I've had the entrepreneurial bug since I was 13.
If I'm being honest, it all started when I realized that all I had to do was ask my neighbors if they needed their lawns mowed.
This lead to me launching a two person moving business in college to pay my way through college. While most of my friends were making $10/hour max, I was bringing in $25/hour doing my own things.
Most people know me for bootstrapping 5 private label brands on Amazon in 2014, scaling them to $10 million in sales and exiting for a lucrative 7 figures in 2019.
I did this by keeping things simple.
Instead of obsessing over every tiny detail, I realized early on that outsourcing is truly the key to success on Amazon. I hired an agency for off-Amazon social media, a PPC agency, and a suite of software programs to make life a little easier. I even had a full time USA based employee and a full time VA in the Philippines.
Every operational decision that I made was focused on one thing: EXITING.
What I'm up to NOW:
1/ Black Label Advisor: I advise Amazon sellers ranging from complete beginners to 9-figure DTC brand owners trying to dominate the space. i also have the great privilege of helping journalists craft hard hitting pieces to attempt to keep Amazon accountable.
2/ Amazon Insiders: Now, the fastest growing Amazon seller newsletter in America. I still cannot believe that is the case. Very grateful. 18,300 strong and it's only February!
3/ Twitter (27,000 followers): This is easily my favorite social media channel. After my newsletter, this is where I publish all my best stuff. Give me a follow @BlackLabelAdvsr and join the party! What Elon Musk has done with the platform is truly magical. What's Threads?
My Promise
I love helping Amazon sellers simplify their businesses and achieve their dream exit.
I also have a very liberal open door policy. To this day, I respond to each and every DM and email. Don't be shy!
What is one way you keep things simple inside your Amazon business?
P.S. I am on a mission to make selling on Amazon simpler for millions 🔥🔥
let’s paint a picture.
you meet a guy. he’s in a relationship. but then you get talking. you enjoy talking to each other. the vibe is just right. you laugh a lot together. do stuff together. have numerous conversations together. everything seems so harmless until…
I'm truly overwhelmed by the support and encouragement that I have received throughout this incredible journey. Words cannot express how grateful I am to each and everyone of you that played a part in transforming my life.
Thank you all.
