b"Have you ever dreamed of leaving? Not just your office or warehouse. Have you dreamed of getting away? Really away? Well EJ and his wife have done just that. He has stepped away from the United States and is running his 7 figure Amazon business currently from Thailand. I think most people stop at the dreaming stage because it seems like an all or nothing when EJ will tell you its really not. See he works everyday, has a planning call everyday from another country. There are many lessons in this episode. Start dreaming.......

I mean, we're currently have a team of uh, asx. Um, so it's just, you know, I think the hardest part is always just making sure everybody's up to speed, you know, the amount of information or amount of knowledge that most Amazon sellers have or experienced sellers have is, is, you know, pretty extensive. So really allocating that time to train people properly and get them up to speed is, it takes a long time. I mean, it took us about a year to really get

Cool voice guy:\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 00:31\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 well, we focus on the people, the products and the process of ecommerce cylinder your host Steven leaders in.

Stephen:\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 00:43\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 I'm excited to talk about two sponsors only to this time. First off, the seller them's and the reason sellerlabs first because it's so point of mine. I was using it today working with scope and we have all new wholesale line that we're bringing in and um, some stuff's on Amazon, most of it's not, but we're looking at what's driving the competitors because these are good products. What's driving the competitor's sales? And so you do reverse asin search and you figure it out and then you compare it against your key words and the key there is, is you compare change something, test and adjust. That's the key. And so seven day free trial, use my code. You're going to save 50 bucks. It's solar lamps.com, forward slash momentum. And do it. Just go sign up if you're in wholesale or if you're a retailer and you're representing a brand, I mean if you're selling a brand for wholesale or you're doing private label scope is the right tool for you.

Stephen:\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 01:37\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0 And it's the tool we're using right now. It is so current for us. And that's why I had to pop them up first. The second sponsor I want to talk about is Gaye Lisby's million dollar group. Um, it's mind blowing now. It's q four and it's, you know, just came off of black Friday and all that jazz. Um, and I, I get excited, I see the posts in there, I'm in the group. And so if you join, you're going to see me in there. But what's so cool is I saw somebody, you know, hit their million dollar number and everybody was celebrating, but what's even cooler for me, if somebody hit their $250,000 number, it's not that long ago when we all hit that number and it starts to get to that place where you're making, you know, 50, 60, $70,000, all of a sudden this starts to be real.
