Amazon doesn't allow you to track conversions like when you got a sale from an outside traffic source so it is a little bit harder and they don't allow you to do remarketing except for if you're a big seller and you're using their tools. So Amazon, the only way we do that is like we drive traffic from the videos out on social media about key products. We do like Facebook video view ads and we send them in but we can't really track and measure. We can just see that if we turn that off, their sales go down and the social buzz goes down and that kind of stuff.

Welcome back. This is Ash Roy. I'm the founder of productiveinsights.com and the host of the productive insights podcast. And I'm delighted to have Greg Cassar back on the podcast from Rainmakerpartner.io. Now, Greg recently was on the podcast and he talked about some high level strategies around building a successful online business and we talked through the various kinds of business models, starting with a local business where you're trading your time for money and then a more services based business where it's a little bit higher end. Then we talked about having an information product business, which was a bit further up the line way. You're not trading time for money as much and it's a bit more leveraged. And then we talk about Amazon and SAS being at the top of that succession where you build something that is more of an asset and something that tends to generate income more on automatic.

In this episode, Greg and I are gonna dig a bit deeper into the tactical aspects of building an Amazon based eCommerce business that will enable you to create a lifestyle that Greg currently enjoys, which means that he is free by 9:00 AM every morning from all his commitments that generate his income. And he is pretty much free to do whatever he wants to do with his time after that. So I'm sure all of us would like to establish that lifestyle. Uh, it isn't something that's gonna happen overnight. I'm not gonna lie to you. This is not one of these get rich quick schemes. It takes a long time to do it. It took Greg about 15 years and I suspect it would take most of us around that long. That said, Greg has worked with some of the smartest people online, including people like Ryan Deiss, Ezra Firestone, and many others, several of whom have been guests on this podcast. And so I'm delighted to have Greg back on once again from Rainmakerpartner.io. Welcome back, Greg.
