TAS BONUS EPISODE INCOME REPORT – AUGUST 2015

Today’s episode is one of Scott’s “Bonus Episodes” covering his income through his Amazon Business for August of 2015.

These episodes are designed to be an encouragement to you, to show you that a real income can be provided through an Amazon sales business done the right way. That’s what The Amazing Seller podcast is all about and what Scott's emphasizing in this episode.

So grab a pencil and paper to take notes and listen in as Scott reveals the actual numbers of his business – expenses, profit, sales, everything. It’s one of the most open episodes you’ll hear. He’s going to open up not only with his numbers, but with the lessons he’s learned over the past month. You'll learn a ton if you pay attention to what Scott's got to say, especially his thinking behind some intentional price drops he did last month and the impact it's having on his sales.
