When I was at my 9-5 i'd spend most nights sourcing. Most of my best sourcing sessions were when id be able to spend 6-8 hours sourcing in one session. That usally happens on weekends. and those are when the questions start flying. Put your questions below and I will be replying! See a question you have the answer to?

May Numbers : - Sales: $7,596.50 - Orders: 157 - Units: 160 - Gross profit: $940.24 - Indirect expenses (prep + software subscriptions): $390.25 - Net profit: $549 - Net margin: 7.24% - Refunds: 11 (6.88% refund rate) - Cash spent on inventory: $3,941.78 Last month I set a simple goal: have my first profitable month in May. Hitting that milestone feels really good, especially because it’s my first month fully on my own after finishing the mentorship cohort with @Anthony Mancini . The anxiety was definitely there, but the work I put in during those three months paid off. The buying decisions I made in April have started to show up this month in May. From a performance standpoint, I actually slowed my spending a bit this month. Life has been life-ing. Between my carpentry job and my commercial cleaning business, I’ve been working 60–70 hours a week, and that has definitely affected how much I can source. Even with that, I still managed to put in around 10–15 hours a week into sourcing. Some days just 1–2 hours, some days 4–5, and some days nothing because I was burnt out to be honest. One thing that’s becoming clear: if I want this to keep growing, I’ll need help. The goal is to get the business consistently profitable enough that it can pay for a VA to source while I’m at my day job or working my cleaning contracts. Realistically, a VA won’t be fully paying for themselves for the first month or two while they train and learn the software and techniques. If I can bring someone on in July or August, that should put me in a strong position heading into Q4. For June, my focus is to ramp up sourcing again and increase my spend, but be much more selective with what I buy. I want to push my net margins to at least 10% after all expenses. The last four months have shown me that this business really is learnable if you’re willing to put in the hours, make mistakes early, and keep refining your process. The first profitable month is a milestone, not the finish line but it’s a big one.

This one is specifically for anyone who feels stuck in one of these phases: 1. You don’t know what to search 2. Everything you find looks gated 3. The only profitable sources seem to be in the US 4. Shipping/currency conversion keeps killing the deal In the video, I show the actual workflow I use to find products from Canadian-accessible sources: - Starting from a real Amazon.ca product example - Using Keepa Product Finder - Building a seller ID list - Filtering for products that actually sell - Using CanFlip to avoid wasting time on products you can’t sell - Deciding if a lead is a buy, track, or skip This is not generic US Amazon FBA advice. It’s built around the Canadian market. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/HY0_54jdXbQ?si=RGh_9mP_KKud4R_x Do me a quick favour, after you watch, leave a comment on the YouTube video telling me which phase you’re currently stuck in: - “I don’t know what to search” - “Everything is gated” - “I can’t find Canadian sources” - “I’m finding products but the numbers don’t work” I’ll use the comments to know what to make next, and I’ll try to reply to as many as I can over there.

Hello! I’m new here and new to amazon selling. I have spent days trying to source mg first inventory but I cant seem to find a legit “authorized distributor/wholesaler” that Amazon would accept for ungating. I found products by sellerID snooping but would end up not getting anything as the distributors’ website often asks for business registration and I dont have that. Can someone help me, please? My premiums for the apps like keepa & sellerAmp are running and I have not been able to order anything from anywhere. 😭😭😭

Does anyone else new have problems sourcing. I've spent hours trying and so far I've come up with always being gated or super unprofitable using sellerID method or Amazon owns the buy box. This is frustrating. I'm committed but haven't found one thing that I can actually buy in Canada? Any tips would be wonderful.
