Jayroykyle would NOT be Roy and Kyle fighting over Jason, it would be Jason and Kyle fighting over Roy. Not even just because Roy has the best dick or whatever (although he does), Jason and Kyle would fight over anything. They'd fight over a paperclip. They fight over who gets to keep Roy's discarded arrows even though both of them don't really want them. They fight over who gets to shower first in the morning. They WILL take any excuse to bite each other. They fight over Roy but Roy is not the damsel in the middle of a love triangle, he is the handler of two spicy dogs who keep trying to bite each others dicks off.

So Live A Lie, Just Tonight, And Burn Out Bright
Batsis x Hal Jordan One-Shot
Word Count: 3.8K Warnings: Explicit Language, Mature Themes
Author's Note: I decided to compile that one Batsis "story" into one doc, and I added the alternate ending for the one anon who asked! Enjoy! -Thorne
**********************************************************************
“Alright, easy sis, easy,” he worried, watching her carefully for signs of pain flickering across her face as he helped her off the bike.
She scowled, managing to drag her injured leg forward. “Quit nagging. I’m—ngh—fine.”
“You’re on emergency oxycodone and you’ve got a broken femur,” he retorted. “I’m nagging until you’re in surgery.”
“Ugh, stop reminding me.”
Someone hauled her off her feet with a quiet, “I’ve got you.”
She grunted in pain laying on the gurney. “Thanks, dad.”
“Miss Wayne, are you alright?”
Her eyes found Alfred’s. “I’m good. I just ne—motherfucker!” she yelped, glaring at her father who was squeezing her thigh. “Hey! That’s broken, jackass! Quit!”
Bruce grunted. “You need an ORIF now.”
A pinch in her arm made her twitch and she turned her attention to Alfred who was uncapping a needle. “Alfred, what’s that?”
He shook his head. “Nothing to worry about, Miss Wayne.” Smiling, he stuck the needle into the line. “You’ll feel better when you awaken.”
Her vision blurred rapidly, “Gonna take…a nap…now…” her head lolled, and Bruce met Alfred’s gaze.
“Call Damian. He’s got the steady hand we’ll need.”
***
“How’re you feeling?” Jason asked, setting a cup of juice on the bedside table.
She blinked slowly, staring at her fingers. “Why are my fingers like this?”
“Like what, Queenie?”
“Bendy,” she replied, flexing her fingers. “It’s fuckin’ weird.” She looked at him. “I feel weird.”
He snorted, nodding at Dick and the others who were walking in at the sound of her voice. “You’re on hydromorphone, sis.”
“Hydro—what-what?”
“Hydromorphone, sister,” Damian said. “It has increased your threshold for pain and reduced the perception of it.”
She stared at him like she hadn’t heard a word come out of his mouth. “I didn’t understand a single goddamn word that you just said.”
Snickers sounded around her, but her head was up in the clouds and she rested back against her pillow. Her family gathered around her, sitting up on the bed, and suddenly she cocked her head up, squinting at each of them.
“Sweetheart? What’s wrong?” Bruce inquired.
“Where’s Dick?”
“I’m right here, sis,” he answered, pressing a kiss to the back of her hand. “What’s up?”
“Why’d you break up with Kori?”
His eyes widened. “I—what?”
“Kori. Tall alien with the shooty-hands.”
“I know who she is. What about our breakup?”
“Are you kidding me? That woman is spectacular, and you broke up with her. She’s gorgeous, wicked intelligent, fantastic in bed and—”
“Wait, back up there,” he interrupted. “Good in bed? Did you sleep with, Kori?”
“Oh yeah, totally. I was her rebound after you.”
Dick blinked while the others cackled. “Have you…have you slept with any other exes?”
“Of yours? Or in general with the family’s exes?”
“Wait,” Jason said. “Have you slept with any of mine?”
“Did you date Artemis?”
He shrugged. “Sort of?”
“Then, yes.” She looked at Bruce. “I slept with Selina too, but to be completely honest we were both drunk and I don’t think either of us remember.”
“I uh—” he started, then quieted. “I didn’t know you were gay, sweetheart.”
She let out a ‘pfft’. “I’m not.”
“Oh, you’re bi, then?” Dick smiled and she shook her head.
“Nah, I like the wine but not the label.” She grinned. “I’m a lover of people.”
“How many superheroes have you slept with?” Tim questioned and she pursed her lips.
“Uh…I dunno…kinda lost count.”
For a moment no one said a word, then Jason asked, “You know how we call Dickhead the fuck-boy? Can we refer to you as that now? I think you’ve topped his count.”
Her eyes narrowed into a glare and she pointed at him, though she was seeing double, so it was entirely possible that she was pointing at the wall. “Keep that up and I’ll sleep with your best friend again.”
“You slept with Roy?!”
“I was talking about Kyle, but Roy works too.”
“OH MY GOD! IS THERE ANYONE YOU HAVEN’T SLEPT WITH?”
She thought for a moment, then offered, “Diana. But I asked her out last weekend so it’s up in the air until our date.”
***Part Two***
There was only one rule that everyone collectively followed in Wayne Manor and that was: no excessive noise until after twelve P.M. It was mostly influenced by Alfred who’d more than once pulled out the shotgun but surprisingly, mornings were usually calm and quiet. Keywords: “Were” and “Usually”. There were some special cases.
An ear-splitting scream shattered the silence of the breakfast room and in an instant, everyone was jumping from the table, sprinting towards the staircase to find out what was quite possibly murdering their eldest sister. As they neared the staircase, they came face to face with her as she stood behind the banister, her hands gripping the railing until her knuckles started whitening.
“Sis, what’s wrong?” Dick worried, already starting to come up the steps, Jason and Tim close behind.
“I’m late,” she whispered, and they leaned forward.
“What was that?” Bruce inquired, brows furrowing, and she looked at him.
“I’m late.” Her voice was firmer this time.
He blinked. “How long?”
“Two months.”
“Wait, what’s going on?” Jason questioned, shaking his head and she scowled.
“My period’s late, jackass.”
She wished she’d taken a photo of their faces, because nothing would ever amuse her as much as the way their jaws went slack, eyes widening in total shock. Running a hand down her face, she groaned, “Oh my God. I knew something was up. I completely forgot about it.”
“Sooooo…” Tim drawled out with a recovered grin. “Who’s the daddy?”
Her eyes narrowed and she shot him a glare. “Shut. Up.”
“C’mon sis, someone—some guy did it for you.” Jason quipped. “Who’s the lucky man?” he paused, seeming to remember something. “How many superheroes have you slept with in two months? That have dicks, of course.” She clenched her jaw and his eyes widened. “Oh no. Oh no…is it, Roy?”
“It’s not Roy!” she hissed.
“Kyle?” Dick offered and she shook her head.
“No. I’ve only slept with one guy in the past two months.”
“Who was it sister?” Damian quizzed, placing his hands on his hips. “I have yet to meet anyone acceptable for you to populate with.”
“Thanks Damian,” she griped, then groaned. “Oh God, I know who it is too. And I wish I didn’t.”
“Why’s that?”
Her eyes found Tim’s. “Because we were drunk as hell after a League mission.”
“Who is it?” Bruce grunted and she met his gaze.
