Entrepreneurial spirit is something that seems to be innate in some people, while others don't have it. Not everyone is called to lead either and that's okay! We need all types of people to run effective businesses. That's something our guest Nathan Hirsch, lifelong entrepreneur and owner of several companies including EcomBalance, knows a ton about. Nathan shares his early experiences in entrepreneurship selling books on Amazon and how that's lead to owning and growing multiple companies today. Even though he isn't a bookkeeper, Nathan understands the importance of keeping clean books. Brands often sell on multiple channels so not knowing which one is driving the most profitability can come back to bite you. That's where immaculate financial statements come into play.

Here, we break down the key takeaways from their conversation, offering actionable advice and thorough explanations to help you navigate the complex world of SEO.Steven introduces TrioSEO, an agency that primarily serves B2B and SaaS founders.

Steven underscores the importance of an ROI-focused SEO content strategy that prioritizes meaningful traffic over mere numbers. As 2024 approaches, the SEO landscape is rapidly evolving.

Before Cartology, Michael was the President of Matters of the Cart, a multi-channel enterprise that eventually evolved into Cartology. Additionally, Michael hosts The Longer Game podcast, where he discusses the future of retail. In this episode… Amazon entrepreneurs' success stories can inspire many people to start their own e-commerce store. However, it's crucial to understand the challenges that online sellers face. What are some strategies that e-business owners can implement to avoid certain obstacles? Customer reviews can make or break a business. For Amazon seller Michael Maher, he quickly learned not to take the reviews personally. Instead, he leveraged the feedback as opportunities to improve his products. During these pivotal moments, it's wise to meet with manufacturers to discuss how they can rectify issues. Michael also advises avoiding attachments to products, as attaining growth and scalability on Amazon heavily depends on new inventory. If a product performs poorly, don't hesitate to discontinue the ASIN.  In this episode of the eComm Breakthrough Podcast, Josh Hadley chats with Michael Maher, Owner of Cartology, about strategies to implement to scale a business. Michael shares the lessons he learned as a novice Amazon seller, how to leverage customer feedback, and how temporary setbacks inspired him to share his knowledge.

Nathan Hirsch is the Co-founder of EcomBalance, a monthly bookkeeping service helping e-commerce businesses manage their bookkeeping and finances. Nathan began his entrepreneurial journey in 2009 by selling products on Amazon and is best known for his involvement in co-founding Freeeup in 2015. With an initial investment of $5,000, Nathan helped scale the business to $12 million in yearly revenue before selling it in 2019. Nathan is also the Co-founder of AccountsBalance, EcomBalance's partner company, and the Co-founder of Outsource School, where he teaches business owners proven hiring methods for finding top-tier virtual assistants. In this episode… Finances are the driving force behind any company and indicate operational strengths and weaknesses. Most e-commerce business owners are ill-equipped to read and decipher financial statements, yet they shoulder bookkeeping responsibilities. Taking ownership of financials without accounting knowledge is a risk most entrepreneurs can't afford. Although hiring a bookkeeper is an additional monthly payment, business owners are relieved from the stress of balancing accounts. Bookkeeping requires understanding accounting principles and allocating time to read and record accurate financial details. Most e-commerce executives can't commit to recording expenditures amidst their leadership responsibilities. Nathan Hirsch testifies business owners who take financial responsibility are likely to spend more money fixing their mistakes than if they had hired a professional. He implores entrepreneurs to hire a bookkeeper, and, at the very least, review income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow monthly to recognize company trends.  On this episode of the Up Arrow Podcast, William Harris welcomes Nathan Hirsch, Co-founder of EcomBalance, to discuss the pertinence of accurate bookkeeping for e-commerce businesses. Nathan shares common mistakes business owners make when balancing their books, how segmenting books can accelerate business growth, and the three financial reports owners must compare monthly. He also provides resources for hiring vetted CPAs and CFOs to transcribe budget data.

