bike saddle. Very interesting. I don't really
[54:37] saddle. Very interesting. I don't really know too much about that. Um, again, we
[54:39] know too much about that. Um, again, we can go back over to our filters and make
[54:42] can go back over to our filters and make things a little bit more specific. For
[54:43] things a little bit more specific. For instance, we can go down to just a
[54:45] instance, we can go down to just a four-star average. And we can go down to
[54:46] four-star average. And we can go down to a review count of 400. So, let's apply
[54:49] a review count of 400. So, let's apply these filters and see what exactly we
[54:51] these filters and see what exactly we see here. Dehydrated whole foods for
[54:54] see here. Dehydrated whole foods for emergency food. Very interesting. Um,
[54:56] emergency food. Very interesting. Um, let's find something that's a little bit
[54:57] let's find something that's a little bit simpler to launch so I can I can really
[54:59] simpler to launch so I can I can really walk through it here. A bike safety
[55:01] walk through it here. A bike safety flag. Very interesting. That's selling
[55:03] flag. Very interesting. That's selling super well as well. Um, a impact
[55:05] super well as well. Um, a impact mouthguard. Let's do one more tab just
[55:08] mouthguard. Let's do one more tab just because often times the best ideas are
[55:10] because often times the best ideas are found from digging for a little bit, not
[55:12] found from digging for a little bit, not just going off the first thing that you
[55:14] just going off the first thing that you see. Um, if you find an idea that
[55:16] see. Um, if you find an idea that everybody sees, you know, everyone also
[55:18] everybody sees, you know, everyone also sees it. So, if you dig down, you can be
[55:20] sees it. So, if you dig down, you can be very confident that um, you're finding
[55:22] very confident that um, you're finding an idea that's unique. Let's see about
[55:25] an idea that's unique. Let's see about this. This is pretty interesting right
[55:26] this. This is pretty interesting right here. It is an inflatable snowmmobile
[55:29] here. It is an inflatable snowmmobile sled. Wow, what an interesting product
[55:32] sled. Wow, what an interesting product right here. Uh looks like you can bring
[55:33] right here. Uh looks like you can bring it to the beach or the snow. That's
[55:35] it to the beach or the snow. That's pretty interesting. Um definitely cool
[55:38] pretty interesting. Um definitely cool looking product right here. It's selling
[55:40] looking product right here. It's selling for $30. So it's in our price range and
[55:42] for $30. So it's in our price range and it has over 100 bot. So you guys can do
[55:44] it has over 100 bot. So you guys can do the math. They're doing at least $3,000
[55:46] the math. They're doing at least $3,000 in sales every single month. And it is
[55:49] in sales every single month. And it is doing that. Helium 10 even says it's
[55:51] doing that. Helium 10 even says it's 200. So $6,000 in revenue the past 30
[55:53] 200. So $6,000 in revenue the past 30 days. pretty good and it only has a 3.7
[55:57] days. pretty good and it only has a 3.7 star average. They're doing all this
[55:58] star average. They're doing all this despite being rated terribly. They're
[56:00] despite being rated terribly. They're being rated at the three and a half
[56:01] being rated at the three and a half stars. So, let's scroll down and see
[56:04] stars. So, let's scroll down and see what's going on here. So, we can see
[56:06] what's going on here. So, we can see this product launched a while back, too.
[56:08] this product launched a while back, too. Um, but let's see what people are saying
[56:10] Um, but let's see what people are saying about it. It's cheap. Won't stay
[56:12] about it. It's cheap. Won't stay inflated for more than a few minutes.
[56:13] inflated for more than a few minutes. Valves are closed. Okay, that's make
[56:15] Valves are closed. Okay, that's make sure that that's an easy problem to
[56:16] sure that that's an easy problem to solve. Go talk to your manufacturer.
[56:18] solve. Go talk to your manufacturer. Very small, much smaller than the
[56:20] Very small, much smaller than the picture appears. The inflation valve was
[56:22] picture appears. The inflation valve was missing. Now, how can you fix these
[56:23] missing. Now, how can you fix these problems if someone has a problem with
[56:25] problems if someone has a problem with your your product? Offer them a refund
[56:27] your your product? Offer them a refund rather than letting them leave a
[56:28] rather than letting them leave a one-star review. And being good with
[56:30] one-star review. And being good with customer service is half the battle to
[56:32] customer service is half the battle to having good reviews on Amazon. If you're
[56:33] having good reviews on Amazon. If you're able to come in here with a fivestar
[56:35] able to come in here with a fivestar product, you can take all this business
[56:36] product, you can take all this business and we can just take it up a little bit
[56:38] and we can just take it up a little bit and see. Let's give it a little look and
[56:40] and see. Let's give it a little look and see. Inflatable snowmobile sled. There's
[56:42] see. Inflatable snowmobile sled. There's some competition, but not a ton. Not a
[56:44] some competition, but not a ton. Not a ton. Not a ton of good reviews. At least
[56:46] ton. Not a ton of good reviews. At least four stars, four stars, only six
[56:48] four stars, four stars, only six reviews, three and a half stars, right?
[56:50] reviews, three and a half stars, right? So, it's definitely a market that looks
[56:52] So, it's definitely a market that looks like it's got some potential. So, cool,
[56:54] like it's got some potential. So, cool, cool, cool. Let's go back over here and
[56:56] cool, cool. Let's go back over here and move on to the next tool, which is
[56:58] move on to the next tool, which is Cerebro. Um, actually, one more thing we
[57:00] Cerebro. Um, actually, one more thing we want to do over in Blackbox before we
[57:01] want to do over in Blackbox before we go. I like doing the product side, but
[57:03] go. I like doing the product side, but there's also is a keyword side. Let's go
[57:05] there's also is a keyword side. Let's go look at these this keyword section right
[57:07] look at these this keyword section right here because not only will the Blackbox
[57:09] here because not only will the Blackbox tools show you products, it will also
[57:10] tools show you products, it will also show you keywords. So, let's go back in
[57:12] show you keywords. So, let's go back in and you know what? I I like that same
[57:14] and you know what? I I like that same one. Let's do pet supplies. We'll keep
[57:15] one. Let's do pet supplies. We'll keep it simple this time. Just do one. Um
[57:17] it simple this time. Just do one. Um really what we want to look for is um
[57:20] really what we want to look for is um let's see here. We want to go down here.
[57:22] let's see here. We want to go down here. Competitor reviews. We want to go
[57:24] Competitor reviews. We want to go ratings. We want to go less than four
[57:25] ratings. We want to go less than four stars. We want to go less than 400
[57:28] stars. We want to go less than 400 reviews. Monthly sales. This is where we
[57:30] reviews. Monthly sales. This is where we want to go at least 3,000. No more than
[57:33] want to go at least 3,000. No more than 100,000. And let's go ahead and hit
[57:35] 100,000. And let's go ahead and hit search and see what we can get here. And
[57:38] search and see what we can get here. And now it's going to spit us product ideas.
[57:40] now it's going to spit us product ideas. We can see dog color. Cool. A cool dog
[57:42] We can see dog color. Cool. A cool dog collar. Interesting. Um durable tennis
[57:44] collar. Interesting. Um durable tennis balls for dogs. We want to keep
[57:45] balls for dogs. We want to keep scrolling through until we see ideas
[57:47] scrolling through until we see ideas that are really, really good. And the
[57:48] that are really, really good. And the thing about it is once we get one of
[57:50] thing about it is once we get one of these ideas, we can throw it back into
[57:53] these ideas, we can throw it back into the magnet tool and we can see relevant
[57:55] the magnet tool and we can see relevant keywords. We can see exactly what the
[57:57] keywords. We can see exactly what the magnet IQ score is for these. So, this
[57:59] magnet IQ score is for these. So, this can be a great starting place right here
[58:01] can be a great starting place right here as we can see. But then we can go and
[58:03] as we can see. But then we can go and take this research so much further by
[58:05] take this research so much further by putting it through the magnet tool and
[58:07] putting it through the magnet tool and seeing all the data points behind it.
[58:08] seeing all the data points behind it. What's the competition like? What are
[58:10] What's the competition like? What are adjacent keywords? All that. Well, lots
[58:12] adjacent keywords? All that. Well, lots of good things here. This is just to get
[58:13] of good things here. This is just to get you started here. Let's move back over
[58:15] you started here. Let's move back over to their next method, which is the
[58:17] to their next method, which is the Cerebro tool. So, the Cerebro tool is
[58:20] Cerebro tool. So, the Cerebro tool is also another favorite tool. And what it
[58:22] also another favorite tool. And what it allows you to do is if you have a
[58:23] allows you to do is if you have a product that you see that's selling big
[58:25] product that you see that's selling big on Amazon, you can put this in Cerebro
[58:28] on Amazon, you can put this in Cerebro and number one, you can see what
[58:30] and number one, you can see what keywords is this product ranking for and
[58:32] keywords is this product ranking for and you can also find adjacent keywords to
[58:34] you can also find adjacent keywords to launch a product that's not this product
[58:36] launch a product that's not this product but very similar. So, we're going to go
[58:38] but very similar. So, we're going to go ahead and get started in this one we
[58:39] ahead and get started in this one we looked at earlier. This pedometer USB
[58:41] looked at earlier. This pedometer USB for walking, simple walking step
[58:43] for walking, simple walking step calculator. And we see a couple things
[58:46] calculator. And we see a couple things on here, but all we need to grab in
[58:47] on here, but all we need to grab in order to use the Cerebo tool is the AS.
[58:50] order to use the Cerebo tool is the AS. And you can get your AS number in
[58:52] And you can get your AS number in several different spots on the page. The
[58:53] several different spots on the page. The first one is the URL bar up here. The AS
[58:56] first one is the URL bar up here. The AS bar is going to be right there. It's
[58:57] bar is going to be right there. It's also going to be right here with Helium
[58:59] also going to be right here with Helium 10. And also, if you search the page for
[59:01] 10. And also, if you search the page for AS, you can find the AS right down here.
[59:03] AS, you can find the AS right down here. So, three different spots. And with our
[59:05] So, three different spots. And with our AS number in hand, we're going to go
[59:08] AS number in hand, we're going to go back over to Helium 10 and navigate over
[59:10] back over to Helium 10 and navigate over to the Cerebro tool. And now we're going
[59:13] to the Cerebro tool. And now we're going to go back over here. And now it has
[59:15] to go back over here. And now it has loaded. Now we're going to put on some
[59:16] loaded. Now we're going to put on some similar filters to what we did before.
[59:18] similar filters to what we did before. All right, we got some loads here. Let's
[59:20] All right, we got some loads here. Let's get here right now. So we're seeing a
[59:22] get here right now. So we're seeing a lot of things come up. Again, we're
[59:23] lot of things come up. Again, we're looking for that cerebra IQ score to be
[59:24] looking for that cerebra IQ score to be at least three times the search volume.
[59:26] at least three times the search volume. So let's keep scrolling down here. Shoe
[59:28] So let's keep scrolling down here. Shoe pedometer. I'm guessing it's a bonometer
[59:30] pedometer. I'm guessing it's a bonometer you put in your shoe. Search volume of
[59:32] you put in your shoe. Search volume of 350. a mag a cerebral IQ score of almost
[59:36] 350. a mag a cerebral IQ score of almost eight times that. So, there's a lot of
[59:38] eight times that. So, there's a lot of potential there and only eight needed to
[59:39] potential there and only eight needed to rank. Super interesting. Let's click
[59:41] rank. Super interesting. Let's click here and see if anybody is selling a
[59:43] here and see if anybody is selling a shoe pedometer. Um, that's kind of an
[59:45] shoe pedometer. Um, that's kind of an ankle pedometer. But just make a
[59:47] ankle pedometer. But just make a pedometer that slips in someone's shoe
[59:49] pedometer that slips in someone's shoe and you have a product you can sell
[59:50] and you have a product you can sell here. Let's keep going here and see what
[59:52] here. Let's keep going here and see what else we see. Pedometer for seniors.
[59:54] else we see. Pedometer for seniors. There's 350 people searching for it and
[59:56] There's 350 people searching for it and the magnetic Q score is over three times
[59:58] the magnetic Q score is over three times that. The CPR is only eight. So in that
[01:00:01] that. The CPR is only eight. So in that case, this is a product that there's a
[01:00:02] case, this is a product that there's a lot of potential for. There's not too
[01:00:03] lot of potential for. There's not too much competition. If we click into it,
[01:00:05] much competition. If we click into it, let's see if there's any products that
[01:00:06] let's see if there's any products that are completely geared in that direction.
[01:00:09] are completely geared in that direction. Let's take a look and see. Yeah. So we
[01:00:10] Let's take a look and see. Yeah. So we see regular pedometers. But if this
[01:00:12] see regular pedometers. But if this pedometer was the picture, a senior was
[01:00:14] pedometer was the picture, a senior was using it. Let's just say it was called
[01:00:16] using it. Let's just say it was called like senior pedometer or something like
[01:00:18] like senior pedometer or something like that. This is exactly what you can do to
[01:00:20] that. This is exactly what you can do to niche down and to make a product like
[01:00:23] niche down and to make a product like that. And as I mentioned earlier, 300
[01:00:25] that. And as I mentioned earlier, 300 searches is very good for selling on
[01:00:27] searches is very good for selling on Amazon. I know it doesn't seem like
[01:00:29] Amazon. I know it doesn't seem like much, but these are active consumers
[01:00:30] much, but these are active consumers that are searching for your product. 300
[01:00:33] that are searching for your product. 300 searches is a great starting place
[01:00:34] searches is a great starting place because number one, you can make a,000
[01:00:37] because number one, you can make a,000 or $2,000 off 300 searches a month
[01:00:39] or $2,000 off 300 searches a month easily. And number two, you don't just
[01:00:41] easily. And number two, you don't just target one keyword. For instance, this
[01:00:44] target one keyword. For instance, this one right here, pedometer for seniors.
[01:00:46] one right here, pedometer for seniors. There are many keywords you're going to
[01:00:48] There are many keywords you're going to rank for. You're not just going to rank
[01:00:50] rank for. You're not just going to rank for pedometer for seniors. You're going
[01:00:51] for pedometer for seniors. You're going to rank for senior pedometer. You're
[01:00:53] to rank for senior pedometer. You're going to rank for pedometer for older
[01:00:55] going to rank for pedometer for older people, right? and you're going to rank
[01:00:56] people, right? and you're going to rank for a lot of keywords and you can by
[01:00:58] for a lot of keywords and you can by using these tools find those keywords.
[01:01:00] using these tools find those keywords. And let's just say you have five
[01:01:01] And let's just say you have five different keywords that are each getting
[01:01:03] different keywords that are each getting 350 searches a month. You can easily be
[01:01:05] 350 searches a month. You can easily be doing $10,000 a month off that easily.
[01:01:08] doing $10,000 a month off that easily. And so it's just a matter by seeing the
[01:01:09] And so it's just a matter by seeing the big picture. How do you rank without
[01:01:11] big picture. How do you rank without PPC? Um you do a great launch week. You
[01:01:14] PPC? Um you do a great launch week. You you get your friends, your family, you
[01:01:15] you get your friends, your family, you get your your pre-launch group to order
[01:01:18] get your your pre-launch group to order your product and you sustain that
[01:01:20] your product and you sustain that growth. If you're launching in a in a
[01:01:21] growth. If you're launching in a in a market like this one we just saw, you're
[01:01:23] market like this one we just saw, you're the only person selling a product
[01:01:25] the only person selling a product targeting these people, there's no
[01:01:27] targeting these people, there's no competition. There's no one. Your
[01:01:28] competition. There's no one. Your product will show up at the top there
[01:01:30] product will show up at the top there for we've we only launch products in
[01:01:33] for we've we only launch products in non-competitive niches like this.
[01:01:35] non-competitive niches like this. Non-competitive where there's maybe one,
[01:01:37] Non-competitive where there's maybe one, maybe two, maybe none at all
[01:01:39] maybe two, maybe none at all competitors. And so we can be the
[01:01:41] competitors. And so we can be the product that ranks at the top because
[01:01:42] product that ranks at the top because we're the only one that's created that
[01:01:44] we're the only one that's created that product. With that being said, let's go
[01:01:46] product. With that being said, let's go ahead and move on to the next keyword
[01:01:48] ahead and move on to the next keyword method which is the search bar method.
[01:01:50] method which is the search bar method. So let's go ahead open up a brand new
[01:01:51] So let's go ahead open up a brand new tab of Amazon. All right. So once as we
[01:01:54] tab of Amazon. All right. So once as we mentioned earlier, Amazon is literally a
[01:01:57] mentioned earlier, Amazon is literally a search engine. People go here to search
[01:01:59] search engine. People go here to search for products. This right here is the
[01:02:00] for products. This right here is the search bar and that's what basically
[01:02:02] search bar and that's what basically Amazon is. Now when I start to type
[01:02:03] Amazon is. Now when I start to type something in on Amazon, like let's just
[01:02:05] something in on Amazon, like let's just say I hit the letter D, Amazon is going
[01:02:06] say I hit the letter D, Amazon is going to show me the top 10 results it thinks
[01:02:09] to show me the top 10 results it thinks I'm going to click based on what people
[01:02:10] I'm going to click based on what people are searching for. So these are the top
[01:02:12] are searching for. So these are the top 10 searches for right now on Amazon that
[01:02:14] 10 searches for right now on Amazon that start with the letter D. So we can see
[01:02:16] start with the letter D. So we can see dog treats, dash cam, lots and lots of
[01:02:18] dog treats, dash cam, lots and lots of interesting things. So okay, very cool.
[01:02:20] interesting things. So okay, very cool. Um, but let's go another. Let's go do D
[01:02:23] Um, but let's go another. Let's go do D O. Now we're seeing a lot of dog related
[01:02:25] O. Now we're seeing a lot of dog related things. Okay, so dog food, dog bed.
[01:02:26] things. Okay, so dog food, dog bed. Okay, interesting. But what if we went
[01:02:28] Okay, interesting. But what if we went in a third letter and maybe D O Dodger
[01:02:31] in a third letter and maybe D O Dodger stuff? Let's go back. We can go DL
[01:02:34] stuff? Let's go back. We can go DL dolls. But by going a few letters deep,
[01:02:36] dolls. But by going a few letters deep, we can see what people are searching in.
[01:02:37] we can see what people are searching in. And exactly this method right here is
[01:02:40] And exactly this method right here is how we found our product bourberine tea.
[01:02:42] how we found our product bourberine tea. We were typing we type in be and as we
[01:02:44] We were typing we type in be and as we can see the you know the fifth sixth
[01:02:46] can see the you know the fifth sixth result right here is for bourberine and
[01:02:48] result right here is for bourberine and we're like oh that's so interesting. Be
[01:02:49] we're like oh that's so interesting. Be what's bourberine? So actually number
[01:02:51] what's bourberine? So actually number one is bourberine right here. That's
[01:02:52] one is bourberine right here. That's crazy. So the very top it wasn't at the
[01:02:54] crazy. So the very top it wasn't at the top when we originally did this but
[01:02:55] top when we originally did this but that's very interesting to see. So now
[01:02:57] that's very interesting to see. So now we see bourberine. Let's type in
[01:02:58] we see bourberine. Let's type in bourberine and see. So we see lots of
[01:03:00] bourberine and see. So we see lots of different bourberine things. At this
[01:03:01] different bourberine things. At this point, we can take bourberine and we can
[01:03:03] point, we can take bourberine and we can put it in the magnet tool to find
[01:03:05] put it in the magnet tool to find adjacent keywords or we can keep going
[01:03:07] adjacent keywords or we can keep going further with this search bar tool. We
[01:03:10] further with this search bar tool. We typed in a T and we saw bourberine tea
[01:03:12] typed in a T and we saw bourberine tea was right here at the top. So, we
[01:03:13] was right here at the top. So, we clicked on it and we were able to launch
[01:03:15] clicked on it and we were able to launch our product Bourberine Tea which as we
[01:03:16] our product Bourberine Tea which as we can see right here is ranking right at
[01:03:18] can see right here is ranking right at the top. We can see it right at the top
[01:03:20] the top. We can see it right at the top of this page right here. This product is

[01:03:36] I mean, and this is a product that's got an over 50% profit margin. So, listen, I
[01:03:39] an over 50% profit margin. So, listen, I know for some people you're like, "Oh,

[01:03:53] start up. Who's passing up on that? It's a very easy, passive business. We spend
[01:03:56] a very easy, passive business. We spend virtually zero time on this product and
[01:03:58] virtually zero time on this product and it continues to bring us in $1,000 every
[01:04:00] it continues to bring us in $1,000 every month. And the key is just finding ideas
[01:04:02] month. And the key is just finding ideas like this that people are not in. The
[01:04:04] like this that people are not in. The issue that everyone runs into is by
[01:04:06] issue that everyone runs into is by doing the same private label method
[01:04:08] doing the same private label method where you find a generic product from
[01:04:10] where you find a generic product from Amazon or from Alibaba. You slap your
[01:04:13] Amazon or from Alibaba. You slap your label on it. You go selling it. Listen,
[01:04:14] label on it. You go selling it. Listen, like people do this all the time. Like I
[01:04:16] like people do this all the time. Like I remember back in the day like, "Oh, go
[01:04:17] remember back in the day like, "Oh, go find a frying pan, right? Get a frying
[01:04:19] find a frying pan, right? Get a frying pan from Alibaba. Slap your label on it.
[01:04:21] pan from Alibaba. Slap your label on it. Sell it." Why would someone buy your
[01:04:24] Sell it." Why would someone buy your product versus all these people, right?
[01:04:26] product versus all these people, right? then you're just stuck in all this
[01:04:27] then you're just stuck in all this competition. And your only way to get
[01:04:29] competition. And your only way to get sales is by PPC because your product is
[01:04:31] sales is by PPC because your product is nothing unique. It's not nothing
[01:04:33] nothing unique. It's not nothing special. It's not the best in the
[01:04:35] special. It's not the best in the market. It's not the best branded on the
[01:04:36] market. It's not the best branded on the market. You're in a very competitive
[01:04:38] market. You're in a very competitive market. It doesn't have the best reviews
[01:04:40] market. It doesn't have the best reviews or the most reviews. So then the only
[01:04:42] or the most reviews. So then the only way you get sales by PPC and you end up
[01:04:44] way you get sales by PPC and you end up losing all your profit. The key is to
[01:04:46] losing all your profit. The key is to start at the beginning by selling a
[01:04:49] start at the beginning by selling a product or starting a product that's
[01:04:51] product or starting a product that's unique, that you're passionate about,
[01:04:53] unique, that you're passionate about, that isn't already being sold, that's in
[01:04:54] that isn't already being sold, that's in a market of its own. Next one we're
[01:04:56] a market of its own. Next one we're going to talk about is Google Trends and
[01:04:58] going to talk about is Google Trends and the keyword planner. Google Trends is
[01:05:00] the keyword planner. Google Trends is another free tool and it's going to
[01:05:01] another free tool and it's going to allow you to see what people are
[01:05:03] allow you to see what people are searching for on Google, but we can see
[01:05:05] searching for on Google, but we can see what people are searching for live. So,
[01:05:06] what people are searching for live. So, if we scroll down here, we can see what
[01:05:08] if we scroll down here, we can see what the top trends are right now for the
[01:05:10] the top trends are right now for the year. We can see Parker Jones. We click
[01:05:12] year. We can see Parker Jones. We click on this right here. Look at that right
[01:05:13] on this right here. Look at that right there. We can see spiking up. But let's
[01:05:14] there. We can see spiking up. But let's look at a trend like let's look at the
[01:05:16] look at a trend like let's look at the Los Angeles Lakers right here. Something
[01:05:18] Los Angeles Lakers right here. Something random. But we can see the trend over
[01:05:20] random. But we can see the trend over the last 12 months. We can expand this.
[01:05:22] the last 12 months. We can expand this. We can look at the trend the past 5
[01:05:23] We can look at the trend the past 5 years. And although this is on Google,
[01:05:25] years. And although this is on Google, the trend on Amazon is going to be very
[01:05:27] the trend on Amazon is going to be very similar because it's just consumer
[01:05:29] similar because it's just consumer interest. It's consumer interest all the
[01:05:30] interest. It's consumer interest all the time and you're able to track them. So
[01:05:32] time and you're able to track them. So for instance, we just looked at
[01:05:33] for instance, we just looked at bourberine real quick. So let's go ahead
[01:05:35] bourberine real quick. So let's go ahead and look at bourberine on here and see
[01:05:39] and look at bourberine on here and see what that trend looks line looks like.
[01:05:41] what that trend looks line looks like. We can see no one's talking about Burine
[01:05:43] We can see no one's talking about Burine back in 2012, 2015. Keep on scrolling,
[01:05:45] back in 2012, 2015. Keep on scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Um, all
[01:05:47] scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Um, all the way up here and all of a sudden it
[01:05:50] the way up here and all of a sudden it peaks. Maybe it was mentioned on a talk
[01:05:51] peaks. Maybe it was mentioned on a talk show, maybe was on Oprah, maybe Dr.
[01:05:53] show, maybe was on Oprah, maybe Dr. Phil, maybe someone mentioned it, but
[01:05:55] Phil, maybe someone mentioned it, but all of a sudden it spiked and now
[01:05:56] all of a sudden it spiked and now volume's pretty high. As many of you
[01:05:58] volume's pretty high. As many of you guys know, we've launched our product
[01:05:59] guys know, we've launched our product carnivore electrolytes, which we sell
[01:06:02] carnivore electrolytes, which we sell for people on the carnivore diet. So,
[01:06:03] for people on the carnivore diet. So, let's take a look and see how it's doing
[01:06:05] let's take a look and see how it's doing past 5 years. Look at this all-time
[01:06:07] past 5 years. Look at this all-time spike happening right now. We definitely
[01:06:09] spike happening right now. We definitely got into this market at the right time.
[01:06:10] got into this market at the right time. Let's back it up again and see 2024 or
[01:06:14] Let's back it up again and see 2024 or 2004.
[01:06:15] 2004. Look at that trend. This is the perfect
[01:06:17] Look at that trend. This is the perfect time to be in the carnivore diet market.
[01:06:18] time to be in the carnivore diet market. But let's back it up a little bit more.
[01:06:20] But let's back it up a little bit more. Let's put in the the keto diet here.
[01:06:22] Let's put in the the keto diet here. Let's put in the vegan diet here, too.
[01:06:23] Let's put in the vegan diet here, too. See, we can compare. We can combine
[01:06:25] See, we can compare. We can combine trends and we can see how things are
[01:06:27] trends and we can see how things are trending relative to one another. So,
[01:06:29] trending relative to one another. So, let's put this on uh 2005 real quick
[01:06:31] let's put this on uh 2005 real quick because this is uh a lot to look at or
[01:06:33] because this is uh a lot to look at or just 5 years, sorry. And we can see the
[01:06:35] just 5 years, sorry. And we can see the keto diet. Now, Travis was launching
[01:06:36] keto diet. Now, Travis was launching performance nut butter targeting the
[01:06:38] performance nut butter targeting the keto diet back in here when it was
[01:06:40] keto diet back in here when it was really really peing and we were in the
[01:06:41] really really peing and we were in the big big peak for this perfect time to be
[01:06:43] big big peak for this perfect time to be selling a keto product was back in this
[01:06:45] selling a keto product was back in this day. But you can see over time the keto
[01:06:47] day. But you can see over time the keto product died. Now Travis exited the
[01:06:49] product died. Now Travis exited the business here. Probably a good sign to
[01:06:50] business here. Probably a good sign to exit. He sold the company because if he
[01:06:52] exit. He sold the company because if he kept riding it, he would just been
[01:06:54] kept riding it, he would just been riding this trend at the bottom. Now you
[01:06:56] riding this trend at the bottom. Now you can see some of these other ones rising
[01:06:57] can see some of these other ones rising up. You can see vegan diet here. It's
[01:06:59] up. You can see vegan diet here. It's there. It's kind of low. It's it peaks
[01:07:02] there. It's kind of low. It's it peaks beginning every year. The new year
[01:07:03] beginning every year. The new year people set resolutions. But the
[01:07:05] people set resolutions. But the carnivore diet we can see really rising
[01:07:07] carnivore diet we can see really rising up all the way up here. So these trend
[01:07:09] up all the way up here. So these trend lines will let you compare things and
[01:07:10] lines will let you compare things and see what's selling, what's the better
[01:07:12] see what's selling, what's the better product to sell? Um what do things look
[01:07:14] product to sell? Um what do things look like over time? And although this is
[01:07:16] like over time? And although this is data on Google, it's going to be very
[01:07:18] data on Google, it's going to be very similar to the data that you'll get on
[01:07:19] similar to the data that you'll get on Amazon. You know, it's a lot of the same
[01:07:21] Amazon. You know, it's a lot of the same people. It's that are searching on both.
[01:07:22] people. It's that are searching on both. And you know, they're both big
[01:07:24] And you know, they're both big platforms, so they're going to capture
[01:07:25] platforms, so they're going to capture the macro trends that are happening. So
[01:07:27] the macro trends that are happening. So let's go back over here and go over to
[01:07:30] let's go back over here and go over to another tool. Now, this is one of my
[01:07:32] another tool. Now, this is one of my favorite tools. Um, this is a bonus tool
[01:07:34] favorite tools. Um, this is a bonus tool for you guys today that I love using and
[01:07:37] for you guys today that I love using and that's Exploding Topics. Now, Exploding
[01:07:38] that's Exploding Topics. Now, Exploding Topics is a curated trend list and
[01:07:41] Topics is a curated trend list and they're going to show you those trends

