Today I start off by discussing how important it is to educate yourself and that the purpose of this podcast is to help you learn and be prepared for your own business. I discuss what\u2019s going on right now in our economy. Amazon fulfillment centers are overflowing and products are getting restrictions on what we can send in to Amazon. I talk about how much the centers have grown this year versus how much they have grown in the past. I talk over what you should be doing right now to react to this explosion of growth. I give advice on some things you should be doing, such as checking on your inventory frequently so that you don\u2019t forget what you have and miss opportunities to sell. I discuss the pandemic and that it isn\u2019t going to go away soon, but we at least have a few more months, meaning Amazon likely will continue to grow and E-commerce will continue to do really well. I talk about the buy box and how things have been changing in favor of larger companies. I bring up the issue of how much power Amazon has gained and equality in the marketplace.

\u201cUnderstand that Amazon this last year has opened up 50% more fulfillment center space in just a year, and it\u2019s already filled it up. I don\u2019t know if that rings a bell to you, because it should. We\u2019re talking about the best logistics network in the world grew by 50% percent in a single year.\u201d 3:58
