This Episode, #12, deals with your Essential Daily actions to run and grow your Amazon FBA Business.

It is  part 10, the final part, of the “Amazing FBA Startup System”, which is a very highly structured series of podcasts (with very detailed show notes) designed to take you from zero to having a product launched and selling on Amazon.

If you haven’t already listened, you’ll want to at least listen to episode #11,  which deals with Product Launches .

Ideally, subscribe to listen to the whole Startup System, and start from episode #3 (episode #1 is a quick intro from me about the podcast, and episode #2 gives you the overview of the process I used to get to $20,000 in total sales in 7 months).