“You’re not going to like it.”
Something passed between them, and his eyes narrowed. “Please don’t say that’s who you slept with.”
She nodded, pressing a hand to her face, hiding her embarrassment. “Mhm.”
“You slept with him?”
“Unfortunately.”
Jason looked between his sister and father. “Wait, I’m confused. What’s going on?” A snort sounded beside him, and he looked over, seeing Dick in tears. “Why are you crying? What’s so funny?”
Dick cackled. “SHE SLEPT WITH HAL JORDAN!”
Another round of slack jawed brothers appeared in her sight, and she hissed. “It was an accident!”
“YOU’RE HAVING A BABY WITH HAL JORDAN!” Dick gasped, starting to drop to his knees from laughing so hard. “OH MY GOD, YOU SLEPT WITH THE GUY DAD HATES THE MOST!”
“You slept with Hal Jordan?” Tim gagged. “Ew.”
“Sister, I am disgusted in your choice of partners for children.” Damian noted and she scowled.
“I hate all of you.” she looked at Bruce.
He sighed heavily, a defeated father…or maybe a defeated grandfather. “I’ll go call Hal…and order prenatal vitamins.”
She ran a hand down her face. “I’ll call Leslie and get in for an exam.”
“Holy shit,” Jason gasped. “We’re gonna be uncles!”
***Part Three***
He shifted the phone to rest between his ear and shoulder, hands busy pouring coffee into his cup. “Hello?”
What are you doing right now?
“Bruce? Is that you?”
Answer the question, Hal.
He rolled his eyes and frowned. “Well, it’s nine A.M., I’m making a cup of coffee. I know bats are nocturnal, so this might come as a surprise to someone like you, but rest assured it’s a normal habit for us normal folks.”
How fast can you get to Gotham City?
“Willingly?” Hal chuckled, setting down the coffee pot to grab the phone. “What’s going on?”
I need your…help…with something. And I need you in Gotham as fast as you can get here…please.
He almost dropped both the phone and coffee mug. “Did you just say you need my he—” the line went dead with a click, and he pulled the phone from his ear. “Asshole,” Hal scowled and shoved the phone in his pocket, before putting the mug down. His body flashed green as he suited up and he sighed. “Can’t believe I gotta go to the land of the living dead at nine A.M.”
***
He rubbed his temples as he disconnected the call, barely suppressing the sigh that wanted to escape him. “Are you mad at me?” he heard behind him, low, scared, and worried; he shook his head.
“No.”
She leaned against the desk, staring down at the side of his head. “Are you disappointed in me?”
Bruce sighed this time. “At your basic lack of common sense and sleeping with a team member despite the fact that I’ve told you time and again that inner-team-dalliances only end badly? Yes.” He turned his eyes to her. “But for being pregnant? Never.”
“Doesn’t seem like it, dad,” she muttered, crossing her arms over her chest; he watched them lower to hold her stomach.
“I think Hal Jordan’s an idiot,” he stated. “If it seems like I’m upset, it’s because he’s going to be my grandchild’s father and I’ll have to be nice to him now.” She huffed a laugh and he reached over, placing a hand on her arm. “It’s going to be okay, sweetheart. We’ll take care of this.”
“I know, it’s just…” she sighed. “I never expected this to happen.”
“No one ever does,” Bruce answered. “Have you contacted Leslie yet?”
She nodded. “Yeah. I’ll go see her around three.” Grunting, she muttered, “Figured if Hal got here in as soon as possible, we’d have enough time to sit and talk about this before we went.” She ran a hand over her face. “God, I can’t believe I Hal knocked me up.”
“Please don’t say that,” Bruce griped. “I don’t like that phrase.”
“But that’s what happened, dad. I got knocked up by Hal.”
“Why do you hate me?” he scowled, dropping his head into his hands. “How did this even happen?”
Sighing, she recounted, “After the mission in Brazil, Hal invited Barry back to Coast City for a drink and Barry invited me.” She shrugged. “I didn’t wanna be rude even if I am typically antisocial, so I accepted, and we got there and found a bar. After a couple hours, Barry had to get back to Central and we just decided to keep drinking.”
She grunted. “Hell, by seven thirty we were already gone so we got a ride back to his place and he offered to let me stay the night and one thing led to another and—”
Bruce raised his hand, effectively silencing her. “I can infer what happened after that.” He rubbed his temples. “Let’s just wait for Hal to get here, yeah?”
“Yeah,” she agreed, falling silent.
***
Alfred cleared his throat. “Master Jordan, is here, sir.” They both looked up from the Batcomputer at the test pilot.
“Thank you, Alfred,” Bruce said, and the butler nodded, ascending the steps.
Hal walked towards them. “So, what’s the deal? Why do you need me?”
Bruce looked at her and she sighed. “Actually, I’m the one who needed you to come here, Hal.”
His brown eyes darted to hers, a flash, a recognition of something and he nodded. “Aright. What’s up?”
“Dad…give us a moment?” he nodded and stood from the Batcomputer, walking to the medical section on the other side of the cave. She waved Hal over. “You might wanna sit down.”
He did, albeit suspiciously. “Why are you acting so…weird?”
“Hal,” she said, then looked at her hands. “I’m…ah crap.”
“What’s wrong?” he asked, brows furrowing.
She took a deep breath and admitted, “My period’s late and there’s a good chance I’m pregnant.”
For a moment, Hal didn’t say a word, then he burst into laughter. “Oh, that’s hilarious!” he held his stomach and wiped his eyes. “That’s a good one.”
“I’m not joking, Hal,” she spat. “In the last three months, you’re the only man I’ve had sex with. If I’m pregnant, you’re the father.”
He stopped laughing at that. “Are you being serious?”
“Dead.”
Hal ran a hand through his brown hair and let out a shocked breath. “Holy hell.” She watched him and he gaped at her. “W-what…what do we do?”
“I’ve got an appointment with Doctor Leslie at four. You’re welcome to come along if you’d like.”
He nodded. “Yeah. Yeah, I will.” Swallowing thickly, he said, “Does he know?”
“Dad? Yeah. They all do.”
“They?” he repeated, eyes wide.
“My brothers.”
“You told them we slept together?”
She chuckled. “Apparently a year ago under heavy meds, I admitted I slept with Dad, Dick, and Jason’s exes.” She shrugged. “There’s not much I keep from them.”
Hal’s eyes shifted to Bruce’s back. “Can’t imagine the Big-Bat is happy about this.”
“Oh, he’s not. He thinks you’re an idiot, but judging by the look on your face, you already know that.”
He scoffed. “Your dad likes to think he’s smarter than everyone else.”
She cocked a brow. “He is.”
“And it seems like you’re following that strain well,” he shot back, and they glared at each other before cracking smiles.
“If this is real, we’re going to be some parents, huh?”
Hal could sense the fear in her voice, and he stood in front of her, placing his hands on her hips. “Hey,” he murmured. “No parents are perfect. And we’re sure as hell not.”
“If this is supposed to cheer me up, it’s not.”
“I’m not trying to cheer you up. I’m trying to reassure you,” he corrected, squeezing her hips lightly. “We’ll work through this, and we’ll do it together.”
She gazed at him then heaved a sigh and leaned her head on his shoulder. “Thanks Hal.”