[01:08:04] pretty solid volume right now. This is a product that's exploding in real time
[01:08:07] product that's exploding in real time going all the way up to the top right
[01:08:08] going all the way up to the top right here. Um, super interesting. This is
[01:08:10] here. Um, super interesting. This is something I would definitely consider
[01:08:11] something I would definitely consider looking at. Let's pull it up on their
[01:08:12] looking at. Let's pull it up on their screen. If you have the pro version, you
[01:08:14] screen. If you have the pro version, you can look at the forecast and you can see
[01:08:16] can look at the forecast and you can see where it thinks it's going to continue
[01:08:17] where it thinks it's going to continue to grow based on, you know, it's AI.
[01:08:20] to grow based on, you know, it's AI. They got all the data points. They can
[01:08:21] They got all the data points. They can show you, oh, is this the trend that's
[01:08:22] show you, oh, is this the trend that's going to die out or one that's going to
[01:08:23] going to die out or one that's going to keep going and growing. So, that's one
[01:08:26] keep going and growing. So, that's one loop earplugs, uh, designed to protect
[01:08:28] loop earplugs, uh, designed to protect your ears from harmful noise levels.
[01:08:29] your ears from harmful noise levels. Very interesting. I think it's
[01:08:30] Very interesting. I think it's continuing to spike. Keep scrolling down
[01:08:32] continuing to spike. Keep scrolling down here. We can see lots of cool ideas.
[01:08:34] here. We can see lots of cool ideas. Bamboo pajamas seems like a great thing
[01:08:36] Bamboo pajamas seems like a great thing right here. It's exploding 1,600% growth
[01:08:39] right here. It's exploding 1,600% growth in the past year. Again, you can combine
[01:08:42] in the past year. Again, you can combine these methods. And that's what I think
[01:08:43] these methods. And that's what I think is really great. You can take this
[01:08:44] is really great. You can take this keyword right here and I can go plug
[01:08:46] keyword right here and I can go plug this in the magnet tool. I can go back
[01:08:48] this in the magnet tool. I can go back over to Helium 10. We can go up here. We
[01:08:50] over to Helium 10. We can go up here. We can go to the magnet tool and we can
[01:08:52] can go to the magnet tool and we can plug this in to see what's the
[01:08:53] plug this in to see what's the competition look like. Is it a good
[01:08:55] competition look like. Is it a good trend? What can we do about this? So,
[01:08:57] trend? What can we do about this? So, it's definitely something interesting to
[01:08:58] it's definitely something interesting to see. And yeah, we can see right here, I
[01:09:00] see. And yeah, we can see right here, I wouldn't do just plain bamboo pajamas,
[01:09:02] wouldn't do just plain bamboo pajamas, but maybe you can find a subniche to go
[01:09:04] but maybe you can find a subniche to go down to that's going to be able to make
[01:09:06] down to that's going to be able to make you a good bit of money. Now, I want to
[01:09:08] you a good bit of money. Now, I want to make sure that we're able to cover all
[01:09:10] make sure that we're able to cover all the methods right here. So, finally,
[01:09:12] the methods right here. So, finally, this last method we want to talk about
[01:09:14] this last method we want to talk about right now is a passion product. So, as
[01:09:16] right now is a passion product. So, as I've kind of talked about with passion
[01:09:17] I've kind of talked about with passion product, the method that was taught for
[01:09:19] product, the method that was taught for the longest time is private label. Take
[01:09:21] the longest time is private label. Take a generic product can be anything. A
[01:09:23] a generic product can be anything. A frying pan, slap your label on it, get
[01:09:25] frying pan, slap your label on it, get on Alibaba, sell it on Amazon. The
[01:09:27] on Alibaba, sell it on Amazon. The problem is everyone knows about this
[01:09:29] problem is everyone knows about this method. Everyone is doing this. Everyone
[01:09:31] method. Everyone is doing this. Everyone from China is going to overcut you,
[01:09:33] from China is going to overcut you, especially with the tariffs that are
[01:09:34] especially with the tariffs that are coming on now. Those are going to affect
[01:09:36] coming on now. Those are going to affect US sellers more than Chinese ones. And
[01:09:37] US sellers more than Chinese ones. And the Chinese ones will continue to
[01:09:39] the Chinese ones will continue to undercut the US sellers and just take
[01:09:42] undercut the US sellers and just take all the all the profit away. So here's
[01:09:44] all the all the profit away. So here's the deal. What I recommend you doing
[01:09:46] the deal. What I recommend you doing instead is creating a passion product.
[01:09:48] instead is creating a passion product. So when Travis first started his
[01:09:49] So when Travis first started his dancewear company with his mom be
[01:09:51] dancewear company with his mom be Dancewear, the problem was he wasn't
[01:09:52] Dancewear, the problem was he wasn't passionate about it. He wasn't
[01:09:54] passionate about it. He wasn't passionate about dance clothing. It
[01:09:55] passionate about dance clothing. It wasn't something that he knew anything
[01:09:56] wasn't something that he knew anything special about. So he couldn't do
[01:09:58] special about. So he couldn't do anything special in the market. But was
[01:10:00] anything special in the market. But was a what was a passion product was
[01:10:01] a what was a passion product was performance nut butter which he created.
[01:10:03] performance nut butter which he created. He took his interest of working out and
[01:10:05] He took his interest of working out and the keto diet and things and created a
[01:10:07] the keto diet and things and created a product that was unique in a market of
[01:10:09] product that was unique in a market of its own and something he really cared
[01:10:10] its own and something he really cared about. And by doing this product in the
[01:10:12] about. And by doing this product in the first year he was able to do $1,300,000
[01:10:16] first year he was able to do $1,300,000 selling this product because he was
[01:10:18] selling this product because he was passionate about it because no other
[01:10:20] passionate about it because no other premium nut butter existed in the market
[01:10:22] premium nut butter existed in the market at the time. And that's the key to using
[01:10:24] at the time. And that's the key to using a pro a passion product. Now you can
[01:10:26] a pro a passion product. Now you can combine these other methods like the
[01:10:28] combine these other methods like the magnet tool like exploding topics and
[01:10:30] magnet tool like exploding topics and find things that you're passionate about
[01:10:32] find things that you're passionate about and build a passion product around it.
[01:10:34] and build a passion product around it. Now if we keep going on here we look at
[01:10:36] Now if we keep going on here we look at these other ideas. Now these are from
[01:10:37] these other ideas. Now these are from both us in house and our students. We
[01:10:39] both us in house and our students. We just talked about performance nut butter

[01:14:52] show you the next step, which is manufacturing.
[01:14:53] manufacturing. >> All right, what's up everybody? Let's
[01:14:54] >> All right, what's up everybody? Let's jump into finding a manufacturer. So,
[01:14:58] jump into finding a manufacturer. So, I'm going to be talking about three
[01:14:59] I'm going to be talking about three different ways of finding a
[01:15:01] different ways of finding a manufacturer. So, let's dive into it. So
[01:15:04] manufacturer. So, let's dive into it. So the first way I'm going to talk about
[01:15:06] the first way I'm going to talk about Alibaba which is the most widely known
[01:15:08] Alibaba which is the most widely known platform to find suppliers and they have
[01:15:11] platform to find suppliers and they have so many suppliers not just in China
[01:15:14] so many suppliers not just in China worldwide but they actually have
[01:15:15] worldwide but they actually have suppliers that are logging on and they
[01:15:18] suppliers that are logging on and they are being listed on Alibaba that are in
[01:15:20] are being listed on Alibaba that are in Asia. They are also listed in Europe.
[01:15:23] Asia. They are also listed in Europe. They have thousands of suppliers on
[01:15:25] They have thousands of suppliers on there. So, if we log in to Alibaba.com,
[01:15:28] there. So, if we log in to Alibaba.com, one of the things that you will see on
[01:15:29] one of the things that you will see on this website is that they have over a
[01:15:31] this website is that they have over a 100,000 suppliers that are listed on
[01:15:34] 100,000 suppliers that are listed on Alibaba. And it's very easy to find
[01:15:37] Alibaba. And it's very easy to find manufacturers that can make your
[01:15:39] manufacturers that can make your product. And one of the ways to jump and
[01:15:41] product. And one of the ways to jump and and do that is to type in the type of
[01:15:44] and do that is to type in the type of product that you want to manufacture.
[01:15:45] product that you want to manufacture. And now, if you're making something new,
[01:15:47] And now, if you're making something new, so you want to type in something similar
[01:15:49] so you want to type in something similar or in the same category of the product
[01:15:51] or in the same category of the product that you're trying to manufacture. And
[01:15:53] that you're trying to manufacture. And then you start filtering which
[01:15:54] then you start filtering which manufacturer as you start communicating
[01:15:57] manufacturer as you start communicating with them as to who can help you
[01:15:59] with them as to who can help you manufacture or make your product. And
[01:16:01] manufacture or make your product. And one of the things to know about Alibaba
[01:16:03] one of the things to know about Alibaba and why it's gotten better over the
[01:16:04] and why it's gotten better over the years is because of their trade
[01:16:06] years is because of their trade assurance. And trade assurance makes
[01:16:09] assurance. And trade assurance makes sure that they provide ways to protect
[01:16:11] sure that they provide ways to protect against any unforeseen circumstances to
[01:16:14] against any unforeseen circumstances to make sure that your requirements from
[01:16:16] make sure that your requirements from your suppliers are being met. So that's
[01:16:18] your suppliers are being met. So that's one thing. Another thing, if there's any
[01:16:20] one thing. Another thing, if there's any shipping issues or delays or anything,
[01:16:22] shipping issues or delays or anything, Alibaba is on top of it. They act as an
[01:16:25] Alibaba is on top of it. They act as an escrow where they they are the middleman
[01:16:27] escrow where they they are the middleman between you and the supplier or the
[01:16:29] between you and the supplier or the manufacturer and they make sure that
[01:16:31] manufacturer and they make sure that they hold on to the money. So, it's not
[01:16:33] they hold on to the money. So, it's not paid off yet to the supplier until they
[01:16:36] paid off yet to the supplier until they make sure that you're getting your
[01:16:38] make sure that you're getting your products the way you want to. They even
[01:16:40] products the way you want to. They even offer uh product inspections to make
[01:16:42] offer uh product inspections to make sure the quality of your product is up
[01:16:44] sure the quality of your product is up to standards. So you definitely want to
[01:16:46] to standards. So you definitely want to make sure when you're looking for
[01:16:47] make sure when you're looking for products to take advantage of these
[01:16:49] products to take advantage of these tools because they are offered there for
[01:16:51] tools because they are offered there for a reason. Now a lot of mistakes that new
[01:16:54] a reason. Now a lot of mistakes that new beginners make is that they don't take
[01:16:56] beginners make is that they don't take advantage of these trade assurance
[01:16:59] advantage of these trade assurance features. For example, you want to make
[01:17:01] features. For example, you want to make sure that your product, your production
[01:17:02] sure that your product, your production run is meeting the quality that you
[01:17:04] run is meeting the quality that you want. So you want to put your
[01:17:06] want. So you want to put your expectations upfront with the supplier.
[01:17:08] expectations upfront with the supplier. If there are things that you are asking
[01:17:10] If there are things that you are asking your supplier to meet, you want to make
[01:17:12] your supplier to meet, you want to make sure they meet them before you take your
[01:17:14] sure they meet them before you take your product in, before you pay them full
[01:17:16] product in, before you pay them full price. We'll talk about that in just a
[01:17:18] price. We'll talk about that in just a second. Let's talk about finding
[01:17:20] second. Let's talk about finding products. So, let's let's do an example
[01:17:22] products. So, let's let's do an example here, a live example. Let's say, for
[01:17:24] here, a live example. Let's say, for example, you want to get into the pet
[01:17:26] example, you want to get into the pet category, right? And you want to maybe
[01:17:29] category, right? And you want to maybe possibly make a new supplement or a
[01:17:31] possibly make a new supplement or a treat or some kind of snack for for dogs
[01:17:34] treat or some kind of snack for for dogs or cats. So, you can just type in here
[01:17:36] or cats. So, you can just type in here dog treats. And over here, you're going
[01:17:38] dog treats. And over here, you're going to get a list of so many different
[01:17:40] to get a list of so many different suppliers or manufacturers that can help
[01:17:43] suppliers or manufacturers that can help you. Obviously, they're showing the
[01:17:44] you. Obviously, they're showing the products that they're already making.
[01:17:46] products that they're already making. And when you go in, when you go in to
[01:17:48] And when you go in, when you go in to see those suppliers, you're going to see
[01:17:50] see those suppliers, you're going to see that they're making so many other
[01:17:52] that they're making so many other products than this. So, you definitely
[01:17:54] products than this. So, you definitely want to spend more time investigating
[01:17:56] want to spend more time investigating and searching each supplier to see what
[01:17:59] and searching each supplier to see what their specialty is because some
[01:18:02] their specialty is because some suppliers are more specialized than
[01:18:03] suppliers are more specialized than others. You'll find out that they are
[01:18:05] others. You'll find out that they are like a jack of all trades and they will
[01:18:08] like a jack of all trades and they will be manufacturing products left and
[01:18:10] be manufacturing products left and right. They might have pet products
[01:18:11] right. They might have pet products along with other types of products. Is
[01:18:13] along with other types of products. Is that a supplier that you want to buy
[01:18:15] that a supplier that you want to buy from? That's up to you. But you might
[01:18:17] from? That's up to you. But you might find a supplier that specializes in dog
[01:18:20] find a supplier that specializes in dog treat or food products, consumable
[01:18:23] treat or food products, consumable products just specifically for dogs.
[01:18:25] products just specifically for dogs. Now, this is a more specialized supplier
[01:18:28] Now, this is a more specialized supplier that you might want to be interested to
[01:18:30] that you might want to be interested to work with. Now when you are searching
[01:18:32] work with. Now when you are searching for a supplier, one thing that you want
[01:18:34] for a supplier, one thing that you want to do is you want to request samples.
[01:18:36] to do is you want to request samples. That's going to allow you to understand
[01:18:38] That's going to allow you to understand how does this manufacturer operate. You
[01:18:41] how does this manufacturer operate. You know, how is their customer service with
[01:18:42] know, how is their customer service with you? How is their shipping quality? How
[01:18:44] you? How is their shipping quality? How is their packaging? What is the quality
[01:18:46] is their packaging? What is the quality of their product? Those are all things
[01:18:48] of their product? Those are all things that you want to investigate. But before
[01:18:50] that you want to investigate. But before you go ahead and do that, it's really
[01:18:52] you go ahead and do that, it's really really important to look at few things
[01:18:54] really important to look at few things first. One of the first things that you
[01:18:56] first. One of the first things that you want to look at is is this a verified
[01:18:59] want to look at is is this a verified supplier? And what does that mean? So
[01:19:01] supplier? And what does that mean? So you always can go here and click on the
[01:19:03] you always can go here and click on the question mark or just put your cursor
[01:19:05] question mark or just put your cursor over it. Verified suppliers are
[01:19:07] over it. Verified suppliers are suppliers with uh credentials and
[01:19:10] suppliers with uh credentials and capabilities inspecting and verified by
[01:19:14] capabilities inspecting and verified by third-party companies. So, what that
[01:19:16] third-party companies. So, what that means is that Alibaba sends a
[01:19:19] means is that Alibaba sends a third-party inspection company to that
[01:19:22] third-party inspection company to that manufacturer to make sure that they are
[01:19:24] manufacturer to make sure that they are a legit manufacturer and they are not
[01:19:26] a legit manufacturer and they are not just some hole in the wall or some kind
[01:19:29] just some hole in the wall or some kind of a scam artist that's trying to, you
[01:19:33] of a scam artist that's trying to, you know, act as a manufacturer. Another
[01:19:35] know, act as a manufacturer. Another thing they have is verified pro
[01:19:37] thing they have is verified pro suppliers. What does that mean? Now that
[01:19:39] suppliers. What does that mean? Now that is taking things to the next step which
[01:19:41] is taking things to the next step which is these are verified suppliers that
[01:19:44] is these are verified suppliers that have been selling for five plus years on
[01:19:47] have been selling for five plus years on this platform and they've been verified
[01:19:48] this platform and they've been verified for so long. So they have so much more
[01:19:51] for so long. So they have so much more credentials. So that means when you when
[01:19:53] credentials. So that means when you when you find those suppliers looking at
[01:19:55] you find those suppliers looking at their reviews and their revenue you can
[01:19:57] their reviews and their revenue you can tell that this is a successful
[01:19:59] tell that this is a successful manufacturer or supplier that's been
[01:20:02] manufacturer or supplier that's been working with a lot of sellers. The next
[01:20:04] working with a lot of sellers. The next thing that you want to look for is the
[01:20:05] thing that you want to look for is the supplier history and the number of years
[01:20:08] supplier history and the number of years they've been selling. So, when you're
[01:20:09] they've been selling. So, when you're looking through for suppliers here, you
[01:20:11] looking through for suppliers here, you can see there are the number of years
[01:20:13] can see there are the number of years that those suppliers have been selling
[01:20:15] that those suppliers have been selling for. We recommend that you work with
[01:20:17] for. We recommend that you work with suppliers that have been selling for at
[01:20:19] suppliers that have been selling for at least two years, right? You don't want
[01:20:21] least two years, right? You don't want to just cut everyone out and look for
[01:20:23] to just cut everyone out and look for suppliers that have been selling for
[01:20:24] suppliers that have been selling for five plus years because those could be
[01:20:26] five plus years because those could be big fish in the pond. Those could be
[01:20:29] big fish in the pond. Those could be big, expensive suppliers. You might want
[01:20:31] big, expensive suppliers. You might want to work with a supplier that's been
[01:20:33] to work with a supplier that's been working for 2 years, especially if it's
[01:20:34] working for 2 years, especially if it's your first supplier because they might
[01:20:36] your first supplier because they might have lower prices, maybe lowerQS,
[01:20:39] have lower prices, maybe lowerQS, they're more willing to work with a
[01:20:41] they're more willing to work with a beginner, someone who's just starting
[01:20:42] beginner, someone who's just starting out, all these things. So, you don't
[01:20:44] out, all these things. So, you don't want to cut them out completely. Right
[01:20:45] want to cut them out completely. Right now, if you're a more advanced seller
[01:20:47] now, if you're a more advanced seller and you've been selling for years, maybe
[01:20:49] and you've been selling for years, maybe you just want to work with people who
[01:20:50] you just want to work with people who are verified pro on on this website. So,
[01:20:54] are verified pro on on this website. So, that's one thing. And the the MOQ is
[01:20:56] that's one thing. And the the MOQ is really important because as a new
[01:20:59] really important because as a new seller, right, you don't want to have to
[01:21:01] seller, right, you don't want to have to buy 12,000 units. You know, you want to
[01:21:04] buy 12,000 units. You know, you want to be we recommend or I recommend starting

