“Last year, we did over a million dollars and we’re still growing.”

– Ari and Chelsea Cohen, USA

When Ari and Chelsea Cohen were looking to leave their day jobs behind, they started with multi-level marketing.


They got involved with a few companies, but nothing really took off. When they tried to involve some other people in their organization, the couple kept hearing from people who were too busy selling on Amazon to take on a new project.

So, they looked into it.

Within seven weeks of taking their first Amazon selling course, they were making sales. Within 30 days of their first sale, they were making $10,000 in gross revenue.

From there, it only went up.





“Amazon is the best opportunity to make a lot of money to completely change your situation for not that much investment. $10,000? That’s nothing compared to what people are sinking into brick and mortar businesses.”

– Chelsea Cohen, USA




They quit their jobs and moved from Los Angeles to Austin, TX.

Flash forward and they’re anticipating $1.5M in sales for this year. And, they’re collaborating with other Amazon sellers to teach workshops and share best practices.

On top of that, they spend time travelling the world.

Soon, they’ll be taking their first trip to China where they’ll be meeting their suppliers and seeking out new product ideas in the world’s manufacturing hub.

For this duo, Amazon is a launchpad. They have plans to break out into other passive income ventures – like AirBnb and real estate.

Amazon was the scalable opportunity they needed to kickstart their eCommerce careers.