“Don’t mention it,” he chuckled, then murmured, “But if we really are going to be parents, should we tie the knot?”
“Absolutely not.”
***
“Hal, for the love of God, will you sit down?” she griped. “You’re starting to make me anxious with all that pacing.”
He sighed, running a hand through his hair before shrugging off his bomber. “I can’t help it,” he retorted. “I hate waiting.”
“Yeah, I’ve noticed.” She rolled her eyes. “Leslie’s working as fast as she can. Just sit down and be patient.”
Hal paced for another minute before collapsing into the seat beside her; she took his hand in hers and rubbed her thumb on the back of his hand. “What are you doing?” he asked, and she hummed.
“Comforting you.”
“Why?”
She looked at him. “Because you’re worried.”
“How are you not?”
“I am,” she commented, and he scowled.
“You don’t look it.”
“Well, that’s because I was trained to retain my emotions a as child,” she retorted. “It helps when I’m dealing with children who are scared.”
“I’m not a child,” Hal hissed, and she snorted.
“Could’ve fooled me.”
“You know what? I’m gonna—”
The door opened and their mouths snapped shut as Leslie walked in with a smile. “Good afternoon.”
“Hey Leslie,” she greeted, then glanced at the papers in her hand. “So? What’s the verdict?”
Leslie handed her the file and she looked it over. “Case of irregular period, dear.”
She blinked and said dumbly, “I’m not pregnant?”
“No,” she said, shaking her head. “Our bodies act up sometimes, even when we’re grown. Irregularities can still happen even now.” Clearing her throat, Leslie added, “But your blood and urinalysis came back negative. You’re not pregnant.” She looked between Hal and her. “With the results, you’re free to leave.”
She stood to her feet, but when Hal didn’t, she tugged his hand. “Hal,” she whispered. “Come on.”
He staggered to his feet. “Yeah, I’m coming.” He disappeared out of the clinic room, and she sighed, then looked at Leslie.
“Thanks doc.”
“Of course.”
***
They were quiet on the park bench, watching the sun reflect off the water and listening to the birds singing in the sky. “So…I guess that’s a relief,” Hal stated, and she nodded.
“Yeah. I guess it is.” Laughing, she said, “I mean could you imagine if I were actually carrying your kid?” when he didn’t laugh, she looked over at him. “Hal?”
He blinked, shaking himself out of his thoughts. “Yeah, couldn’t imagine it.”
“Hal,” she plead. “Are you upset that I’m not?”
“What? No. No, I’m relieved you’re not pregnant, but…” he sighed and shrugged. “I dunno at the same time as scared as I was, I was happy, you know? Ready to step up and be there for you.”
She lowered her gaze to his hands and reached over, placing hers over his and he took it, squeezing. “Well, look at it this way. This was the universe telling you that you’re ready to be a father and this was the universe telling me that I’m not ready to be a mom or your baby’s mother.”
Hal gazed at her for a moment then chuckled. “Yeah, I guess it is.” He squeezed her hand again and climbed to his feet, flashing green as his suit appeared. “Now that everything’s sorted out, I should be getting back to Coast City.”
“Sounds good,” she agreed, standing to her feet.
“Can I drop you off anywhere?”
“Nah, I’m gonna walk around for a bit,” she said.
Hal took to the sky then looked down at her. “If you ever find yourself ready…call me?”
A shocked laugh bubbled in her chest, and she shook her head. “Not a chance in hell, Jordan.”
“Come on, don’t you think it would be fun to have the old Bat call me his son in law?”
Giggling, she waved him off. “Get out of here, Hal.”
Winking, he replied, “See you later, babe.”
She couldn’t help but chuckle and watch him leave, then she shook her head. “Ridiculous.” But a small smile was still on her lips as she headed down the street.
***Alternate Ending***
She gazed numbly out at the water, not sure if she should feel surprise or shock, but whatever emotion she was feeling had completely dumbfounded her. She was pregnant. Her hands had unconsciously pressed tight to her stomach, and she felt sick more than anything. Sick, scared, ashamed, every emotion that came with sleeping with a coworker—and every TV show and movie where the woman got pregnant from the affair.
How was she going to explain this to her family? To her friends? How was she going to face their scrutiny? Pregnant out of wedlock? With the biggest skirt-chasing, arrogant asshole in the galaxy? She’d take the brunt of their scathing opinions. He’d get off scot-free. He’d—
“(Y/N).” Someone’s hand rested on her shoulder, and she blinked, suddenly brought from her stupor and she looked over at him; his gaze was full of worry. “Are you okay?”
Instantly, she felt angry, and she jerked away from him, standing to her feet. “Am I okay!” she shouted. “You got me pregnant! Do you have any idea what this is going to do to us! To our reputations! To mine!”
Irritation etched across his face, and he stood to his feet, getting in her face. “It takes two to tango, (Y/N). We both did this—not just me.”
Her mouth opened to retort sharply, but damned if he didn’t have a point and she shut her mouth, tasting something bitter as she looked away. “I’m going home.”
She turned and his hand shot out, grabbing hold of her arm. “Wait, I don’t want you going alone.”
“Let go of me.” She hissed, trying to pull away, but he tightened his grip.
“No. It’s too dangerous for you to be out alone.”
(Y/N) scoffed. “I think you’re forgetting who you’re talking to Jordan. I’m—”
“The mother of my child.” Hal declared and she gaped at him. “I know what you and your family think of me. I know you think I’m an arrogant asshole and yeah, I’ll admit that I am.” He pulled her to him and wrapped his arm around her waist. “But if you think for a second, I’m going to let you wander around this bat-shit crazy city alone while pregnant, then you’re the one who’s being arrogant.”
He searched her gaze. “I’m many things, (Y/N). But I’m not going to abandon you or shy away from whatever this is.”
She swallowed thickly. “What do you mean ‘whatever this is’? Parents?”
“Us.” Hal said. “Maybe it’s just my big head, but I see the way you look at me. Yeah, I annoy the hell out of you, but you care for me.” He reached up, cupping her cheek. “And I care about you too. More than just what teammates should for one another.”
(Y/N) didn’t know what to say, because he did have a point. Hal was an annoying prick who at many times provoked her into physical confrontation, but on the other hand, there was nothing she loved more than fighting with him, because she knew he found it just as amusing.
Her gaze lowered and she felt tears well in her eyes. “I’m scared, Hal.”
“I know. I am too,” he murmured. “But we’re going to get through this.” He tipped her head up, catching her eyes once more. “We will get through this. Together.”
(Y/N)’s lips wobbled, and she tried for a lighthearted comment. “Isn’t fraternization against the rules?”
Hal grinned. “Only in the military.” He winked. “Last time I checked—we’re not in it.”
She laughed, leaning forward, and pressed her forehead to his. “How’s everyone going to react to this?”
He shrugged. “Probably with shock. I mean about me getting a girl pregnant? Not likely. Getting you pregnant? More likely.”
“Shut up.”
“I think we should consider getting married though.”
(Y/N) pulled away and stared at him. “Excuse me?”
Hal looked at her. “(Y/N), we should think about getting married. I mean, we’re gonna have a kid together. Might as well tie the knot while we’re at it.”