[01:21:15] allow you to hold to some inventory so you're ready to ship to Amazon when
[01:21:17] you're ready to ship to Amazon when you're running out of stock. The reason
[01:21:19] you're running out of stock. The reason this is important is because the one
[01:21:21] this is important is because the one thing that you want to avoid when
[01:21:23] thing that you want to avoid when selling on Amazon is running out of
[01:21:24] selling on Amazon is running out of inventory. So shipping 500 as a rule as
[01:21:28] inventory. So shipping 500 as a rule as a firsttime seller on Amazon could be
[01:21:32] a firsttime seller on Amazon could be the best thing that you could do because
[01:21:35] the best thing that you could do because you're playing it safe. Now, why don't
[01:21:36] you're playing it safe. Now, why don't you want to send 5,000 units right away?
[01:21:39] you want to send 5,000 units right away? The reason you don't want to do that is
[01:21:41] The reason you don't want to do that is you want to avoid long-term storage
[01:21:43] you want to avoid long-term storage fees. and that is if your inventory is
[01:21:45] fees. and that is if your inventory is sitting at Amazon for over six months,
[01:21:48] sitting at Amazon for over six months, Amazon will start to charge you
[01:21:50] Amazon will start to charge you long-term storage fees. So, it's really
[01:21:52] long-term storage fees. So, it's really important to avoid that. You don't want
[01:21:53] important to avoid that. You don't want to send too much inventory to Amazon.
[01:21:56] to send too much inventory to Amazon. So, 500 is almost like a very good
[01:21:59] So, 500 is almost like a very good estimate to making sure that you'll sell
[01:22:01] estimate to making sure that you'll sell out before the 6 months. And if you do
[01:22:04] out before the 6 months. And if you do everything that we tell you to have a
[01:22:05] everything that we tell you to have a successful launch, you will be able to
[01:22:07] successful launch, you will be able to sell those 500 units way sooner than 6
[01:22:10] sell those 500 units way sooner than 6 months. I mean, that's the goal. the
[01:22:12] months. I mean, that's the goal. the goal is to sell out in the first two to
[01:22:14] goal is to sell out in the first two to 3 months and then you have another set
[01:22:16] 3 months and then you have another set of inventory that you're ready to ship
[01:22:17] of inventory that you're ready to ship and that can save you from not running
[01:22:20] and that can save you from not running out of inventory and ranking really low.
[01:22:22] out of inventory and ranking really low. So anyway, going back to supplier MOQ.
[01:22:25] So anyway, going back to supplier MOQ. So that's the next thing that you want
[01:22:27] So that's the next thing that you want to communicate with your supplier to
[01:22:28] to communicate with your supplier to find out what is theQ that they going to
[01:22:31] find out what is theQ that they going to offer for you or they going to be able
[01:22:33] offer for you or they going to be able to give you. Some suppliers are going to
[01:22:35] to give you. Some suppliers are going to tell you is 5,000, you know, especially
[01:22:38] tell you is 5,000, you know, especially if you're creating something new. But
[01:22:40] if you're creating something new. But here's the secret and here's the trick
[01:22:42] here's the secret and here's the trick to finding suppliers that can help you
[01:22:44] to finding suppliers that can help you with low MOQ. And the way to do that is
[01:22:46] with low MOQ. And the way to do that is again you find suppliers that maybe have
[01:22:49] again you find suppliers that maybe have been selling for two years. That's one
[01:22:50] been selling for two years. That's one way. Big suppliers who are selling
[01:22:53] way. Big suppliers who are selling millions of dollars, which we'll talk
[01:22:55] millions of dollars, which we'll talk about that in a second. They might not
[01:22:57] about that in a second. They might not be too flexible to sell you a,000 unit.
[01:23:00] be too flexible to sell you a,000 unit. They don't need to do that, right?
[01:23:02] They don't need to do that, right? They'll work with other sellers who are
[01:23:04] They'll work with other sellers who are ordering 10,000 units or more. So you
[01:23:07] ordering 10,000 units or more. So you want to find a bit of a smaller supplier
[01:23:09] want to find a bit of a smaller supplier who might be able to work with you to
[01:23:11] who might be able to work with you to sell a less quantity. So the way to do
[01:23:14] sell a less quantity. So the way to do that is let's say we're going to check
[01:23:16] that is let's say we're going to check this supplier out. So you go over here
[01:23:18] this supplier out. So you go over here and you scroll down to see what is the
[01:23:21] and you scroll down to see what is the revenue of this supplier and you can see
[01:23:24] revenue of this supplier and you can see right here their online revenue for the
[01:23:26] right here their online revenue for the whole year is about a little over half a
[01:23:29] whole year is about a little over half a million dollars. So that's not bad,
[01:23:31] million dollars. So that's not bad, right? This is considered a small
[01:23:33] right? This is considered a small supplier. This is not a big supplier
[01:23:35] supplier. This is not a big supplier because some of the big suppliers, they
[01:23:37] because some of the big suppliers, they make over1 or $2 million a year in
[01:23:40] make over1 or $2 million a year in sales. This one has been selling for 14
[01:23:42] sales. This one has been selling for 14 years, for example. It's a verified pro
[01:23:45] years, for example. It's a verified pro supplier. So, you can see it right here.
[01:23:47] supplier. So, you can see it right here. They're showing you that they are
[01:23:49] They're showing you that they are selling about $2.8 million worth of
[01:23:53] selling about $2.8 million worth of sales every year. So, that's a big
[01:23:55] sales every year. So, that's a big supplier and they might not be willing
[01:23:57] supplier and they might not be willing to work with you to give you a,000
[01:24:00] to work with you to give you a,000 units, right? So, this is where where
[01:24:02] units, right? So, this is where where you're doing your research. So that's
[01:24:03] you're doing your research. So that's that's really important for you to help
[01:24:05] that's really important for you to help you filter out suppliers so you're not
[01:24:07] you filter out suppliers so you're not contacting a bunch of big suppliers and
[01:24:09] contacting a bunch of big suppliers and getting disappointed why you're not
[01:24:11] getting disappointed why you're not finding the moq that you desire. The
[01:24:13] finding the moq that you desire. The next thing I want to talk about is
[01:24:14] next thing I want to talk about is negotiation and communicating with your
[01:24:16] negotiation and communicating with your supplier. So it's it's really really
[01:24:19] supplier. So it's it's really really important that when you communicate with
[01:24:21] important that when you communicate with supplier to be as professional as
[01:24:23] supplier to be as professional as possible. You don't want to chat with
[01:24:24] possible. You don't want to chat with them as if you're chatting with your
[01:24:26] them as if you're chatting with your friend. Don't send them messages because
[01:24:28] friend. Don't send them messages because I know Alibaba allows you to chat with
[01:24:30] I know Alibaba allows you to chat with the suppliers right on their platform as
[01:24:33] the suppliers right on their platform as a chat box and you can kind of forget
[01:24:35] a chat box and you can kind of forget about yourself and start chatting with
[01:24:37] about yourself and start chatting with them in a very um friendly kind of way
[01:24:41] them in a very um friendly kind of way like you're texting your friend. You
[01:24:42] like you're texting your friend. You don't want to do that. You still want to
[01:24:45] don't want to do that. You still want to chat with them in a way that seems very
[01:24:47] chat with them in a way that seems very professional. And we have a lot of
[01:24:49] professional. And we have a lot of templates that we share with our
[01:24:51] templates that we share with our students in the course on how to
[01:24:52] students in the course on how to communicate with the suppliers, how to
[01:24:54] communicate with the suppliers, how to be very professional, how to negotiate
[01:24:56] be very professional, how to negotiate prices, how to negotiate withQS to get
[01:24:59] prices, how to negotiate withQS to get the best deal possible. So, it's really,
[01:25:02] the best deal possible. So, it's really, really important to spellch checkck, be
[01:25:04] really important to spellch checkck, be very professional, send them really nice
[01:25:06] very professional, send them really nice emails, explain who you are. If this is
[01:25:09] emails, explain who you are. If this is your first time selling, there's nothing
[01:25:11] your first time selling, there's nothing wrong with with saying that, saying
[01:25:12] wrong with with saying that, saying like, "I'm the, you know, CEO or the
[01:25:15] like, "I'm the, you know, CEO or the founder of this company. I'm planning to
[01:25:18] founder of this company. I'm planning to launch on Amazon and I'm really
[01:25:20] launch on Amazon and I'm really interested in your manufacturing
[01:25:22] interested in your manufacturing services and I would like to do this
[01:25:24] services and I would like to do this this and this. Can you give me quotes
[01:25:26] this and this. Can you give me quotes for three different you know uh price
[01:25:29] for three different you know uh price tiers for you know 500 unit,000 unit
[01:25:33] tiers for you know 500 unit,000 unit 5,000 unit and you can just give them an
[01:25:35] 5,000 unit and you can just give them an idea and make them feel like you're
[01:25:38] idea and make them feel like you're trying to become a long-term business
[01:25:40] trying to become a long-term business partner with them. So you want to draw
[01:25:42] partner with them. So you want to draw that image to the supplier to make sure
[01:25:45] that image to the supplier to make sure that they are going to be working with
[01:25:47] that they are going to be working with you. They're going to be your partner
[01:25:48] you. They're going to be your partner for long term. The next thing is to set
[01:25:52] for long term. The next thing is to set expectations with the supplier. So this
[01:25:55] expectations with the supplier. So this is really really important and I feel
[01:25:57] is really really important and I feel like a lot of new Amazon sellers kind of
[01:26:00] like a lot of new Amazon sellers kind of miss out on that. When you're about to
[01:26:01] miss out on that. When you're about to place an order with a supplier, make
[01:26:04] place an order with a supplier, make sure that you set the expectation. You
[01:26:06] sure that you set the expectation. You set the requirements that you need
[01:26:09] set the requirements that you need before you place the order. You want to
[01:26:11] before you place the order. You want to make sure that the supplier puts all
[01:26:13] make sure that the supplier puts all your requirements on the sales order.
[01:26:15] your requirements on the sales order. You want to be able to see them in
[01:26:17] You want to be able to see them in writing on the sales order before you
[01:26:19] writing on the sales order before you agree on it and set an expectation
[01:26:21] agree on it and set an expectation telling the supplier that you are going
[01:26:23] telling the supplier that you are going to do a quality check. You're going to
[01:26:24] to do a quality check. You're going to do an inspection before you pay the full
[01:26:28] do an inspection before you pay the full price for the production run. So the way
[01:26:30] price for the production run. So the way to do that, you pay maybe 20 or 30%
[01:26:33] to do that, you pay maybe 20 or 30% upfront and you agree on that before you
[01:26:36] upfront and you agree on that before you agree on the sales order. And make sure
[01:26:38] agree on the sales order. And make sure that you give your supplier as much
[01:26:40] that you give your supplier as much information as possible. You don't want
[01:26:42] information as possible. You don't want them fishing for information from you.
[01:26:44] them fishing for information from you. Another thing that I hear, you know,
[01:26:46] Another thing that I hear, you know, from a lot of new Amazon sellers, and
[01:26:48] from a lot of new Amazon sellers, and this is why they're afraid of, you know,
[01:26:50] this is why they're afraid of, you know, purchasing from Alibaba or sourcing from
[01:26:52] purchasing from Alibaba or sourcing from China, is that a lot of suppliers from
[01:26:55] China, is that a lot of suppliers from overseas, they tend to steal your
[01:26:57] overseas, they tend to steal your product idea and start selling it
[01:26:59] product idea and start selling it themselves on Amazon. So, how do we
[01:27:01] themselves on Amazon. So, how do we avoid that? One or the fastest way and
[01:27:04] avoid that? One or the fastest way and the most affordable way to do it is to
[01:27:07] the most affordable way to do it is to have them sign an NN agreement. And what
[01:27:10] have them sign an NN agreement. And what that stands for is a non-disclosure,
[01:27:13] that stands for is a non-disclosure, non-use, non-ircumvention
[01:27:16] non-use, non-ircumvention agreement. Now, an NN is more reliable
[01:27:20] agreement. Now, an NN is more reliable than an NDA in China. And you can find
[01:27:24] than an NDA in China. And you can find so many services, especially in China,
[01:27:26] so many services, especially in China, that can form this form for you. So,
[01:27:29] that can form this form for you. So, this is the cheapest and most affordable
[01:27:30] this is the cheapest and most affordable way to have your supplier agree not to
[01:27:34] way to have your supplier agree not to steal your product idea, so you can hold
[01:27:36] steal your product idea, so you can hold them accountable if anything happens in
[01:27:38] them accountable if anything happens in the future. a bit of a more expensive
[01:27:40] the future. a bit of a more expensive way or a more obviously this is more
[01:27:42] way or a more obviously this is more reliable because now legal you're
[01:27:44] reliable because now legal you're getting the law involved is to get
[01:27:46] getting the law involved is to get patents. So when you get a patent you
[01:27:49] patents. So when you get a patent you will protect your product legally from
[01:27:51] will protect your product legally from being sold anywhere else or copied
[01:27:53] being sold anywhere else or copied anywhere else. And there's two ways of
[01:27:55] anywhere else. And there's two ways of go doing this. Now you can get a patent
[01:27:58] go doing this. Now you can get a patent in China which is more respected by
[01:28:02] in China which is more respected by Chinese manufacturers than getting a US
[01:28:05] Chinese manufacturers than getting a US patent. And you could do that by hiring
[01:28:08] patent. And you could do that by hiring a service or a lawyer that can help you
[01:28:10] a service or a lawyer that can help you to put that together. But this is going
[01:28:12] to put that together. But this is going to cost a bit more money and it's going
[01:28:14] to cost a bit more money and it's going to take a bit longer time. However, it
[01:28:17] to take a bit longer time. However, it is a good way to make sure that your
[01:28:19] is a good way to make sure that your product is not going to be stolen. The
[01:28:21] product is not going to be stolen. The next thing is going to be a provisional
[01:28:23] next thing is going to be a provisional patent from the US, which is a quick
[01:28:26] patent from the US, which is a quick affordable. It costs about $100, maybe
[01:28:29] affordable. It costs about $100, maybe less to get it, and it covers you for
[01:28:31] less to get it, and it covers you for the next year while you're applying for
[01:28:34] the next year while you're applying for an actual patent. Another thing is
[01:28:35] an actual patent. Another thing is trademarks. That's going to protect your
[01:28:37] trademarks. That's going to protect your logo, your design, and more importantly,
[01:28:39] logo, your design, and more importantly, it's going to give you a brand registry
[01:28:40] it's going to give you a brand registry on Amazon, which we will cover a little
[01:28:42] on Amazon, which we will cover a little bit later. The next thing that you want
[01:28:44] bit later. The next thing that you want to do is ordering samples. I would say
[01:28:46] to do is ordering samples. I would say minimum three samples from three
[01:28:48] minimum three samples from three different suppliers. Once you get
[01:28:50] different suppliers. Once you get samples, now you want to start choosing
[01:28:52] samples, now you want to start choosing which supplier you want to work with.
[01:28:54] which supplier you want to work with. And there's different factors that you
[01:28:56] And there's different factors that you should keep in mind to decide which
[01:28:58] should keep in mind to decide which manufacturer to work with. One is going
[01:29:01] manufacturer to work with. One is going to be communication. Two is going to be
[01:29:03] to be communication. Two is going to be price. Three is going to be the quality
[01:29:06] price. Three is going to be the quality of the product. Some of the mistakes
[01:29:07] of the product. Some of the mistakes that I see people make as beginners are
[01:29:11] that I see people make as beginners are ordering too much. So that's that's one
[01:29:14] ordering too much. So that's that's one thing. Don't order too much product at
[01:29:16] thing. Don't order too much product at first because for two reasons. One is
[01:29:18] first because for two reasons. One is you want to avoid the long-term storage
[01:29:20] you want to avoid the long-term storage fees with Amazon and you don't want too
[01:29:22] fees with Amazon and you don't want too much stock sitting at your house.
[01:29:24] much stock sitting at your house. Another thing, the thousand units that
[01:29:26] Another thing, the thousand units that you ordered, what if something was
[01:29:28] you ordered, what if something was slightly off about them and you want to
[01:29:31] slightly off about them and you want to change that, right? So, like let's say
[01:29:33] change that, right? So, like let's say you're getting a ton of reviews and
[01:29:35] you're getting a ton of reviews and you're getting a ton of sales, but
[01:29:36] you're getting a ton of sales, but you're like, I I wish I could adjust
[01:29:38] you're like, I I wish I could adjust this minor thing, but you've placed a
[01:29:41] this minor thing, but you've placed a too much of a big order. Now, you're
[01:29:43] too much of a big order. Now, you're stuck with that for all these units to
[01:29:45] stuck with that for all these units to be sold before you can make that
[01:29:46] be sold before you can make that adjustment. So, the cool thing about
[01:29:48] adjustment. So, the cool thing about placing keeping it low to a,000 unit, it
[01:29:50] placing keeping it low to a,000 unit, it gives you that chance to, you know,
[01:29:52] gives you that chance to, you know, update your product, to upgrade it, to
[01:29:55] update your product, to upgrade it, to make that adjustment, to listen to the
[01:29:57] make that adjustment, to listen to the customer's feedback, to the reviews, and
[01:29:59] customer's feedback, to the reviews, and make those adjustments. So, that's
[01:30:01] make those adjustments. So, that's really important. The other mistake that
[01:30:02] really important. The other mistake that I see most Amazon sellers make is
[01:30:05] I see most Amazon sellers make is ordering too little. It could possibly
[01:30:07] ordering too little. It could possibly mean running out of stock. And when you
[01:30:09] mean running out of stock. And when you run out of stock, you tend to rank
[01:30:11] run out of stock, you tend to rank really low on Amazon. And it becomes
[01:30:13] really low on Amazon. And it becomes really hard to rank high and get back on
[01:30:17] really hard to rank high and get back on all that effort that you made to launch
[01:30:19] all that effort that you made to launch your product on Amazon. And we're going
[01:30:20] your product on Amazon. And we're going to talk about this a little bit later,
[01:30:22] to talk about this a little bit later, but ranking on Amazon is one of the most
[01:30:24] but ranking on Amazon is one of the most important thing. And taking advantage of
[01:30:26] important thing. And taking advantage of the launch is going to be really
[01:30:28] the launch is going to be really important. And once you do that, you get
[01:30:31] important. And once you do that, you get about 30 to 60 days of what we call the
[01:30:34] about 30 to 60 days of what we call the honeymoon phase of selling on Amazon.
[01:30:37] honeymoon phase of selling on Amazon. Because when you start selling a new
[01:30:38] Because when you start selling a new product, Amazon doesn't know how to rank
[01:30:41] product, Amazon doesn't know how to rank you. If you can start averaging, let's
[01:30:43] you. If you can start averaging, let's say five to 10 sales a day or
[01:30:46] say five to 10 sales a day or considerably close to what are the the
[01:30:48] considerably close to what are the the most top Amazon sellers in that
[01:30:50] most top Amazon sellers in that category, Amazon is going to think you
[01:30:52] category, Amazon is going to think you are one of the top sellers in that
[01:30:55] are one of the top sellers in that category and they're going to rank you
[01:30:56] category and they're going to rank you really high. So you start showing on top
[01:30:58] really high. So you start showing on top of the search results when selling on
[01:31:00] of the search results when selling on Amazon. One pro thing about ordering
[01:31:02] Amazon. One pro thing about ordering from China is that you are saving a lot
[01:31:04] from China is that you are saving a lot of money because the cost of labor is
[01:31:07] of money because the cost of labor is really low. One con to that is that we
[01:31:10] really low. One con to that is that we don't understand the labor acts in China
[01:31:13] don't understand the labor acts in China and maybe ethically we're not very fond
[01:31:16] and maybe ethically we're not very fond of how China conducts their labor over
[01:31:19] of how China conducts their labor over there. This is why a lot of people tend
[01:31:21] there. This is why a lot of people tend to prefer US-made products or other
[01:31:24] to prefer US-made products or other places in the world. Right? Another
[01:31:26] places in the world. Right? Another common thing about ordering from China,
[01:31:28] common thing about ordering from China, if planned right, it can be avoided. But
[01:31:31] if planned right, it can be avoided. But China tends to take one month off in
[01:31:33] China tends to take one month off in February for their New Year's. And if
[01:31:36] February for their New Year's. And if you don't plan correctly around that,
[01:31:39] you don't plan correctly around that, you might run out of stock and not be
[01:31:41] you might run out of stock and not be able to order till March. So, there's a
[01:31:44] able to order till March. So, there's a whole month that it's hard, it's going
[01:31:45] whole month that it's hard, it's going to be really hard for you to place an
[01:31:47] to be really hard for you to place an order when ordering from China. In a
[01:31:49] order when ordering from China. In a minute, I'm going to be talking about
[01:31:50] minute, I'm going to be talking about how to find manufacturers outside of
[01:31:52] how to find manufacturers outside of China. Keep in mind, Alibaba doesn't
[01:31:54] China. Keep in mind, Alibaba doesn't only host manufacturers in China.
[01:31:56] only host manufacturers in China. However, they are very China dominant.
[01:31:59] However, they are very China dominant. So, it most of the suppliers on there
[01:32:01] So, it most of the suppliers on there are going to be in China. The next thing
[01:32:03] are going to be in China. The next thing is is the time difference. Sometimes it
[01:32:06] is is the time difference. Sometimes it takes a whole day before you can hear
[01:32:08] takes a whole day before you can hear back from your supplier. Now, let's dive
[01:32:10] back from your supplier. Now, let's dive into the second biggest manufacturer
[01:32:13] into the second biggest manufacturer market in the world, and that's going to
[01:32:16] market in the world, and that's going to be the US. There's two ways to to find
[01:32:18] be the US. There's two ways to to find manufacturers, but that we're going to
[01:32:20] manufacturers, but that we're going to talk about. The first place is going to
[01:32:22] talk about. The first place is going to be Google. And Google is a good place to
[01:32:24] be Google. And Google is a good place to find manufacturers really anywhere, not
[01:32:26] find manufacturers really anywhere, not just in the US, but you could type
[01:32:28] just in the US, but you could type anything in here. So like if we put dog
[01:32:31] anything in here. So like if we put dog treat manufacturers, it's going to pop
[01:32:34] treat manufacturers, it's going to pop right up or of you finding a bunch of
[01:32:36] right up or of you finding a bunch of manufacturers on here, but that might
[01:32:39] manufacturers on here, but that might not be the most productive way to do it.
[01:32:41] not be the most productive way to do it. However, it is worth checking out. One
[01:32:44] However, it is worth checking out. One source that I want to talk about is
[01:32:46] source that I want to talk about is thomasnet.com.
[01:32:47] thomasnet.com. thomasminet.com
[01:32:49] thomasminet.com is really good for finding manufacturers
[01:32:52] is really good for finding manufacturers that are exclusively in the US. So, it's
[01:32:55] that are exclusively in the US. So, it's it's really easy. It's almost as easy as
[01:32:57] it's really easy. It's almost as easy as Alibaba, but there is a trick here and
[01:32:59] Alibaba, but there is a trick here and is a little bit different that not most
[01:33:01] is a little bit different that not most people are aware of. The easiest way to
[01:33:03] people are aware of. The easiest way to do it is to type in the type of product,
[01:33:05] do it is to type in the type of product, right? So, that's going to be the
[01:33:06] right? So, that's going to be the easiest way. Like, let's say you want to
[01:33:08] easiest way. Like, let's say you want to find a dog treat and you get a bunch of
[01:33:11] find a dog treat and you get a bunch of manufacturers that are selling private
[01:33:15] manufacturers that are selling private label dog treats. So that means they
[01:33:17] label dog treats. So that means they will put your own logo, your own design
[01:33:20] will put your own logo, your own design on the packaging and they'll sell it for
[01:33:22] on the packaging and they'll sell it for you. The other way is to find actual
[01:33:24] you. The other way is to find actual manufacturers and this is this can be
[01:33:26] manufacturers and this is this can be private label or it can be you know
[01:33:28] private label or it can be you know someone who you can work with from
[01:33:29] someone who you can work with from scratch. And the cool thing about
[01:33:31] scratch. And the cool thing about thomasnet.com you can filter these
[01:33:34] thomasnet.com you can filter these manufacturers based on quality
[01:33:36] manufacturers based on quality certifications. So this is something
[01:33:38] certifications. So this is something that we love about US manufacturing is
[01:33:42] that we love about US manufacturing is that the quality control here is superb.
[01:33:44] that the quality control here is superb. You can literally filter on
[01:33:46] You can literally filter on thomasminomas.com based on
[01:33:48] thomasminomas.com based on certifications and that's when you start
[01:33:50] certifications and that's when you start doing your research. That is really
[01:33:51] doing your research. That is really important. And the next thing I want to
[01:33:52] important. And the next thing I want to show you is the region. So if you want
[01:33:55] show you is the region. So if you want to find a supplier that is close by to
[01:33:58] to find a supplier that is close by to you, you can literally put your zip code
[01:34:01] you, you can literally put your zip code onto there and you can filter by how
[01:34:03] onto there and you can filter by how many miles that you want to find the
[01:34:05] many miles that you want to find the supplier. And what that does is that if
[01:34:08] supplier. And what that does is that if you want to be able to visit your
[01:34:10] you want to be able to visit your manufacturer, you could do that. And
[01:34:12] manufacturer, you could do that. And this could actually save you a lot of
[01:34:13] this could actually save you a lot of money on shipping. And you you can avoid
[01:34:16] money on shipping. And you you can avoid overseas shipping, you know, using air
[01:34:19] overseas shipping, you know, using air shipping or sea shipping, which can
[01:34:21] shipping or sea shipping, which can cost, you know, about $1,000 or a few
[01:34:23] cost, you know, about $1,000 or a few thousand dollars depending on the weight
[01:34:25] thousand dollars depending on the weight and the quantity of the product. The
[01:34:27] and the quantity of the product. The next thing that I want to talk about
[01:34:28] next thing that I want to talk about that's really unique and different uh
[01:34:31] that's really unique and different uh about thomasnet.com
[01:34:33] about thomasnet.com is the way you search for products. So
[01:34:37] is the way you search for products. So let's say for example, you want to
[01:34:39] let's say for example, you want to create a new toy. So, let's say you're
[01:34:41] create a new toy. So, let's say you're developing a new product that's made out
[01:34:43] developing a new product that's made out of plastic. So, you're looking for
[01:34:45] of plastic. So, you're looking for something that's, you know, made via
[01:34:47] something that's, you know, made via injection molding. So, the one thing
[01:34:49] injection molding. So, the one thing that you're going to do, learn how the
[01:34:51] that you're going to do, learn how the product is made. And you can type in
[01:34:53] product is made. And you can type in here plastic injection molding and
[01:34:56] here plastic injection molding and you'll see a a ton of suppliers. This is
[01:34:59] you'll see a a ton of suppliers. This is when you start filtering. Also, again,
[01:35:01] when you start filtering. Also, again, certificates is a thing. One of the most
[01:35:03] certificates is a thing. One of the most important ones that I look for is, you
[01:35:05] important ones that I look for is, you know, ISO 901. And I think ISO 90001
[01:35:10] know, ISO 901. And I think ISO 90001 should be something that all
[01:35:11] should be something that all manufacturers should have. So I try to
[01:35:13] manufacturers should have. So I try to filter through that. The next thing that
[01:35:14] filter through that. The next thing that I want to talk about is uh if you're
[01:35:17] I want to talk about is uh if you're trying to get suppliers in Mexico, one
[01:35:19] trying to get suppliers in Mexico, one of the best websites that I recommend is
[01:35:23] of the best websites that I recommend is gima.com, which is great for
[01:35:26] gima.com, which is great for manufacturers that are in Mexico and uh
[01:35:29] manufacturers that are in Mexico and uh I think South America in general. It's a
[01:35:32] I think South America in general. It's a really cool website to check out if
[01:35:34] really cool website to check out if you're trying to source things in in
[01:35:36] you're trying to source things in in Mexico and or South America. One tip
[01:35:39] Mexico and or South America. One tip though that I would give you is when
[01:35:41] though that I would give you is when you're sourcing in other countries, one
[01:35:44] you're sourcing in other countries, one of two things you you want to make sure
[01:35:45] of two things you you want to make sure that you're doing. one sending someone
[01:35:48] that you're doing. one sending someone to talk with the supplier to make sure
[01:35:50] to talk with the supplier to make sure that you're verifying the supplier
[01:35:52] that you're verifying the supplier because I've heard stories of other
[01:35:54] because I've heard stories of other sellers that are just working through
[01:35:56] sellers that are just working through the internet talking to suppliers not
[01:35:59] the internet talking to suppliers not knowing that this is not even a
[01:36:01] knowing that this is not even a supplier. They're not even a
[01:36:02] supplier. They're not even a manufacturer. They're just a uh a
[01:36:04] manufacturer. They're just a uh a trading company or not even it could be
[01:36:06] trading company or not even it could be a person who's acting as a supplier. So
[01:36:09] a person who's acting as a supplier. So you want to try to avoid that by either
[01:36:11] you want to try to avoid that by either hiring someone over there to go and
[01:36:14] hiring someone over there to go and inspect it for you or you go by
[01:36:16] inspect it for you or you go by yourself. You travel and you go check it
[01:36:18] yourself. You travel and you go check it out yourself to make sure you avoid any
[01:36:21] out yourself to make sure you avoid any big, you know, mistakes like that.
[01:36:23] big, you know, mistakes like that. Another great resource is India, which I
[01:36:26] Another great resource is India, which I hear a lot of people like to source from
[01:36:28] hear a lot of people like to source from there, and I think indiammart.com
[01:36:31] there, and I think indiammart.com is a great place for that. So you can go
[01:36:33] is a great place for that. So you can go to indrart.com,
[01:36:35] to indrart.com, find uh products or manufacturers that
[01:36:38] find uh products or manufacturers that make different products and go from
[01:36:40] make different products and go from there. Now you can find really great
[01:36:42] there. Now you can find really great products in India that you couldn't find
[01:36:44] products in India that you couldn't find anywhere else. But make sure that you're
[01:36:46] anywhere else. But make sure that you're doing your homework. You're verifying
[01:36:48] doing your homework. You're verifying that this is a legit business. The next
[01:36:51] that this is a legit business. The next place that I'm going to talk about is
[01:36:52] place that I'm going to talk about is Europe. If you're trying to find
[01:36:54] Europe. If you're trying to find manufacturers in Europe is
[01:36:56] manufacturers in Europe is europages.com.
[01:36:58] europages.com. And this is a great place to, you know,
[01:37:01] And this is a great place to, you know, source um manufacturers in Europe. It's
[01:37:04] source um manufacturers in Europe. It's actually the largest website for
[01:37:06] actually the largest website for manufacturers in uh Europe. Again, a lot
[01:37:10] manufacturers in uh Europe. Again, a lot of the principles that I talked about
[01:37:13] of the principles that I talked about earlier apply here. And this could be
[01:37:15] earlier apply here. And this could be fun. In the end of the day, like enjoy
[01:37:17] fun. In the end of the day, like enjoy this process, enjoy this journey. You
[01:37:19] this process, enjoy this journey. You know, it could be it could be exciting
[01:37:20] know, it could be it could be exciting and it could, you know, cause you to be
[01:37:23] and it could, you know, cause you to be nervous because this is the first time
[01:37:24] nervous because this is the first time you're doing it, but this is how you

[01:37:28] learn, you know, and we've are here to support you every step of the way. If
[01:37:31] support you every step of the way. If you're someone who doesn't want to do
[01:37:32] you're someone who doesn't want to do this on their own, you want to be part
[01:37:34] this on their own, you want to be part of a community, that's what we're here
[01:37:35] of a community, that's what we're here for. The next one I want to talk about
[01:37:37] for. The next one I want to talk about is globalources.com.
[01:37:39] is globalources.com. So, these people don't sell to
[01:37:41] So, these people don't sell to individuals. make sure that your
[01:37:43] individuals. make sure that your business is set up, which we're going to
[01:37:45] business is set up, which we're going to talk about in a bit. But this is a a
[01:37:48] talk about in a bit. But this is a a website that has a lot of verified
[01:37:50] website that has a lot of verified suppliers, legit suppliers, and they're
[01:37:53] suppliers, legit suppliers, and they're worldwide. There's over 1.5 million
[01:37:55] worldwide. There's over 1.5 million suppliers, and they are real
[01:37:57] suppliers, and they are real manufacturers, not trading companies
[01:38:00] manufacturers, not trading companies because when you're on on Alibaba, you
[01:38:02] because when you're on on Alibaba, you could be talking to a manufacturer, but
[01:38:05] could be talking to a manufacturer, but they're in fact a trading company.
[01:38:07] they're in fact a trading company. They're not even a manufacturer. So,
[01:38:09] They're not even a manufacturer. So, they're like a broker. So, the last
[01:38:10] they're like a broker. So, the last thing that I want to talk about, guys,
[01:38:12] thing that I want to talk about, guys, is going to trade shows, going to
[01:38:14] is going to trade shows, going to expose. This could be a great way to
[01:38:16] expose. This could be a great way to meet manufacturers that are in the
[01:38:18] meet manufacturers that are in the category that you're trying to get into.
[01:38:21] category that you're trying to get into. You can go to like food expos
[01:38:24] You can go to like food expos or you can go to manufacturing trade
[01:38:26] or you can go to manufacturing trade shows and find people there and network
[01:38:29] shows and find people there and network and figure out how did they make their
[01:38:31] and figure out how did they make their product. Having a community, meeting
[01:38:33] product. Having a community, meeting people is really, really important when
[01:38:35] people is really, really important when you become when you start your own
[01:38:37] you become when you start your own business. when you enter into the
[01:38:38] business. when you enter into the business world, it's really important to
[01:38:40] business world, it's really important to expand that. The more people you meet,
[01:38:42] expand that. The more people you meet, the more opportunities you have. So, I'm
[01:38:44] the more opportunities you have. So, I'm gonna leave you with that and I'm gonna
[01:38:46] gonna leave you with that and I'm gonna pass it to Travis, who's going to take
[01:38:48] pass it to Travis, who's going to take over.
[01:38:49] over. >> What up? I'm going to show you how to
[01:38:51] >> What up? I'm going to show you how to sign up for an Amazon seller account.
[01:38:53] sign up for an Amazon seller account. And the first step is to go to
[01:38:54] And the first step is to go to sell.amazon.com.
[01:38:57] sell.amazon.com. And all you have to do to sign up for an
[01:38:58] And all you have to do to sign up for an Amazon seller account is click this sign
[01:39:00] Amazon seller account is click this sign up button. But there is a second way
[01:39:03] up button. But there is a second way that you can sign up for your Amazon
[01:39:04] that you can sign up for your Amazon seller account is actually free. And
[01:39:06] seller account is actually free. And this is something that not a lot of
[01:39:08] this is something that not a lot of people do, but if you want to sign up to
[01:39:10] people do, but if you want to sign up to become an individual seller, you can
[01:39:11] become an individual seller, you can click on this button right here. Now,
[01:39:13] click on this button right here. Now, for most people watching this video, I
[01:39:15] for most people watching this video, I would recommend not doing the individual
[01:39:17] would recommend not doing the individual seller plan. Like, if you're looking to
[01:39:18] seller plan. Like, if you're looking to start a legitimate business, you're
[01:39:20] start a legitimate business, you're going to want to click on this sign up
[01:39:22] going to want to click on this sign up button. And the reason is because even
[01:39:23] button. And the reason is because even though the individual seller account is
[01:39:25] though the individual seller account is free and the professional seller account
[01:39:27] free and the professional seller account is $39.99 a month, with the individual
[01:39:30] is $39.99 a month, with the individual seller account, you have to pay an
[01:39:31] seller account, you have to pay an additional 99 for every item that you
[01:39:34] additional 99 for every item that you sell. However, with the professional
[01:39:35] sell. However, with the professional selling plan, you can sell unlimited
[01:39:37] selling plan, you can sell unlimited items. You're only going to have to pay
[01:39:38] items. You're only going to have to pay the 15% Amazon fee, which I'll talk
[01:39:41] the 15% Amazon fee, which I'll talk about later in this video how you can
[01:39:42] about later in this video how you can get that down from 15% down to 5%. But
[01:39:45] get that down from 15% down to 5%. But the individual seller plans really meant
[01:39:46] the individual seller plans really meant for people that are only selling a
[01:39:48] for people that are only selling a couple units, where the professional
[01:39:49] couple units, where the professional selling plan is made for people that are
[01:39:51] selling plan is made for people that are starting an Amazon business. And we'll
[01:39:53] starting an Amazon business. And we'll talk about how you can get $50,000 in

[01:39:59] here, get 10% back on your first $50,000 in branded sales. We'll be talking about
[01:40:01] in branded sales. We'll be talking about all of that, but the first step to sign
[01:40:02] all of that, but the first step to sign up for your Amazon seller account is to
[01:40:04] up for your Amazon seller account is to click on the sign up button. Now, you're
[01:40:07] click on the sign up button. Now, you're going to log in. And if you don't

[01:50:29] finally, fourth, we'll talk about building a pre-launch group. You can do
[01:50:31] building a pre-launch group. You can do any one of these things, but everything
[01:50:33] any one of these things, but everything will work the more you put into it and
[01:50:35] will work the more you put into it and the more that you do together. AJ's
[01:50:37] the more that you do together. AJ's story. We've talked about him a few
[01:50:38] story. We've talked about him a few times here. He was one of our first
[01:50:40] times here. He was one of our first students in the passion product formula.
[01:50:43] students in the passion product formula. He was a bartender, lost his job during

[01:50:50] used his expertise in bartending to create what we have here is cocktail
[01:50:52] create what we have here is cocktail cards. Cocktail cards, his flashcard
[01:50:54] cards. Cocktail cards, his flashcard deck of cocktails. We actually have it
[01:50:56] deck of cocktails. We actually have it sitting right behind me here. We can
[01:50:57] sitting right behind me here. We can break it out in a bit to show you guys.
[01:50:59] break it out in a bit to show you guys. Actually, all these products that you
[01:51:00] Actually, all these products that you see behind us, these are all our
[01:51:02] see behind us, these are all our students who have launched their
[01:51:03] students who have launched their products on Amazon that are going on to
[01:51:05] products on Amazon that are going on to do hundreds of thousands, hundreds of
[01:51:08] do hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dollars selling their
[01:51:09] thousands of dollars selling their products on Amazon. Each one of these
[01:51:11] products on Amazon. Each one of these behind us is a success case. And
[01:51:13] behind us is a success case. And honestly, there's probably a few on here
[01:51:14] honestly, there's probably a few on here that we don't even have featured just
[01:51:16] that we don't even have featured just given how many students have launched
[01:51:17] given how many students have launched products. But if you guys go on and
[01:51:19] products. But if you guys go on and launch a product in our course and you
[01:51:21] launch a product in our course and you message us once you launch, we'll put
[01:51:22] message us once you launch, we'll put your product right behind us. You can be
[01:51:24] your product right behind us. You can be part of Travis's YouTube journey in all
[01:51:25] part of Travis's YouTube journey in all of his videos going forward. So that
[01:51:27] of his videos going forward. So that should be some inspiration for you to
[01:51:29] should be some inspiration for you to get started. But anyways, he took his
[01:51:31] get started. But anyways, he took his expertise, launched this product, and as
[01:51:33] expertise, launched this product, and as we mentioned, went on to do half a
[01:51:35] we mentioned, went on to do half a million dollars a year. But the question
[01:51:37] million dollars a year. But the question is, how did he get there? He didn't come
[01:51:39] is, how did he get there? He didn't come from nowhere. I mean, he was doing stuff
[01:51:40] from nowhere. I mean, he was doing stuff before this. So, how did he go from not
[01:51:43] before this. So, how did he go from not having any re from not having any brand,
[01:51:44] having any re from not having any brand, from not having any followers to
[01:51:46] from not having any followers to launching a product like this? He raised
[01:51:48] launching a product like this? He raised $100,000. This is in euros, but it's
[01:51:50] $100,000. This is in euros, but it's just about $100,000 on Indiegogo for his
[01:51:54] just about $100,000 on Indiegogo for his product. Now, if you don't know about
[01:51:55] product. Now, if you don't know about Indiegogo, Indiegogo and Kickstarter
[01:51:57] Indiegogo, Indiegogo and Kickstarter will both let you raise money for a
[01:52:00] will both let you raise money for a project before you launch it. But let's
[01:52:02] project before you launch it. But let's just say you have zero dollars and you
[01:52:04] just say you have zero dollars and you need $10,000 to manufacture your
[01:52:07] need $10,000 to manufacture your product. You can start a Kickstarter and
[01:52:09] product. You can start a Kickstarter and raise $10,000 from people who are
[01:52:11] raise $10,000 from people who are interested in your idea to then pay your
[01:52:14] interested in your idea to then pay your manufacturer to actually create your
[01:52:15] manufacturer to actually create your product. That's the process we follow
[01:52:18] product. That's the process we follow with the passion product. And some
[01:52:20] with the passion product. And some people ought to do it, some people
[01:52:21] people ought to do it, some people don't. AJ was able to raise $100,000. an
[01:52:24] don't. AJ was able to raise $100,000. an incredible amount. And here's how he was

