This week we welcome back Steven Loi who was on the show on Episode 45 Steven is an exceptional Amazon seller who rubs shoulders with and regularly masterminds with some of the best in the business. So when Steven shares his secrets to his Amazon success, you’d best listen.

Steven explains how it’s easier to rank products on Amazon today than at any time in Amazon’s history.

Today we go deep (and I mean deep) into the way that he’s able to rank his products No 1 on Amazon, even for super competitive keywords and phrases.

Steven reveals exactly how he optimises his listings and the surprising keyword relevance methodology he uses to gain maximum exposure and rankings before he even launches. It makes ‘the last mile’ of ranking top of page one easier.

This is the latest and most up-to-date ranking methodology – so if you want to rank your products for targeted and competitive keywords, get your notepad out and start scribbling.

Neil Asher from Aussie Online Entrepreneurs joins me this week! I had another issue with sound quality this week so not quite up to the standard you’re used to, sorry!

We chat about how he got started selling on Amazon, failed in his first attempt but he dusted himself off and has now created a multimillion-dollar Amazon empire, spanning all Amazon’s English speaking marketplaces, Amazon USA, Canada, Australia and India

So we talk about what it takes to set up on Amazon India, how he was able to set himself up there and how’s the Indian Marketplace has worked for him.

He also talks about how he drives super-cheap traffic from YouTube to his Amazon listings.

Of course, we also chat about Amazon Australia.

On today’s show please make welcome Marg Jolly, a great friend of mine who sells on Amazon and lives in Geelong!

Today’s Marg shares her story about how she got started through Adam Hudson’s Reliable Education course. Sadly, her first product she sourced from China didn’t work out so great – and she quickly realised that in order to go to the next level needed to seriously immerse herself in Facebook Groups, Masterminds, and meeting other local Amazon sellers.

Courses are a great way to start, but often masterminding, networking and 1-1 coaching can be super effective to help you reach your goals.

Marg now sources from India, via a supplier she met in Hong Kong on her way to the Canton fair!

Since that serendipitous crossing of paths to find her new Indian supplier, she and her partner Kevin are getting very close to their goal of making $100,000 in profit (not revenue) per year.

We also touch on Amazon’s Transparency program, part of Project Zero – Amazon’s program to stamp out counterfeiting on their platform.

I love Marg’s story because it’s real. Selling products on Amazon is often a grind, requiring persistence and tenacity and isn’t an ‘easy path to riches’ as some might have you believe!

On today’s show we welcome back to the show, Tim Jordan from Private Label Legion for Part 2 of our 2-part deep dive into Product research and Product launching.

On today’s show we cover a lot.

Tim’s a big fan of launching with Amazon Sponsored Ads so we dive deeply into that. We also talk about product reviews and the best way to get them!

We chat about other marketplaces outside of Amazon, and whether they’re worth pursuing.

Tim likes to test things out first before getting too far ahead with Brands and Trademarks and shopify sites and all that advanced stuff, but if a line of products takes off, he’s all in.

Finally Tim talks about the ‘end game’ experience of selling an Amazon business and how he was able to exit with a large 6 figure payday from his first Amazon business.
