My name is Nico.

I flew one-way to Thailand a few years ago. I went broke.

 

Today, I run an Amazon FBA (Fulfillment-by-Amazon) business. The team and I sell $300,000/year on Amazon.com and we’re scaling up to $1,000,000.

 

I run a partnership program (like an apprenticeship) where you learn e-commerce while helping me launch new products in my business.

 

There is no fee or price or investment, and you’re hired! (Maybe)

 

The “Launch Your First Product” Partnership

 

I will teach you how to run a profitable, location independent e-commerce business. You are paid to learn without risking your own money.

 

Let’s break that down…

 

1. “I will teach you” – My business is based on the Amazon FBA business model. As we work together in my business we’ll discuss the steps, processes, business SOPs, and strategies I use to sell products on Amazon. Within 12-18 months you will know enough to confidently launch your own online business.

2. “Location independent e-commerce business” – You will learn to run an online business that you can manage from your home, the local café, or a foreign country. You will sell high-quality products to real customers across the USA, all from your laptop.

3. “Paid to learn” – You will earn residual income, 3% of revenue of the products we sell together.

4. “Without risking your own money” – This is not a ‘business course’ and there is no up-front fee. You do not need to save money to buy inventory and I may be your first investor when you launch your own business.

 

Here’s what you’ll actually do every day…

 

1. Marketing – Copywriting, product images, keywords, advertising, everything you need to sell products on Amazon.

2. Manufacturing Partnerships – Find factories to help us create our products.

3. Niche Discovery – Find highly profitable niches and products nobody has thought of before.

4. Everything Else – Shipping logistics, inventory management, customer service, team management, fixing common problems… and everything else.

 

After working together, you’ll have built and operated a profitable and scalable online business selling products on Amazon.com.

” Working with Nico is an amazing learning experience. Nico is smart and talented, and his results’ speak for themselves.

He’s documented every single step, so there’s no guesswork involved and you can look up anything you need. He really helps you learn and get skilled, and you get a feeling he genuinely wants you to become amazing and outdo yourself.

Business never felt so friendly before. Nico took a genuine interest in helping me out and was amazingly patient with me. We speak much more than just once a week and I always have fun – he’s got a ton of amazing stories to tell from all of his travels!

Best of all, we’re making real money! We’ve launched 8 different products together and now I’m selling $1000/day! “

If you are a good fit for this part time remote position, you will have these qualities…

 

1. You hustle. While striving to work smarter and not harder, you’re prepared for intensely-focused work and a few late nights.

2. You stay positive when setbacks occur and keep the big picture in mind.

3. You enthusiastically take on responsibilities with consequences.

4. You want to own your own business, not work for one.

5. You’re comfortable with online communication. We’ll communicate regularly through 1-on-1 video call and chat services like Skype, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, and email. Most documents are stored in Google Drive.

6. You can commit at least 10 hours per week. This is part-time work, and you can work on your own schedule anywhere you have Wifi, but this time commitment is necessary for you to learn and begin selling products quickly.

7. You don’t need ‘Get Rich Quick’ money today. (Percent-of-revenue after a successful product launch is NOT quick money.)

 

You will run multiple successful product launches within 12-18 months. These will generate real profits for the company and residual income for you as long as products continue selling.

 

(I’ll share my business details and the products I’m selling with serious applicants. Most Amazon sellers don’t share their products publicly.)

 

If you want to discuss the partnership, book a time with Calendly or send me a message and we’ll hop on a call. (Tell me where you’re located and about any e-commerce experience you have.)