She merely blinked and spun, walking off. “Nope. Not happening. I’ll be your baby-mama, but I am not marrying you.”
“Hey! Wait up!”

Stitching Things Together
@shewhowillnotbenamed1, I do hope you enjoy the story! =)
~~~*~*~*~~~
Jason supposed it was a weird night. It wasn’t his fault for a change; this was completely Dickhead’s fault, and if it wasn’t for Dickhead they wouldn’t be in the ER as a whole.
Idiot siblings and surprise visits, it always lead to a fucking hospital trip. Of fucking course. Jason didn’t even know why he put up with them and the utter bullshit that they inflicted on him. Of course Roy, Kyle, and Eddie thought this to be fucking hilarious, and Jason wanted to punch those brothers too. Of course this would happen.
Point was now they were at a hospital, and he sat alone on his own examination bed, already pulling out the glass of the incident; he knew he’d have to call his CO which wasn’t something he was looking forward to, and then there was the matter of Babs coming for Dickhead and the crew. Not something Jason looked forward to. He didn’t particularly like his sister-in-law, Barbara Gordon was; in his opinion, the worst option for a wife for his idiot brother. Not that Dick cared. Dick was too besotted with Barbara to care. There was a reason Jason had joined the Navy, and it wasn’t to be close to his idiot brothers!
Seriously! How much fucking damage could they do!?
The curtain was thrown back as he had a flashlight gripped in his teeth and he was gently pulling out the glass already.
His eyes flicked up to the intruder because if it was Dick he was so kicking Dick in the nuts and making his big brother sing soprano for a month.
Instead he was greeted by the look of a beautiful, bewitching angel of a woman. Her thick black hair was escaping it’s brain in wisps around her face, her heritage made her face both sharp and proud and somehow ethereal, while her violet eyes were other worldly, the black lashes of her eyes were impossibly thick. He was pretty sure she was all natural, he could see a few blemishes on her ivory skin, a small zit, a bit of uneven blush, and there was a cut on her brow. Her lips were drawn in a tight line and he noted that her upper lip was fuller than her bottom, making her almost appear uneasy, but still… She was an angel, and he was sure his brain had packed it’s bags and walked off with his lungs and heart staring at the petite woman in blue scrubs.
Holy shit, she was gorgeous, he could see that, the woman was thick in his favorite places too, despite her petite frame.
“What the hell are you doing!?” she demanded; he nearly groaned; would’ve too if he didn’t have his flashlight in his mouth. She had a voice for sex and seduction, the sort of soft voice he loved. He was so screwed. He was definitely throwing Dick’s sorry ass from a moving train when he saw him again.
“What’s it look like?” he demanded just as sharply as she had pulling out the flashlight. He glared as fiercely back at the woman, he refused to let her know how well she had instantly gotten under his skin.
“Like you’re pulling out glass with unsanitary tools!” she snapped walking back to him.
“Well, yeah,” he rolled his eyes.  “Besides I can do it.”
She grabbed a stool and slid over to him, before examining his arm. “What did you do?” she asked examining the wound.
“It’s just a flesh wound,” he pointed out. He’d patched up way worse than this.
“That doesn’t answer the question.”
“If you must know my idiot Army Family decided to come visit, and of course being the idiots they, Dickhead specifically, are, they found trouble, I was unwittingly with them.”
“Mmm,” she hummed as she started cleaning his wound. He didn’t even hiss at the sting of sterilizer on his battered flesh. He hadn’t died, and the glass would come out. She was about to get her first piece of glass from his arm when he decided now was as good as any moment to tease her.
“Ow!” he yelped, she jumped and glared at him, but he saw her impulse to hit him, which had him smiling charmingly.
“I haven’t even touched you!”
“Call it practice,” he offered.
“Will you be quiet!?” she hissed. “I don’t need to do more damage and you’re going to need stitches.”
“No I don’t, it’s just a flesh wound, little bird.”
“Little bird?” she questioned as she worked.
“Yeah, you haven’t given me your name and you know mine since you read the chart,” he pointed out. She was focused as she worked, her head tilting a bit, and he stared at the column of her slender neck. Everything about her was elegant, he felt like he was sitting in the presence of a Queen who the rest of the world had yet to acknowledge.
“Raven, Nurse Raven Roth,” she offered.
“Ah, so you are a little bird!” he mused.
She glared at him a bit playfully from beneath her lashes as she continued her thorough work.
“I mean no offense, ravens and crows are some of the smartest birds, and they’re pretty cool.” He offered.
“I take no offense, ravens and crows have good family structures and remember faces of their tormentors,” she said.
“Do you?”
“Remember the faces of my tormentors?” she mused. “Yes, particularly when they are unruly idiots who have an arm full of glass.”
“Oh this is entirely Dickhead’s fault!” he promised.
“And what, pray tell, did he do?”
“He decided to get in an overheated, passionate argument with a Marine during the Army-Navy game, and I got in the middle before those dumbasses did something dumber.” He had been sent into the window of his truck and was pissed about that, but no fights, no misconduct, just idiot brothers, and fucking off. Though Roy, Eddie and Kyle seeing it had annoyed him as the idiots wouldn’t leave it alone now. If it wasn’t one set of brothers it was another.
“That’s dangerous,” she agreed solemnly.
“You’re telling me, Dickhead just couldn’t quit while he was ahead though so I dragged him out of the place, and of course the idiot is a boneless noodle when drunk, we tripped and into the truck window I went while that asshole only got a bump on the head,” he grumbled.
“Being drunk probably helped with that, alcohol relaxes the body,” she pointed out.
“Yeah, well it’s not going to save Dickhead when I get out of here,” he grumbled. The only reason he was even here was because Tim had called an ambulance, and there was no clean escape from there with the fucking octopus that was Dick.
“And Dickhead is your brother?” she guessed.
“Not a team brother, a brother brother, and our General father is going to be annoyed when he finds out about this,” he sighed.
“Ah, well, shit happens,” Raven shrugged as she grabbed the needle and thread. He glared at her, she smirked as she reached over and started sewing him up.
The curtains were thrown open again which had Jason’s head snapping up as Duke appeared.
“You have got to do something about him!” Duke stated.
“What?”
“He found out Barbara is coming as was trying to climb out the window,” Duke said.
“Oh no, I am getting stitched up by this lovely nurse, then she and I are going for coffee, I am not dealing with Dickhead antics!” Jason stated.
Raven shot him a questioning look and he internally begged her to just say yes, because he did not want to deal with Dick, Tim, or Damian. Duke was okay, but he was Air Force and agreed not to align himself with their Army brother’s antics.
“Oh, lucky, and damn you,” Duke said as he hurried off to go get their brothers.
“We are going for coffee?”
“I was going to ask,” he promised. “Besides, you stitched me up, that’s way more intimate than a one night stand so I figured I owed you a cup.”
“I’m going to agree if you get me something to eat because I have not eaten yet and you’ve made plans for my lunch hour,” she sighed.
“Deal.”
“Then I will be happy to go to lunch with you,” she said.
“You do realize it’s really dinner.”
“If you say this is a date I will stab you with my needle,” she warned.
“I would never, I just wanted you aware.”
“Time is a unit measurement and an illusion, also if you get between me and food right now you will be in the ICU,” she warned.
