This is a copy of a response I posted to a girl in my SKOOL community when she asked about a recent successful product launches on Amazon.
I hope you get some value from it:

Hi there. I'm sorry this response is so late.
I've been working on a response to you for a while, so it is helpful.
I will assume that this is your first venture into the business world. If I'm wrong, I apologize, but my response is geared toward that assumption.
I've been selling on Amazon for 12 years. I sold my primary company last year, which took us 12 years to build. It took me about seven years to get to $5K/mo. because I didn't really have much of a guide to show me what to do. At the end of that 12 years, we were doing $500K/year in sales. It took us 12 years to get to that point.
This time, I'm doing it Tim's way, and within two weeks, we're already on pace to have a $6,000 first month. Keep in mind that it took me seven years when I didn't do it Tim's way.
I do have a lot of experience with Amazon, but I would probably have been able to get up to speed (through Tim's program) in three months, whereas before, it took me years.
Long story short, I think you've made a good decision…if you actually do the stuff he teaches.
If you don't, then it was a waste.
The issue isn't the program. The program doesn't make you successful. It accelerates what you already could do on your own…if you follow the program and don't try to get creative.
I've spent SOOOO much money on programs and groups over the years and started SOOO many businesses. I'll give you the big lesson I learned from all of that:
"Any of them would have worked if I'd simply taken imperfect action and not gotten distracted."
My first venture selling ukuleles online would have worked if I'd stuck with it. Affiliate marketing, software, real estate, etc., would also have worked if I'd stopped second-guessing myself, done the work, and become an expert.
A lot of my problems were caused by my desire to ensure that I was doing it correctly. So, I'd spend a lot of time researching and learning skills so that I could launch and do great.
During that time, I'd lose steam, get overwhelmed, and find something else that looked easier and more promising…only to repeat that process repeatedly. I did this for years.
Unfortunately, for me at least, this was a lesson I chose to learn on my own. I watched hundreds of teachers and other business people tell me this same thing over the years…but I didn't listen for whatever reason and kept jumping around.
Here are some other lessons I've learned (through experience, unfortunately…I should have listened:)
This is already too long, and I hope it's helpful. If it's not, just forget all of this.
I hope all's well and that you find every success.
