Running Successful Special Sales: How to make BIG TIME BUCKS on Christmas!

Posted on August 6, 2017 by admin

August is here and it’s time to check on your progress!

I know some of you did take action and I saw some submissions in the Critics section of Sells like hot cakes members area, so if you have not submitted there – I urge you to do it! “Critics” is a great way to get your progress reviewed by me and the community of experts which can give you valuable insights! If you are very secretive you can submit anonymously as well.

Tip of the month:

Christmas is coming soon! No joke! August is time to prepare and plan your big Christmas sales. Some products like funny mugs are very seasonal and can be sold only on Christmas, so if you plan to develop such product, it usually takes 2-3 months to get it done and take it to the market, now is the right time to start! Of course, I’ll also talk about Amazon FBA. For dropshipping, you don’t need to prepare a product, but what you need to do is prepare a section of your Shopify store to handle the sale or a special collection.

Don’t forget your Halloween special sales and Thanks giving as well!

Each special day generates awesome sales if you run a 2-3 day special.

Keep pushing and developing your products and you will succeed, I am sure! Don’t just read and learn but TAKE ACTION!

If you have any questions, let me know, I am always very responsive (I try to!)

P.S. If you enjoy the course please don’t forget to share it on Facebook and leave a review, it helps to spread the word. During the next few months, I plan to release more videos for you with real time examples of what we do!

Can I put my URL on my product package?

Claudia says at 21:15 et

Yes you can + inside your insert card too. You cant put links only in communication to the amazon customers via amazon email system.

Should i lower the price than competition? We all sell same things. Thanks for replies

Chris says at 21:24 et

The race to the bottom is a dangerous game. Instead of lowering price try to offer unique product, a bundle, a set, to stand out from competition. You lowering the price will just make other sellers lower their price as well, and now everybody is making less profit with no added benefit.

Ted says at 21:25 et

Think of doing a bundle or a set and RISE the price, not lower it

Hai, I am obsessed with online business. I have bought some e-commerce affiliate software, that is completed with with Youtube video review for every product I added. The e-commerce is linking to social media. It covered three affiliate : Amazon, Ebay, and Ali express. Organic traffic is about 8,000 visitors in 3 months, but ZERO affiliate hit. No sales. Then yesterday I saw this system. Here claimed can get usd 45,000/month if we follow all the guide. My question, if we just started with Shopify, and we follow the guide, is it possible to get that number? By some posting I read, the contribution is more come from FBA instead of Shopify. Nice to meet you all here.

Lane says at 01:25 et

Glad to have you here. There are many shops on shopify that are doing much more than 45k, it's a pretty modest number but after couple of years you should be doing much more than that. just take your time to learn!

Mike says at 02:34 et

Try Aweber.com , convertkit.com , getresponse, mailchimp or icontact. I used almost all of them, pretty easy, drag and drop email creation... Make sure to watch our video about Email Mastery as well ;)

I used the Amazon best seller finder for a keyword. All the results sound encouraging. But I am confused with one of the messages, "Reviews: top 10 sellers have average 3757 reviews (At least 2 of 10 have 50 reviews or less. Recommended <150 reviews average)"
Does this indicate it's worthwhile? It says 3757, and recommended is less than 150. I am unable to interpret as the other results are great. Please help(and explain what they mean)!

jo says at 02:03 et

It means they have many reviews probably so it's a very popular niche most likely. If the all other numbers sound good i would not be concerned. I think you mentioned you sell oils? so maybe instead of general oils try more specific like "facial oils" or "massage oils" or "lavanda oils" so it's more nichey

50.0000

Gautam says at 06:16 et

That's great.If the reviews are too less and the other numbers are right what's the course of action? Just curious.

Thank you for your suggestion on making the niche specific- very helpful!

Cheers.

Dont worry about reviews so much, it's becoming less important after last year Amazon's review policy update.

I am at Seller Summit in Miami guys! Great event it's going to be! All top amazon sellers gurus are here!

wade says at 21:14 et

Thats awesome - I hope you learn a lot of new tricks to share ;)

Super exciting news guys! I just came from the Sellers Summit conference in Miami, it’s the biggest Amazon seller conference in USA organized by Steve Chou

?I had a unique chance to see in person and to talk and listen to the industry leaders such as Greg Mercer (the creator of Jungle Scout), Scott Voelker (the creator of The amazing seller podcast) and of course Manuel Becvar, the creator of ImportDojo and Number 1 Best selling Amazon Course on Udemy.

I had also a chance to talk to Manuel after the session and even made a short video interview where he is going to share his secrets and insights on how to choose the right product and avoid getting scammed. Once I get back home from the trip, I will edit and release the video, really great stuff.
?
The conference was really amazing, a lot of great new strategies, tips and tricks on what is working RIGHT NOW on Amazon. However the biggest surprise for me was that most people have not started yet, they are stuck in the research phase and take too much time picking the product. That’s why I plan to release more videos with helpful tips and ideas on how to pick the right product, right from the start.

During the conference we had a great chance to talk to ex-amazon employees and see how it all works. The biggest thing you need to know is that Amazon is BOOMING right now and it is also cracking down on the shady sellers and scammers, that means you have a great timing to get started and take a piece of the 250 billion dollar industry! Don’t miss out and take action, the timing can’t be better!

Wait… You don’t have time to start ecommerce business? I heard that million times. Truth is, we all have same amount of time, it’s only about HOW you spend your time and what your priorities are. Setting your passive income should be the highest priority and will set you up for life. You don’t have to quit your job, just start it part time, in the evening, on the weekends and you will have a great passive income stream that will bring you money for years to come.

Today during the lunch break I talked to George, he started his coffee related business on Amazon just 7 months ago (on the side from his main job) but already making over $15,000 in sales every month. All is possible! He did not quit his job.. but he might soon

That’s why the best time to get started is right now!

Stay tuned for more videos and updates! And remember if you have any questions, let me know!

Mike

Choosing product from the start is a good one!!

Clay says at 16:29 et

How current is the information on the FBA fees and top sellers/total sales? I have another product that I am using and there is a big varience between the numbers.

50.0000

Mike says at 16:31 et

Its auto updating Clay. It will be alwayas a varience as there is no right or wrong way to calculate it, the real numbers only Amazon know.. What we or Jungle scout do is just approximation based on BSR to get an educated guess on sales

James says at 16:18 et

How do you know if the Traffic is Warm hot or cold? I want to launch an AD right away can i just start targeting my niche with different variations of ads right away as i am not looking for comments etc just sales. The FB ADS training is a little unclear.

50.0000

Mike says at 16:20 et

hi James. The traffic that never saw your brand is a cold one. Imagine you have a spokeperson that is doing all the selling in the video. So to warm up the traffic, people need to know more about him and get used to see him as a head of community, as expert in your niche, so they start to buy from him.

If you do "everything store" without a leading actor or a good story, then another approach can be used, for example contest giveaway, or buy 1 get 1 free, or flash sale or "free just pay for shipping gift" etc.

Aria says at 13:54 et

Cold = never heard of your brand or product
Warm = already saw you and needs further pushing to sale with retargeting!