[01:53:35] a million dollars a year since he had launched this product almost 5 years
[01:53:36] launched this product almost 5 years ago. Now, there's four tools we're going
[01:53:38] ago. Now, there's four tools we're going to talk about utilizing store form
[01:53:39] to talk about utilizing store form content. The first one, Instagram reel,
[01:53:41] content. The first one, Instagram reel, the second one, Tik Toks, the third one,
[01:53:43] the second one, Tik Toks, the third one, YouTube shorts, and fourth we'll talk
[01:53:45] YouTube shorts, and fourth we'll talk about viral hacking. Now, why do I
[01:53:48] about viral hacking. Now, why do I recommend these programs? Because all
[01:53:50] recommend these programs? Because all these programs are promoting short form
[01:53:52] these programs are promoting short form content. These apps like Tik Tok and
[01:53:54] content. These apps like Tik Tok and Instagram, they want people to start
[01:53:57] Instagram, they want people to start posting short form content. So they'll
[01:53:59] posting short form content. So they'll reward you in the form of engagement and
[01:54:01] reward you in the form of engagement and exposure. So if you're a business or a
[01:54:03] exposure. So if you're a business or a person and you make a post using short
[01:54:05] person and you make a post using short form content on one of these three
[01:54:07] form content on one of these three platforms, they will be super likely to
[01:54:09] platforms, they will be super likely to push your content out. They want to get
[01:54:10] push your content out. They want to get people to your content. I can make a
[01:54:12] people to your content. I can make a content about my product, Performance
[01:54:14] content about my product, Performance Gum, and Tik Tok will push it out to a
[01:54:17] Gum, and Tik Tok will push it out to a couple thousand people. And then that's
[01:54:18] couple thousand people. And then that's a couple thousand people that had no
[01:54:19] a couple thousand people that had no idea what my product was that now know
[01:54:22] idea what my product was that now know the product and got it through exposure.
[01:54:23] the product and got it through exposure. And it's all about getting on there and
[01:54:25] And it's all about getting on there and doing it. You look at small businesses.
[01:54:27] doing it. You look at small businesses. Short form content equals loyal
[01:54:29] Short form content equals loyal customers by getting in front of their
[01:54:31] customers by getting in front of their face, getting that exposure that these
[01:54:33] face, getting that exposure that these companies are basically offering out
[01:54:34] companies are basically offering out there for free. How to succeed with
[01:54:36] there for free. How to succeed with short form content. Number one, you
[01:54:38] short form content. Number one, you start with a hook. You have to lock
[01:54:40] start with a hook. You have to lock people in. I recommend for anybody
[01:54:42] people in. I recommend for anybody starting to make content for the first
[01:54:43] starting to make content for the first time. I hear a lot of people, one of the
[01:54:45] time. I hear a lot of people, one of the biggest things I hear is people come to
[01:54:46] biggest things I hear is people come to me in the program and they're like, "I
[01:54:48] me in the program and they're like, "I just really don't want to make content.
[01:54:49] just really don't want to make content. It's just too hard for me." It's a
[01:54:51] It's just too hard for me." It's a learned thing for everyone, right?
[01:54:53] learned thing for everyone, right? Everyone starts somewhere and has to
[01:54:56] Everyone starts somewhere and has to learn the ropes and how to do it. And by
[01:54:58] learn the ropes and how to do it. And by getting on TikTok, by getting on
[01:55:00] getting on TikTok, by getting on Instagram reels and seeing what other
[01:55:02] Instagram reels and seeing what other people are doing, you can start to
[01:55:04] people are doing, you can start to familiarize yourself with it, get
[01:55:05] familiarize yourself with it, get comfortable. But then at some point, you
[01:55:07] comfortable. But then at some point, you have to start creating. And the first
[01:55:08] have to start creating. And the first thing is start with a hook, something
[01:55:09] thing is start with a hook, something that gets someone's attention. They do
[01:55:11] that gets someone's attention. They do not want you to know about this secret.
[01:55:13] not want you to know about this secret. Dive into the product. If you're on the
[01:55:14] Dive into the product. If you're on the carnivore diet, you need to know this.
[01:55:16] carnivore diet, you need to know this. That could be something for our product,
[01:55:18] That could be something for our product, carnivore electrolytes. You hook them
[01:55:20] carnivore electrolytes. You hook them in. And it's constantly seeing what
[01:55:22] in. And it's constantly seeing what other people are doing for their hooks
[01:55:23] other people are doing for their hooks and using them. But think about what
[01:55:25] and using them. But think about what would capture your attention. If I was
[01:55:26] would capture your attention. If I was on the carnivore diet, I need to know
[01:55:27] on the carnivore diet, I need to know this. Okay, I better keep watching.
[01:55:29] this. Okay, I better keep watching. Something that gets someone's attention.
[01:55:30] Something that gets someone's attention. Get people's attention, lock them in,
[01:55:32] Get people's attention, lock them in, and keep going from there. And so once
[01:55:34] and keep going from there. And so once you get the hook, you got to keep the
[01:55:36] you get the hook, you got to keep the engagement high. You know, keep the
[01:55:37] engagement high. You know, keep the story. You can't drag on. It's short
[01:55:39] story. You can't drag on. It's short form content. You keep the idea and you
[01:55:41] form content. You keep the idea and you condense it down and you make it work.
[01:55:43] condense it down and you make it work. You got to be careful with every single
[01:55:44] You got to be careful with every single line. Don't say anything it that doesn't
[01:55:46] line. Don't say anything it that doesn't need to be said. You're keeping the
[01:55:47] need to be said. You're keeping the elements of the story without any of the
[01:55:49] elements of the story without any of the bloat around it. Number three, as I
[01:55:52] bloat around it. Number three, as I mentioned, copy what others are doing.
[01:55:54] mentioned, copy what others are doing. Funnel hacking and short hacking is the
[01:55:56] Funnel hacking and short hacking is the best thing you can possibly do in the
[01:55:57] best thing you can possibly do in the space. If someone has a video that went
[01:55:59] space. If someone has a video that went viral, how do you go viral? You borrow
[01:56:02] viral, how do you go viral? You borrow from their success with your product.
[01:56:04] from their success with your product. For instance, you see someone that
[01:56:05] For instance, you see someone that promoted their product and you say,
[01:56:07] promoted their product and you say, "Okay, well, let me take this same idea
[01:56:09] "Okay, well, let me take this same idea and bring it over to my market and use
[01:56:11] and bring it over to my market and use it to promote my product by saying the
[01:56:13] it to promote my product by saying the same hook they used by doing the same
[01:56:15] same hook they used by doing the same storyline, but shifting it around to
[01:56:17] storyline, but shifting it around to your yours." The whole space is
[01:56:19] your yours." The whole space is constantly about borrowing and taking
[01:56:20] constantly about borrowing and taking inspiration for others, putting it into
[01:56:22] inspiration for others, putting it into your own words in order to grow your
[01:56:24] your own words in order to grow your product. Number four, great strategy is
[01:56:26] product. Number four, great strategy is creating a loop. If you use short form
[01:56:28] creating a loop. If you use short form content, you know it when they go around
[01:56:30] content, you know it when they go around to the end of the video and you don't
[01:56:32] to the end of the video and you don't realize it ended because it's connected
[01:56:34] realize it ended because it's connected together. So starting it off ending it
[01:56:36] together. So starting it off ending it in a way the video loops and you can
[01:56:38] in a way the video loops and you can keep watching it without realizing it.
[01:56:39] keep watching it without realizing it. The algorithm basically will keep
[01:56:41] The algorithm basically will keep showing a video up more and more
[01:56:43] showing a video up more and more depending on how many people stayed
[01:56:44] depending on how many people stayed watching it for the first 5 seconds.
[01:56:46] watching it for the first 5 seconds. That's basically the uh stay on rate.
[01:56:48] That's basically the uh stay on rate. And then the retention rate, how many
[01:56:50] And then the retention rate, how many how many seconds did they stay on the
[01:56:52] how many seconds did they stay on the video for? And if they stay on for more
[01:56:54] video for? And if they stay on for more than one goaround, you're getting an
[01:56:56] than one goaround, you're getting an over 100% retention rate. And that is
[01:56:58] over 100% retention rate. And that is amazing for the potential for your video
[01:57:00] amazing for the potential for your video to go viral. Number five, post daily at
[01:57:02] to go viral. Number five, post daily at least. These programs reward
[01:57:04] least. These programs reward consistency. If you're posting on Tik
[01:57:06] consistency. If you're posting on Tik Tok, Instagram, get a post up every
[01:57:09] Tok, Instagram, get a post up every single day. And the algorithms will
[01:57:12] single day. And the algorithms will reward you. With our YouTube channel,
[01:57:14] reward you. With our YouTube channel, the more we post, the more exposure we
[01:57:16] the more we post, the more exposure we get. And that's because YouTube is
[01:57:17] get. And that's because YouTube is rewarding us for being consistent and
[01:57:19] rewarding us for being consistent and posting all the time. And the same thing
[01:57:21] posting all the time. And the same thing can be the case for you. You know, so
[01:57:23] can be the case for you. You know, so many people worry about getting started.
[01:57:25] many people worry about getting started. They're like, "Oh, I'm just not good at
[01:57:27] They're like, "Oh, I'm just not good at it." No one is good at to get started. I
[01:57:29] it." No one is good at to get started. I wasn't good at any of this stuff when I
[01:57:30] wasn't good at any of this stuff when I was getting started, and it just took
[01:57:31] was getting started, and it just took practice. It took creating, figuring out
[01:57:33] practice. It took creating, figuring out what's working, diving into the space.
[01:57:35] what's working, diving into the space. But if you aren't making content on
[01:57:36] But if you aren't making content on social media, you are leaving so many
[01:57:39] social media, you are leaving so many customers on the table. You're like, I
[01:57:42] customers on the table. You're like, I can't even like tell you how much
[01:57:43] can't even like tell you how much exposure you're missing out on. If you
[01:57:45] exposure you're missing out on. If you aren't successful and you aren't using
[01:57:46] aren't successful and you aren't using social media, then the number one
[01:57:48] social media, then the number one obvious thing to do would start short
[01:57:51] obvious thing to do would start short form social media. And then the biggest
[01:57:52] form social media. And then the biggest one, number six here, is always have an
[01:57:56] one, number six here, is always have an offer. A big another problem, if you're
[01:57:58] offer. A big another problem, if you're posting on social media and you don't
[01:58:00] posting on social media and you don't have anything to direct people to, it's
[01:58:02] have anything to direct people to, it's wasted customers. You can't just hope
[01:58:04] wasted customers. You can't just hope those people are going to come back. You
[01:58:05] those people are going to come back. You have to have an offer. An offer can be
[01:58:07] have to have an offer. An offer can be as simple as join my email list. That's
[01:58:09] as simple as join my email list. That's an offer. If you aren't selling your
[01:58:11] an offer. If you aren't selling your product yet, at least be building an
[01:58:12] product yet, at least be building an email list. my product creation group
[01:58:14] email list. my product creation group where you can funnel people to a group.
[01:58:16] where you can funnel people to a group. It can be pre-order my product on
[01:58:18] It can be pre-order my product on Kickstarter. You can drive people to a
[01:58:20] Kickstarter. You can drive people to a pre-order of a product or it could be
[01:58:21] pre-order of a product or it could be buy my product on Amazon. But there
[01:58:23] buy my product on Amazon. But there needs to be an offer that you're
[01:58:24] needs to be an offer that you're channeling people towards so all this
[01:58:26] channeling people towards so all this traffic isn't for nothing. You got to
[01:58:28] traffic isn't for nothing. You got to have a call to action. And if you put
[01:58:30] have a call to action. And if you put all these things in action, daily
[01:58:32] all these things in action, daily posting, looking what others are doing,
[01:58:34] posting, looking what others are doing, good hooks, good engagement, and always
[01:58:36] good hooks, good engagement, and always having an offer, then you will have
[01:58:38] having an offer, then you will have success with short form content. The
[01:58:40] success with short form content. The next thing we want to talk about is
[01:58:42] next thing we want to talk about is utilizing influencers. Influencers can
[01:58:44] utilizing influencers. Influencers can be your best friend. People buy their
[01:58:47] be your best friend. People buy their favorite creators products their
[01:58:49] favorite creators products their favorite creators recommend. Right here

[01:59:10] product given who he is. So influencer marketing is the big thing in 2025. It's
[01:59:13] marketing is the big thing in 2025. It's only going to continue to grow. And
[01:59:15] only going to continue to grow. And tapping into influencers to promote your
[01:59:17] tapping into influencers to promote your product is one of the best things that
[01:59:19] product is one of the best things that you can do. And some people, if you're
[01:59:20] you can do. And some people, if you're really, really afraid to make short form
[01:59:22] really, really afraid to make short form content, you can have influencers do it
[01:59:24] content, you can have influencers do it for you, which we'll talk about in a
[01:59:25] for you, which we'll talk about in a second. Although I recommend you tap
[01:59:27] second. Although I recommend you tap into both. So let's take a look right
[01:59:28] into both. So let's take a look right here at this myth. You need a large
[01:59:31] here at this myth. You need a large budget to work with influencers. This
[01:59:33] budget to work with influencers. This myth is completely false. And the secret
[01:59:36] myth is completely false. And the secret is micro influencers. If we look at this
[01:59:39] is micro influencers. If we look at this graph right here, the types of
[01:59:40] graph right here, the types of influencers, this is uh a little graph
[01:59:42] influencers, this is uh a little graph from social pilot right here, and they
[01:59:44] from social pilot right here, and they show this graph. We're focusing on the
[01:59:46] show this graph. We're focusing on the bottom half. We're focusing on that
[01:59:48] bottom half. We're focusing on that 100,000 to 10,000 and that 1,000 to
[01:59:50] 100,000 to 10,000 and that 1,000 to 10,000. These are influencers that we
[01:59:52] 10,000. These are influencers that we can easily tap into that will promote
[01:59:54] can easily tap into that will promote our product that we don't need to have a
[01:59:55] our product that we don't need to have a ton of money to work with and we can
[01:59:57] ton of money to work with and we can still have great results. So, let's look
[02:00:00] still have great results. So, let's look at how that is. Why micro influencers?
[02:00:03] at how that is. Why micro influencers? Number one, it's easy to connect and
[02:00:04] Number one, it's easy to connect and access them. You can message them.
[02:00:06] access them. You can message them. They'll get back to you. They're eager
[02:00:07] They'll get back to you. They're eager to work with you. They're reliable. A
[02:00:10] to work with you. They're reliable. A lot of micro influencers are just eager
[02:00:11] lot of micro influencers are just eager to do deals. They have to. They have to
[02:00:13] to do deals. They have to. They have to be reliable if they want to get deals.
[02:00:15] be reliable if they want to get deals. They don't have the abundance of being
[02:00:16] They don't have the abundance of being an super in- demand person. So, they
[02:00:18] an super in- demand person. So, they have to be reliable if they want to get
[02:00:20] have to be reliable if they want to get deals. There's abundant. There's a lot
[02:00:22] deals. There's abundant. There's a lot more micro influencers than there are
[02:00:24] more micro influencers than there are macro influencers. So, you can stack and
[02:00:25] macro influencers. So, you can stack and work with 10, 20, 100, a thousand. We've
[02:00:29] work with 10, 20, 100, a thousand. We've probably worked with 500 influencers for
[02:00:31] probably worked with 500 influencers for carnivore electrolytes because there's
[02:00:33] carnivore electrolytes because there's tons and tons of these micro influencers
[02:00:35] tons and tons of these micro influencers we can work with. And then utilize large
[02:00:38] we can work with. And then utilize large numbers. If they're abundant, we can
[02:00:39] numbers. If they're abundant, we can utilize this and work with large numbers
[02:00:41] utilize this and work with large numbers of them. And the best thing, number
[02:00:43] of them. And the best thing, number five, is micro influencers will do free
[02:00:46] five, is micro influencers will do free or for product deals. Meaning, if you're
[02:00:48] or for product deals. Meaning, if you're working with a macro influencer, they
[02:00:49] working with a macro influencer, they might say, "Okay, I'll do a post. Pay me
[02:00:51] might say, "Okay, I'll do a post. Pay me $100,000." And you're like, "Oh, I don't
[02:00:53] $100,000." And you're like, "Oh, I don't have that." But micro influencers are
[02:00:55] have that." But micro influencers are oftentimes willing to do deals just for
[02:00:57] oftentimes willing to do deals just for product. You can set them up with an
[02:00:59] product. You can set them up with an affiliate code to make a percentage of
[02:01:00] affiliate code to make a percentage of the sales they bring in and a free
[02:01:02] the sales they bring in and a free product and they're super happy. For
[02:01:03] product and they're super happy. For instance, when I was doing performance
[02:01:05] instance, when I was doing performance scum, uh the NIL had just come into
[02:01:07] scum, uh the NIL had just come into effect. And if you don't know what the
[02:01:08] effect. And if you don't know what the NIL is, it's basically college athletes
[02:01:10] NIL is, it's basically college athletes can now do brand deals. And a lot of
[02:01:12] can now do brand deals. And a lot of these college athletes were just super
[02:01:14] these college athletes were just super eager to do a brand deal and and and
[02:01:16] eager to do a brand deal and and and make a post and say, "Oh, I'm
[02:01:17] make a post and say, "Oh, I'm sponsored." Right? And so I did so many
[02:01:20] sponsored." Right? And so I did so many for product deals where I'd send product
[02:01:21] for product deals where I'd send product to these influencers. They'd make a post
[02:01:23] to these influencers. They'd make a post and we do have a great deal right there.
[02:01:25] and we do have a great deal right there. I was able to work with 100 plus
[02:01:27] I was able to work with 100 plus influencers because of this. So this is
[02:01:30] influencers because of this. So this is the key using micro influencers, tapping
[02:01:32] the key using micro influencers, tapping in, getting out there, finding people in
[02:01:34] in, getting out there, finding people in your space. What we do when I get
[02:01:36] your space. What we do when I get started is I make a big spreadsheet of
[02:01:38] started is I make a big spreadsheet of just everybody in my space I'd love to
[02:01:40] just everybody in my space I'd love to work with. Tik Tok shop has built-in
[02:01:42] work with. Tik Tok shop has built-in mechanisms to connect with influencers
[02:01:44] mechanisms to connect with influencers in the space. We did a video for
[02:01:46] in the space. We did a video for Lavanta. They have similar things to
[02:01:47] Lavanta. They have similar things to connect with influencers, but part of it
[02:01:49] connect with influencers, but part of it is just finding people on these
[02:01:50] is just finding people on these platforms, searching Tik Tok, finding
[02:01:52] platforms, searching Tik Tok, finding people, and then reaching out. That's
[02:01:54] people, and then reaching out. That's the key right here. Then finally, as we
[02:01:56] the key right here. Then finally, as we talked about, is a product launch group.
[02:01:59] talked about, is a product launch group. Now, product launch groups are great.
[02:02:01] Now, product launch groups are great. Product launch groups are what we do for
[02:02:04] Product launch groups are what we do for most of our product launches. And here
[02:02:06] most of our product launches. And here we can see our one for Carnivore
[02:02:07] we can see our one for Carnivore Electrolytes. What is a product launch
[02:02:09] Electrolytes. What is a product launch group? Now, a product launch group, what
[02:02:10] group? Now, a product launch group, what it does is it allows you to get people
[02:02:14] it does is it allows you to get people behind the scenes in the process early.
[02:02:16] behind the scenes in the process early. So, you want to launch your product,
[02:02:17] So, you want to launch your product, right? Let's just say you aren't ready
[02:02:19] right? Let's just say you aren't ready to manufacture yet or you want to get
[02:02:21] to manufacture yet or you want to get people building while you're
[02:02:22] people building while you're manufacturing. While you're posting on
[02:02:24] manufacturing. While you're posting on social media, you feed people into your
[02:02:26] social media, you feed people into your product launch group. And that's where
[02:02:27] product launch group. And that's where you can share the behind the scenes of
[02:02:29] you can share the behind the scenes of your product. And number one, you can
[02:02:31] your product. And number one, you can get feedback on your product. You can
[02:02:33] get feedback on your product. You can say, "Hey, what color is better? What
[02:02:34] say, "Hey, what color is better? What logo is better?" You can send your
[02:02:36] logo is better?" You can send your product to people. You can get feedback
[02:02:37] product to people. You can get feedback on that. Number two is people love being
[02:02:41] on that. Number two is people love being a part of something. So, if you're in a
[02:02:43] a part of something. So, if you're in a product launch group from the beginning
[02:02:44] product launch group from the beginning and you get to help out in the creation
[02:02:46] and you get to help out in the creation of the product, when you finally go to
[02:02:48] of the product, when you finally go to sell the product, you're going to be so
[02:02:50] sell the product, you're going to be so excited to order the product. you're
[02:02:53] excited to order the product. you're like, "Hey, I was a part of making this.
[02:02:54] like, "Hey, I was a part of making this. I'm so happy." And so I did this my
[02:02:56] I'm so happy." And so I did this my product, Performance Gum, and we
[02:02:58] product, Performance Gum, and we channeled it and we raised about $3,000
[02:03:00] channeled it and we raised about $3,000 on a Kickstarter from what we did and
[02:03:02] on a Kickstarter from what we did and had a great launch on Amazon. Uh Travis
[02:03:04] had a great launch on Amazon. Uh Travis did this and raised over $15,000 for
[02:03:08] did this and raised over $15,000 for Performance Nut Butter. And it's about
[02:03:09] Performance Nut Butter. And it's about getting people involved early, bringing
[02:03:12] getting people involved early, bringing them behind the scenes of the process,
[02:03:14] them behind the scenes of the process, and that built a lot of repercity that
[02:03:17] and that built a lot of repercity that they will then give to you when you
[02:03:19] they will then give to you when you finally launch on Amazon. So, we start a
[02:03:21] finally launch on Amazon. So, we start a different Tik Tok for each of the
[02:03:23] different Tik Tok for each of the products we launched. So, I showed you
[02:03:25] products we launched. So, I showed you could check out the carnivore
[02:03:26] could check out the carnivore electrolytes. I believe it's carnivore
[02:03:27] electrolytes. I believe it's carnivore electrolytes. You can check out um
[02:03:29] electrolytes. You can check out um cocktail cards. Just cocktail cards. But
[02:03:32] cocktail cards. Just cocktail cards. But just follow as many people in the space
[02:03:33] just follow as many people in the space and they're going to be a lot of great
[02:03:34] and they're going to be a lot of great inspiration. All right, guys. Well, I
[02:03:36] inspiration. All right, guys. Well, I hope you enjoyed the social media. I'm
[02:03:38] hope you enjoyed the social media. I'm going to turn it over to Cam now.
[02:03:39] going to turn it over to Cam now. >> There are five steps that we're going to
[02:03:41] >> There are five steps that we're going to talk about to legally set up your Amazon
[02:03:43] talk about to legally set up your Amazon business. So, we're going to first set
[02:03:45] business. So, we're going to first set up the business entity, the structure of
[02:03:48] up the business entity, the structure of the business. Then you want to get your
[02:03:50] the business. Then you want to get your EIN, which we'll talk about in a second.
[02:03:53] EIN, which we'll talk about in a second. Get your seller permit depending on
[02:03:55] Get your seller permit depending on where you're located. And the next thing
[02:03:57] where you're located. And the next thing will be set up your business bank
[02:03:59] will be set up your business bank account, and then get a business credit
[02:04:02] account, and then get a business credit card. So, let's dive into it. So, the
[02:04:05] card. So, let's dive into it. So, the first one is starting your business
[02:04:07] first one is starting your business structure, your business entity. And
[02:04:09] structure, your business entity. And there is different ways to set that up.
[02:04:11] there is different ways to set that up. So, the first one that I'm going to talk
[02:04:13] So, the first one that I'm going to talk about is setting up your business as an
[02:04:15] about is setting up your business as an LLC. I get questioned all the time about
[02:04:18] LLC. I get questioned all the time about should I wait till I find the product to
[02:04:20] should I wait till I find the product to name my LLC? Should I wait before I name
[02:04:24] name my LLC? Should I wait before I name my LLC and create a structure so I have
[02:04:27] my LLC and create a structure so I have all the names in sync with each other,
[02:04:30] all the names in sync with each other, with my trademark, with my Amazon store,
[02:04:32] with my trademark, with my Amazon store, with all of that. What I would suggest
[02:04:34] with all of that. What I would suggest is you want to create an LLC that's
[02:04:37] is you want to create an LLC that's personal to you, has nothing to do with
[02:04:39] personal to you, has nothing to do with the product that you're looking for. So
[02:04:41] the product that you're looking for. So create an LLC like for example CAM
[02:04:43] create an LLC like for example CAM Enterprises LLC and what would that do
[02:04:47] Enterprises LLC and what would that do is that it creates an umbrella. Okay,
[02:04:49] is that it creates an umbrella. Okay, that's going to separate your personal
[02:04:51] that's going to separate your personal assets from your business assets. So now
[02:04:54] assets from your business assets. So now your CAM enterprises is going to be what
[02:04:57] your CAM enterprises is going to be what you do to create your business under. So
[02:05:01] you do to create your business under. So if you're creating an Amazon product, it
[02:05:03] if you're creating an Amazon product, it can fall under that. If you're creating
[02:05:05] can fall under that. If you're creating a a service type business, it can fall
[02:05:07] a a service type business, it can fall under that. If you're trying to create
[02:05:09] under that. If you're trying to create anything else, if you're trying to
[02:05:10] anything else, if you're trying to create multiple brands that you want to
[02:05:12] create multiple brands that you want to sell on Amazon, it could fall under that
[02:05:16] sell on Amazon, it could fall under that LLC. You don't want to go and limit your
[02:05:19] LLC. You don't want to go and limit your LLC to one service or one industry to
[02:05:23] LLC to one service or one industry to one thing because throughout your life,
[02:05:25] one thing because throughout your life, especially if you're taking this
[02:05:26] especially if you're taking this entrepreneurial journey, if you're
[02:05:28] entrepreneurial journey, if you're jumping into different business
[02:05:31] jumping into different business ventures, you know, and maybe for
[02:05:33] ventures, you know, and maybe for example, you want to do like what we do.
[02:05:35] example, you want to do like what we do. what we're doing, we're launching
[02:05:36] what we're doing, we're launching several products. We launched three
[02:05:38] several products. We launched three products this year or last year. We put
[02:05:41] products this year or last year. We put them all under, you know, the same
[02:05:42] them all under, you know, the same business structure because you could do
[02:05:45] business structure because you could do that. So, under that, you can have a DBA
[02:05:49] that. So, under that, you can have a DBA that is aligned with one business. Let's
[02:05:52] that is aligned with one business. Let's say that we could list it to the
[02:05:54] say that we could list it to the products that we have. You could have a
[02:05:55] products that we have. You could have a DBA that's under carnivore electrolytes.
[02:05:58] DBA that's under carnivore electrolytes. You can have another DBA that's for
[02:06:00] You can have another DBA that's for bourberine tea. You can have another DBA
[02:06:03] bourberine tea. You can have another DBA for cocktail cards. Let's say you want
[02:06:05] for cocktail cards. Let's say you want to start, you know, multiple different
[02:06:06] to start, you know, multiple different brands as you're growing. So, you could
[02:06:08] brands as you're growing. So, you could create a DBA, which I'll get into a
[02:06:11] create a DBA, which I'll get into a second. So, there's different types of
[02:06:13] second. So, there's different types of business structures. The first one, and
[02:06:15] business structures. The first one, and the most simple one, is an LLC because
[02:06:17] the most simple one, is an LLC because especially as a person. If you're an
[02:06:19] especially as a person. If you're an individual who wants to start a
[02:06:21] individual who wants to start a business, you want to start with an LLC.
[02:06:24] business, you want to start with an LLC. And you're going to be a sole
[02:06:25] And you're going to be a sole proprietor. And what that means is that
[02:06:27] proprietor. And what that means is that you're an individual who has a business
[02:06:29] you're an individual who has a business entity. And this is a limited li that's
[02:06:32] entity. And this is a limited li that's what an LLC stands for is a limited
[02:06:34] what an LLC stands for is a limited liability company. It offers more legal
[02:06:37] liability company. It offers more legal protection than a DBA. A DBA doesn't
[02:06:40] protection than a DBA. A DBA doesn't offer any legal protection. However, if
[02:06:42] offer any legal protection. However, if you're doing it under your LLC, it will
[02:06:45] you're doing it under your LLC, it will protect you, separate you from your
[02:06:47] protect you, separate you from your personal assets. However, you could do a
[02:06:50] personal assets. However, you could do a DBA without an LLC. And you could do
[02:06:53] DBA without an LLC. And you could do that just to separate your business
[02:06:55] that just to separate your business structure separate from your personal
[02:06:57] structure separate from your personal structure. So you can separate your
[02:06:59] structure. So you can separate your business, bank accounts, credit cards,
[02:07:02] business, bank accounts, credit cards, uh name, all of that. You could do it
[02:07:04] uh name, all of that. You could do it under a DBA. And DBA stands for doing
[02:07:07] under a DBA. And DBA stands for doing business as. And you could do business
[02:07:10] business as. And you could do business as in any name. So I could be just an
[02:07:12] as in any name. So I could be just an individual. I don't have any business
[02:07:14] individual. I don't have any business structure. And I could be doing business
[02:07:17] structure. And I could be doing business as something else. And I can name it
[02:07:19] as something else. And I can name it anything I want. I can open a bank
[02:07:21] anything I want. I can open a bank account in that name. So, I can receive
[02:07:23] account in that name. So, I can receive checks or payments that are in in my
[02:07:27] checks or payments that are in in my business's name. So, an LLC is different
[02:07:30] business's name. So, an LLC is different because it's a legal it's a limited
[02:07:33] because it's a legal it's a limited liability company. It separates your
[02:07:35] liability company. It separates your business assets from your personal
[02:07:37] business assets from your personal assets. Or, god forbid if you ever get
[02:07:40] assets. Or, god forbid if you ever get sued, it separates from your personal
[02:07:43] sued, it separates from your personal assets. A DBA by itself does not.
[02:07:45] assets. A DBA by itself does not. However, if you have a DBA under your
[02:07:47] However, if you have a DBA under your LLC, now you're protected. The cool
[02:07:50] LLC, now you're protected. The cool thing about having an LLC under your
[02:07:52] thing about having an LLC under your name is that you can build so many
[02:07:54] name is that you can build so many different things under it. Now, let's
[02:07:56] different things under it. Now, let's say for example, you have an LLC and I
[02:07:59] say for example, you have an LLC and I have an LLC called CAM Enterprises and I
[02:08:01] have an LLC called CAM Enterprises and I start Carnivore Electrolytes as a DBA
[02:08:04] start Carnivore Electrolytes as a DBA under it. I create a trademark. I start
[02:08:06] under it. I create a trademark. I start selling. Now, Carnivore Electrolyze is
[02:08:08] selling. Now, Carnivore Electrolyze is making me let's say six to seven figures
[02:08:10] making me let's say six to seven figures a year and I want to separate it from
[02:08:13] a year and I want to separate it from this LLC. I want to I want it to have
[02:08:15] this LLC. I want to I want it to have its own LLC. I could do that at that
[02:08:17] its own LLC. I could do that at that point. Now I have it's making a lot of
[02:08:20] point. Now I have it's making a lot of money. It makes sense to separate
[02:08:21] money. It makes sense to separate carnivore electrolytes. Now I can get a
[02:08:24] carnivore electrolytes. Now I can get a lawyer. I can uh have someone an
[02:08:26] lawyer. I can uh have someone an accountant profession someone
[02:08:27] accountant profession someone professional who can come and help me
[02:08:30] professional who can come and help me create a separate LLC just for carnivore
[02:08:32] create a separate LLC just for carnivore electrolyte. Having one LLC also allows
[02:08:35] electrolyte. Having one LLC also allows you to build your business credit. Let's
[02:08:37] you to build your business credit. Let's say for example the next thing that you
[02:08:39] say for example the next thing that you do when you set up an LLC is setting up
[02:08:41] do when you set up an LLC is setting up an EIN number. An EIN number is an
[02:08:44] an EIN number. An EIN number is an employer identification number and that
[02:08:47] employer identification number and that is like having a social security number
[02:08:50] is like having a social security number for your business. When you have a good
[02:08:52] for your business. When you have a good credit for your business, it allows you
[02:08:55] credit for your business, it allows you to apply for credit cards that have
[02:08:57] to apply for credit cards that have large sums of balance on it. You have
[02:09:00] large sums of balance on it. You have large credit that allows you, you know,
[02:09:02] large credit that allows you, you know, to purchase large orders to to, you
[02:09:06] to purchase large orders to to, you know, purchase services and whatnot. It
[02:09:08] know, purchase services and whatnot. It just gives you more cash flow for your
[02:09:10] just gives you more cash flow for your business. And the benefit of that is
[02:09:13] business. And the benefit of that is that it allows you to pay upfront for
[02:09:15] that it allows you to pay upfront for certain things, especially when you're
[02:09:16] certain things, especially when you're selling on Amazon. Amazon pays you twice
[02:09:19] selling on Amazon. Amazon pays you twice a month. They pay you in the beginning
[02:09:21] a month. They pay you in the beginning of the month and they pay you towards
[02:09:23] of the month and they pay you towards the end of the month. And the way they
[02:09:25] the end of the month. And the way they do that is a so they're saving so much
[02:09:28] do that is a so they're saving so much money in in the Amazon account and then
[02:09:30] money in in the Amazon account and then they transfer that money. So sometimes
[02:09:32] they transfer that money. So sometimes you want to make purchases, you want to
[02:09:34] you want to make purchases, you want to have cash flow between those areas where
[02:09:37] have cash flow between those areas where you don't have access to the money that
[02:09:38] you don't have access to the money that you're receiving. So this is where
[02:09:40] you're receiving. So this is where having credit card, business credit
[02:09:42] having credit card, business credit cards comes in very handy. And having
[02:09:45] cards comes in very handy. And having business credit allows you to have more
[02:09:47] business credit allows you to have more cash flow. As your business grows, as
[02:09:49] cash flow. As your business grows, as you have more expenses, you want to
[02:09:51] you have more expenses, you want to purchase a larger production uh number,
[02:09:53] purchase a larger production uh number, you want to order more units, uh having
[02:09:56] you want to order more units, uh having business credit allows you. Now, when
[02:09:57] business credit allows you. Now, when you have an LLC and you're creating
[02:09:59] you have an LLC and you're creating different DBAs under it, you can tap
[02:10:02] different DBAs under it, you can tap into that business credit because you're
[02:10:04] into that business credit because you're growing it over time. So when you start
[02:10:07] growing it over time. So when you start creating a different DBAs like we jump
[02:10:09] creating a different DBAs like we jump into Bourberine Tea from Carnivore
[02:10:12] into Bourberine Tea from Carnivore Electrolytes now we put it under a DBA
[02:10:15] Electrolytes now we put it under a DBA under the same LLC CAMS Enterprises. I
[02:10:18] under the same LLC CAMS Enterprises. I can tap into Cam's Enterprises EIN
[02:10:20] can tap into Cam's Enterprises EIN credit you know credit score and get you
[02:10:24] credit you know credit score and get you know sums of money for credit to fund
[02:10:26] know sums of money for credit to fund this new idea which once it grows I can
[02:10:29] this new idea which once it grows I can then separate it. I wouldn't have an
[02:10:31] then separate it. I wouldn't have an issue separating it because it's going
[02:10:33] issue separating it because it's going to grow very quickly as you know as it's
[02:10:36] to grow very quickly as you know as it's doing good business as it's turning over
[02:10:39] doing good business as it's turning over a lot of sales and whatnot. So, the
[02:10:41] a lot of sales and whatnot. So, the first thing that I wanted to mention is
[02:10:43] first thing that I wanted to mention is an LLC can the fee for an LLC can range
[02:10:47] an LLC can the fee for an LLC can range from around $150 to $800 depending on
[02:10:50] from around $150 to $800 depending on what state you're in, what that state,
[02:10:52] what state you're in, what that state, you know, charges for an LLC or if
[02:10:55] you know, charges for an LLC or if you're paying for a service for someone
[02:10:57] you're paying for a service for someone a professional service to issue you an
[02:10:59] a professional service to issue you an LLC. You know, it could cost a bit of
[02:11:01] LLC. You know, it could cost a bit of money. Like here in the state of
[02:11:03] money. Like here in the state of California, we have to pay $800 a year
[02:11:06] California, we have to pay $800 a year just to do our taxes if you own an LLC.
[02:11:08] just to do our taxes if you own an LLC. The next thing is the DBA which I was
[02:11:11] The next thing is the DBA which I was talking about which is doing business
[02:11:13] talking about which is doing business as. Now a DBA doesn't cost a lot of
[02:11:15] as. Now a DBA doesn't cost a lot of money. It costs less than $100 to set
[02:11:17] money. It costs less than $100 to set up. It's very easy. Uh doesn't provide
[02:11:20] up. It's very easy. Uh doesn't provide any legal protection like I was saying.
[02:11:23] any legal protection like I was saying. But if you're doing it under an LLC, you
[02:11:25] But if you're doing it under an LLC, you are still protected because you are
[02:11:28] are still protected because you are covered by the limited liability
[02:11:29] covered by the limited liability company. However, you could do a DBA if
[02:11:32] company. However, you could do a DBA if you don't want to spend money and get an
[02:11:34] you don't want to spend money and get an LLC. You could do a DBA under your name
[02:11:37] LLC. You could do a DBA under your name as a personal DBA which allows you to do
[02:11:40] as a personal DBA which allows you to do business in a different name to receive
[02:11:42] business in a different name to receive checks and money and open a bank account
[02:11:44] checks and money and open a bank account in a different name. And it's a lot
[02:11:46] in a different name. And it's a lot cheaper than doing an LLC because an LLC
[02:11:48] cheaper than doing an LLC because an LLC comes with some cost. Now, this could be
[02:11:50] comes with some cost. Now, this could be a good route if you don't want to spend
[02:11:52] a good route if you don't want to spend too much money upfront on an LLC and
[02:11:55] too much money upfront on an LLC and getting it set up and and whatnot. You
[02:11:58] getting it set up and and whatnot. You could get a DBA and as soon as your
[02:12:00] could get a DBA and as soon as your business is turning a bit of money, you
[02:12:01] business is turning a bit of money, you could use some of that money to start an
[02:12:03] could use some of that money to start an LLC. However, it does not protect any
[02:12:06] LLC. However, it does not protect any legal protection. So, that's really
[02:12:08] legal protection. So, that's really important to know. Uh, if someone sues
[02:12:10] important to know. Uh, if someone sues your business, they can go after your
[02:12:11] your business, they can go after your personal assets, unfortunately, and we
[02:12:14] personal assets, unfortunately, and we don't want that to happen. An escorp is
[02:12:16] don't want that to happen. An escorp is different. So, now business structures
[02:12:18] different. So, now business structures can get a bit more complex if you have
[02:12:19] can get a bit more complex if you have partners if you want to be taxed
[02:12:21] partners if you want to be taxed differently. An escorp is basically an
[02:12:24] differently. An escorp is basically an LLC that's charged or it's taxed as an
[02:12:27] LLC that's charged or it's taxed as an escorp. If you're an individual, start
[02:12:29] escorp. If you're an individual, start with an LLC and once your business
[02:12:32] with an LLC and once your business grows, you can talk to a tax expert, a
[02:12:34] grows, you can talk to a tax expert, a tax advisor who can advise you on how to
[02:12:37] tax advisor who can advise you on how to get taxed as a business entity. And
[02:12:39] get taxed as a business entity. And there are different business structures
[02:12:41] there are different business structures on on how to get taxed. So, there's an S
[02:12:45] on on how to get taxed. So, there's an S corp, there's a CC Corp, and there's,
[02:12:47] corp, there's a CC Corp, and there's, you know, partnerships that get involved
[02:12:49] you know, partnerships that get involved in different business structures. So, I
[02:12:52] in different business structures. So, I wouldn't go deep and think about that.
[02:12:54] wouldn't go deep and think about that. If you're an individual, you can start
[02:12:56] If you're an individual, you can start an LLC and get taxed as a sole
[02:12:58] an LLC and get taxed as a sole proprietor as an individual. Uh this is
[02:13:00] proprietor as an individual. Uh this is the easiest way to start your business
[02:13:03] the easiest way to start your business uh structure. Uh because an escorp does
[02:13:06] uh structure. Uh because an escorp does cost a bit more money and there is more
[02:13:09] cost a bit more money and there is more work that needs to be done in order to
[02:13:11] work that needs to be done in order to tax those you know business structures
[02:13:13] tax those you know business structures properly. So I wouldn't get more
[02:13:15] properly. So I wouldn't get more complex. I know some people do advice,
[02:13:17] complex. I know some people do advice, oh get uh start a business structure and
[02:13:20] oh get uh start a business structure and make sure that it turns into an escorp.
[02:13:21] make sure that it turns into an escorp. Now, it is important when once you start
[02:13:23] Now, it is important when once you start making more money, you do want to change
[02:13:25] making more money, you do want to change the way you're taxed, the way your
[02:13:27] the way you're taxed, the way your business is taxed for many reasons. So,
[02:13:29] business is taxed for many reasons. So, we spoke about the EIN briefly. The EIN
[02:13:31] we spoke about the EIN briefly. The EIN is the employer identification number.
[02:13:33] is the employer identification number. And this is like your social security
[02:13:35] And this is like your social security number, but it's for your business. It's
[02:13:38] number, but it's for your business. It's like building credit for your business.
[02:13:40] like building credit for your business. When you get an EIN, you open up, you
[02:13:42] When you get an EIN, you open up, you need it to open a bank account for your
[02:13:45] need it to open a bank account for your business. So, when you're opening a bank
[02:13:47] business. So, when you're opening a bank account under your business's name,
[02:13:48] account under your business's name, which you can do using your LLC or you
[02:13:51] which you can do using your LLC or you could do it do using your DBA. When you
[02:13:54] could do it do using your DBA. When you do that, the bank account is going to
[02:13:55] do that, the bank account is going to ask you for an EIN number. And the way
[02:13:57] ask you for an EIN number. And the way to do that, it's very simple. It's free
[02:14:00] to do that, it's very simple. It's free and you can get it straight on the
[02:14:01] and you can get it straight on the IRS.gov website. There are services that
[02:14:05] IRS.gov website. There are services that can do that for you as well. There's so
[02:14:07] can do that for you as well. There's so many tutorials on YouTube that can show
[02:14:09] many tutorials on YouTube that can show you how to do it step by step. And it's
[02:14:12] you how to do it step by step. And it's there's even instructions on the IRS
[02:14:14] there's even instructions on the IRS website. If you go to IRS.gov and follow
[02:14:17] website. If you go to IRS.gov and follow the step-by-step instructions that's
[02:14:19] the step-by-step instructions that's provided there. It's really easy, but
[02:14:21] provided there. It's really easy, but it's very important because you want to
[02:14:24] it's very important because you want to start building that credit because the
[02:14:27] start building that credit because the banks, in order for them to give you
[02:14:29] banks, in order for them to give you credit cards with large sums of credit,
[02:14:31] credit cards with large sums of credit, they need to know what's your credit
[02:14:33] they need to know what's your credit history. Similar to your individual
[02:14:36] history. Similar to your individual having individual credit cards, your
[02:14:38] having individual credit cards, your business needs to have business credit
[02:14:40] business needs to have business credit cards. And this is the way the banks
[02:14:41] cards. And this is the way the banks know your credit history, if you're
[02:14:44] know your credit history, if you're paying on time, how much cash flow
[02:14:46] paying on time, how much cash flow you're spending, how, you know, how good
[02:14:48] you're spending, how, you know, how good your credit is and whatnot. And this
[02:14:51] your credit is and whatnot. And this takes me back to what I was saying
[02:14:52] takes me back to what I was saying earlier. This is why it's good to have
[02:14:54] earlier. This is why it's good to have one LLC structure where you start
[02:14:56] one LLC structure where you start opening DBAs under it. If you're going
[02:14:58] opening DBAs under it. If you're going into launching several brands, let's say
[02:15:01] into launching several brands, let's say on Amazon, you start with one DBA, but
[02:15:04] on Amazon, you start with one DBA, but you're benefiting from your EIN. Now
[02:15:06] you're benefiting from your EIN. Now your first uh DBA under your LLC is
[02:15:10] your first uh DBA under your LLC is going to start building your business
[02:15:12] going to start building your business credit. When you start uh launching more
[02:15:15] credit. When you start uh launching more uh multiple products or multiple brands,
[02:15:17] uh multiple products or multiple brands, your credit, your EIN credit has grown
[02:15:20] your credit, your EIN credit has grown since your initial launch. So now you're
[02:15:22] since your initial launch. So now you're you have access to more uh credit
[02:15:25] you have access to more uh credit through the banks, more money, more cash
[02:15:27] through the banks, more money, more cash flow, which is going to allow you to
[02:15:29] flow, which is going to allow you to grow your business. is also going to
[02:15:30] grow your business. is also going to allow you to grow that initial business
[02:15:33] allow you to grow that initial business uh brand or that initial product that
[02:15:35] uh brand or that initial product that you're launching on Amazon. The next
[02:15:37] you're launching on Amazon. The next thing is a sellers's permit. So, a
[02:15:39] thing is a sellers's permit. So, a seller's permit is really depends on
[02:15:42] seller's permit is really depends on which state you're living in. And
[02:15:44] which state you're living in. And getting your sellers permit is

