In my first 6 months as an Amazon seller, I went from almost $300 in sales to over $200,000 in sales. And here's a little bit of my backstory on how I got there. So month one, you can see almost $300 in sales. Our net profit was actually negative. We ended the month negative almost $500, and that's because it took about $500 to start the business. Every bit of my expenses go into my net profit here. So this is my LLC cost, my supplies cost, printer cost, all of that. Everything went into this first month, so negative about $500, and that's okay, because it all contributes to these months to follow. Month two, we did almost $10,000 in sales. This is where I started to realize, man, there's something here. I'm still learning, my margins low, but I'm figuring it out. So with $10,000 in sales, we only profited about $500. But at this point, I was over break even, and I saw that, man, I just started a business and paid the debts off within one month of doing business. So I was happy, I was ready to put more hard work into the business, and that's what happened for month two. Or month three, sorry. We did a little over $11,000 in sales, but net profit was almost double the last month, because I was learning what products to buy, how to find better products with better margin. And that's why month two, or month three, sorry, we did almost double the net profit with just a little bit more sales. Month four, things are heating up. We're almost at $18, $19,000 in sales. Our net profit on that was $2,800, which is solid. This is when I realized, man, if I put a lot more time and effort and hard work into the business, this could be game changing. So let's see what we can do here. You know, let's see if we can really make this thing a full-time gig. And so fast forward to November, this is where you guys are going to be like, whoa. November, we did over 93, almost $94,000 in sales. Our net profit was $23,000, more than I've ever made in a single month in my life. And here's where I really was was almost flabbergasted at how amazing the opportunity of Amazon was. And one key catalyst for November of 2023 was I introduced outside capital to the business. So once I saw my numbers for October, I saw what I could make if I put more fuel on the fire. Then I introduced business capital, so I went to American Express, I got a Plum card, and I maxed that thing out on really good product, and that's what, you know, correlated to this month of over $90,000 in sales. December, here's where things get absolutely wild. I didn't realize the Q4 demand. I had heard all about it. I was starting to feel it in November, but December, we did over $200,000 in sales. Our net profit on that was $45,000, which almost blew my mind. I wasn't even, I was almost not able to fathom how much money I was able to generate in sales and profit for the month of December. Obviously, I wasn't paying myself. I didn't even have a warehouse at this point. I did all of this, almost all of it was merch fulfilled too out of my apartment, which is insane. I didn't send very much into FBA at that time, into Amazon fulfillment. And so doing over 200,000 with over 45,000 in net profit, that's where I'm like, okay, maybe I do this thing full-time. And so fast forward to the end of 2023, heading into 2024, I quit my day job, I put all my time, all my effort, and all my money into the business, and I've never looked back past that. So there's my 6 months, first 6 months as a seller. It's not typical. I wouldn't expect these results if you're new, but these are possible, 100%. I've seen guys actually outperform my first 6 months in their first 6 months. So you can do it. The possibility is there, the opportunity is there. It's just going to be difficult to make this happen exactly how I did, but it can happen. So, if you're just starting, have faith in yourself, be consistent, and know that what you put into the business, you will get out of the business. Have a great day, everyone. Follow me for more.
