    #940: Not succeeding yet on Amazon? You're probably asking the wrong questions. Here's the top 10 "wrong questions" that we hear.

    We hear many of the same questions from Amazon sellers who haven't yet started to succeed. It could be because they are just new to Amazon selling and don't know what they don't know, or maybe they are getting bad advice from watching a few too many youtube videos from "experts" who lack a track record of producing student success.   Regardless, on today's episode we share our top ten list of the "wrong questions" that we hear asked in our group and help direct you towards the PROVEN path to success that we've shared with so many other listeners to our podcast as well as students of the ProvenAmazonCourse.com training. Here's the list of questions covered: What’s a good source for profitable products? How can I win the buy box on Amazon more consistently? How do I get ungated for new brands or categories? How can I boost my sales and sell more of my product? What software will help me find a good niche on Amazon? What’s the best way to have a hands free Amazon business? How can I find a good wholesaler? What’s the best china source to start with? How much money will I need to get started? I heard it’s expensive.

    What if you only needed a list of ASINs (Amazon listings) and then a powerful, low cost software took over and told you when to buy and when not to buy all the ASIN's on your list?   What if that tool was also a complete workflow tool for REPLENS sellers?   That's what Khang has built and he's used it to run a $3million Amazon reselling business virtually hands free.