“I just be in love,” he mocked.
“Don’t think so lover boy,” she countered. “And I like tea, not coffee, my grandfathers would both keel over if they thought I drank coffee.”
“I see, well, I can do tea,” he promised. “I’ll even be proper and have the right biscuits with it.”
“No, I want a burger.”
“Now I really just might be in love.”

My auto PVC has a high a cost when I used to converting keyword into a manual Campana and no sales I only have 7 keywords, chaz sometimes when you create a campaign in manual, it will, it will be a little bit early. Evaluate your campaign if you don’t get the first initial Impressions that turn into Converse, so if you create a manual campaign and just, for whatever reason people see the ad, click it but don’t buy Amazon basically says okay this isn’t relevant until they stop giving you Impressions and they stop serving your eyes, so try creating a new campaign what does converting keywords from Auto, set bid Plus on and turn it on to a high bid, and use phrase match and then tell me what happened, hey how Amazon received my products to ship then, I’m use I mean I shipped directly from China to Amazon FBA Warehouse I never use any Middleman, it’s by far the cheapest and best way to do it is just, the first time is a little tough, you always have state inspections done Orlando yeah absolutely, if you wanted a percent always said Hey Kevin when will you refund the modules if we have already bought the full course, students life Justin just message me anyone whoever buys, an individual module whatever you decide to buy the actual course, i’ll respond all of the individual modules no questions asked, what’s up with the 250 characters in The back-end search, no absolutely is not true I tested it and prove it all my students and it’s not I’m currently raining, 625 characters, or more in a number of my different listings and I verified it myself so I’m 100% sure that that is not true of the 250 character, Interesting, what places have you been to in the world Mike, helot, i just went to Asia for, 4 months and then I just got back from South America I did, carnival in Brazil Colombia Costa Rica Nicaragua Argentina, nH ride to Thailand, cambodia Olive, and no, all of the Philippines we did Singapore Hong Kong how much is it, places, is JS able to accurately, quantify, quantify what cowgirl, can you show inside the back end of Amazon how we check on PP, aBC, yeah Michael I definitely could that would be something like that I probably created for the students though cuz, i don’t want share like all my back and QVC stuff with like thousands of people on YouTube, do you recommend Shopify also at what point did you evolve to different, business models yeah I definitely recommend Shopify I have I have Shopify sites right now it’s if you know it’s an interesting way to do it, You can fulfill on your Shopify sites with Amazon FBA warehouses also and then you don’t have to pay the 15%, referral fee that you do have to pay on Amazon, basically for Amazon bring you organic traffic, steve-O that’s a great question do you think of translating your course is Spanish or other languages, i’m actually currently in the process of translating it to Spanish German and Japanese, so that’s coming soon, depends on changes the rules on a subject you communicate only via Facebook group or do you update update the course saline I do both I, i tell all my students hey young this changed, you know release a new video and say this is where you can find it within the student membership platform, when we message you Danny just shoot me a message on Facebook I’m the admin of you know the 20,000 person group Advanced group and then, As well.
Do you have any certain categories are private label, yeah I definitely do I share that my product research videos and with all my students I’m going to jump over to the student group really quick, where’s the official chat window, this is it, josh, so, answer questions here first we can laugh about 5 minutes looks like there’s about, 50 people watching in the student group right now, so whenever you guys have questions in the Sudan group, post them in the chat, of the brown belt group, and if some if one with one of my students with a mine, tell the Blackwell group that we live here, the questions that I’m answering right now Josh her from YouTube cuz there’s no questions from the student group yet it takes people a couple minutes to get online, And it’s only, 5302 Pacific so, i’m going to give people a few more minutes, youTube vicious, hundreds and hundreds of people, on so they asked a lot more, with full-course do we have access on both black belt and brown belt groups, under the branco group is linked in the actual membership platform, on the blackout group you get in your fulfillment email when you purchase the full course, it’s a lot smaller and I answer every single one of the questions in there, approximately how many products do you have on Amazon about 62 right now, thank you for your interesting, 625 all in the first line of between V Line, it doesn’t really matter you can put a thousand characters for line, does not a difference really, then, i do already private-label and I make nice money is there anyway I can make more money with your course I know all the tricks, I mean if you know all the tricks then you probably wouldn’t need any course right but I mean I have a ton of stuff that I’ve never seen anyone else talk about, the TPC course allowing people have a lot of people have messaged me saying hey like I paid for your course, in a week with, pVC section alone so, yeah check it out if you’re interested, does a money back guarantee too so I always stand behind, everything that I’m teaching, shut up from Barbados, would love to have you down here one day thanks for all the noise, o matic Barbados, so amazing seeing all the different, people out there, give a mobile version for your courses yet you can watch it on iPad on iPhone it’s the same thing that the videos play both, both ways, All right imma jump back into the, student group, can you pick the category if you want to sell any of the certain product might not have as many reviews in one, yeah definitely Josh I mean this is a great question because, a lot of people, you know this is generally a gray area between white and black hat but a lot of people, well, purposefully, categorize their their product, in a smaller category to get the number one bestseller badges right because, you have to outsell the people in organic positions one to get that badge, but if you know it’s, significantly easier to outsell someone in a smaller category with less volume, if you have a better product right so when you’re doing your giveaways at the beginning during product launch at things like that if you, give a small category that you’re more likely to get the best seller badge and people don’t actually look, At the sub-category node all they see.
Get the best seller badge, right at the other cool part about Miss categorizing a purpose, display is, if you have if you miss categorized into a smaller category and enough people are organically finding your product, through of the main path to the larger subcategory, amazon will actually automatically assign you dual subcategory knows which basically means you’ll have, yeah, you’ll have a categorization in like sports and outdoor patio whatever and then you also have like, sports outdoor patio and then like a smaller subcategory, simultaneously, brad says that the reason is no questions in the brown belt group his kids were also will train after your training, exactly, how can you ungate a product category on JSO like if you want to sell in beauty or grocery or things like, Amazon needs a little bit more information, and, all of my students have a really good contacts on Gates, super quickly, in the different, category soap, if you guys need, dawngate just message me and I’ll introduce you to the team I work with to do that, do you look at student potential products and give your opinion on what you think honest opinion, bentley absolutely that’s why I created the six steps of product research, if you guys haven’t seen the common questions document definitely runs through it I link all might you know graphic artist cycling, all of my Freight forwarders, i talked about you know the six steps of product research that really takes out all of the guesswork, involved, when you actually are picking a product, so if you haven’t taken a look at that look at those six steps and then for all my students after you find the, How to take screenshots of those six datapoint, send them to me and you know we can have a really, detailed conversation about whether or not I think it’s worth it to jump into that product, or you know move on to a different one, about how much is your profit from your sick, 62 products do you have any failures and mediocre products, my Prophet is a lot more than I was making my nine-to-five job, stavros, yeah I’ve had products that were mediocre and failures for sure, i mean, it’s kind of hard to avoid that sometimes you know there’s things out of your control like, you know a ton of competitors will come in that weren’t there originally or you know it was it was a fad or if things like that right, writing this ways to mitigate the risk of those potential things happening but, For the most part the things that, naproxen have chosen that have had failures, have come from kind of like external factors that were outside of Michael, control the even when you do your due diligence, you’re still not going to be able to avoid some of those you know, out of your control factors, hi Kev do you comply, do compliance short titles get better ring from the I run in those that are long and non-compliant, no absolutely not Jake you should use all 200 characters 100% of the time, amazon actually has this algorithm now that they’re using that goes through in like basically weeds out these like, keyword stuffed titles and then it’s really annoying to change it back but, you should always, you should always be, using all of your available space in your title in the reason for that is, because Amazon weights, keyword, Strength.