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today's episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Naveen Jain, Russell Brunson, Mastip Kipp, Nathan Hirsch, Stephen Somers, Evan Carmichael and Clay Gardener and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about how to be a very successful entrepreneur.   (2:16) Naveen Jain There are three kinds of people. People who think of a problem, people who complain about a problem and people who think of how to solve a problem. These people are visionaries. Instead of wallowing in the problem, they come up with solutions to counter the problem. These people are known as entrepreneurs. So if you want to be a good entrepreneur, make sure you go out and find problems and look for ways to solve them.   (7:30) Russell Brunson When you try to sell to somebody you don't just walk to somebody and try to sell it to them point blank. First you need to find out what is the false belief they have about what you are selling and you need to note it down. Most people accumulate false information from peers and family members. They may have been told wrongly or have been warned. So your job is to overcome that false belief they already have within them and make sure your story checks out. Then your sale will be successful.   (11:35) Mastin Kipp Focus on service. It is the most important thing. When you focus on servicing people, you will step into what is called effortless survival. You don't have to worry about the bills being paid. You will be taken care of, if you take care of others.  And lastly dedicate your life, your mission, your business to something larger than yourself and focus on adding value to people who are further down the road than you are and when you are mission driven, people will resonate with that.    (15:38) Nathan Hirsch Listen to feedback from the people that are actually buying your stuff. Make sure you ask questions like, “What do you like? What do you hate? What issues are you running into?” And never be scared to receive bad feedback and to change things or tweak things. Through these you get to evolve each year and always make sure you try to make it better based on all the feedback you're getting.   (19:46) Stephen Somers There are tons of marketing strategies out there or business ideas. Sometimes you just need to learn how to follow these or listen to them. Most of these ideas come from people who have already been down the line further than you and you know that they are experts in their field. Another thing you can do that is very effective when you have a business is to identify who you are serving and cater to their biggest problems. Your business will grow a lot when you can implement this.   (24:00) Evan Carmichael Lack of belief is the biggest problem in the world. Everybody has an important core value and once you figure that out, you get more clarity on how to live your life and what projects to take on. Try to see the world through the lens of belief. You could be the greatest in the world at something but if you don't believe in it, you won't chase it down. Meanwhile dummies are winning off of your idea just because they started and believed in themselves.    (29:10) Clay Gardener The equalizer across humanity is time. Companies and entrepreneurs are able to move faster and faster because we're all standing on the shoulders of giants. It used to take five years to build a company. Now it could take five months or even five weeks. There's just so much more information out there. Do not focus on getting everything perfect. No one cares. Throw stuff out there, see what sticks, talk to customers,do surveys, and don't be afraid to fail.   Links: @naveenjainceo @russellbrunson @mastinkipp @realnatehirsch  @stephenjsomers @evancarmichael  @claygrdnr

Welcome back to Making Bank. On today's episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Naveen Jain, Russell Brunson, Mastip Kipp, Nathan Hirsch, Stephen Somers, Evan Carmichael and Clay Gardener and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about how to be a very successful entrepreneur.   (2:16) Naveen Jain There are three kinds of people. People who think of a problem, people who complain about a problem and people who think of how to solve a problem. These people are visionaries. Instead of wallowing in the problem, they come up with solutions to counter the problem. These people are known as entrepreneurs. So if you want to be a good entrepreneur, make sure you go out and find problems and look for ways to solve them.   (7:30) Russell Brunson When you try to sell to somebody you don't just walk to somebody and try to sell it to them point blank. First you need to find out what is the false belief they have about what you are selling and you need to note it down. Most people accumulate false information from peers and family members. They may have been told wrongly or have been warned. So your job is to overcome that false belief they already have within them and make sure your story checks out. Then your sale will be successful.   (11:35) Mastin Kipp Focus on service. It is the most important thing. When you focus on servicing people, you will step into what is called effortless survival. You don't have to worry about the bills being paid. You will be taken care of, if you take care of others.  And lastly dedicate your life, your mission, your business to something larger than yourself and focus on adding value to people who are further down the road than you are and when you are mission driven, people will resonate with that.    (15:38) Nathan Hirsch Listen to feedback from the people that are actually buying your stuff. Make sure you ask questions like, “What do you like? What do you hate? What issues are you running into?” And never be scared to receive bad feedback and to change things or tweak things. Through these you get to evolve each year and always make sure you try to make it better based on all the feedback you're getting.   (19:46) Stephen Somers There are tons of marketing strategies out there or business ideas. Sometimes you just need to learn how to follow these or listen to them. Most of these ideas come from people who have already been down the line further than you and you know that they are experts in their field. Another thing you can do that is very effective when you have a business is to identify who you are serving and cater to their biggest problems. Your business will grow a lot when you can implement this.   (24:00) Evan Carmichael Lack of belief is the biggest problem in the world. Everybody has an important core value and once you figure that out, you get more clarity on how to live your life and what projects to take on. Try to see the world through the lens of belief. You could be the greatest in the world at something but if you don't believe in it, you won't chase it down. Meanwhile dummies are winning off of your idea just because they started and believed in themselves.    (29:10) Clay Gardener The equalizer across humanity is time.

Key points covered in this episode: [00:00:00] Introduction [00:05:04] A good affiliate program is the foundation of organic marketing. Have a clear online page for referrals and mention it in every business call. Partner with other e-commerce sellers. Make it easy for affiliates to do referrals by having all your copy, links, and other assets ready to go. [00:13:22] Know the three types of people you can hire. Your virtual assistants can be followers, doers, or experts. Each has its own capabilities and limitations you can utilize to scale your business. Be sure to train your talent to become future leaders so the business can run even without you! [00:19:53] When hiring, look for CARE: communication, attitude, red flags, and experience. Save time in looking for the right fit and set expectations early on. [00:25:07] Content like podcasts are great for SEO and networking. Have your employees do the research and outreach for podcasters who align with what you do. Publish keyword-rich blogs and encourage customers to leave authentic reviews. [00:29:18] Consistency is key. Rejection is part of the process. Don't let it get you down – just keep on going! Provide a minimum viable product to your customers to see what works and what doesn't, and tweak your offers along the way.
