You did the work. You sourced it, prepped it, shipped it. So where's the money?
In this Coach's Corner, Brian and Robin Joy pull back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood phases of building an Amazon business: the quiet period. That stretch where your brain is screaming "nothing is working" but your pipeline is actually filling exactly like it should.
They break down the real timeline most new sellers experience versus the one they imagined, why your first shipment is basically the first pancake (nobody expects that one to be good), and what manufacturing concepts like cycle time and lead time have to do with your FBA results.
Plus, Robin Joy drops a James Clear ice cube analogy that might change how you think about quitting, and Brian explains why the sellers you admire at month nine aren't smarter or luckier. They just didn't turn off the heat at 31 degrees.
If you're in months one through four and wondering whether this thing actually works, this one's for you.