Differently in the different sections of your listing right so the product description has the lowest wait right so I have to, lowest impact the lowest amount, of, kind of like, bang for your buck as far as keywords go as far as, indexing for Dusky rose right, augustus, description of the lowest, mangos products, bullets, and then it goes back and keywords and then your most important, place to put keywords is your title so the title should always be iterating always be changing, based on your PPC search term report right so if you have, if your keywords that are getting a ton of clicks, write interconverting gray and you have low a cost, those keywords should appear, first intertitle right because you want Amazon to wait those heaviest, and you want people to see those, right and then click through to your product, cuz it I mean it’s important to know Jaden is the long answer but I hope this is helping, It’s important to note that if you get a ton of clicks right and you can see that in your search term report, for specific keyword putting that first in your title so more people, see it, right you know that that’s what they’re looking for you know because you can see with hard data from your search term report that is what they’re looking, and then you can put it in the title, increase your click, conversion rate even further because they, see that for that word that’s in their mind, when they’re searching for your product and eclipses during a buy right so it’s, it’s an iterative process but you can use your search term report said it’s a really step it up, you’ll see two products selling on Amazon FBA if you don’t mind how much you make in Revenue per month and how much is profit a lot a lot, More than I was making at my nine-to-five job, i always I always avoid this question right because, yeah I think that it’s kind of private what people have built, i obviously have you know multiple stores, more than two, you know, my students know how many stores I have but, if you want to stay with in terms of service you can have one and then you can ask for an approved second so I always recommend, doing what you’re comfortable with, how’s the initial lost video coming I’m chomping at the bit, brad let’s talk about that right now so all show you guys details about the launch video but let’s, let’s get a little Caesar going right here, so, essentially launching a product on Amazon is like this, UI track or you use the product tracker in Jungle Scout to get a very clear and accurate, number of sales per day, for the top five people, it organically renting for your listing right, once you have that, you can basically know for sure, how many units does people are selling on Amazon FBA, per day I want you to know that then you all you have to do to launch app I can get to the page 1, is you just sell one to two more then that average, per day, for three to seven days if you want to get the page one for sure do it for 7 days so if, if the average people in position 1 through 5 organiclear selling 5 per day, then you spend you give away at you run giveaways for 7 per day, for 7 days, and you will 100% get to page one right, my students and I will go into a little bit more detail about how to rank for specific, Keywords we’re going to talk about glean. Io if you want to run really targeted giveaways.
And you want to really, yo step up your game right clean. IO is definitely a very advanced, method butt, we’re going to, start getting into the more advanced stuff my student group, so when I make that product launch video I’m going to go really in-depth, even further about how to launch, how to run giveaway so you can, you write for your keywords rather than just a PSR increase and then we’re going to talk about Killeen. I’ll which I think is one of the most important, ways to launch a product and not only launch a product but then collect those emails to, you know half horizontally, related future product launches which once you have an interested, The customer base, is so much easier, how accurate is your experience with jungle Scout sales estimate, i know that is essentially based on algorithm that calculates sales estimates based on sales rank, i wish I could some product it seems like jungle Scout is usually accurate within 10%., so, the jungle Scout product tracker, is quite accurate, when it’s, possible to run the eye track, 999 trick, right if they have above, 1000, 999, or their merchant fulfilled, amazon, sorry excuse me jungle Scout estimator, their sales, right in the product rapper and the sales estimate based on their BSR, category specific BSR, so if you got a junglescout.com I think, scout.com estimate, dot-com, can I be estimator to, yes oh okay here we go so junglescout.com estimator so you can see, based on you know what category it is, you enter the sales rank for baby or whatever right so you enter the BSR and there and then it’ll estimate the the, Selling for months and it does that with a PSR rating right, in the one-off cases where it doesn’t if not able to get the true number that estimates based on PSR and then you’re seeing less, which is why I always recommend, you know before diving into a product, you can use the product tracker, before you make a final dive manually track that product, 3 days using GI tract 9.9 carb method trick, right and then you’re going to be feeling a lot safer that you’re 100% getting actor, not did I answer your question, not sure if you got it about as marjawan Mercier Amazon but I just got approved not wondering, and not wondering if there are resources out there and get you started from A to Z, i had a few, spell down there, Yeah Josh, if your, just go to the bonus modules, there’s a really detailed write-up that I did on everything merge how to check you no copyright and trademark stuff, how to see you know the best sellers and then how to make choices about what you want to sell to change up those bestseller design, your own, original design which is, based off things you know are selling well and, that’s it all on 10 yet, the same thing it’s in the bonus modules there’s a video there’s also a resource PDFs in there, how did help you guys find that you can, thanks for the add when you change the title do you need to change the UPC, e-cigarette whatever it’s called that Amazon provides, no you don’t, way to change the title, the title that has nothing to do with the the UPC and the offense, use the term BSR I’m not familiar with this term is this sales rank, Yes it’s called best seller ranking that.
Amazon back in the YouTube real quick cuz the, there’s no more questions in the brown belts group, oh my gosh all right there’s a lot of, la questions on YouTube, do you do private coaching, for my full course students it’s as close as I get to private coaching, but I felt that I can help more people and enabled more people to create, these are businesses on Amazon and leave the 9 to 5 grind behind, buy kind of appealing to the masses and, focusing more of my time on, videos that everyone can watch and more of my time on YouTube that you know can reach more people and essentially help more people, when when Comes Your German course version it’s coming I promise in Spanish and Japanese are coming to guys, It’s going to take me a second but it’s coming for sure, oh my gosh all right I’m scrolling, i’m screwing up really quick I want to, i want to catch, trying to catch all of these, 62 product how you keep track, with assistance and width, really, well-organized inventory forecasting Martin, would you always recommend to do a product inspection even if it’s your first test order for a product in the quantity of small, i mean it’s cost-benefit right, there has been times that I have not been an inspection to get the super simple product, and I just say hey, show me pictures, and show me videos of the products show me videos of your of your factory and I feel okay about that fit 10, no everyone comes back when I say things like that says you’re not to inspections are you like never seriously, No guys, you should always be a inspection unless it’s a tiny order right or it’s an incredibly simple product., that’s what I said, and that’s that’s how I feel about it, so I normally always recommend inspection, is answer but yes I have in the past just gotten, hD videos and pictures, and felt okay about it, should I pay less bids on the PPC after I started getting some, some cells, not no I mean if you’re getting if you’re getting profitable sales from PVC increase your beds don’t don’t decrease then you, you want to be served, you want your ads with your first for those words that you’re converting so raise your bids for those, how do you call your PVC course where can I find it, and what do you mean about 100% money back guarantee, yeah so yummy you have 30 days to try to coerce you get access to our student groups which are Super valuable right, You had access to a ton of PDFs, very in-depth step-by-step and then a bunch of videos on everything PPC, and this very unique stuff in here bad at no one else is talking about this anywhere that I’ve ever seen and I taken pretty much every course, out there, it just doesn’t compare in my personal opinion, and hopefully my students would agree so ask them if you want, how to go from there, and you can find it in the comments of this, description of this YouTube video, it’s called Amazon FBA ninja course modules, and you can look at all the different modules or if you want the full corset, spell bizarre as well, is brand registry essential for a first product if not can a listing still be created, you can create a product without, Brand registry brand registry actually his updated recently to.
