@FBASellerGuy Great info, thanks!
I’ve noticed that every FNSKU that has a dropdown arrow in the Reason column, has already been either Found or Reimbursed.
I focused on the ones without a dropdown arrow and got reimbursed for all of them.
@SaulSellsStuff Exactly! A2A + OA combo has many advantages: Grab more stock. Discover a new site.
And – if gated and you can’t buy 50 pieces from Amazon – OA can be used for ungating.
1. If I repeated every action I took today, every day for a year, where would I end up?
2. Is this the place I want to be?
If you're confident in your current path, this prompt will help you be more patient.
But if you're on the wrong path, it will help you course correct.
Prompt 5: The Compounding Projection
It's cliché, but all successful outcomes come from compounding.
Our success (or failure) is a result of tiny, daily actions compounded over time.
But in the moment, it can be hard to gauge your progress.
So ask yourself these 2 questions:
New feature on @SellerAmp showing toggle for "VAT on fees".
If you are VAT registered, AND if you're NOT VAT registered, you will want to toggle this to "Yes" when sourcing from TODAY.
Leaving this as "NO" when you're NOT VAT reg will lose you a lot of money!
Your August profit and ROI% will be very disappointing,
if you are a UK non-VAT registered seller
and you are still sourcing without having changed your SAS VAT settings.
But as per August, the non-VAT registered seller will have to select in Selleramp SAS the ‘Not Registered’ VAT scheme and VAT will be calculated on all Amazon fees.
£3.05 profit and 30.5% ROI
Something OA and wholesale guys don't talk about is $1000 compounded at 12.5%(extremely extremely extremely extremely conservative) quarterly, in 10 years is over $110,000. Playing the long game > everything else
The same money invested in the stock market would be MAYBE $2500.
My family thinks I'm crazy, I think they're crazier. When you start thinking about OA/wholesale as an investment vehicle it starts looking a lot better.
Where else can you turn $40,000 ----> $10,000,000 while paying for living expenses in 10 years?
@dickiebush A perfect head fake: Learn Dutch (as you are in Amsterdam) and live like a local.
This will strengthen your concentration, communication skills and creativity.

New episode featuring Stanford professor, neurobiologist, and host of the incredibly popular Huberman Lab Podcast, Dr. Andrew Huberman (@hubermanlab).
What makes Andrew truly exceptional is his ability to translate scientific findings into practical, actionable advice, enabling listeners to leverage new understandings of biology and neurobiology to improve their lives.
In this episode, Dr. Huberman showcases his truly immense knowledge of the brain's dopamine system, which is incredibly central to many modern issues of motivation and attention that many of us struggle with.
The public perception of Dr. Huberman's work often focuses on his unique distillations of protocols, but what I particularly enjoyed about this conversation was finding a common thread: the benefit of having an essential life philosophy of valuing "hard effort" over outcomes, something Andrew refers to as "forward center of mass."
This podcast explains down to a neurobiological level why embracing discomfort can activate our motivation circuits, elevate dopamine and other catecholamine levels, and retrain brain regions like the anterior midcingulate cortex, ultimately growing our capacity for effort and striving at a fundamental level.
A big thank you to Andrew for equipping us with this knowledge, enabling us to apply these insights for individual personal and professional growth.