[02:15:55] many tutorials online where you can go and, you know, watch a video or just do
[02:15:57] and, you know, watch a video or just do a simple Google search and and you'll
[02:15:59] a simple Google search and and you'll find a ton of information on how to do

[02:16:07] it. It's really easy obtaining a seller's permit. You could do the re
[02:16:09] seller's permit. You could do the re research yourself. It also depends on
[02:16:11] research yourself. It also depends on what state you live in, what city you

[02:16:19] you with the process for a fee. Remember, obtaining a seller's permit is
[02:16:21] Remember, obtaining a seller's permit is something you can handle on your own
[02:16:23] something you can handle on your own without spending any extra cash. Do not

[02:16:35] fee if somebody or a website is telling you that you have to pay a fee to set up
[02:16:36] you that you have to pay a fee to set up your seller's permit. They're trying to
[02:16:39] your seller's permit. They're trying to scam you or they're trying to fool you
[02:16:40] scam you or they're trying to fool you or they're trying to charge you money,
[02:16:42] or they're trying to charge you money, but you don't have to. You can do it.
[02:16:44] but you don't have to. You can do it. It's really easy. Uh, having a seller's
[02:16:46] It's really easy. Uh, having a seller's permit allows you to comply with state
[02:16:49] permit allows you to comply with state sales tax regulations, ability to grant
[02:16:52] sales tax regulations, ability to grant you taxexempt purchases, which is really
[02:16:55] you taxexempt purchases, which is really cool. So, if you're buying products
[02:16:57] cool. So, if you're buying products through a supplier and you show them
[02:16:59] through a supplier and you show them that you're tax exempt, you could buy
[02:17:01] that you're tax exempt, you could buy your product tax-free and when you sell
[02:17:04] your product tax-free and when you sell it, you're going to tax your customers.
[02:17:06] it, you're going to tax your customers. So, you end up saving money. This is
[02:17:08] So, you end up saving money. This is really good if you're, you know, you're
[02:17:09] really good if you're, you know, you're placing your first initial order that
[02:17:11] placing your first initial order that you don't pay taxes on that because
[02:17:13] you don't pay taxes on that because anyway you have to tax your customers.
[02:17:15] anyway you have to tax your customers. So that's some money that you save
[02:17:17] So that's some money that you save upfront when you have that. A lot of
[02:17:19] upfront when you have that. A lot of people are not aware of this and they
[02:17:21] people are not aware of this and they end up paying for taxes when they place
[02:17:23] end up paying for taxes when they place their order, which is an extra expense
[02:17:25] their order, which is an extra expense that you don't have to spend. This is
[02:17:27] that you don't have to spend. This is something that most new Amazon sellers
[02:17:29] something that most new Amazon sellers do not know. And that is when you go to
[02:17:32] do not know. And that is when you go to Alibaba, when you before you place your
[02:17:34] Alibaba, when you before you place your first order, make sure that you apply
[02:17:37] first order, make sure that you apply for the taxexempt uh certificate or the
[02:17:40] for the taxexempt uh certificate or the taxexempt program on Alibaba because the
[02:17:44] taxexempt program on Alibaba because the way you do it is by having a sellers's
[02:17:47] way you do it is by having a sellers's permit. Once you apply for that, Alibaba
[02:17:49] permit. Once you apply for that, Alibaba does not charge you tax on those orders.
[02:17:52] does not charge you tax on those orders. And you can place, you know, as big of
[02:17:54] And you can place, you know, as big of an order as you want tax-free, which is
[02:17:57] an order as you want tax-free, which is amazing. That's money that you save up
[02:17:58] amazing. That's money that you save up front. Most people don't do that and
[02:18:00] front. Most people don't do that and they end up paying taxes, which is money
[02:18:02] they end up paying taxes, which is money that you didn't have to pay. When you
[02:18:03] that you didn't have to pay. When you sell your products anyway, you're taxing
[02:18:06] sell your products anyway, you're taxing uh your customers. So, it's it's really
[02:18:09] uh your customers. So, it's it's really something that you need to take
[02:18:10] something that you need to take advantage of to avoid that. And here in
[02:18:12] advantage of to avoid that. And here in the US, it's very known. You give it you
[02:18:14] the US, it's very known. You give it you to your suppliers, you know, they see
[02:18:16] to your suppliers, you know, they see your sellers permit, they're going to,
[02:18:18] your sellers permit, they're going to, you know, give you the products
[02:18:19] you know, give you the products tax-free. So, that is something to be
[02:18:21] tax-free. So, that is something to be aware of. Uh the next thing is setting
[02:18:23] aware of. Uh the next thing is setting up your business bank account. Like I
[02:18:26] up your business bank account. Like I said earlier, keep your personal
[02:18:28] said earlier, keep your personal business expenses separate from your uh
[02:18:31] business expenses separate from your uh business expenses, separate from your
[02:18:33] business expenses, separate from your personal. This is great for tracking
[02:18:35] personal. This is great for tracking your business expenses. So when you do
[02:18:37] your business expenses. So when you do your taxes, it's a lot easier to manage.
[02:18:39] your taxes, it's a lot easier to manage. It's a lot easier to handle. You can
[02:18:41] It's a lot easier to handle. You can just give all your transactions to your
[02:18:43] just give all your transactions to your accountant and they can do your taxes
[02:18:46] accountant and they can do your taxes for you at the end of the year. Now,
[02:18:48] for you at the end of the year. Now, when you open a bank account, a business
[02:18:50] when you open a bank account, a business bank account, you do need your EIN and
[02:18:52] bank account, you do need your EIN and you need your DBA or LLC uh documents
[02:18:56] you need your DBA or LLC uh documents that you filed for. Uh once you give
[02:18:58] that you filed for. Uh once you give those to the bank, they will, you know,
[02:19:00] those to the bank, they will, you know, open your business bank account. I
[02:19:02] open your business bank account. I recommend US Bank. Uh it's a free
[02:19:04] recommend US Bank. Uh it's a free business account. They they're very

[02:20:26] sellers run into this mistake is that they get stuck and they can't order more

[02:20:46] great for launching your business. However, once your business is set up
[02:20:48] However, once your business is set up and you want to grow it, having a credit
[02:20:50] and you want to grow it, having a credit card is really, really important because

[02:20:58] of great things is a lot most business credit cards or most credit cards you
[02:21:00] credit cards or most credit cards you can get them for 0% interest rate for
[02:21:03] can get them for 0% interest rate for the first you know 15 to 18 months which
[02:21:05] the first you know 15 to 18 months which is awesome. So basically you can get
[02:21:07] is awesome. So basically you can get things at cash value for the first year
[02:21:10] things at cash value for the first year if you use it wisely. Now definitely use
[02:21:13] if you use it wisely. Now definitely use these things wisely. You don't want to
[02:21:14] these things wisely. You don't want to overspend more than what you have. But
[02:21:17] overspend more than what you have. But it is something that you benefit from
[02:21:19] it is something that you benefit from and it becomes very very important as
[02:21:21] and it becomes very very important as you scale. The next legal aspects that I
[02:21:24] you scale. The next legal aspects that I want to touch is patents and trademarks.
[02:21:27] want to touch is patents and trademarks. A patent is something that will protect
[02:21:30] A patent is something that will protect your product. It can protect your
[02:21:33] your product. It can protect your There's different types of patents that
[02:21:34] There's different types of patents that you can apply for. And they're important
[02:21:37] you can apply for. And they're important to avoid any product fraud. So to avoid
[02:21:40] to avoid any product fraud. So to avoid any people from stealing your product
[02:21:42] any people from stealing your product idea and copying you and potentially
[02:21:45] idea and copying you and potentially selling it. And there's different ways
[02:21:46] selling it. And there's different ways that you can apply for it. There's a
[02:21:48] that you can apply for it. There's a full patent, there's a utility patent,
[02:21:50] full patent, there's a utility patent, and there is a design patent. And
[02:21:52] and there is a design patent. And patents can be very expensive. And what
[02:21:54] patents can be very expensive. And what you can do is that you can start with a
[02:21:56] you can do is that you can start with a provisional patent which costs only $75.
[02:21:59] provisional patent which costs only $75. And it gives you protection for one year
[02:22:02] And it gives you protection for one year from the date of submission. And this
[02:22:04] from the date of submission. And this gives you time before you submit for a
[02:22:06] gives you time before you submit for a full patent because a full patent can
[02:22:08] full patent because a full patent can cost at least $10,000. It takes it could
[02:22:11] cost at least $10,000. It takes it could take few years for a full patent to come
[02:22:13] take few years for a full patent to come in place. But once it does, it comes in
[02:22:16] in place. But once it does, it comes in really handy because it can stop so many
[02:22:18] really handy because it can stop so many competitors from taking advantage and
[02:22:20] competitors from taking advantage and selling the same product that maybe
[02:22:22] selling the same product that maybe you've innovated or invented or came up
[02:22:25] you've innovated or invented or came up with. There's a utility patent that you
[02:22:27] with. There's a utility patent that you can tap into which protects the
[02:22:29] can tap into which protects the functional aspect of your product and
[02:22:31] functional aspect of your product and there's a design patent which protects
[02:22:34] there's a design patent which protects the design of a functional item. And you
[02:22:36] the design of a functional item. And you get the idea. It's it's really in the
[02:22:38] get the idea. It's it's really in the name. I think patents are expensive. If
[02:22:41] name. I think patents are expensive. If your product is highly unique and you
[02:22:43] your product is highly unique and you feel like you need to submit for a
[02:22:45] feel like you need to submit for a patent, then it might be worth it. Other
[02:22:47] patent, then it might be worth it. Other than that, I don't think it's worth it.
[02:22:49] than that, I don't think it's worth it. It's it costs a lot of money. It takes a
[02:22:51] It's it costs a lot of money. It takes a lot of time. Not all businesses are
[02:22:54] lot of time. Not all businesses are going to get attacked and not all
[02:22:56] going to get attacked and not all attacks are going to be, you know, in
[02:22:58] attacks are going to be, you know, in disadvantage to the business. There's so
[02:23:00] disadvantage to the business. There's so much competition wherever we go. People
[02:23:03] much competition wherever we go. People are going to copy each other. This is
[02:23:05] are going to copy each other. This is just the nature of having a business.
[02:23:07] just the nature of having a business. It's not a bad thing. That's why we
[02:23:09] It's not a bad thing. That's why we teach branding. We teach how to do
[02:23:11] teach branding. We teach how to do things the right way. And most
[02:23:12] things the right way. And most importantly, we teach how to have a
[02:23:15] importantly, we teach how to have a powerful business presence on Amazon and
[02:23:18] powerful business presence on Amazon and outside of Amazon. So, if somebody comes
[02:23:21] outside of Amazon. So, if somebody comes to try to compete with you, they won't
[02:23:23] to try to compete with you, they won't stand a chance. Provisional patents cost
[02:23:26] stand a chance. Provisional patents cost $75 and can provide one year of
[02:23:28] $75 and can provide one year of protection, that could be worth it just
[02:23:30] protection, that could be worth it just to kind of set things for one year. It's
[02:23:32] to kind of set things for one year. It's more affordable. It can protect you,
[02:23:34] more affordable. It can protect you, give you a head start, and allow you to,
[02:23:37] give you a head start, and allow you to, you know, to fight if there's any other
[02:23:39] you know, to fight if there's any other competitors before filing for a full
[02:23:41] competitors before filing for a full patent because a full patent can cost
[02:23:43] patent because a full patent can cost you more than $10,000, and it requires
[02:23:46] you more than $10,000, and it requires lawyers involvement and legal
[02:23:47] lawyers involvement and legal assistance. Trademark. Trademark is
[02:23:50] assistance. Trademark. Trademark is really, really important, especially
[02:23:53] really, really important, especially when launching on Amazon. A trademark
[02:23:55] when launching on Amazon. A trademark protects your brand name, your logo, or
[02:23:58] protects your brand name, your logo, or a phrase that's essential for building
[02:24:00] a phrase that's essential for building your brand. It's required to become
[02:24:02] your brand. It's required to become brand registered with Amazon which
[02:24:05] brand registered with Amazon which offers several perks that otherwise you
[02:24:07] offers several perks that otherwise you wouldn't have access to. So, Amazon
[02:24:09] wouldn't have access to. So, Amazon gives you access to so many features
[02:24:12] gives you access to so many features that if you're not brand registered, you
[02:24:14] that if you're not brand registered, you wouldn't otherwise have access to and it
[02:24:17] wouldn't otherwise have access to and it can set you, you know, worlds apart from
[02:24:20] can set you, you know, worlds apart from other competitors because in order to be
[02:24:23] other competitors because in order to be brand registered, first of all, you need
[02:24:25] brand registered, first of all, you need to you need to have a trademark. And the
[02:24:26] to you need to have a trademark. And the cool thing, and a lot of new Amazon
[02:24:28] cool thing, and a lot of new Amazon sellers don't know this, and we share
[02:24:30] sellers don't know this, and we share with our students, is that having a
[02:24:32] with our students, is that having a trademark, you don't have to wait till
[02:24:34] trademark, you don't have to wait till your trademark is approved to be brand
[02:24:36] your trademark is approved to be brand registered with Amazon. Amazon is has
[02:24:39] registered with Amazon. Amazon is has gotten so much better and they're pretty
[02:24:41] gotten so much better and they're pretty cool about it. As soon as you have a
[02:24:43] cool about it. As soon as you have a trademark that's processing, uh you can
[02:24:45] trademark that's processing, uh you can apply for a brand registry, which is
[02:24:47] apply for a brand registry, which is really cool because it allows you to be
[02:24:48] really cool because it allows you to be brand registered so much sooner than
[02:24:51] brand registered so much sooner than before where you had to wait till your
[02:24:53] before where you had to wait till your trademark got approved before you apply
[02:24:56] trademark got approved before you apply for a brand registry. Now, brand
[02:24:57] for a brand registry. Now, brand registry gives you an edge because now
[02:24:59] registry gives you an edge because now you become the brand owner of that, you
[02:25:02] you become the brand owner of that, you know, brand name, your logo, your
[02:25:04] know, brand name, your logo, your design. It also allows you to have a
[02:25:06] design. It also allows you to have a storefront on Amazon. It allows you to
[02:25:09] storefront on Amazon. It allows you to have A+ content. It allows you to do
[02:25:11] have A+ content. It allows you to do brand ads and so much more that
[02:25:14] brand ads and so much more that otherwise, you know, you wouldn't have.
[02:25:16] otherwise, you know, you wouldn't have. And Amazon does promote more brand
[02:25:19] And Amazon does promote more brand registered accounts or listings than
[02:25:22] registered accounts or listings than they do uh if you're not. Uh there's two
[02:25:24] they do uh if you're not. Uh there's two types of trademarks. There's an image
[02:25:26] types of trademarks. There's an image mark and there is a word mark. The image
[02:25:28] mark and there is a word mark. The image mark, they're both in the name. The
[02:25:30] mark, they're both in the name. The image mark is design and logo that
[02:25:33] image mark is design and logo that you're trademarking. the word mark is a
[02:25:36] you're trademarking. the word mark is a specific word or a phrase and a
[02:25:38] specific word or a phrase and a trademark is really affordable. It can
[02:25:40] trademark is really affordable. It can cost you only $275
[02:25:43] cost you only $275 and it gives you that peace of mind and
[02:25:45] and it gives you that peace of mind and um it gives you the advantage of being
[02:25:47] um it gives you the advantage of being brand registered on Amazon which is
[02:25:50] brand registered on Amazon which is really really cool. I I highly recommend
[02:25:52] really really cool. I I highly recommend we highly recommend that if you're
[02:25:53] we highly recommend that if you're launching on Amazon to do to get a
[02:25:56] launching on Amazon to do to get a trademark to kind of protect your brand
[02:25:58] trademark to kind of protect your brand name and logo and to get access to the
[02:26:00] name and logo and to get access to the brand registry. So having said that,
[02:26:02] brand registry. So having said that, trademarks also allows you if other
[02:26:05] trademarks also allows you if other people are to come and try to copy your
[02:26:09] people are to come and try to copy your listing on Amazon. It allows you to
[02:26:12] listing on Amazon. It allows you to stand out as the brand owner of a
[02:26:14] stand out as the brand owner of a specific product. Some people might come
[02:26:17] specific product. Some people might come and try to copy your exact listing,
[02:26:18] and try to copy your exact listing, which I've seen happen before. Now, you
[02:26:20] which I've seen happen before. Now, you have to be careful when you're selling
[02:26:22] have to be careful when you're selling on Amazon. You want to make sure that
[02:26:24] on Amazon. You want to make sure that you don't allow other sellers sell your
[02:26:27] you don't allow other sellers sell your product. You could do that. Other people
[02:26:29] product. You could do that. Other people do that. It's called retail arbitrage
[02:26:30] do that. It's called retail arbitrage where you're selling other products on
[02:26:33] where you're selling other products on Amazon, other people's products. You can
[02:26:35] Amazon, other people's products. You can copy their uh listings, sell the same
[02:26:38] copy their uh listings, sell the same exact product. Being brand registered
[02:26:40] exact product. Being brand registered can allow you, you know, to kind of stop
[02:26:44] can allow you, you know, to kind of stop that from happening. It gives you more
[02:26:47] that from happening. It gives you more regulatory on the Amazon platform.
[02:26:50] regulatory on the Amazon platform. Amazon sees you as an independent brand
[02:26:54] Amazon sees you as an independent brand registered brand owner and they give you
[02:26:57] registered brand owner and they give you more treatments. They give you special
[02:26:59] more treatments. They give you special treatments. They want to help you. Uh
[02:27:01] treatments. They want to help you. Uh they might assign someone in the
[02:27:03] they might assign someone in the customer service to be assigned to your
[02:27:06] customer service to be assigned to your brand or your account or your store to
[02:27:09] brand or your account or your store to help you. Uh this is really important.
[02:27:11] help you. Uh this is really important. Just to recap everything that we talked
[02:27:13] Just to recap everything that we talked about. So there's five things to keep in
[02:27:16] about. So there's five things to keep in mind and I'll go back to the original
[02:27:19] mind and I'll go back to the original slide. So setting up your business
[02:27:21] slide. So setting up your business entity whether it's an LLC or you just
[02:27:23] entity whether it's an LLC or you just want to do a DBA which is really not a
[02:27:25] want to do a DBA which is really not a business entity. is just doing business
[02:27:28] business entity. is just doing business as, but like I said before, you can have
[02:27:30] as, but like I said before, you can have your DBAs under your LLC. Then you want
[02:27:32] your DBAs under your LLC. Then you want to get your EIN number, which is free
[02:27:35] to get your EIN number, which is free and you can do it yourself. There's a
[02:27:36] and you can do it yourself. There's a ton of information that you can get
[02:27:38] ton of information that you can get right on the IRS.gov website. Then you
[02:27:41] right on the IRS.gov website. Then you want to get your sellers permit, which
[02:27:42] want to get your sellers permit, which is going to save you money and it's
[02:27:44] is going to save you money and it's going to allow you to purchase products
[02:27:47] going to allow you to purchase products that are taxfree. Then you want to set
[02:27:49] that are taxfree. Then you want to set up your business bank account and apply
[02:27:51] up your business bank account and apply for those business credit cards which
[02:27:52] for those business credit cards which going to help you grow and scale your
[02:27:54] going to help you grow and scale your business and maybe just help you with
[02:27:57] business and maybe just help you with the initial you know product purchase or
[02:27:59] the initial you know product purchase or few services that you want to uh invest
[02:28:02] few services that you want to uh invest in and you get a lot of points and
[02:28:04] in and you get a lot of points and credit in return for that. And the last
[02:28:06] credit in return for that. And the last thing is a trademark or a patent
[02:28:09] thing is a trademark or a patent depending on your product. This is
[02:28:11] depending on your product. This is highly uh depending on what type of
[02:28:14] highly uh depending on what type of product that you're making. Patents are
[02:28:16] product that you're making. Patents are not for everyone. it's too expensive, it
[02:28:18] not for everyone. it's too expensive, it takes a long time to make, it might not
[02:28:20] takes a long time to make, it might not be worth it. Uh, if your product is
[02:28:22] be worth it. Uh, if your product is highly unique, then maybe trademarks on
[02:28:25] highly unique, then maybe trademarks on the other hand, I they're highly
[02:28:27] the other hand, I they're highly important. We highly recommend it. It's
[02:28:29] important. We highly recommend it. It's the only way to be brand registered on