But now it requires a trademark, so, it’s a little bit harder for brand new size right because trademarks in USA can take, 6 to 10 months, so, if I purchase your course can I access it anytime I want her to have a duration for them, video yesterday everyone versus my Courtside lifetime access forever right and I, updating it, at least weekly with all the brand new stuff and you get that all once you purchase, is the course completely for free I’m on never there’s no hidden charges or anything like that, once you’re a member of the Ninja family you always will be and you’re always going to get all of the newest updates completely for, jeffrey, how do you get quick reviews on your first private label product, john Amazon actually launched a program called the early reviewer program right so if you look in your advertising menu, Even sellercentral they have a program at $60 to get your first 5 reviews, i’m just a few requirements like it has to be $15 or more and you pretty much went 0, u10 reviews for it, but it can see your first 5 a lot of other people will use friends and family right this is technically against terms of service but, if you choose people that you’re not friends with on Facebook and you’re not related to in any way, then it’s pretty low-risk and then you can just reimburse them on PayPal whatever, and so a lot of people do that I don’t press the recommended right because it is against terms of service but, a lot of people are doing it and it’s important for everyone to know you know what people are doing, regardless of whether or not that is, Let you know within the terms of service and are personal record, is your from Europe to do still selling Germany or UK or should you go to the US Marketplace, you can do both I mean Europe is a beautiful expanding market right with, significantly less competition, and Incredibly, lower barriers to entry as far as, pBC right there’s a lot of very intelligent marketers in the USA when it comes to pay per click advertising, but in Europe for some reason on Amazon the PPC is just, ripe for the picking you can get you 10% a cost, huge huge margins on these, and you don’t even have to, create, well well done, easy campaigns to do this, which is of great part about the Europe Market, imma jump back to the student group it looks like there’s about 75 people watching now, see where I was, if you click on the livestream is a whole other comment section that Kev can’t see, Why the quest, answer, amber are people are people asking questions on my actual Facebook page, others not many though, leslie Mario’s Brittany and creme come to the come to the brown belts group and ask the questions there I’m sure, trying to read them all from the same place, all right, why you creating multilingual version when you say, that you will soon close the chorus, because I want to know enable people from other countries, used to be able to do it and I haven’t decided for sure about whether or not I am closing the course, tentatively planning for the end of the month, but you know, does this always, some other options, out there so what we’ll see what happens, stavros but, i want to try to enable people from other countries, To be able to.
No experience how amazing Amazon FBA is and how can, change your life, for you from, you know that corporate spiral that too many people, think it’s normal, cuz it’s not it’s not normal to work this ER weeks at all at all, it’s normal to travel the world and have time with your friends and family and loved ones in, and to be able to do whatever you want really live, i’m tracking a product right now that is getting like 84,000 hits on merchantwords but it’s turning out so far to knock it, not getting good sales, what does normally mean, the products wouldn’t be getting 84,000 hits on merchantwords the word would right Josh so, the keyword would, i mean I need to, see more information to be able to answer that but based on the high volume keyword, remember, merchant words is an estimate, Write the estimate, the keyword volume, again based on PSR and based off Amazon, auto search fill feature, for the search bar soap, don’t take what merchant words are anything besides Google Keyword Planner says, as gospel right because, it’s not it’s not always true the only accurate volume predictor, is Google Keyword Planner and the search engine, southern strategy, the picnic category but when doing research you have to search for the highest volume keyword in all departments are there ever a Time, definitely always time to do keyword research in these categories, i mean I like to look for, products, that hit not only one set of keywords, but hit multiple right so, it would be like a product like a humidor, right, so you can say humidor as the keyword, humidor, you know like, low-moisture humidor travel humidor and then if you think about a humidor right what is a humidor, Who is the target market for that, humidor also is a perfect, qR is a perfect product, for the keyword set, gifts for Grandpa gifts, retired dad gifts for dad right, so it is hitting on his multiple, levels of keywords, as you have a lot more to play with, when it comes to pee, bBC right so I always feel, extremely comfortable investing in a new product, when I have multiple Avenues, i’m to be able to, pursue, for that product, from a PVC perspective from a key or perspective is a lot more testing I can do, and I feel very comfortable that I can out optimize anyone out there when I have more to play with with nuc products like the angle, ruler right and like there’s literally nothing else, besides the keyword Anglers ruler, so it it’s, if tougher people cuz there’s multiple competitors with this only one key words I just dropped the, PVC cost, and you know there’s just no there’s no way to iterate, and it’ll create value through optimization when there’s so few, when is Sao Kirito, what’s up Kevin I’m wondering if you can make a video tutorial on or Q&A on some of your most effective negotiation tactics, what manufacturer, a problem I’ve been having is that one’s closer and most manufacturers don’t seem to have much wiggle room on pricing, and consequently I’m struggling to find a park with 30, percent plus margin, yeah let’s talk about that right now Andrew, the best ways, negotiate with a manufacturer or anyone in life right is to actually be, comfortable walking away, right so if you have one manufacturer you’re talking to and then you know that the only one you kind of like spend a lot of time for a lot of time, And they’re saying you don’t know we can’t go down.
That’s on you right because you should be having, 5 to 10 manufacturer that you’re constantly you’re talking with, you should be getting, formalize quotes, you know at least your top five, and then with those quotes I’m taking Photoshop right and I’m changing moq from 5000, 2 500 and I’m changing the cost per unit, from 3 to 1 and then I’m showing that photo shops, yeah that stuff Photoshop quote, to my other for manufacturers and saying hey can you match this I want to work with you but you know I’m getting this I’m getting this, specific quote from his other manufacturer and I just know I like you the best but I can’t, i can’t rationalize going with someone else when they’re offering so much less than you are so is there anyway that like you know you, You are your boss would be able to, you know okay a discount list, specific case to form a long-term relationship, being willing to walk away truly and having other options and in leveraging them against each other, the kind of break it down right and then there’s there’s more advanced ways like, using 1688 and free shopping China to 2, view the cost per, per product in RMB, right and then show them hey like I could buy this, exact same product for this much, once you convert 2 RMB to USD, we talked about that we talked about all that in the course, i’m for supplies and shipping and how to find the best guys out there and protect yourself right, when using the eye tracker method and wanted to know do I need to track all the sellers, edward III track the top 5 and if I’m really serious and sometimes I even took the top 10, You want to make sure by tracking more than just that one Park you found, right because you want to make sure that there’s, spread out sale Dennis notches, one person, right that’s getting all the sales you want to make sure that if you do come into the market and you can get to page one, even if you get the page one right if only the person in position 1 on page one is getting any sales, that’s usually a bad sign you want to be that you want to have the sales, spread out amongst all the different guys, are all the different offerings in Tatum, is it possible to create an Instagram following if Instagram Saint Archer shut down, yes possible but it’s obviously a lot harder now you have to actually like manually Post in manually, and get people into, Which stockings are basically just, have slowed down my set my Instagram, you said I still have some brands that you know 10,000, or so followers but, night I use Instagram to build all that I just don’t have time to manually, handle Instagram, there will eventually be a viable alternative to Instagram, and when when I do find that I will share obviously with all my students, josh yes the keyword can you canoe, can you rephrase or tell me what you mean below, we plan on making a video about starting up in the Australian FBI jianye I absolutely will once it become, once we get more of us solid answer from Amazon about when that launched is, amazon’s usually late, from their initial estimates expanding into new markets, so I wouldn’t, see, you know what that happening for, a while so, but yeah once once I get more information on when that actual launch is, I definitely 100% will make a video about that.
