    #1168: Stop reading the shadows: The Amazon data edge nobody taught you

    Two sellers pull up the same ASIN. Same Keepa chart. One buys, one walks and both think they're right. They're not. They're staring at the same data and seeing two completely different markets. Here's the problem: Amazon changed how it reports sales rank, and most sellers never updated their eyes. They're still counting rank drops like it's 2022, reading shadows on the wall instead of looking at what's actually there.   In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy show you how to see it.   You'll learn: - The one number that quietly replaced rank drops and why it's a far more honest signal of real demand  - Why velocity is the starting line, not the finish line (and the 3-step check that keeps you from lighting $20 bills on fire) - The geography edge hiding in ~30% of ASINs - how 150+ fulfillment centers create regional price gaps you can sell into, above the buy box - Why testing isn't a cost to avoid - it's the only way to see what no tool or chart can tell you. The data was always there. The geography was always there. The sellers who learn to see it are playing a completely different game than the ones still reading the chart the old way.   It's not what you look at that matters. It's what you see.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If my bank statements don't show the full account number, should I switch banks?"

    #1167: Selling seven figures on Amazon U.S. as a reseller from Australia

    Today's guest Geroge Dimitriou lives in Australia and is crushing it selling on Amazon.com U.S. without ever seeing or touching his inventory! He's sold millions worth of inventory at great margins without ever touching any of his products - and it's all "OA" (online arbitrage - aka, online sourcing). He uses a U.S. based prep center to receive the products he orders and has them shipped to Amazon FBA from there - which is the strategy that ProvenAmazonCourse.com students use if they are non-U.S. based students, as well as those who live in the U.S. who don't want to physically have to prep and manage their own inventory.   He's also the creator of AstorAdvancedAnalytics - a tool that's gaining popularity quickly especially among 3PMercury users!   Astro can scrape through massive product lists (i.e. a wholesale list) and find winning ASINs quickly. It's gaining a lot of popularity in our community of listeners so we thought it was time to have George on the show!   We discuss at length the "two steps to success" on Amazon for resellers which are: 1) FIND LOADS OF GREAT ASINS (which is what Astro helps with), and 2) LET SOFTWARE TELL YOU WHEN AND WHAT TO SELL AND MANAGE THE WORKFLOW OF YOUR BUSINESS (which is what 3PMercury does for you).   George will also be with us at the upcoming TheProvenConference.com which will be only the second time ever visiting the U.S. ,but we are excited to welcome him back to join us in Vegas in August - and we hope you can attend as well!   Don't forget to check out our episode sponsor, Sellerboard, our awesome sponsor - THE accurate profit analytics tool for Amazon sellers that helps you calculate your profit precisely, accounting for all hidden fees and in real time. Use our link and get a free trial: https://SilentJim.com/numbers    Watch this episode on our YouTube channel here: https://youtu.be/fKxuPKhkWGU   Show note LINKS:   Astroadvancedanalytics.com - coupon code MYSILENTTEAM25 to save 25%   PrepCenterNetwork.com - a list of all known prep centers   ProvenWholesaleSourcing.com  - Learn the wholesale sourcing strategies discussed on today's episode   TheProvenConference.com - Learn more about our upcoming August 2026 event!

Today we meet with the creator of 3PMercury.com software that has revolutionized and injected AI into the strategy of 100s of Amazon resellers, forever changing the way they are approaching Amazon selling.   We talk about the latest automations and excitedly announce the new shipping features that are coming soon!

    #1165: Reading between the Keepa lines: What the chart isn't showing you

    Three coaching calls in one week. Three different sellers. Same problem - they were all passing on ASINs because of what Keepa wasn't showing them. In this episode, Brian and Robin Joy unpack the blind spots hiding in plain sight on every Keepa chart: the "dead" listing that's actually just chronically out of stock, the buy box price that changes depending on which region you're standing in, and the sales that happen at prices Keepa never even logs. The old signals, rank drops, offer counts, the national buy box, trained an entire generation of resellers to read the chart one way. Amazon changed the building. Keepa is still one window.   This episode is about learning to walk around to the other side.   Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "What is the inform act and how scary is it?

    #1163: How even new resellers can quickly find 100s of ungated brands to sell on Amazon

    New Amazon resellers often report that they struggle to find brands and products that they are eligible (ungated) to sell when they first get started as a new reseller on Amazon. There are incredible tools emerging right now that completely resolve that challenge - today I talk to the creator of a very effective, simple tool called MultiSellerPro - (visit SilentJim.com/msp for a discount).   MSP crawls the accounts of other Amazon sellers looking for qualified, ungated products and builds a constantly monitored catalog that over time alerts you as any gated brands/products become ungated - and that's just one of numerous features!   Watch this episode on our YouTube  channel here: https://youtu.be/-bwoZt8Pack   Show note LINKS:   SilentJim.com/msp - MultiSeller Pro   3pmercury.com/friends - The best pricing on 3pMercury software!   ProvenAmazonCourse.com - The comprehensive course that contains ALL our Amazon training modules, recorded events and a steady stream of latest cutting edge training including of course the most popular starting point, the REPLENS selling model.