[02:29:47] here, we are in the Amazon seller central. So, if you wanted to sell on
[02:29:49] central. So, if you wanted to sell on Amazon, all you would have to do is go
[02:29:51] Amazon, all you would have to do is go here. You would go uh to manage all
[02:29:53] here. You would go uh to manage all inventory, and once you're over here,
[02:29:55] inventory, and once you're over here, you would press the add a product. Now,
[02:29:57] you would press the add a product. Now, we'll go over reviewing the seller
[02:29:59] we'll go over reviewing the seller central and how exactly that works in a
[02:30:01] central and how exactly that works in a second. But for now, all you got to keep
[02:30:02] second. But for now, all you got to keep in mind is add a product to create a
[02:30:04] in mind is add a product to create a product. To start us off here, you can
[02:30:06] product. To start us off here, you can start by doing a couple things. Number
[02:30:08] start by doing a couple things. Number one, you could search or number two, you
[02:30:10] one, you could search or number two, you could do the product IDs. These are the
[02:30:12] could do the product IDs. These are the two ways I recommend unless you have a
[02:30:14] two ways I recommend unless you have a spreadsheet, although spreadsheets get a
[02:30:16] spreadsheet, although spreadsheets get a whole lot more complicated. So, I
[02:30:18] whole lot more complicated. So, I imagine you will probably be working if
[02:30:20] imagine you will probably be working if within one of these two things. So, to
[02:30:23] within one of these two things. So, to search for it, you can see if this
[02:30:24] search for it, you can see if this product is already in the search. So,
[02:30:26] product is already in the search. So, for instance, if I searched for
[02:30:28] for instance, if I searched for carnivore electrolytes right here, if we
[02:30:30] carnivore electrolytes right here, if we were looking to sell this product that
[02:30:31] were looking to sell this product that already exists, but that's not what
[02:30:33] already exists, but that's not what we're doing here. We will be selling our
[02:30:35] we're doing here. We will be selling our own product. So, um we'll be going back
[02:30:37] own product. So, um we'll be going back over here and you could enter in
[02:30:39] over here and you could enter in basically a G10 number. Um, basically to
[02:30:41] basically a G10 number. Um, basically to get to your UPC code, which you'll need
[02:30:43] get to your UPC code, which you'll need to sell, you would need to go to a site
[02:30:45] to sell, you would need to go to a site like GS1, and you would need to purchase
[02:30:48] like GS1, and you would need to purchase a barcode. Now, barcodes run you about
[02:30:49] a barcode. Now, barcodes run you about $25. This is a universal product code, a
[02:30:52] $25. This is a universal product code, a UPC code that you will be able to use to
[02:30:55] UPC code that you will be able to use to identify your product. And you see a
[02:30:56] identify your product. And you see a barcode on any product. For instance,
[02:30:59] barcode on any product. For instance, this product right here has a barcode
[02:31:01] this product right here has a barcode right on the back and this anyone can
[02:31:02] right on the back and this anyone can scan it and they can know this is this
[02:31:05] scan it and they can know this is this product and it will help identify it,
[02:31:06] product and it will help identify it, especially when you're working in a
[02:31:07] especially when you're working in a warehouse. So, you'll need one of those
[02:31:09] warehouse. So, you'll need one of those in order to sell on Amazon and you can
[02:31:12] in order to sell on Amazon and you can get one from right there. So, let's go
[02:31:14] get one from right there. So, let's go ahead and search for a product over
[02:31:15] ahead and search for a product over here. Something we don't have and
[02:31:16] here. Something we don't have and something that let's just say we're
[02:31:18] something that let's just say we're listing. So, one of the products we're
[02:31:19] listing. So, one of the products we're going to launch in the next couple weeks
[02:31:20] going to launch in the next couple weeks is carnivore jerky. So, let's go ahead
[02:31:22] is carnivore jerky. So, let's go ahead and search for it. And we're going to
[02:31:23] and search for it. And we're going to say listing not found and go to create
[02:31:25] say listing not found and go to create new listing. Now, there's an AI new
[02:31:28] new listing. Now, there's an AI new thing that Amazon will do that will let
[02:31:29] thing that Amazon will do that will let you generate listing content, but I'm
[02:31:31] you generate listing content, but I'm going to skip that for now and we're
[02:31:33] going to skip that for now and we're going to go to the item name. Now, it's
[02:31:34] going to go to the item name. Now, it's a good idea to be as descriptive as
[02:31:36] a good idea to be as descriptive as possible with the item name. For
[02:31:38] possible with the item name. For instance, this will rank very highly on
[02:31:39] instance, this will rank very highly on search depending on what you put in it.
[02:31:41] search depending on what you put in it. So, we said carnivore jerky, 100%
[02:31:45] So, we said carnivore jerky, 100% carnivore friendly, all natural beef
[02:31:50] carnivore friendly, all natural beef jerky for the carnivore and keto diet.
[02:31:54] jerky for the carnivore and keto diet. We want to make sure and then maybe we
[02:31:56] We want to make sure and then maybe we put a serving size. We say salt and
[02:32:00] put a serving size. We say salt and pepper. So, we say something like that.
[02:32:02] pepper. So, we say something like that. Uh it it will automatically say a
[02:32:04] Uh it it will automatically say a product type. It is jerky. So, we will
[02:32:05] product type. It is jerky. So, we will go ahead and confirm right there. Um,
[02:32:07] go ahead and confirm right there. Um, next we will do our brand name and our
[02:32:09] next we will do our brand name and our brand name is Carnivore Electrolytes. I
[02:32:11] brand name is Carnivore Electrolytes. I do not have it on this account. So, it
[02:32:13] do not have it on this account. So, it will ask us to verify the brand. Now, by
[02:32:16] will ask us to verify the brand. Now, by verifying the brand, all you have to do
[02:32:17] verifying the brand, all you have to do is upload a photo um that has the brand
[02:32:20] is upload a photo um that has the brand name on the product. So, for instance,
[02:32:23] name on the product. So, for instance, this product that I've been using
[02:32:24] this product that I've been using example right here, the brand name is
[02:32:26] example right here, the brand name is Getty over here in the corner. And so,
[02:32:28] Getty over here in the corner. And so, if I were, it will ask me to upload a
[02:32:29] if I were, it will ask me to upload a photo to ensure the brand name is
[02:32:31] photo to ensure the brand name is actually printed on the product and that
[02:32:33] actually printed on the product and that this is legitimate branded product. So
[02:32:35] this is legitimate branded product. So that's what we will do in that case
[02:32:37] that's what we will do in that case right there. Continuing down here, this
[02:32:38] right there. Continuing down here, this is where we'll put the unit the ID. So
[02:32:40] is where we'll put the unit the ID. So right here, it will ask for the AS or
[02:32:42] right here, it will ask for the AS or the UPC. Again, we if we wanted to do
[02:32:44] the UPC. Again, we if we wanted to do this product, we would have to get this
[02:32:45] this product, we would have to get this over from GS1. Um, as we don't have it
[02:32:48] over from GS1. Um, as we don't have it right now, we're just going to go ahead
[02:32:49] right now, we're just going to go ahead and hit this. I don't have a product ID,
[02:32:51] and hit this. I don't have a product ID, but I will recommend that you get a
[02:32:53] but I will recommend that you get a product ID from GS1, and I do not
[02:32:55] product ID from GS1, and I do not recommend that you do that. So I'm going
[02:32:56] recommend that you do that. So I'm going to go ahead and press next. And as you
[02:32:58] to go ahead and press next. And as you can see here, it will ask me to apply to
[02:33:00] can see here, it will ask me to apply to sell under this. So it approved the UPC
[02:33:03] sell under this. So it approved the UPC bypassing for us. That just means if
[02:33:04] bypassing for us. That just means if we're listing this product on Amazon, we
[02:33:06] we're listing this product on Amazon, we would have to put the FNN skew number on
[02:33:08] would have to put the FNN skew number on it instead of the UPC code. Now, Amazon
[02:33:11] it instead of the UPC code. Now, Amazon has their own barcoding system called FN
[02:33:13] has their own barcoding system called FN skew. And the FN skew is just like a
[02:33:15] skew. And the FN skew is just like a barcode, but it's Amazon's individual
[02:33:17] barcode, but it's Amazon's individual system that only works for Amazon. Now,
[02:33:19] system that only works for Amazon. Now, it's totally fine to use an FN skew
[02:33:21] it's totally fine to use an FN skew code. But just note that system is only
[02:33:23] code. But just note that system is only going to be working on Amazon. So, you
[02:33:25] going to be working on Amazon. So, you cannot sell that same product somewhere
[02:33:27] cannot sell that same product somewhere else without instead putting a UVC code
[02:33:29] else without instead putting a UVC code over that Amazon barcode. So just as
[02:33:31] over that Amazon barcode. So just as something to keep note right here in
[02:33:33] something to keep note right here in this next page, we'll put our product
[02:33:35] this next page, we'll put our product description. We want to describe our
[02:33:36] description. We want to describe our product as in as many details as
[02:33:38] product as in as many details as possible as this will help it rank on
[02:33:40] possible as this will help it rank on Amazon. So every keyword you use here
[02:33:43] Amazon. So every keyword you use here will help the product rank. And so make
[02:33:46] will help the product rank. And so make sure using tools like Helium 10 will
[02:33:48] sure using tools like Helium 10 will help you really do this to the max to
[02:33:50] help you really do this to the max to use all the keywords and descriptions
[02:33:51] use all the keywords and descriptions that you need to best rank your product.
[02:33:54] that you need to best rank your product. Next thing you'll do, bullet points.
[02:33:56] Next thing you'll do, bullet points. Bullet points are the shorter things
[02:33:57] Bullet points are the shorter things that show up near the top of the page
[02:33:59] that show up near the top of the page that highlight the product. So we might
[02:34:00] that highlight the product. So we might say 100% all natural and then we do a
[02:34:04] say 100% all natural and then we do a little blurb about it. Jerky from all
[02:34:06] little blurb about it. Jerky from all natural cows and then we can go next
[02:34:09] natural cows and then we can go next bullet and we could say pasture raised
[02:34:12] bullet and we could say pasture raised cows raised on grassfed farms and gauge
[02:34:17] cows raised on grassfed farms and gauge free and then we go next bullet and we
[02:34:20] free and then we go next bullet and we could say 100% carnivore friendly. And
[02:34:23] could say 100% carnivore friendly. And we continue on the way down here,
[02:34:25] we continue on the way down here, filling out images and also um some more
[02:34:27] filling out images and also um some more details may pop up as you need them.
[02:34:29] details may pop up as you need them. Keywords once you launch will allow you
[02:34:31] Keywords once you launch will allow you to put keywords on here as well. Now for
[02:34:33] to put keywords on here as well. Now for images, images are one of the most
[02:34:34] images, images are one of the most important things when it comes to your
[02:34:36] important things when it comes to your Amazon listing because people cannot try
[02:34:38] Amazon listing because people cannot try your item before they purchase it. They
[02:34:41] your item before they purchase it. They can only see it. So the perception they
[02:34:43] can only see it. So the perception they get from the images is really important.
[02:34:45] get from the images is really important. So it's really important you invest some
[02:34:47] So it's really important you invest some time into creating great images for your
[02:34:50] time into creating great images for your brand listing. Now, what I would
[02:34:52] brand listing. Now, what I would recommend is FBA Creatives. Now, FBA
[02:34:54] recommend is FBA Creatives. Now, FBA Creatives are what we use for our our
[02:34:57] Creatives are what we use for our our listings. If you're looking to get your
[02:34:58] listings. If you're looking to get your listing images made, FBA Creatives will
[02:35:01] listing images made, FBA Creatives will basically you can send pictures to your
[02:35:02] basically you can send pictures to your product, what it does, and they will
[02:35:04] product, what it does, and they will take it the rest of the way. The graphic
[02:35:05] take it the rest of the way. The graphic designing team is the same team that we
[02:35:08] designing team is the same team that we use to do our products, and we can
[02:35:09] use to do our products, and we can create great listings that look good. If
[02:35:11] create great listings that look good. If we take a look at the carnivore
[02:35:13] we take a look at the carnivore electrolytes listing right here, we can
[02:35:15] electrolytes listing right here, we can see these great images, right? They
[02:35:17] see these great images, right? They really highlight the product. They seem
[02:35:18] really highlight the product. They seem like they're targeted towards the
[02:35:20] like they're targeted towards the carnivore diet with everything about
[02:35:21] carnivore diet with everything about them. And this can be very, very useful.
[02:35:24] them. And this can be very, very useful. But moving on, product identity. We go
[02:35:27] But moving on, product identity. We go back here. We've done this already.
[02:35:28] back here. We've done this already. Let's go to product details. Now, this
[02:35:30] Let's go to product details. Now, this we're going to have to enter in a lot of
[02:35:31] we're going to have to enter in a lot of information. First thing right here,
[02:35:33] information. First thing right here, we're going to have to enter in that is
[02:35:34] we're going to have to enter in that is manufactured from Carnivore
[02:35:36] manufactured from Carnivore Electrolytes, right? Same brand. We
[02:35:38] Electrolytes, right? Same brand. We could say the carnivore company. We
[02:35:39] could say the carnivore company. We could say whatever. You can use your
[02:35:41] could say whatever. You can use your manufacturer or your manufacturers doing
[02:35:42] manufacturer or your manufacturers doing business as name. Number of items.
[02:35:45] business as name. Number of items. There's only one. We're selling a pack
[02:35:46] There's only one. We're selling a pack of one in there. um number of pieces, is
[02:35:49] of one in there. um number of pieces, is it heat sensitive, temperature rating?
[02:35:51] it heat sensitive, temperature rating? Once you hit no, you can say it's good
[02:35:53] Once you hit no, you can say it's good at room temperature. Then we're got we
[02:35:56] at room temperature. Then we're got we can indicate how much the serving
[02:35:57] can indicate how much the serving quantity is and fill in all the
[02:35:58] quantity is and fill in all the information about the product that goes
[02:36:00] information about the product that goes on the nutritional label. Now, some of
[02:36:02] on the nutritional label. Now, some of this isn't required, but I do recommend
[02:36:04] this isn't required, but I do recommend you fill out as much as possible so that
[02:36:06] you fill out as much as possible so that the consumers can get as much
[02:36:07] the consumers can get as much information and make an educated
[02:36:09] information and make an educated decision about your product. Then we go
[02:36:11] decision about your product. Then we go down here in flavor and we would
[02:36:13] down here in flavor and we would indicate this product is um basically
[02:36:16] indicate this product is um basically we' say it's maybe a peppered or an
[02:36:17] we' say it's maybe a peppered or an original flavored and we'd indicate that
[02:36:19] original flavored and we'd indicate that and we put all the ingredients. The unit
[02:36:21] and we put all the ingredients. The unit count, this is how many units are found
[02:36:23] count, this is how many units are found in each one that someone orders each
[02:36:25] in each one that someone orders each purchase. How many units are found in
[02:36:27] purchase. How many units are found in each one? Is it expirable? Um you would
[02:36:30] each one? Is it expirable? Um you would say yes. And usually if it's a product
[02:36:32] say yes. And usually if it's a product like this, we say the expiration is on
[02:36:34] like this, we say the expiration is on the package right there. And we put a
[02:36:36] the package right there. And we put a shelf life of 365 days. However, when
[02:36:38] shelf life of 365 days. However, when you're sending in inventory to Amazon,
[02:36:40] you're sending in inventory to Amazon, you will indicate for each batch that
[02:36:42] you will indicate for each batch that you send in when the expiration date is
[02:36:44] you send in when the expiration date is four. Is it a bar, a chew, a stick, or a
[02:36:46] four. Is it a bar, a chew, a stick, or a strip? We do these in strips. And the
[02:36:48] strip? We do these in strips. And the unit count again is one. Um, but we are
[02:36:51] unit count again is one. Um, but we are doing ounces and we actually do these in
[02:36:52] doing ounces and we actually do these in 3 oz packs. So, we would indicate that
[02:36:54] 3 oz packs. So, we would indicate that as that is the best way to do it. The
[02:36:57] as that is the best way to do it. The package type, we do this in a bag and we
[02:36:59] package type, we do this in a bag and we would indicate any specialty such as
[02:37:00] would indicate any specialty such as grass-fed, um, pasture-raised, anything
[02:37:03] grass-fed, um, pasture-raised, anything like this that would help the net weight
[02:37:04] like this that would help the net weight right down here at the bottom. And we'd
[02:37:05] right down here at the bottom. And we'd finish spelling that out. Next up, we go
[02:37:07] finish spelling that out. Next up, we go over here to the offer. The offer right
[02:37:10] over here to the offer. The offer right here, we create a skew. A skew is your
[02:37:13] here, we create a skew. A skew is your personal identifier for the product.
[02:37:15] personal identifier for the product. Anyways, the skew right here is your own
[02:37:17] Anyways, the skew right here is your own identifier. So, this is just internally,
[02:37:19] identifier. So, this is just internally, but we can say we can just use the code
[02:37:21] but we can say we can just use the code is jerky one and we'll have to keep that
[02:37:23] is jerky one and we'll have to keep that as the identifier. Now, we have two
[02:37:25] as the identifier. Now, we have two options here. I will ship this item
[02:37:27] options here. I will ship this item myself or Amazon will fulfill it for me.
[02:37:29] myself or Amazon will fulfill it for me. This is FBA, fulfilled by Amazon. And
[02:37:32] This is FBA, fulfilled by Amazon. And what we like to do to have them handle
[02:37:33] what we like to do to have them handle everything, we'll go ahead and check
[02:37:35] everything, we'll go ahead and check this box. And now all we'll have to do
[02:37:36] this box. And now all we'll have to do is give our price up here at the top and
[02:37:39] is give our price up here at the top and the offer condition. We'll select it as
[02:37:41] the offer condition. We'll select it as new and we'll put in the dimensions.
[02:37:43] new and we'll put in the dimensions. This is the front facing dimensions for
[02:37:44] This is the front facing dimensions for customers and this is the dimensions
[02:37:46] customers and this is the dimensions that Amazon will use for the fulfillment
[02:37:48] that Amazon will use for the fulfillment to calculate the FBA fees along with the
[02:37:50] to calculate the FBA fees along with the weight down here. Once we fill that out,
[02:37:52] weight down here. Once we fill that out, we'll go over to this page where we'll
[02:37:53] we'll go over to this page where we'll fill in the safety and compliance
[02:37:54] fill in the safety and compliance information. It's product is created in
[02:37:56] information. It's product is created in the United States. It has no dangerous
[02:37:58] the United States. It has no dangerous goods regulations. We'll enter in the
[02:37:59] goods regulations. We'll enter in the weight and often times more items will
[02:38:01] weight and often times more items will pop up here as you fill out the things
[02:38:03] pop up here as you fill out the things on the other sheet such as does this
[02:38:05] on the other sheet such as does this item need batteries. Are there any
[02:38:06] item need batteries. Are there any allergens, right? This is this
[02:38:08] allergens, right? This is this information will continue to fill out as
[02:38:09] information will continue to fill out as you fill this out. Make sure to keep
[02:38:11] you fill this out. Make sure to keep notice they'll come in. Once you filled
[02:38:12] notice they'll come in. Once you filled out all this for information and there's
[02:38:14] out all this for information and there's no errors remaining, all you have to do
[02:38:15] no errors remaining, all you have to do is hit submit and within an hour, Amazon
[02:38:18] is hit submit and within an hour, Amazon should have processed through and will
[02:38:20] should have processed through and will make your listing live on Amazon. So,
[02:38:22] make your listing live on Amazon. So, it's a very simple process. You'll just
[02:38:24] it's a very simple process. You'll just have to follow through and go through
[02:38:26] have to follow through and go through it. You cannot create AI style images.
[02:38:28] it. You cannot create AI style images. They cannot look like illustrations.
[02:38:30] They cannot look like illustrations. Now, what a lot of people do and what
[02:38:32] Now, what a lot of people do and what most people do and what we do at FBA
[02:38:34] most people do and what we do at FBA Creatives is we do 3D mockups, but they
[02:38:36] Creatives is we do 3D mockups, but they have to be very realistic 3D mock-ups
[02:38:38] have to be very realistic 3D mock-ups and appear to be the real photo. They
[02:38:40] and appear to be the real photo. They cannot be AI created as that will not

