Hey, thanks for dropping by.
What is FBA ALLSTARS?
Well, if you found our little site, odds are you’re into Amazon. Whether you’re just starting private labeling or running a booming FBA business, FBA ALLSTARS is the place for you.
See, I started the site…
Wait, Who Am I?
Hi guys, my name’s Matt Ward and I am a physical products entrepreneur and FBA seller on a mission, a million-dollars-in-a-year exit mission. And that’s why I’ve started FBA ALLSTARS, to put myself out there, catalog my journey, meet and learn from top level Amazon businesses, and to help more founders find success with private labeling. Now, I consult and advise business and startups on all things growth, marketing and biz dev.
NOTE: Matt no longer runs/manages FBA ALLSTARS. For Matt’s latest projects, check out: The Disruptors podcast: a long-form TED on all things business, tech, ethics and society and mattward.io, Matt’s startup and marketing business blog. He also does some startup investing and advising at The Syndicate.
How’d I Get Here?
Before FBA I was big into crowdfunding. I built and managed Art of the Kickstart, a podcast and blog on all things crowdfunding and helped startups successfully launch (at heart I love entrepreneurship and empowering business owners).
But as an online entrepreneur, I heard plenty about FBA. And most of it sounded TOO good to be true – creating your own products, building scalable, saleable brands, Amazon fulfilling everything…Let’s just say it sounded interesting.
Well fast forward to a 6 week product development stint in China. It was too tempting to pass up…so I jumped. Suddenly samples were arriving daily, I was tearing through Amazing Seller podcast episodes (btw, check out Scott’s podcast) and I was up to ears in Amazon FBA.
Fast Forward to Today
As of writing this, I have one private label product up and running and off to the races and products two and three arriving in under a week. I’m scaling, growing aggressively and aiming big with my FBA brand. Things are progressing faster than I could have hoped and product four (playing with the big boys) is just now getting underway.
Why I’m Being So Public With My Goals?
As Amazon entrepreneurs, business can be easy. Once a private label product is up and running, the maintenance and effort are almost entirely outsourced. And that is GREAT. It makes Amazon arguably the most passive, scalable business model in history.
But…
Easy and passive breed complacency. And I believe pushing yourself is the ONLY way to grow. So guess what, I’m pushing. I’m pushing hard to make my goals happen and pushing you to be honest and upfront about YOURS.
“Set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there.” – Bo Jackson
Why Start a Podcast?
Podcasts have changed my life.
I was an engineer stuck with the prospect of a shit corporate job I hated for the next 40 years. Podcasts opened my eyes. I owe them my freedom, I owe them EVERYTHING.
From TropicalMBA and Miexergy in the early days learning and understanding entrepreneurship to more recently The Amazing Seller and Freedom Fastlane (both of which helped me with Amazon).
And to be honest the Amazon space was a little lacking, at least it was for me. Scott Voelker has an incredible show but outside of that, as Amazon sellers we’re stuck – compromise on poor quality or pay like $6000 to make their business a MACHINE 🙂
I wanted more information, I wanted more strategies, I wanted to meet the elite Amazon entrepreneurs – every advantage possible to help myself and other FBA sellers succeed. This is FBA ALLSTARS, a commitment to success and CRUSHING your goals on Amazon and beyond.
I hope you’ll join me on my little adventure and destroy goals in the process!
Cheers,
