Hey! Welcome to The Nine University Newsletter. We are going to send this out 5x a week to subscribers, we pray you will love it.
This letter is EXACTLY like selling on Amazon.
It’s SO similar, in fact, that I thought I should dedicate this first letter to explaining it.
Here we go.
A) Differentiation is Everything.
When I started selling on Amazon many years ago, the advice was all the same.
“Just put up something that’s already selling well, and hurry!”
That advice doesn’t work any more.
The only way to succeed at selling on Amazon is to offer something uniquely valuable to your customer.
To differentiate it.
It can be little things, like offering a size or a color that no one else has thought of yet.
The same is true for this letter.
The Nine University Newsletter will strive to be different in these key ways from other sources of information you have access to.
1) It won’t be boring. It may even be hilarious.
2) It won’t be super complicated. It will simply be practical.
3) We won’t waste time trying to sell you stuff. We will just tell you how it is.
B) Know Your Numbers
With Amazon, you can’t go in blind.
You can’t just “Throw a product up” and expect it to make money.
At Nine U, we teach our students to look for
$5,000+ per month in revenue for 7 out of the top 10 products for a given keyword
Less than 75 reviews for 7 out of the top 10 products for a given keyword
A potential 200% ROI on the product including Amazon fees
For this newsletter, here are the numbers WE KNOW.
Between existing and new sellers on Amazon, there are approximately 8 to 10 MILLION people interested in selling on Amazon, PER YEAR. (conservatively).
The only way we will reach those people is if we are able to convince YOU to share this letter to them so they can be helped as well.
The only way to convince you to do that is to actually provide you VALUE day in and day out.
C) Think long term, or just quit now.
Amazon FBA has never been, and never will be, a “get rich quick scheme”.
For the record, get rich quick schemes don’t really exist unless you are selling something illegal… :)
Taylor and I RE-INVESTED every single penny we ever made in Amazon for 9 WHOLE MONTHS until I was able to quit my job and work on it full time.
That was not easy, particularly when we were generating $80,000+ per month.
But long term thinking drove us.
We wanted it to be a HUGE business, not a small business that would benefit us now.
The same is true for this newsletter.
We did not get into this lightly. If you choose to subscribe, we “Owe” you 5 letters per week, indefinitely. That’s a lot of work to sign up for.
We understand that charging whatever we will eventually charge for this letter will not make us rich. The only way for it to have ANY impact is to have YOU share it with your friends.
I could keep going, but that would be violating a few of the “rules” of this letter.
Here are those rules so you know what you’re getting into.
Don’t write boring stuff that is too long. People are busy. Short and sweet.
Each letter should deliver a month’s worth of value.
Each letter will have a high quality PODCAST version available at the top for people who like to LISTEN.
Each letter will not talk about B.S. concepts that haven’t been actually tested or proven.
Each letter will not waste your time reading or listening to anything that can not be practically applied to your life.
Boom. That’s it. Welcome to the letter.
We are going to do everything in our power to enrich your life with it.
Let’s do this.
Kale, Taylor, and the Team at Nine University.