[02:42:29] with that being said, I'm going to turn it over to Cam real quick.
[02:42:34] it over to Cam real quick. All right. So, we're going to talk about
[02:42:36] All right. So, we're going to talk about shipping to Amazon warehouse and I'm
[02:42:39] shipping to Amazon warehouse and I'm going to do a live example to show you
[02:42:41] going to do a live example to show you how we ship products to Amazon. So, the
[02:42:43] how we ship products to Amazon. So, the first thing that you want to do when you
[02:42:44] first thing that you want to do when you ship a product is that you want to go to
[02:42:46] ship a product is that you want to go to the top left menu and you want to go to
[02:42:48] the top left menu and you want to go to inventory and click on manage all
[02:42:50] inventory and click on manage all inventory. The next thing that we're
[02:42:52] inventory. The next thing that we're going to do and I'm going to show you
[02:42:53] going to do and I'm going to show you how to ship. we're going to ship one of
[02:42:54] how to ship. we're going to ship one of the our carnivore electrolytes is that
[02:42:56] the our carnivore electrolytes is that you're going to hit the options menu on
[02:42:59] you're going to hit the options menu on the right side and you're going to hit
[02:43:01] the right side and you're going to hit send or replenish inventory. The next
[02:43:03] send or replenish inventory. The next thing is that you're going to do is make
[02:43:05] thing is that you're going to do is make sure that your ship from address is
[02:43:08] sure that your ship from address is accurate. You're going to set up your
[02:43:09] accurate. You're going to set up your packaging detail. So there is different
[02:43:13] packaging detail. So there is different ways to do this and you can set up
[02:43:14] ways to do this and you can set up different templates for your shipping
[02:43:16] different templates for your shipping product. So basically every product that
[02:43:18] product. So basically every product that you have listed in Amazon has its own
[02:43:21] you have listed in Amazon has its own FNSKU
[02:43:23] FNSKU uh barcode. And what that means when you
[02:43:25] uh barcode. And what that means when you buy a product from a manufacturer and
[02:43:28] buy a product from a manufacturer and you want to list it on Amazon, you need
[02:43:30] you want to list it on Amazon, you need something called UPC barcode. And that
[02:43:33] something called UPC barcode. And that is the it's the universal product code.
[02:43:35] is the it's the universal product code. Basically, it is the signature or the
[02:43:38] Basically, it is the signature or the barcode that is on the back of every
[02:43:40] barcode that is on the back of every product when you check out. So, when you
[02:43:42] product when you check out. So, when you want to sell online or you want to sell
[02:43:44] want to sell online or you want to sell in retail, your product has to have its
[02:43:46] in retail, your product has to have its own unique UPC code. And when you create
[02:43:49] own unique UPC code. And when you create a listing on Amazon, Amazon is going to
[02:43:50] a listing on Amazon, Amazon is going to ask you for that code. So, when you set
[02:43:52] ask you for that code. So, when you set up your listing, you put in your UPC
[02:43:54] up your listing, you put in your UPC code on there. Now, once the listing is
[02:43:56] code on there. Now, once the listing is created, Amazon gives you your own
[02:43:59] created, Amazon gives you your own unique barcode. That's called the FNSKU
[02:44:02] unique barcode. That's called the FNSKU barcode. So, each listing has its own
[02:44:05] barcode. So, each listing has its own FNSKU barcode. You want to make sure
[02:44:07] FNSKU barcode. You want to make sure that every unit of your product has that
[02:44:10] that every unit of your product has that barcode on it. So when Amazon receives
[02:44:12] barcode on it. So when Amazon receives your shipment, they will scan that
[02:44:14] your shipment, they will scan that barcode and know that this product
[02:44:16] barcode and know that this product belongs to your listing. Now, this goes
[02:44:18] belongs to your listing. Now, this goes on every unit, right? Once we made sure
[02:44:20] on every unit, right? Once we made sure that we have that, we want to create a
[02:44:22] that we have that, we want to create a shipment label for an entire box. So now
[02:44:25] shipment label for an entire box. So now we're putting multiple units of the
[02:44:27] we're putting multiple units of the product. We're putting multiple units of
[02:44:29] product. We're putting multiple units of Carnivore electrolytes, which in average
[02:44:31] Carnivore electrolytes, which in average we put 45 units in one box. So now we're
[02:44:35] we put 45 units in one box. So now we're shipping this box that has 45 units and
[02:44:38] shipping this box that has 45 units and each unit has the FNSKU barcode on it.
[02:44:40] each unit has the FNSKU barcode on it. And the way to get that shipping label
[02:44:42] And the way to get that shipping label is through this. So once we went to send
[02:44:44] is through this. So once we went to send replenish inventory, you come here and
[02:44:46] replenish inventory, you come here and you want to enter the information of
[02:44:48] you want to enter the information of your shipping box. Two things to keep in
[02:44:50] your shipping box. Two things to keep in mind when you're shipping a box to
[02:44:52] mind when you're shipping a box to Amazon. The first thing is that each box
[02:44:54] Amazon. The first thing is that each box has to weigh less than 50 lbs and each
[02:44:57] has to weigh less than 50 lbs and each box has to contain less than 150 units.
[02:45:01] box has to contain less than 150 units. That's just the regulations from Amazon.
[02:45:03] That's just the regulations from Amazon. Once you have that, now you can come
[02:45:05] Once you have that, now you can come here and create the template for your
[02:45:07] here and create the template for your box. Now boxes are different. So you
[02:45:09] box. Now boxes are different. So you know you c you come here, you give it a
[02:45:11] know you c you come here, you give it a name. So every time you come back, if
[02:45:13] name. So every time you come back, if you're using the same boxes or maybe you
[02:45:15] you're using the same boxes or maybe you have different types of boxes, maybe you
[02:45:17] have different types of boxes, maybe you have big boxes, small boxes, medium
[02:45:18] have big boxes, small boxes, medium boxes, maybe you want to have different
[02:45:20] boxes, maybe you want to have different templates, you can create multiple
[02:45:21] templates, you can create multiple templates. So you want to create a name
[02:45:24] templates. So you want to create a name so that you when you come back, you know
[02:45:25] so that you when you come back, you know which box is that. You put in the number
[02:45:27] which box is that. You put in the number of units. You put the dimensions of the
[02:45:29] of units. You put the dimensions of the box. Okay? Okay. And usually it goes by
[02:45:31] box. Okay? Okay. And usually it goes by uh length, width, depth or height. And
[02:45:34] uh length, width, depth or height. And you put in the weight of the box and you
[02:45:37] you put in the weight of the box and you put who puts labels on the products.
[02:45:39] put who puts labels on the products. Ideally, you want to make sure that
[02:45:41] Ideally, you want to make sure that every unit inside the box has its own
[02:45:44] every unit inside the box has its own FNSKU barcode on it. If it doesn't and
[02:45:46] FNSKU barcode on it. If it doesn't and you left it either blank or maybe you
[02:45:48] you left it either blank or maybe you left your UPC codes on there, Amazon is
[02:45:51] left your UPC codes on there, Amazon is going to ask you, do you want to put
[02:45:52] going to ask you, do you want to put your FNSQ barcodes on it or do you want
[02:45:54] your FNSQ barcodes on it or do you want us to do it for you? If you let Amazon
[02:45:56] us to do it for you? If you let Amazon do it, they're going to charge you 55
[02:45:58] do it, they're going to charge you 55 cents per unit for a box of 45 units.
[02:46:01] cents per unit for a box of 45 units. I'm going to be paying 55 time 45, which
[02:46:05] I'm going to be paying 55 time 45, which is going to come about to $20 maybe. Why
[02:46:07] is going to come about to $20 maybe. Why do I want to spend $20 on top of the
[02:46:09] do I want to spend $20 on top of the shipping fee per box, you know, before I
[02:46:11] shipping fee per box, you know, before I start selling my product? That's going
[02:46:12] start selling my product? That's going to add up really quickly. The cheapest
[02:46:14] to add up really quickly. The cheapest way to do it, and this is like a little
[02:46:15] way to do it, and this is like a little tip or a little secret that you could
[02:46:17] tip or a little secret that you could do, instead of printing your UPC
[02:46:19] do, instead of printing your UPC barcodes on your product or having
[02:46:20] barcodes on your product or having nothing, design the FNSKU barcode that
[02:46:24] nothing, design the FNSKU barcode that Amazon gives you. So once you have your
[02:46:25] Amazon gives you. So once you have your packaging designed with an FNSKU
[02:46:27] packaging designed with an FNSKU barcode, you go ahead and you when you
[02:46:29] barcode, you go ahead and you when you manufacture your product, your FNSQ
[02:46:31] manufacture your product, your FNSQ barcode is already on there and it cost
[02:46:33] barcode is already on there and it cost you nothing. Now, on the offset of you
[02:46:35] you nothing. Now, on the offset of you not having a packaging design, maybe
[02:46:37] not having a packaging design, maybe you're putting them in in plastic poly
[02:46:39] you're putting them in in plastic poly bags or or something else. I don't know
[02:46:41] bags or or something else. I don't know what you know, there's so many different
[02:46:42] what you know, there's so many different situations. Your situation could be
[02:46:44] situations. Your situation could be different. Now, you could ask your
[02:46:45] different. Now, you could ask your manufacturer to print out the barcodes,
[02:46:47] manufacturer to print out the barcodes, the FNSQ barcodes, and put them on your
[02:46:49] the FNSQ barcodes, and put them on your packaging. That is still cheaper than
[02:46:51] packaging. That is still cheaper than having Amazon to do it. So, make sure
[02:46:53] having Amazon to do it. So, make sure that you do that before you ship to
[02:46:56] that you do that before you ship to Amazon, before you place your product
[02:46:58] Amazon, before you place your product order with your manufacturer. Make sure
[02:47:00] order with your manufacturer. Make sure that you have your design ready. Set up
[02:47:01] that you have your design ready. Set up your listing. Your listing can be set up
[02:47:03] your listing. Your listing can be set up way ahead of time. You could set up your
[02:47:04] way ahead of time. You could set up your listing 3 months in advance. All you
[02:47:06] listing 3 months in advance. All you need is just an image, and it doesn't
[02:47:08] need is just an image, and it doesn't have to be the same exact image that
[02:47:09] have to be the same exact image that you're going to use when you launch your
[02:47:11] you're going to use when you launch your product. This will save you a lot of
[02:47:13] product. This will save you a lot of money. So, now we have our FNSKU barcode
[02:47:16] money. So, now we have our FNSKU barcode printed on the on the unit. So, we don't
[02:47:18] printed on the on the unit. So, we don't have to have Amazon. So, I select who
[02:47:20] have to have Amazon. So, I select who labels units. We put it by seller.
[02:47:22] labels units. We put it by seller. That's me. So, I've created my template
[02:47:24] That's me. So, I've created my template and you know, you want to save it or
[02:47:26] and you know, you want to save it or whatever. It's already in there. You
[02:47:27] whatever. It's already in there. You know, I'm just going to go ahead and
[02:47:28] know, I'm just going to go ahead and close it. Now, it's Amazon's going to
[02:47:30] close it. Now, it's Amazon's going to ask you, how many boxes do you want to
[02:47:32] ask you, how many boxes do you want to ship to the warehouse? Let's say
[02:47:33] ship to the warehouse? Let's say hypothetically, I'm going to ship 10
[02:47:35] hypothetically, I'm going to ship 10 boxes. So, it automatically estimates 10
[02:47:38] boxes. So, it automatically estimates 10 boxes are 450 units. And then you're
[02:47:40] boxes are 450 units. And then you're going to hit ready to send. And it gives
[02:47:42] going to hit ready to send. And it gives you this little check mark next to it.
[02:47:43] you this little check mark next to it. And that means that Amazon has approved
[02:47:45] And that means that Amazon has approved your template. It has approved the
[02:47:47] your template. It has approved the number of units that you want to ship.
[02:47:48] number of units that you want to ship. It has approved this shipping template.
[02:47:50] It has approved this shipping template. Sometimes Amazon is going to tell you,
[02:47:52] Sometimes Amazon is going to tell you, "No, you're shipping too many or there's
[02:47:53] "No, you're shipping too many or there's something wrong in there." You might
[02:47:55] something wrong in there." You might have to go and check what is exactly
[02:47:57] have to go and check what is exactly happening. Maybe the dimensions of your
[02:47:58] happening. Maybe the dimensions of your box is too big or maybe the quantity and
[02:48:02] box is too big or maybe the quantity and the dimensions and the weight of the box
[02:48:04] the dimensions and the weight of the box don't add up. Now, you put confirm and
[02:48:07] don't add up. Now, you put confirm and continue. Now, a little tip, uh,
[02:48:09] continue. Now, a little tip, uh, speaking of FNSQ barcodes, if you're
[02:48:11] speaking of FNSQ barcodes, if you're doing retail arbitrage, you want to put
[02:48:13] doing retail arbitrage, you want to put your FNSQ label on top of your UPC uh
[02:48:17] your FNSQ label on top of your UPC uh label. So, that's one thing that you
[02:48:19] label. So, that's one thing that you have to do. If you're doing your own
[02:48:21] have to do. If you're doing your own product, you're the brand owner. Or if
[02:48:22] product, you're the brand owner. Or if you're doing private labeling, your
[02:48:24] you're doing private labeling, your FNSKU barcode goes directly on the
[02:48:26] FNSKU barcode goes directly on the packaging. It doesn't have to go on top
[02:48:27] packaging. It doesn't have to go on top of the UPC. It's better if you don't
[02:48:29] of the UPC. It's better if you don't have it with your UPC. You obviously
[02:48:31] have it with your UPC. You obviously want to cover. You want to have one
[02:48:32] want to cover. You want to have one barcode on there. And once you hit
[02:48:34] barcode on there. And once you hit confirm and continue, uh you're going to
[02:48:36] confirm and continue, uh you're going to get here. It's going to ask you when do
[02:48:38] get here. It's going to ask you when do you ship the product. So this is really
[02:48:40] you ship the product. So this is really important. If you're going to ship it
[02:48:41] important. If you're going to ship it this week or today, you can put today's
[02:48:43] this week or today, you can put today's date. If I don't want to ship it today,
[02:48:44] date. If I don't want to ship it today, maybe I want to ship it in it's going to
[02:48:46] maybe I want to ship it in it's going to be ready in a couple of weeks. And then
[02:48:47] be ready in a couple of weeks. And then Amazon is going to ask you one of two
[02:48:49] Amazon is going to ask you one of two questions. This is if you want to send
[02:48:51] questions. This is if you want to send it to fulfillment center or Amazon this
[02:48:54] it to fulfillment center or Amazon this year they started uh doing a what is
[02:48:56] year they started uh doing a what is called AWD which is Amazon warehousing
[02:48:59] called AWD which is Amazon warehousing and distribution. This is if you want to
[02:49:01] and distribution. This is if you want to store your inventory at the Amazon
[02:49:03] store your inventory at the Amazon warehouse and when you once you're ready
[02:49:06] warehouse and when you once you're ready you can request Amazon to ship your
[02:49:08] you can request Amazon to ship your inventory from the Amazon warehousing
[02:49:10] inventory from the Amazon warehousing and distribution to the fulfillment
[02:49:12] and distribution to the fulfillment center. The fulfillment center is where
[02:49:14] center. The fulfillment center is where Amazon picks, packs, and ships your
[02:49:16] Amazon picks, packs, and ships your product to the customers when you get an
[02:49:18] product to the customers when you get an order. If you don't have inventory at
[02:49:20] order. If you don't have inventory at the Amazon fulfillment center, it is not
[02:49:23] the Amazon fulfillment center, it is not considered that you have inventory.
[02:49:25] considered that you have inventory. You're out of stock. If you have stock
[02:49:27] You're out of stock. If you have stock at the AWD, you need to request that it
[02:49:29] at the AWD, you need to request that it ships to the fulfillment center. So, you
[02:49:31] ships to the fulfillment center. So, you want to make sure that you select the
[02:49:32] want to make sure that you select the right distribution center that you're
[02:49:34] right distribution center that you're going to send it to. So, are you going
[02:49:35] going to send it to. So, are you going to send it to the fulfillment center or
[02:49:37] to send it to the fulfillment center or are you going to send it to the Amazon
[02:49:38] are you going to send it to the Amazon warehousing and distribution? If you
[02:49:40] warehousing and distribution? If you have a little bit of extra inventory and
[02:49:42] have a little bit of extra inventory and you want to ship it there, that's fine.
[02:49:44] you want to ship it there, that's fine. That buys you a little bit of time to
[02:49:45] That buys you a little bit of time to kind of understand how it works and it
[02:49:47] kind of understand how it works and it gives you time before you want to ship
[02:49:48] gives you time before you want to ship to a fulfillment center. Now, when
[02:49:50] to a fulfillment center. Now, when you're shipping to a fulfillment center,
[02:49:51] you're shipping to a fulfillment center, like I was saying earlier, you can uh
[02:49:53] like I was saying earlier, you can uh submit how many warehouses you want to
[02:49:56] submit how many warehouses you want to ship to. So, this saying two shipments
[02:49:57] ship to. So, this saying two shipments or one shipment. Two shipments means
[02:50:00] or one shipment. Two shipments means that you're sending to two different
[02:50:01] that you're sending to two different fulfillment centers instead of one. when
[02:50:03] fulfillment centers instead of one. when you select one, it's a bit more
[02:50:04] you select one, it's a bit more expensive because you're going to send
[02:50:06] expensive because you're going to send it to one fulfillment center and then
[02:50:07] it to one fulfillment center and then Amazon is going to distribute it to
[02:50:09] Amazon is going to distribute it to another. Uh, so I do recommend shipping
[02:50:11] another. Uh, so I do recommend shipping it to as many as you can. If you're
[02:50:13] it to as many as you can. If you're shipping from overseas, it does make
[02:50:15] shipping from overseas, it does make sense to ship it to one location and
[02:50:16] sense to ship it to one location and have Amazon redistribute it later
[02:50:19] have Amazon redistribute it later because it's just much easier to contain
[02:50:21] because it's just much easier to contain a shipment that's coming from overseas.
[02:50:23] a shipment that's coming from overseas. Or you can speak to your freight
[02:50:24] Or you can speak to your freight forwarder. There are two different ways
[02:50:26] forwarder. There are two different ways to ship your products from overseas. You
[02:50:28] to ship your products from overseas. You can ship them by sea, which is cheaper.
[02:50:30] can ship them by sea, which is cheaper. uh it costs less but it takes a bit
[02:50:32] uh it costs less but it takes a bit longer. Or you can ship them by air,
[02:50:34] longer. Or you can ship them by air, which is very fast, but it costs a lot
[02:50:36] which is very fast, but it costs a lot more money. When you're handling
[02:50:38] more money. When you're handling shipments from overseas, I do recommend
[02:50:39] shipments from overseas, I do recommend paying a little bit of extra fee for a
[02:50:41] paying a little bit of extra fee for a freight forwarder, a professional
[02:50:42] freight forwarder, a professional logistics company to handle your
[02:50:44] logistics company to handle your shipments. So, make sure you do your
[02:50:45] shipments. So, make sure you do your homework, do your research to see what's
[02:50:48] homework, do your research to see what's the best option for you. Some freight
[02:50:49] the best option for you. Some freight forwarders are going to tell you like,
[02:50:50] forwarders are going to tell you like, we don't want to do that. It's too
[02:50:52] we don't want to do that. It's too complicated. We're just going to ship it
[02:50:53] complicated. We're just going to ship it to one location. It's a lot easier. So,
[02:50:55] to one location. It's a lot easier. So, we're going to do an example as if we're
[02:50:56] we're going to do an example as if we're shipping our products from here, from
[02:50:58] shipping our products from here, from the US. So, what I'm going to do is I'm
[02:51:00] the US. So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to ship it to two different
[02:51:01] going to ship it to two different warehouses. So, I'm going to select two
[02:51:03] warehouses. So, I'm going to select two shipments. Now, the you have two
[02:51:05] shipments. Now, the you have two different options when it comes to
[02:51:06] different options when it comes to shipments. The low truck load or full
[02:51:08] shipments. The low truck load or full truck load means that you're shipping a
[02:51:11] truck load means that you're shipping a pallet of product to the warehouse. And
[02:51:13] pallet of product to the warehouse. And that requires a different shipping truck
[02:51:16] that requires a different shipping truck than a regular uh parcel delivery. A
[02:51:18] than a regular uh parcel delivery. A parcel delivery, you can just hand them
[02:51:20] parcel delivery, you can just hand them boxes, independent boxes. You can take
[02:51:22] boxes, independent boxes. You can take it yourself to the UPS office, hand it
[02:51:24] it yourself to the UPS office, hand it to them, and they will ship your
[02:51:26] to them, and they will ship your product. A a pallet is different because
[02:51:29] product. A a pallet is different because a truck is going to come and they're
[02:51:31] a truck is going to come and they're going to pick up a pallet of product and
[02:51:33] going to pick up a pallet of product and take it to the Amazon warehouse. It
[02:51:34] take it to the Amazon warehouse. It could be a truckload, it could be a full
[02:51:36] could be a truckload, it could be a full truckload, or it could be a small truck
[02:51:37] truckload, or it could be a small truck that comes and takes your pallet. So, be
[02:51:39] that comes and takes your pallet. So, be careful when selecting that option
[02:51:40] careful when selecting that option depending on what you're shipping. For
[02:51:42] depending on what you're shipping. For 10 boxes, it's not a full pallet. So,
[02:51:44] 10 boxes, it's not a full pallet. So, we're going to choose small personal
[02:51:46] we're going to choose small personal delivery. Now, Amazon is going to ask
[02:51:47] delivery. Now, Amazon is going to ask you, do you want to use their UPS
[02:51:50] you, do you want to use their UPS preferred carrier or do you want to use
[02:51:52] preferred carrier or do you want to use your own carrier? you have an option of
[02:51:54] your own carrier? you have an option of using DHL, FedEx, FedEx Ground, UPS,
[02:51:57] using DHL, FedEx, FedEx Ground, UPS, USPS, and and all these options. Now,
[02:51:59] USPS, and and all these options. Now, this is up to you how do you want to
[02:52:01] this is up to you how do you want to ship it. Uh we found it to be to cost
[02:52:03] ship it. Uh we found it to be to cost almost the same. And like I said, we got
[02:52:05] almost the same. And like I said, we got two different locations that we get to
[02:52:07] two different locations that we get to ship to. Uh this is uh Pennsylvania and
[02:52:10] ship to. Uh this is uh Pennsylvania and this one is going to go also to
[02:52:11] this one is going to go also to Pennsylvania, but it's a different
[02:52:12] Pennsylvania, but it's a different warehouse. But that's just going to
[02:52:14] warehouse. But that's just going to allow the distribution to go wider. In
[02:52:16] allow the distribution to go wider. In some cases, you can ship it to multiple
[02:52:17] some cases, you can ship it to multiple states. Sometimes we get options for New
[02:52:19] states. Sometimes we get options for New Jersey, California, somewhere in the
[02:52:21] Jersey, California, somewhere in the south. It all depends on what Amazon
[02:52:24] south. It all depends on what Amazon thinks is right to the quantity that
[02:52:26] thinks is right to the quantity that you're shipping and to where you're
[02:52:28] you're shipping and to where you're located. So, a lot of things play and
[02:52:30] located. So, a lot of things play and depending on where your inventory is
[02:52:31] depending on where your inventory is distributed to. So, if you already have
[02:52:33] distributed to. So, if you already have inventory like we do, they might think
[02:52:35] inventory like we do, they might think it's better to for us to ship it to
[02:52:36] it's better to for us to ship it to Pennsylvania. That's the recommendation
[02:52:38] Pennsylvania. That's the recommendation they've given us. And here comes the
[02:52:40] they've given us. And here comes the estimate. Uh total prep fee is $0. The
[02:52:43] estimate. Uh total prep fee is $0. The total placement fee is $76, which goes
[02:52:45] total placement fee is $76, which goes on top of the total for the shipping fee
[02:52:47] on top of the total for the shipping fee is $242. So, my total is $319
[02:52:51] is $242. So, my total is $319 to ship this to Amazon. Keep in mind if
[02:52:54] to ship this to Amazon. Keep in mind if you are going to cancel the shipment,
[02:52:56] you are going to cancel the shipment, you only have I think 24 or 48 hours
[02:52:59] you only have I think 24 or 48 hours before you get charged this placement
[02:53:01] before you get charged this placement fee. The next thing you do is you accept
[02:53:03] fee. The next thing you do is you accept those charges. So, it gives you the
[02:53:05] those charges. So, it gives you the estimates for each charge over here. And
[02:53:07] estimates for each charge over here. And now the next thing once it's finishes
[02:53:09] now the next thing once it's finishes accepting this, you want to print the
[02:53:11] accepting this, you want to print the labels. So, it takes you to step number
[02:53:13] labels. So, it takes you to step number three, which is print labels. So, now
[02:53:15] three, which is print labels. So, now it's done. It's set up two shipments.
[02:53:17] it's done. It's set up two shipments. Once you have your store set up, this is
[02:53:19] Once you have your store set up, this is how easy it is. You just place an order
[02:53:20] how easy it is. You just place an order with your manufacturer. Once you feel
[02:53:22] with your manufacturer. Once you feel like you're going to run out of
[02:53:23] like you're going to run out of inventory, you're preparing for your
[02:53:25] inventory, you're preparing for your next shipment. You set up your next
[02:53:26] next shipment. You set up your next order. You come here and you just print
[02:53:28] order. You come here and you just print your labels. It's really easy. It takes
[02:53:30] your labels. It's really easy. It takes 2 minutes to do this. Now, this shipment
[02:53:32] 2 minutes to do this. Now, this shipment is ready. You come here and you print
[02:53:34] is ready. You come here and you print your label. And you have two labels. So,
[02:53:36] your label. And you have two labels. So, this is the UPS label and this is the
[02:53:39] this is the UPS label and this is the FBA label. This is what Amazon needs to
[02:53:41] FBA label. This is what Amazon needs to see in order to link that box with your
[02:53:43] see in order to link that box with your listing. And you're going to get one
[02:53:45] listing. And you're going to get one label for every box. So, one shipment
[02:53:48] label for every box. So, one shipment has six and the other one is going to
[02:53:50] has six and the other one is going to have four labels. So, it says six SQUs
[02:53:53] have four labels. So, it says six SQUs here and here it says four. You want to
[02:53:55] here and here it says four. You want to make sure that you have your labels,
[02:53:56] make sure that you have your labels, your shipping labels and the FBA label
[02:53:59] your shipping labels and the FBA label on each box and then you just take it to
[02:54:01] on each box and then you just take it to the UPS office and it's as easy as that.
[02:54:04] the UPS office and it's as easy as that. Things to check once you're done. So,
[02:54:07] Things to check once you're done. So, let's go to view tracking details. So
[02:54:09] let's go to view tracking details. So now, let's say I took the boxes, I went
[02:54:11] now, let's say I took the boxes, I went to the UPS office, I've handed it to
[02:54:13] to the UPS office, I've handed it to them, they give you a tracking number.
[02:54:15] them, they give you a tracking number. One tip that I'm going to give you
[02:54:16] One tip that I'm going to give you that's really, really important, and
[02:54:17] that's really, really important, and this is going to save you money, make
[02:54:19] this is going to save you money, make sure that you record everything. Okay?
[02:54:21] sure that you record everything. Okay? Get the receipts from the UPS office,
[02:54:23] Get the receipts from the UPS office, take pictures of the boxes, weigh them,
[02:54:26] take pictures of the boxes, weigh them, record everything just in case anything
[02:54:28] record everything just in case anything happens to your shipment, Amazon will
[02:54:30] happens to your shipment, Amazon will refund you for those shipments. So, one
[02:54:33] refund you for those shipments. So, one of the things that you want to do is go
[02:54:35] of the things that you want to do is go to shipping queue. So, this is where you
[02:54:37] to shipping queue. So, this is where you track all your shipment. It shows you uh
[02:54:39] track all your shipment. It shows you uh if it's ready to ship. That means it
[02:54:41] if it's ready to ship. That means it hasn't shipped yet. These this is
[02:54:42] hasn't shipped yet. These this is something that's been working on. It
[02:54:44] something that's been working on. It shows you if it's in transit. It shows
[02:54:45] shows you if it's in transit. It shows you if it was checked in. That means it
[02:54:47] you if it was checked in. That means it was received and it checked in. It shows
[02:54:49] was received and it checked in. It shows you here how many units you're shipping.
[02:54:51] you here how many units you're shipping. So our example we put so 180 plus 270.
[02:54:54] So our example we put so 180 plus 270. That gives us 450. And this is the
[02:54:56] That gives us 450. And this is the number of units that I put in there. So
[02:54:57] number of units that I put in there. So I have two separate shipment lines for
[02:54:59] I have two separate shipment lines for the shipment that I just processed. So
[02:55:01] the shipment that I just processed. So this is where you track it. This one it
[02:55:03] this is where you track it. This one it says work on shipment because I didn't
[02:55:04] says work on shipment because I didn't print that label. I didn't click on it.
[02:55:06] print that label. I didn't click on it. So Amazon saw that. So, it's telling me
[02:55:07] So Amazon saw that. So, it's telling me to work on the shipment. And then you go
[02:55:09] to work on the shipment. And then you go and track your shipment. And processing
[02:55:11] and track your shipment. And processing this shipment can take anywhere from 3
[02:55:13] this shipment can take anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks. After that, you start, you
[02:55:16] to 6 weeks. After that, you start, you know, making sure if Amazon hasn't
[02:55:17] know, making sure if Amazon hasn't received it, that's when you follow up
[02:55:19] received it, that's when you follow up with them. Ask them about the shipment,
[02:55:20] with them. Ask them about the shipment, what happened. Always be in touch with
[02:55:22] what happened. Always be in touch with Amazon seller support if anything is
[02:55:24] Amazon seller support if anything is missing. But give it 3 to 6 weeks time
[02:55:27] missing. But give it 3 to 6 weeks time because usually that's how long
[02:55:28] because usually that's how long shipments take. So many delays happen,
[02:55:30] shipments take. So many delays happen, especially if you don't ship your orders
[02:55:31] especially if you don't ship your orders early enough. Even shipments get lost.
[02:55:33] early enough. Even shipments get lost. That's why tracking everything is
[02:55:35] That's why tracking everything is really, really important. So, common
[02:55:37] really, really important. So, common mistakes that people do and you can
[02:55:38] mistakes that people do and you can avoid is using an incorrect ship from
[02:55:41] avoid is using an incorrect ship from address. Uh, make sure that you're using
[02:55:43] address. Uh, make sure that you're using a correct ship from address. I've heard
[02:55:44] a correct ship from address. I've heard this from so many people where they use
[02:55:47] this from so many people where they use anything different from where the the
[02:55:48] anything different from where the the boxes are shipping from. And this could
[02:55:50] boxes are shipping from. And this could cause some issues when the boxes are
[02:55:52] cause some issues when the boxes are received. Uh, not labeling your units
[02:55:55] received. Uh, not labeling your units with the FNSQ barcodes. Like I mentioned
[02:55:57] with the FNSQ barcodes. Like I mentioned earlier, each unit has to have the FNSKU
[02:55:59] earlier, each unit has to have the FNSKU barcode. That's the barcode for your
[02:56:01] barcode. That's the barcode for your listing. One mistake is sending too much
[02:56:04] listing. One mistake is sending too much inventory to Amazon. Do not ship too
[02:56:06] inventory to Amazon. Do not ship too much in the beginning before you
[02:56:08] much in the beginning before you understand what is your inventory
[02:56:10] understand what is your inventory turnover time. And this is very
[02:56:12] turnover time. And this is very important because after 6 months, Amazon
[02:56:14] important because after 6 months, Amazon will start charging you a long-term
[02:56:15] will start charging you a long-term storage fee. And this is a mistake that
[02:56:17] storage fee. And this is a mistake that I had to deal with with my first
[02:56:18] I had to deal with with my first product, which I shipped over a,000
[02:56:20] product, which I shipped over a,000 units to Amazon. But for any reason,
[02:56:22] units to Amazon. But for any reason, your inventory is not turning over.
[02:56:24] your inventory is not turning over. After 6 months, Amazon is going to start
[02:56:26] After 6 months, Amazon is going to start charging you long-term storage fees. So,
[02:56:28] charging you long-term storage fees. So, it's a great way to avoid that by being
[02:56:31] it's a great way to avoid that by being careful and shipping, you know, less
[02:56:33] careful and shipping, you know, less maybe 500 units. I think that's the
[02:56:34] maybe 500 units. I think that's the perfect balance at first, especially
[02:56:36] perfect balance at first, especially when you're doing everything for a
[02:56:38] when you're doing everything for a powerful launch. Another thing is like
[02:56:40] powerful launch. Another thing is like when you ship a pallet to Amazon, you
[02:56:43] when you ship a pallet to Amazon, you want to make sure that you sign a bill
[02:56:44] want to make sure that you sign a bill of lighting before you ship that pallet.
[02:56:47] of lighting before you ship that pallet. Make sure the driver when they pick it
[02:56:48] Make sure the driver when they pick it up, they sign the bill of lighting
[02:56:50] up, they sign the bill of lighting because that's going to be your record.
[02:56:51] because that's going to be your record. The bill of lighting is like a document
[02:56:53] The bill of lighting is like a document that shows what's being shipped and
[02:56:55] that shows what's being shipped and who's picking it up. you can print it
[02:56:56] who's picking it up. you can print it yourself or if you're shipping from your
[02:56:58] yourself or if you're shipping from your manufacturer, you can have your supplier
[02:57:00] manufacturer, you can have your supplier help you with that. So, there's
[02:57:01] help you with that. So, there's different ways to go about it. Not
[02:57:02] different ways to go about it. Not allowing enough time for Amazon to
[02:57:04] allowing enough time for Amazon to receive and check in products. So, allow
[02:57:06] receive and check in products. So, allow 3 to 6 weeks for Amazon to receive your
[02:57:08] 3 to 6 weeks for Amazon to receive your products before you start panicking if
[02:57:10] products before you start panicking if anything. Uh you go to track shipment
[02:57:12] anything. Uh you go to track shipment and it shows you a bunch of statuses. It
[02:57:13] and it shows you a bunch of statuses. It tells you where your shipment is, if
[02:57:15] tells you where your shipment is, if it's in transit, if it's delivered, if
[02:57:17] it's in transit, if it's delivered, if it's checked in. So, it could be
[02:57:18] it's checked in. So, it could be delivered but not checked in. So, it
[02:57:19] delivered but not checked in. So, it takes time for Amazon to check in your
[02:57:22] takes time for Amazon to check in your products and to for it to be available
[02:57:24] products and to for it to be available for sale. So it has to go through these
[02:57:25] for sale. So it has to go through these entire steps before it's it's available
[02:57:28] entire steps before it's it's available for sale. It has to be delivered, has to
[02:57:30] for sale. It has to be delivered, has to be checked in. Then they have to receive
[02:57:31] be checked in. Then they have to receive it into the warehouse and then it's
[02:57:33] it into the warehouse and then it's available for sale. So there's few steps
[02:57:35] available for sale. So there's few steps before you're ready to sell. I hope this
[02:57:37] before you're ready to sell. I hope this was helpful. I'm really excited to pass
[02:57:40] was helpful. I'm really excited to pass uh to Connor. First off, I'm going to
[02:57:42] uh to Connor. First off, I'm going to talk a little bit about brand registry
[02:57:44] talk a little bit about brand registry and getting a trademark. And I'm going
[02:57:46] and getting a trademark. And I'm going to go over a little bit of how to
[02:57:47] to go over a little bit of how to actually set it up on your Amazon
[02:57:49] actually set it up on your Amazon account and get your trademark. So,
[02:57:50] account and get your trademark. So, Amazon brand registry, you can see here,
[02:57:53] Amazon brand registry, you can see here, helps you protect your intellectual
[02:57:54] helps you protect your intellectual property, but you'll need to get that
[02:57:55] property, but you'll need to get that trademark going first. While you're
[02:57:57] trademark going first. While you're still pending as a trademark, you can
[02:57:59] still pending as a trademark, you can get brand registry. And sometimes, this
[02:58:01] get brand registry. And sometimes, this is good news because sometimes your
[02:58:03] is good news because sometimes your trademark can take up to a year to get
[02:58:04] trademark can take up to a year to get processed by the US trademark and patent
[02:58:07] processed by the US trademark and patent office. We want to make sure that we can
[02:58:08] office. We want to make sure that we can get you approved right away. So, you
[02:58:10] get you approved right away. So, you have two options. First option is you go
[02:58:12] have two options. First option is you go and you get a lawyer to do it for you.
[02:58:14] and you get a lawyer to do it for you. Now, the big con about that is it's it's
[02:58:16] Now, the big con about that is it's it's expensive. So, ideally, you don't get a
[02:58:18] expensive. So, ideally, you don't get a lawyer and I would unless you have a lot
[02:58:20] lawyer and I would unless you have a lot of money to spend and I recommend you
[02:58:21] of money to spend and I recommend you file yourself. And I recommend doing it
[02:58:23] file yourself. And I recommend doing it this way because yes, there's a chance
[02:58:24] this way because yes, there's a chance that your trademark gets denied, but at
[02:58:27] that your trademark gets denied, but at the um very worst case and if it gets
[02:58:29] the um very worst case and if it gets denied after a year, you can at that
[02:58:31] denied after a year, you can at that point pay a lawyer to help you refile
[02:58:35] point pay a lawyer to help you refile it. But there's a chance that your
[02:58:36] it. But there's a chance that your trademark will succeed the first time
[02:58:38] trademark will succeed the first time and you won't even need a lawyer. So,
[02:58:41] and you won't even need a lawyer. So, that's something definitely to think
[02:58:43] that's something definitely to think about. Sometimes you won't even need a
[02:58:44] about. Sometimes you won't even need a lawyer. So, we are on the US Patent and
[02:58:46] lawyer. So, we are on the US Patent and Trademark Office website. So, we can go
[02:58:49] Trademark Office website. So, we can go back here, go over to trademarks right
[02:58:51] back here, go over to trademarks right here. Uh, you can see lots of different
[02:58:53] here. Uh, you can see lots of different things and you can say there's two
[02:58:54] things and you can say there's two things we can do right here. We can pull
[02:58:56] things we can do right here. We can pull up this page right here and you can
[02:58:58] up this page right here and you can search the trademark database. Now, this
[02:58:59] search the trademark database. Now, this is very important because you can't file
[02:59:01] is very important because you can't file a trademark that already exists. And we
[02:59:04] a trademark that already exists. And we want to make sure we're filing a
[02:59:06] want to make sure we're filing a trademark for something that exists,
[02:59:08] trademark for something that exists, right? Because otherwise there's a
[02:59:10] right? Because otherwise there's a conflict and we'll get rejected. For
[02:59:12] conflict and we'll get rejected. For instance, let's just say I looked up
[02:59:14] instance, let's just say I looked up Nike here. Nike is a registered
[02:59:16] Nike here. Nike is a registered trademark for all these things right
[02:59:18] trademark for all these things right here. So, if we try to start a watch
[02:59:20] here. So, if we try to start a watch brand called Nike, we can't do it.
[02:59:22] brand called Nike, we can't do it. Entertainment services, can't do that.
[02:59:24] Entertainment services, can't do that. Sports balls, can't do that. Earplugs
[02:59:26] Sports balls, can't do that. Earplugs for swimming, can't do that. They have
[02:59:28] for swimming, can't do that. They have trademarks across the industry. So, I
[02:59:30] trademarks across the industry. So, I would not recommend doing that. Also,
[02:59:31] would not recommend doing that. Also, when it comes to trademarks, there's two
[02:59:33] when it comes to trademarks, there's two different types of trademarks that you
[02:59:34] different types of trademarks that you can file. The first one is a word mark.
[02:59:37] can file. The first one is a word mark. A word mark is written out like this.
[02:59:39] A word mark is written out like this. It's just the letters. This protects any
[02:59:41] It's just the letters. This protects any use of this word, but it's harder to
[02:59:43] use of this word, but it's harder to file. The second type is a logo mark.
[02:59:46] file. The second type is a logo mark. And we can see a logo mark right here.
[02:59:47] And we can see a logo mark right here. This is the logo. It's protecting this
[02:59:49] This is the logo. It's protecting this Nike swoosh in the Nike brand. This it's
[02:59:52] Nike swoosh in the Nike brand. This it's less protective in the sense that it
[02:59:53] less protective in the sense that it doesn't necessarily just protect the
[02:59:55] doesn't necessarily just protect the word. However, it is easier to file,
[02:59:58] word. However, it is easier to file, especially if you're filing it yourself.
[03:00:00] especially if you're filing it yourself. So, for a lot of reasons, I can
[03:00:02] So, for a lot of reasons, I can recommend filing your trademark this
[03:00:04] recommend filing your trademark this way. So, to go back to file, we'd go up
[03:00:06] way. So, to go back to file, we'd go up here to trademarks. Once you do a
[03:00:08] here to trademarks. Once you do a search, you can get a lawyer to kind of
[03:00:09] search, you can get a lawyer to kind of vet you and let you know that you're
[03:00:10] vet you and let you know that you're going in the right direction, but you
[03:00:12] going in the right direction, but you should be able to search it yourself,
[03:00:13] should be able to search it yourself, especially if you're filing a word mark
[03:00:15] especially if you're filing a word mark in something that seems very unique.
[03:00:17] in something that seems very unique. Now, we can go over to filing online. We
[03:00:19] Now, we can go over to filing online. We scroll down here. We're looking for the
[03:00:20] scroll down here. We're looking for the TES
[03:00:22] TES form. I think we can find it right here.
[03:00:25] form. I think we can find it right here. Get index of all TSS right here. We can
[03:00:27] Get index of all TSS right here. We can find the application and we can file
[03:00:28] find the application and we can file online. So, if we were to sign in right
[03:00:32] online. So, if we were to sign in right here, all we'd have to do is then go
[03:00:34] here, all we'd have to do is then go through the steps. It's a $250 filing
[03:00:36] through the steps. It's a $250 filing fee. I believe there's an extra pro
[03:00:38] fee. I believe there's an extra pro version that's an extra $100 um that you
[03:00:40] version that's an extra $100 um that you might need in some cases. And then once
[03:00:43] might need in some cases. And then once you do this, you should be able to take
[03:00:45] you do this, you should be able to take your trademark number and then you'll be
[03:00:47] your trademark number and then you'll be able to go over to Amazon and with that
[03:00:49] able to go over to Amazon and with that number, you can sign up for brand
[03:00:50] number, you can sign up for brand registry. Now, brand registry will let
[03:00:52] registry. Now, brand registry will let you be a non-generic product on Amazon
[03:00:54] you be a non-generic product on Amazon where you have your own brand name. It
[03:00:56] where you have your own brand name. It will let you have a store. It will let
[03:00:58] will let you have a store. It will let you have A+ content. It will let you
[03:01:00] you have A+ content. It will let you protect your brand. If someone tries to
[03:01:02] protect your brand. If someone tries to sell on your listing that's unauthorized
[03:01:04] sell on your listing that's unauthorized or with a counterfeit item, you are able
[03:01:05] or with a counterfeit item, you are able to protect it. Or if someone launches in
[03:01:08] to protect it. Or if someone launches in here with a listing that violates your
[03:01:10] here with a listing that violates your trademark, you're able to enforce it via
[03:01:13] trademark, you're able to enforce it via in here. So, make sure to get your item
[03:01:16] in here. So, make sure to get your item brand registered. I know you got to pay
[03:01:17] brand registered. I know you got to pay 250 bucks, but in my opinion, it's a 250
[03:01:20] 250 bucks, but in my opinion, it's a 250 bucks that's very worth it, especially
[03:01:21] bucks that's very worth it, especially if you expect your to build a a powerful
[03:01:24] if you expect your to build a a powerful brand. So much about the passion product
[03:01:25] brand. So much about the passion product method is building a brand that's there
[03:01:27] method is building a brand that's there to last, right? We aren't just building
[03:01:29] to last, right? We aren't just building some cheap product to make a quick buck.
[03:01:31] some cheap product to make a quick buck. We're trying to build a brand that we
[03:01:33] We're trying to build a brand that we can make big money on, we can expand, we
[03:01:35] can make big money on, we can expand, we can be proud of, and eventually maybe we
[03:01:37] can be proud of, and eventually maybe we can even sell down the down the line
[03:01:39] can even sell down the down the line like Travis did with Performance Not
[03:01:40] like Travis did with Performance Not Butter. That's a brief overview right
[03:01:42] Butter. That's a brief overview right now of brand registry and trademarks.
[03:01:45] now of brand registry and trademarks. Again, it's a pretty simple process.
[03:01:47] Again, it's a pretty simple process. Once you get the form, the questions
[03:01:49] Once you get the form, the questions answer themselves. It's very logical.
[03:01:51] answer themselves. It's very logical. Okay, yes, what's your brand brand name?
[03:01:53] Okay, yes, what's your brand brand name? Show your product and use. And you go
[03:01:55] Show your product and use. And you go through and you answer all the questions
[03:01:56] through and you answer all the questions to the best of your ability. and you
[03:01:58] to the best of your ability. and you submit. There's lots of YouTube videos
[03:02:00] submit. There's lots of YouTube videos you can follow along as you answer the
[03:02:02] you can follow along as you answer the questions to make sure you're doing them
[03:02:03] questions to make sure you're doing them to the best of your ability without a
[03:02:05] to the best of your ability without a lawyer. And then in six months, which it
[03:02:07] lawyer. And then in six months, which it looks like right now with the delays,
[03:02:08] looks like right now with the delays, you'll find out if you were approved or
[03:02:10] you'll find out if you were approved or not. If you are approved,
[03:02:11] not. If you are approved, congratulations. You just saved
[03:02:12] congratulations. You just saved thousands of dollars in lawyer fees. If
[03:02:14] thousands of dollars in lawyer fees. If not, at that point, you can see about
[03:02:16] not, at that point, you can see about getting a lawyer and paying the
[03:02:17] getting a lawyer and paying the thousands of dollars if it's really
[03:02:18] thousands of dollars if it's really worth it to you or changing and filing
[03:02:21] worth it to you or changing and filing for a different trademark. The next
[03:02:23] for a different trademark. The next thing I'd love to touch on real quick is
[03:02:25] thing I'd love to touch on real quick is Amazon PPC. Now, Amazon PPC is so
[03:02:29] Amazon PPC. Now, Amazon PPC is so important right now because Amazon PPC
[03:02:32] important right now because Amazon PPC will let you spend money on ads on
[03:02:34] will let you spend money on ads on Amazon. So, let's just give a little
[03:02:37] Amazon. So, let's just give a little refresh here. Go over to campaign
[03:02:39] refresh here. Go over to campaign manager and this is where you'll view
[03:02:40] manager and this is where you'll view your Amazon ads campaigns. Now, as I
[03:02:43] your Amazon ads campaigns. Now, as I mentioned before, we don't spend that
[03:02:45] mentioned before, we don't spend that much money on Amazon PPC. Now, the
[03:02:49] much money on Amazon PPC. Now, the reason for that is by creating a passion
[03:02:51] reason for that is by creating a passion product, you can rank on PPC
[03:02:54] product, you can rank on PPC organically. So that is what's really
[03:02:56] organically. So that is what's really important. So let me go ahead and put it
[03:02:58] important. So let me go ahead and put it on basically the last 30 days. So we can
[03:03:00] on basically the last 30 days. So we can see again, as you can see, we spent $890
[03:03:03] see again, as you can see, we spent $890 on PPC for a total on our Amazon account
[03:03:06] on PPC for a total on our Amazon account of almost $80,000 on sales. So we're
[03:03:10] of almost $80,000 on sales. So we're spending about 1% of our revenue on PPC.
[03:03:13] spending about 1% of our revenue on PPC. That is what is so powerful about
[03:03:15] That is what is so powerful about creating a passion product, a unique
[03:03:17] creating a passion product, a unique product in a market of its own is we
[03:03:19] product in a market of its own is we don't have to spend that much money in
[03:03:21] don't have to spend that much money in PPC and worry about losing all of our
[03:03:23] PPC and worry about losing all of our profit. Our products sell themselves
[03:03:25] profit. Our products sell themselves because they have no competition. They
[03:03:28] because they have no competition. They are the best on the market and they're
[03:03:29] are the best on the market and they're most the most premium on the market. We
[03:03:32] most the most premium on the market. We run some supportive PPC campaigns, but
[03:03:34] run some supportive PPC campaigns, but really, you know, we don't really have
[03:03:35] really, you know, we don't really have to do this at all. The products will do
[03:03:37] to do this at all. The products will do the work themselves and and really sell
[03:03:39] the work themselves and and really sell themselves. So, definitely something to
[03:03:41] themselves. So, definitely something to keep in mind when it comes to creating
[03:03:43] keep in mind when it comes to creating your product and creating your listing.
[03:03:44] your product and creating your listing. Running a couple PPC campaigns can be
[03:03:46] Running a couple PPC campaigns can be beneficial just to help compete your
[03:03:48] beneficial just to help compete your product a little bit better, stand out,
[03:03:50] product a little bit better, stand out, and reach into new keywords. That's what
[03:03:51] and reach into new keywords. That's what it can be really useful for. So, if we
[03:03:53] it can be really useful for. So, if we want to create a a PPC campaign, all we
[03:03:55] want to create a a PPC campaign, all we have to do is hit create campaign and
[03:03:57] have to do is hit create campaign and then we'll go right here over to
[03:03:59] then we'll go right here over to sponsored products and we'll click in
[03:04:01] sponsored products and we'll click in here and then we create a name for the
[03:04:04] here and then we create a name for the group. Right here, we can create
[03:04:05] group. Right here, we can create something we'll remember. We'll say this
[03:04:06] something we'll remember. We'll say this is just live stream test and then we'd
[03:04:10] is just live stream test and then we'd select what product we wanted along with
[03:04:12] select what product we wanted along with the variations if we want to add in
[03:04:14] the variations if we want to add in variations from our product. But let's
[03:04:16] variations from our product. But let's just say we just want to do this and we
[03:04:18] just say we just want to do this and we want to focus on brand building. Now,
[03:04:19] want to focus on brand building. Now, the easy way to do it is to set an
[03:04:21] the easy way to do it is to set an automatic targeting campaign. In an
[03:04:23] automatic targeting campaign. In an automatic targeting campaign, Amazon
[03:04:25] automatic targeting campaign, Amazon will select what they think are the best
[03:04:27] will select what they think are the best keywords for you automatically, and
[03:04:29] keywords for you automatically, and they'll go out and they'll target them.
[03:04:31] they'll go out and they'll target them. This requires no work from you, and you
[03:04:34] This requires no work from you, and you can sit back and let Amazon go to work.
[03:04:36] can sit back and let Amazon go to work. Now, over time, this campaign will get
[03:04:37] Now, over time, this campaign will get better and better. To start out, it's
[03:04:39] better and better. To start out, it's going to be a little bit inefficient.
[03:04:41] going to be a little bit inefficient. You know, Amazon's still figuring out
[03:04:43] You know, Amazon's still figuring out what your product is, what keywords
[03:04:45] what your product is, what keywords work, and you can expect to lose money
[03:04:46] work, and you can expect to lose money from an automated targeting campaign at
[03:04:48] from an automated targeting campaign at first. But over time, the hope is that
[03:04:51] first. But over time, the hope is that number one, the campaign gets better and
[03:04:53] number one, the campaign gets better and number two, from running the automatic
[03:04:55] number two, from running the automatic campaign, you figure out keywords that
[03:04:57] campaign, you figure out keywords that are working really well that you can
[03:04:59] are working really well that you can further target in with manual campaigns.
[03:05:01] further target in with manual campaigns. So, I always recommend starting out with
[03:05:03] So, I always recommend starting out with an automatic campaign. I also recommend
[03:05:06] an automatic campaign. I also recommend starting out with a default bid. When we
[03:05:08] starting out with a default bid. When we get down here, this is the bid that
[03:05:09] get down here, this is the bid that Amazon suggests over the top that they
[03:05:12] Amazon suggests over the top that they basically average bid. And basically a
[03:05:15] basically average bid. And basically a bid is for each keyword, you have a
[03:05:17] bid is for each keyword, you have a couple placements of sponsored products
[03:05:20] couple placements of sponsored products at the top there. And each product that
[03:05:22] at the top there. And each product that wants to get one of those sponsored
[03:05:23] wants to get one of those sponsored slots has an amount of money that
[03:05:25] slots has an amount of money that they're willing to pay to get on that.
[03:05:27] they're willing to pay to get on that. So if one person wants to pay $1,
[03:05:30] So if one person wants to pay $1, they'll bid a dollar. But if I bid $11,
[03:05:34] they'll bid a dollar. But if I bid $11, I'll win out over that person. But if
[03:05:36] I'll win out over that person. But if another person enters the market and
[03:05:37] another person enters the market and they're willing to pay $12,
[03:05:40] they're willing to pay $12, they'll outwin over me. So this is why
[03:05:43] they'll outwin over me. So this is why your bid matters. as it matters how much
[03:05:44] your bid matters. as it matters how much you'll show up. If you have a higher
[03:05:46] you'll show up. If you have a higher bid, the more likely you'll get those
[03:05:47] bid, the more likely you'll get those placements, but the more money you'll
[03:05:49] placements, but the more money you'll spend. A lower bid, the less likely
[03:05:52] spend. A lower bid, the less likely you'll get those placements, but might
[03:05:54] you'll get those placements, but might result in spending less money. I just
[03:05:56] result in spending less money. I just like leaving the default because the
[03:05:58] like leaving the default because the default is there for a reason. Now,
[03:06:00] default is there for a reason. Now, negative keyword targeting. If there's
[03:06:02] negative keyword targeting. If there's any keywords you know for a fact that
[03:06:04] any keywords you know for a fact that you do not want to target, you can put
[03:06:06] you do not want to target, you can put them in here. It could be for many
[03:06:08] them in here. It could be for many reasons. Perhaps you already have a
[03:06:09] reasons. Perhaps you already have a campaign doing it. Perhaps you know they
[03:06:11] campaign doing it. Perhaps you know they don't convert well. or it's just a
[03:06:12] don't convert well. or it's just a market that you don't want Amazon
[03:06:14] market that you don't want Amazon conflating and accidentally promoting
[03:06:16] conflating and accidentally promoting in. So, I could say keto electrolytes
[03:06:18] in. So, I could say keto electrolytes isn't part of my brand. I don't want to
[03:06:20] isn't part of my brand. I don't want to target that because I want people on the
[03:06:22] target that because I want people on the carnivore diet, not the keto diet. So,
[03:06:24] carnivore diet, not the keto diet. So, we could put that in there and we could
[03:06:26] we could put that in there and we could hit add keyword. And now it will not
[03:06:28] hit add keyword. And now it will not target the keyword keto electrolytes. We
[03:06:31] target the keyword keto electrolytes. We can also do a phrase. Phrase and exact
[03:06:33] can also do a phrase. Phrase and exact are the two types of keywords you will
[03:06:35] are the two types of keywords you will find on Amazon PPC. An exact keyword
[03:06:38] find on Amazon PPC. An exact keyword means that it won't target exactly keto
[03:06:41] means that it won't target exactly keto electrolytes. Whereas a phrase keyword
[03:06:43] electrolytes. Whereas a phrase keyword means it won't target any keywords that
[03:06:46] means it won't target any keywords that have the words keto electrolytes in it.
[03:06:48] have the words keto electrolytes in it. For instance, keto electrolyte diet or
[03:06:50] For instance, keto electrolyte diet or keto diet electrolytes that is included
[03:06:53] keto diet electrolytes that is included within a phrase. And if we wanted to get
[03:06:55] within a phrase. And if we wanted to get that more broadband right there, that
[03:06:57] that more broadband right there, that broadband on that keyword, we could put
[03:06:59] broadband on that keyword, we could put it in as a phrase negative keyword.
[03:07:02] it in as a phrase negative keyword. Going down here, we can see dynamic bids
[03:07:04] Going down here, we can see dynamic bids up and down, dynamic bids down only, and
[03:07:06] up and down, dynamic bids down only, and fixed bids. Dynamic bids up and down
[03:07:08] fixed bids. Dynamic bids up and down will allow your bids to adjust up and
[03:07:10] will allow your bids to adjust up and down whether Amazon when up when Amazon
[03:07:13] down whether Amazon when up when Amazon thinks that you are more likely to have
[03:07:14] thinks that you are more likely to have a sale and down when Amazon thinks you
[03:07:17] a sale and down when Amazon thinks you are less likely. Now, the Amazon AI
[03:07:19] are less likely. Now, the Amazon AI system for advertising is powerful and I
[03:07:22] system for advertising is powerful and I recommend that you go with this top
[03:07:23] recommend that you go with this top option right here because it will let
[03:07:25] option right here because it will let Amazon go to work with what it does
[03:07:27] Amazon go to work with what it does best. It will, you know, raise your bid
[03:07:29] best. It will, you know, raise your bid sometimes. Yes, it will. when you want
[03:07:31] sometimes. Yes, it will. when you want to spend more, when you're more likely
[03:07:33] to spend more, when you're more likely to get a sale, and lower it down when
[03:07:35] to get a sale, and lower it down when it's not. Otherwise, it's just limiting
[03:07:37] it's not. Otherwise, it's just limiting your power with advertising. I can't
[03:07:38] your power with advertising. I can't think of many reasons that I'd go for
[03:07:40] think of many reasons that I'd go for the fixed bids unless there's a very,
[03:07:42] the fixed bids unless there's a very, very specific situation. Scrolling down
[03:07:44] very specific situation. Scrolling down even further, we can see the bid
[03:07:47] even further, we can see the bid adjustments. Now, the bid adjustments
[03:07:49] adjustments. Now, the bid adjustments right here, another very important thing
[03:07:51] right here, another very important thing right here. In the bid adjustments, you
[03:07:53] right here. In the bid adjustments, you can choose what part of being on the
[03:07:56] can choose what part of being on the live you want to emphasize. So, there's
[03:07:59] live you want to emphasize. So, there's different placement areas where your
[03:08:01] different placement areas where your sponsored listing can show up. So, your
[03:08:03] sponsored listing can show up. So, your sponsored listing can show up at the top
[03:08:04] sponsored listing can show up at the top of the page. It could show up other
[03:08:06] of the page. It could show up other places on the search or it could show up
[03:08:08] places on the search or it could show up on the product pages. So, if we navigate
[03:08:10] on the product pages. So, if we navigate back over to Amazon right here, let's
[03:08:14] back over to Amazon right here, let's just do a little quick search and search
[03:08:16] just do a little quick search and search for uh what's a product? Let's just say
[03:08:19] for uh what's a product? Let's just say we're searching for orange juice. We
[03:08:20] we're searching for orange juice. We want some orange juice. Now, we see
[03:08:22] want some orange juice. Now, we see these sponsor listings at the very top
[03:08:24] these sponsor listings at the very top of the page right here. There's a few
[03:08:26] of the page right here. There's a few different listings. Very cool. We see
[03:08:27] different listings. Very cool. We see them. see them. And then as we scroll
[03:08:29] them. see them. And then as we scroll down, we see a few different things too.
[03:08:32] down, we see a few different things too. We see these sponsored listings at the
[03:08:34] We see these sponsored listings at the bottom. So this is the top of the page
[03:08:35] bottom. So this is the top of the page right here. This is the rest of search
[03:08:38] right here. This is the rest of search right here where you see these sponsored
[03:08:39] right here where you see these sponsored listings down here. And then if we were
[03:08:41] listings down here. And then if we were to click onto one of these product
[03:08:43] to click onto one of these product pages, we can see um sponsored listings
[03:08:46] pages, we can see um sponsored listings on the product pages. So these are the
[03:08:48] on the product pages. So these are the three right here that I would recommend
[03:08:50] three right here that I would recommend um or that that are the three that you
[03:08:52] um or that that are the three that you can show up under. Amazon will often
[03:08:54] can show up under. Amazon will often recommend raising your bid for the top
[03:08:56] recommend raising your bid for the top of the search page, right? These are the
[03:08:57] of the search page, right? These are the most valuable clicks because these are
[03:08:59] most valuable clicks because these are the things that people will see right
[03:09:01] the things that people will see right away. Oftentimes, people are really
[03:09:03] away. Oftentimes, people are really likely to make a decision if they see it
[03:09:04] likely to make a decision if they see it to the top. Some people won't even
[03:09:06] to the top. Some people won't even realize that it's a sponsored listing
[03:09:07] realize that it's a sponsored listing and we'll just see it as the first
[03:09:08] and we'll just see it as the first result and think it's the one that
[03:09:10] result and think it's the one that Amazon recommends. So, the top of the
[03:09:12] Amazon recommends. So, the top of the search results are often the most
[03:09:14] search results are often the most expensive places to place your product,
[03:09:16] expensive places to place your product, but they're often the highest converting
[03:09:18] but they're often the highest converting as well. So, right there can be a very,
[03:09:21] as well. So, right there can be a very, very valuable place to place it. And
[03:09:23] very valuable place to place it. And often times, I recommend raising your
[03:09:25] often times, I recommend raising your bid here a lot. Yes, you can do down
[03:09:27] bid here a lot. Yes, you can do down only, but in my opinion, especially when
[03:09:29] only, but in my opinion, especially when you're doing an automatic campaign for
[03:09:31] you're doing an automatic campaign for the purpose of finding keywords and
[03:09:33] the purpose of finding keywords and honing in your advertising, the goal is
[03:09:36] honing in your advertising, the goal is to have as much exposure as possible.
[03:09:38] to have as much exposure as possible. And if you can stand the budget, I
[03:09:40] And if you can stand the budget, I highly recommend doing up and down so
[03:09:42] highly recommend doing up and down so you can do it. Now, when you're down the
[03:09:44] you can do it. Now, when you're down the line and you're focused more on the
[03:09:46] line and you're focused more on the profitability, yes, it makes sense to
[03:09:48] profitability, yes, it makes sense to make optimizations to your ad campaigns
[03:09:50] make optimizations to your ad campaigns to make them more profitable. But at the
[03:09:52] to make them more profitable. But at the beginning, I'm really in the business of
[03:09:54] beginning, I'm really in the business of I'm going to spend a bunch of money,
[03:09:55] I'm going to spend a bunch of money, even if it's not profitable. Number one,
[03:09:57] even if it's not profitable. Number one, it will get my listing sales, and it
[03:09:59] it will get my listing sales, and it will help that first couple weeks when
[03:10:00] will help that first couple weeks when you're selling on Amazon and you want as
[03:10:02] you're selling on Amazon and you want as many sales to start ranking highly from
[03:10:04] many sales to start ranking highly from the get-go. And number two, we're going
[03:10:06] the get-go. And number two, we're going to start to discover the keywords that
[03:10:08] to start to discover the keywords that work well that we can further target in
[03:10:10] work well that we can further target in on those campaigns down the line. Now,
[03:10:12] on those campaigns down the line. Now, we can set the campaign name. We're just
[03:10:14] we can set the campaign name. We're just going to call this Jan 3rd. And we can
[03:10:16] going to call this Jan 3rd. And we can set the daily budget. It says suggested
[03:10:18] set the daily budget. It says suggested 15. 15 is pretty low, but just for
[03:10:20] 15. 15 is pretty low, but just for example purposes, I'll start this. You
[03:10:22] example purposes, I'll start this. You can see a little estimate, this forecast
[03:10:24] can see a little estimate, this forecast here. Don't trust these numbers too
[03:10:26] here. Don't trust these numbers too much. It's not going to know too much
[03:10:27] much. It's not going to know too much until it actually starts running. But we
[03:10:29] until it actually starts running. But we can go ahead and start this campaign.
[03:10:31] can go ahead and start this campaign. Now, we got this campaign rolling. In
[03:10:33] Now, we got this campaign rolling. In the meantime, what we can do is I'm
[03:10:35] the meantime, what we can do is I'm going to show you an existing campaign
[03:10:37] going to show you an existing campaign that we have so I can dive into some of
[03:10:38] that we have so I can dive into some of these numbers right here. Um, let's see
[03:10:40] these numbers right here. Um, let's see right here. Carnival Electrolytes Auto
[03:10:42] right here. Carnival Electrolytes Auto Test. If we go into this campaign right
[03:10:44] Test. If we go into this campaign right here, uh, let me back this out. this
[03:10:47] here, uh, let me back this out. this date range here in a second. So, we can
[03:10:49] date range here in a second. So, we can see a lifetime of this campaign. We can
[03:10:51] see a lifetime of this campaign. We can see all the money we spent. We spent
[03:10:52] see all the money we spent. We spent $2,000, made 3,000. So, not a very
[03:10:55] $2,000, made 3,000. So, not a very profitable campaign, but the point of
[03:10:56] profitable campaign, but the point of this campaign was not to be profitable.
[03:10:58] this campaign was not to be profitable. This point of this campaign was to rank
[03:11:00] This point of this campaign was to rank on some keywords, help us rank for some
[03:11:02] on some keywords, help us rank for some keywords that we weren't ranking for to
[03:11:04] keywords that we weren't ranking for to hopefully get some organic keyword sales
[03:11:05] hopefully get some organic keyword sales for down the line. And number two, to
[03:11:07] for down the line. And number two, to find keywords we can further target in.
[03:11:10] find keywords we can further target in. You know, the retarget marketing is
[03:11:11] You know, the retarget marketing is really where you can get your best bang
[03:11:13] really where you can get your best bang for the buck. But let's click on in on
[03:11:15] for the buck. But let's click on in on this one more time. And then let's go
[03:11:16] this one more time. And then let's go over to the search terms. Uh we'll do
[03:11:18] over to the search terms. Uh we'll do the last 65 days. That's not going to
[03:11:20] the last 65 days. That's not going to include the full campaign, but we can
[03:11:22] include the full campaign, but we can see here. Let's sort by um let's sort by
[03:11:27] see here. Let's sort by um let's sort by orders right here. And sort it going up.
[03:11:30] orders right here. And sort it going up. And we can see that the biggest keyword
[03:11:31] And we can see that the biggest keyword of all was carnivore electrolytes that
[03:11:33] of all was carnivore electrolytes that got which is the product's name itself.
[03:11:34] got which is the product's name itself. It makes sense. They got 30 orders off
[03:11:38] It makes sense. They got 30 orders off of this much spend. So about 57%
[03:11:42] of this much spend. So about 57% a cost. Um not incredible, not terrible
[03:11:45] a cost. Um not incredible, not terrible either. We have some better ones right
[03:11:46] either. We have some better ones right below it. Carnivore electrolyte without
[03:11:48] below it. Carnivore electrolyte without the s has an a cost. And for those of
[03:11:50] the s has an a cost. And for those of you who don't know, a cost is the
[03:11:52] you who don't know, a cost is the advertising cost of sales. So what
[03:11:55] advertising cost of sales. So what percentage of our sale are we spending
[03:11:58] percentage of our sale are we spending on advertising? So 57% is very high.
[03:12:00] on advertising? So 57% is very high. That's over half the sale we're spending
[03:12:01] That's over half the sale we're spending on advertising. Now this product has a
[03:12:03] on advertising. Now this product has a high profit margin. So we can afford
[03:12:05] high profit margin. So we can afford that. That's not really losing us too
[03:12:07] that. That's not really losing us too much money. But to be really profitable,
[03:12:09] much money. But to be really profitable, I recommend something down like this
[03:12:11] I recommend something down like this 14%. This, you know, we're in the green
[03:12:13] 14%. This, you know, we're in the green with this. We spent $25 and made about
[03:12:16] with this. We spent $25 and made about $172 in sales right here. This one right
[03:12:20] $172 in sales right here. This one right here as well, we spent $35, got five
[03:12:22] here as well, we spent $35, got five sales for a total ad cost of 20. So,
[03:12:26] sales for a total ad cost of 20. So, that's really good. This one, 7%, these
[03:12:28] that's really good. This one, 7%, these are all really good. Magnesium for
[03:12:29] are all really good. Magnesium for carnivore diet. And what we can do if we
[03:12:31] carnivore diet. And what we can do if we see these keywords that are working
[03:12:33] see these keywords that are working really well, I could take these two
[03:12:34] really well, I could take these two keywords right here that converted at a
[03:12:36] keywords right here that converted at a pretty good rate right here, magnesium
[03:12:38] pretty good rate right here, magnesium for carnivore diet and uh this one right
[03:12:40] for carnivore diet and uh this one right here, and I can create a manual campaign
[03:12:42] here, and I can create a manual campaign where I target those in even more. And
[03:12:45] where I target those in even more. And with that manual campaign, it's going to
[03:12:47] with that manual campaign, it's going to go to work to specifically target this
[03:12:49] go to work to specifically target this because this automatic campaign has
[03:12:50] because this automatic campaign has showed these keywords are working well
[03:12:52] showed these keywords are working well on the automatic campaign. If we do a
[03:12:54] on the automatic campaign. If we do a further manual campaign where we target
[03:12:56] further manual campaign where we target in even more, we can have even more
[03:12:59] in even more, we can have even more success with that. So, that's something
[03:13:01] success with that. So, that's something really great to know. Now, I'm going to
[03:13:03] really great to know. Now, I'm going to show you an extra tool. If you guys are
[03:13:04] show you an extra tool. If you guys are on Helium 10, this is what I love using

