Hey everyone, my name is Christian Cabatay and I was in Anthony's Cohort 2 in this 12 week mentorship program. Heres what happened... I want to be real with y'all for a second before I get into the numbers. I started this cohort with barely any capital. Like, genuinely tight. No big bankroll, no safety net, no "I'll just buy more inventory if it doesn't work" backup plan. Just me, a small amount of money I could not afford to lose, and a decision that I was going to make it work anyway. And I did. There's a quote I live by, one that got me through every uncomfortable, unfamiliar part of this process: "It's not hard, it's just new." Every time something felt overwhelming, I reminded myself of that. It wasn't that the work was too hard for me, it was just that I hadn't done it before yet. Anthony's 12 week cohort was honestly one of the best decisions I've made. Twelve weeks sounds long when you're in week 1, but I promise you it flies by, and the craziest part is the value doesn't stop when the cohort ends. The videos he gives you aren't just "watch once and forget," they're the kind of thing you're going to be pulling up months from now when you hit a wall and need to remind yourself how to work through it. I already know I'll be rewatching these long after cohort 2 is done. And Anthony himself, the man is always there. Always responding, always willing to help you figure out what's going wrong. But here's the thing nobody tells you going in: he can only help you as much as you help yourself. He'll show you the way, but you still have to put in the work, ask the right questions, and actually apply what he teaches. This isn't a sit back and get rich program. It's a show up and get coached program. Huge difference. Now let's talk numbers, because this is the part I'm most proud of. My first ever sale landed on May 5th. From there, it's been a straight climb. May 1 to July 11th: Sales: C$5,686.58 Orders Units: 151 / 155 Refunds: 7 Ad spend: C$0.00, (every bit of this was organic)

May Numbers : - Sales: $7,596.50 - Orders: 157 - Units: 160 - Gross profit: $940.24 - Indirect expenses (prep + software subscriptions): $390.25 - Net profit: $549 - Net margin: 7.24% - Refunds: 11 (6.88% refund rate) - Cash spent on inventory: $3,941.78 Last month I set a simple goal: have my first profitable month in May. Hitting that milestone feels really good, especially because it’s my first month fully on my own after finishing the mentorship cohort with @Anthony Mancini . The anxiety was definitely there, but the work I put in during those three months paid off. The buying decisions I made in April have started to show up this month in May. From a performance standpoint, I actually slowed my spending a bit this month. Life has been life-ing. Between my carpentry job and my commercial cleaning business, I’ve been working 60–70 hours a week, and that has definitely affected how much I can source. Even with that, I still managed to put in around 10–15 hours a week into sourcing. Some days just 1–2 hours, some days 4–5, and some days nothing because I was burnt out to be honest. One thing that’s becoming clear: if I want this to keep growing, I’ll need help. The goal is to get the business consistently profitable enough that it can pay for a VA to source while I’m at my day job or working my cleaning contracts. Realistically, a VA won’t be fully paying for themselves for the first month or two while they train and learn the software and techniques. If I can bring someone on in July or August, that should put me in a strong position heading into Q4. For June, my focus is to ramp up sourcing again and increase my spend, but be much more selective with what I buy. I want to push my net margins to at least 10% after all expenses. The last four months have shown me that this business really is learnable if you’re willing to put in the hours, make mistakes early, and keep refining your process. The first profitable month is a milestone, not the finish line but it’s a big one.

Hello, I’m trying to better understand IP flags on Seller AMP, especially when there are already existing FBA sellers (up to 6) on the listings but no brand product page or clear brand presence yet. Should I completely avoid leads that show IP concerns or is there specific data I should review before deciding?

What's up everyone We're doing our FIRST offical livestream in this community. Sunday March 22nd at 5pm EST Here's what's going down: - Live sourcing (you'll see exactly how I find products in real time) - Live Q&A (bring your questions) - A special announcement 👀 You can watch it on my YouTube or right here in Skool. Drop a 🔥 if you're pulling up. See you there 🫡
