Podcast episode number 17 is now live on iTunes. In this podcast episode I interview Brian Leyde who in less than one year is pulling in over $100,000 in profit per month selling physical products on Amazon.com.

Update: March 2014 he hit over $500,000 in sales.

Brian’s success story is amazing and as he shows in this interview, the business model of selling physical products on Amazon has huge potential to scale.

If you’d like to sell physical products on Amazon and avoid all of the hassles and headaches of shipping out product, dealing with refunds etc you’ll love this episode.

Brian’s Amazon Seller Central Sales Stats

Brian teamed up with a business partner and together they have two seller accounts with Amazon so the screenshots are from their two accounts:

Boo yah those are some nice stats! Brian shares his profit margin during the podcast episode so be sure to listen for that as well.

April Video Proof Update: Some haters commenters didn’t want to believe the stats Brian shared so he recorded a video where you can see him logging into his account, the pages loading as he clicks links in Amazon Seller Central etc.

Obviously his results are extraordinary, but that’s the beauty of any scalable internet business model. There are no rules that say you can’t do this with a business you build, but at a job you can’t go up to your boss and ask for a raise of this magnitude.