[03:13:47] 2025. Now, that we're in Helium 10. Another very, really cool part of Helium
[03:13:49] Another very, really cool part of Helium 10 is Adtomic. Now, what does Adtomic
[03:13:52] 10 is Adtomic. Now, what does Adtomic do? Atomic is an AI ads manager from
[03:13:55] do? Atomic is an AI ads manager from Helium 10. So basically, you can
[03:13:57] Helium 10. So basically, you can transfer your campaigns over to Helium
[03:14:00] transfer your campaigns over to Helium 10. And there are so many little tools
[03:14:02] 10. And there are so many little tools in here to make advertising so much
[03:14:04] in here to make advertising so much easier, especially if you're a beginner,
[03:14:06] easier, especially if you're a beginner, if you don't really know about
[03:14:07] if you don't really know about optimization and everything. And you
[03:14:09] optimization and everything. And you know, I actually use this on a different
[03:14:10] know, I actually use this on a different account, so I don't have it turned on
[03:14:12] account, so I don't have it turned on here. There is an AI advertising feature
[03:14:15] here. There is an AI advertising feature with Adtomic where you can put your
[03:14:17] with Adtomic where you can put your product in. You can say the ad cost that
[03:14:19] product in. You can say the ad cost that you're trying to target. So, let's just
[03:14:20] you're trying to target. So, let's just say you're trying to get under 20 to 20%
[03:14:22] say you're trying to get under 20 to 20% at cost and you put that in, it will go
[03:14:25] at cost and you put that in, it will go to work with spending your budget and
[03:14:27] to work with spending your budget and optimizing it using Helium 10's massive
[03:14:30] optimizing it using Helium 10's massive database. This is probably one of the
[03:14:33] database. This is probably one of the best the best ways of selling on Amazon
[03:14:37] best the best ways of selling on Amazon and and running your PPC campaign. So,
[03:14:39] and and running your PPC campaign. So, especially if you already have Helium 10
[03:14:40] especially if you already have Helium 10 account, you might as well tap into this
[03:14:42] account, you might as well tap into this and use it. Definitely something I

[03:16:14] succeed. When people watch my videos, my free videos, I love to see them actually
[03:16:17] free videos, I love to see them actually take action. And what I've seen is

[03:16:30] about this so much. That's why I believe in it so much. It's something that I
[03:16:32] in it so much. It's something that I wish I would have had when I would have
[03:16:33] wish I would have had when I would have started. It would have probably saved me
[03:16:35] started. It would have probably saved me tens if not hundreds of thousands of
[03:16:36] tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. Literally, I made so many
[03:16:38] dollars. Literally, I made so many mistakes at the beginning. And I don't
