• #1163: How even new resellers can quickly find 100s of ungated brands to sell on Amazon
    May 15 2026

    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!

  • #1162: The Amazon reseller's secret edge
    May 13 2026

    You're doing the work. You're following the playbook from the videos, the socials, the group platforms. And something still isn't clicking.

    Here's what nobody's telling you: a lot of that advice was accurate 5 or 10 years ago. Some of it still is. Some of it isn't. And nobody's sorting it out for you.

    In the kickoff to a four-part Coach's Corner series, Brian and Robin Joy lay out the four shifts Amazon quietly built into the platform while the older content kept aging in place. None of them are hacks. All of them are visible to anyone paying attention.

    1. Why the rank-drop chart you learned to read is now the wrong line to watch, and which line is right

    2. How Amazon's 150 fulfillment centers create regional pricing variation Keepa can't show you

    3. What the "Panic Window" is, why your repricer can't see it, and how it ends in the Prime Window

    4. Why the sweet spot most sellers walked past sits at 50 to 200 units a month, not the high-velocity targets the old content chased

    Each of the four shifts gets its own deep-dive episode in the coming weeks. This one is the map.

    Plus, the Plato's Allegory of the Cave moment that frames the whole shift, and a Wayne Dyer line that lands it.

    It's not the work. It's the playbook. Let's go test more ASINs.

    Special guest at the conclusion of today's show, Jeff Schick of JeffSchick.com answers the question: "If I don't have Jeff's team on retainer, can they still help me? (Answer: YES!) Use coupon code "MISTAKE" to get your first month of services for only $1 with Jeff and his team!

    May 11 2026

    Today we meet a father of two who has a background in ministry who is making his family's financial dreams come true via Amazon reselling. His healthy six figure per month business is primarily a "one man show" run out of his basement operating about 18% margins. He's never been more confident than he is now about the future prospects of the Amazon reselling model.

    We discuss what tools he uses, the challenges he's faced, how he sources products and his thoughts about the future of Amazon selling.

  • #1160: Why Would Anyone Pay $40 on Amazon for a $20 Walmart Item?
    May 7 2026

    Some of the smartest people Robin Joy coaches still can't pull the trigger. They're stuck in saver mode when the business needs them in builder mode.

    Brian and Robin Joy unpack the mindset shift that separates the sellers who get going from the ones who keep studying. Why customers happily pay more on Amazon. Why Brian wouldn't drive to Walmart to save money but goes all day to make money. And the math behind the catalog: out of 1.4 billion ASINs, the sweet spot is the 2.4 million selling 50 to 199 units a month. That's the corner big corporations can't be bothered with. That's where we live.

    The cure for analysis paralysis isn't more analysis. It's a shipment.

  • #1157: Pick your hard
    Apr 29 2026

    A coaching client messaged us this week ready to abandon his method. A few bad matches, a couple wrong orders, and a new surcharge from Amazon and suddenly the grass looks greener everywhere else. We've seen this movie before.

    In this episode, we do the math on Amazon's new 3.5% FBA surcharge, show you the free lever most sellers ignore, and talk about why the people who win this game aren't the ones who found the perfect strategy, they're the ones who stopped restarting the clock.
