What People Are Saying

FIVE STARS and worth every penny invested.
What an opportunity! A wealth of knowledge, all organized, taught, and presented with hands on practice all bundled in a few days. Rich and his crew are good at what they do and are eager to share their years of experience, so you don’t have to reinvent the wheel. They don’t hold back giving tips and tricks that have made their business so successful.
The vibe they share is calm and engaging in the classroom setting. They are patient and answer any questions you have. We were able to research and find good, money-making products with them walking us through the process. I was able to source approximately $750 in monthly profit with 24 new Replens in just a couple hours on Replens day. On the last day of the training I also got approved for a new wholesale account that looks very promising.
We watched and learned behind the scenes in their very own warehouse. We learned to package and label real products and box and ship efficiently. We were walked through tried systems and software. We were given a list of where to find the best quality, but least expensive supplies to maximize our profit.
FIVE STARS and worth every penny invested.

You are doing a great job presenting and leading this course...
Had to say that you have inspired me and my team. Thanks for all your efforts in the course. SmartScout is amazing and I'm only just doing the trial period so far...blows my mind. Thanks Rich Potter for bringing this training to the group. We have worked out that it has just deleted 70% off our current wholesale research processes we currently use to find suppliers. Scott N. is a genius

(After applying the strategy taught) I sent 3 emails to 2 distributors and a brand on Monday using the templates that Rich shared with us after modifying them. I heard back from BOTH distributors, which is great. I think the way Rich made the templates made me look very professional and they took my inquiries more seriously. Now I've been asked to help them with MAP and brand registry on Amazon!"

This training program is all-encompassing and filled in all the gaps...
My husband and I started our Amazon business about six months ago. We have done some online training and have been off to a good start. I am so grateful I was able to attend the Wholesale Hybrid in-person workshop.
This training program is all-encompassing and filled in all the gaps that I did not know existed in our business and processes. I now feel more empowered and ready to scale up our business. Being able to learn from experts in each aspect of the Amazon process has been invaluable. It was incredibly effective to see the complete process of running a successful Amazon business in person and in real-time. I find myself referring to what I learned and referencing the documents provided with the program daily.

About Rich & Shelly Potter
Rich & Shelly Potter
We've been married for almost 16 years and together Shelley and I have 3 beautiful daughters. I graduated from Arizona State University in 2007 with a degree in business and immediately started working for a distributor of electronic components as an inside sales executive and became very familiar with the distribution/wholesale model of doing business. In 2014 when my largest account was bought out by a company in India I was terrified that overnight I could lose 70% of my income to something I had no control over. We decided it was time to take back control and create additional sources of income. In the fall of 2014 Shelley and I started a photo booth rental company and then three months later added bubble soccer rentals to our event business. We still own and operate this event business today. We began selling on Amazon in 2015. In August of 2019, after 12 years in the corporate world I quit my job to go full time with our e-commerce and event businesses. I love working side by side with my wife and I love the freedom and challenges of working for myself. Our event and Amazon businesses have changed our lives in incredible ways. We very much believe in the multiple streams of income life that Jim Cockrum teaches and that selling online has helped us create and we are very excited to help you on your journey to become a successful online entrepreneur. To become more familiar with who we are, and our story please take some time to watch our podcast episodes with Jim Cockrum of Silent Sales Machine Radio at the following links.

Today I manage a team of 10 employees (5 full time and 4 part time and 1 Filipino VA) in a 4500 sq ft warehouse. We closed out 2020 at $2.6M in revenue on Amazon and eBay using the wholesale and Replenishable Arbitrage (Replens) methods of selling online that we will be covering in our coaching sessions. Our 2021 goal is $4.5M in the US and to get set up and launched selling on Amazon in the Canadian market.