Translate your course of Russian we are in need of good coaches and courses and not many Russians, english actually have some, i have probably like five Russian students that have that have offered a translator for me maybe I will do that I just wanted to hit kind of the, the big, the Big Three, first but then maybe maybe you down the line, weekend, expand, you ever recommend see shaving I’ve been quoted, what’s the shipping at 1/8 the cost of air shipping but I’m not sure about all the other costs added on to see Shiva, yeah I see she’ll probably 90% of the of what I said, right once you once you get to the level we are shipping containers right 20 or 40 foot containers, you can’t release it by air, feasibly anymore right to all s***, Oh Ship, 10, 20% of my product, via air, just to get that initial momentum get the launch right you have to, plot it out how much you ship by air, right, the plot out, how long you going to stay in, in stock, in relation to your giveaways rights after giving away 10 per day, and then you’re selling 10 today so if you’re giving 10 per day away for the first, 7 days that 70 units right and then if the top, guys, top 1 through 5 organically are, selling 10 units per day and you know you need 70 for your giveaway, and then you need 10 per day how long it takes, the ship the rest of your unified by feisty right so everything’s 30 Days by C 30 * 10, 300 + 74 give away so I ship 370 units, via air and then I have the rest come by see and save a bunch of cost, increased my profit margins by saving money on the sea shipment but also you can get your product moving, Get those initial reviews get that initial momentum via are too kind of hit the ground running when your products to arrive by sea, how do you feel about launching a variant of an existing product that is competitive and has a lot of sales variance currently not available on Amazon, what do you mean by variant Leslie, can you tell anymore, detail about Duty fee how to calculate when you ship by Express, yeah I mean, use my Freight forwarders and just tell them yo I want to see every single cost that I’m going to incur right, there’s your Customs Bond whether it’s continuous or one time there is port, right, did all these little hidden costs, stop with all shipping right, tell them hey I want an exact estimate right some of the stuff is going to change, But I want to see as, exact of an estimate as it’s possible to tell him you want to see the port fees, tell him you want to see estimated customs, write telling me you want to see every single little thing, from the second they pick it up from the China for it to the second that it arrives in the Amazon FBA warehouse and they should be able to at least, please give you an estimate right they won’t be able to give you exact cuz it changes but they will be able to give you an estimate, i heard you have a million-dollar secret Facebook group Doss, nick, i love you, yes I do have a mastermind for people doing seven figures or more of those currently, about 80 of us in there, that’s why I hope to add you all one day once once we all reset plan, What is up Kevin live video for the win.
Thanks Justin good to see you, what should I do if I have unsold product after 6 months, i mean six months is when long-term storage kicks in which is like, 22 times more expensive, then your regular Source fees, so you can ship them you can make an exit order from Amazon ship them like to your house or to a different Warehouse, and then Amazon has a minimum number of days that you have to basically have you that inventory that unsold inventory, out of an FBA Warehouse before you can give it back in, i think it is 45 days currently, i’m not 100% sure on that but I’m pretty sure that it’s 45 days to ship it to your house in 45 days and then ship it back, or you know you can make a destruction order if it’s just that you know a terrible product or it’s just not working at all, Would you say it’s a fat shoes are shipping most of the time if our final product order from Alibaba is under 200 lb, it’s not it’s not about whether it’s a family it’s about whether it’s, if cost, efficient right, if you if you can ship a product, baisi, for you know, ten times cheaper than do you want that extra profit margin built into your unit when they arrive, or, do you want to get started now be able to, selling in cement that you know that lead that barrier to entry of your reviews and getting the momentum to maintain, position on page one, bright is a cost-benefit analysis, it’s not really about being safe, that’s a good question., i’ve heard of Thomas net not being user-friendly have you heard of any tags or finding mom-and-pop manufacturers locally on the US side not really there I mean, The best way by Forest Thomas that your rights not user-friendly but at the same time it’s not that, you know that you eat Jenny, any intelligent person can, figure out thomasnet, all you have to do is just kind of, you know, wander around it for an hour and then you’ll feel you’ll feel comfortable about it, how important is getting a Facebook group going with many likes beer brand, types of Facebook groups, specifically for light campaigns is, essentially, not as important as that you, facebook, change their algorithm to not allow Facebook group, bikes, to actually reach that target market right so, years ago if you had a Facebook group with a million likes and you’ve made a post, all million of those people would get a notification right but now if you think about it you liked pages, We ever get notifications about it it’s because, you know, you don’t actually get notified as a liger of a page anymore Facebook change that Albert look at those annoying too many people right they, they made all these changes to edgerank and things like that so it is, it is, yeah reasonably important but it’s not as important as, that used to be, like I say in my in my full-course right building a Facebook group, for you know people who are passionate about your hobby, in general is actually much more important then, creating a Facebook group specifically for likes, what up Kev can you tell us about taxes do you have to register to pay taxes, any other test, all right so this is obviously a very complicated question, i have to be like everyone else and say this is not official tax advice like you should talk to your CPA, What I’ve heard.
That people do, is you establish Nexus in whichever States, but you hold inventory right to Amazon has a report, but you can see where you have Nexus where you have the most, quantity of your inventory, what I’ve heard, a lot of people do is they’ll use taxjar, to see in a witch, states are getting the most, sales in, choose like you know if there’s three that make up 90% of your sales usually it’s like California New York Texas Florida, things like that, then you can file state returns in those, most, you know those most, the majority of your sales States, file returns in nose, and then you know call it good basically that’s what I’ve heard people are doing, technically if you wanted to do it perfectly, if you sold one unit in Rhode Island for the entire year, You technically would have to file a Rhode Island return, and pay like a Santa tax, but no one in their right mind is going to do that right so it’s a cost, did the cost-benefit, like everything else in business, i hope that kind of answers your question do you learn it’s a complicated question no one else is, is ever say anything about it but that is what I’ve heard, if you find a party that has good sales, fur Day and there’s no competition is that an opening is that an opportunity to jump in early or is it risky because one offering may not judge, just fly high enough mark, that’s a great question, so there’s ways to indirectly find data, about, you know whether that is just a one-off case, or there is other Demand right so Google Keyword Planner, If you are searching on Google also, merchant words also it in high enough volume then that’s a good indicator, you can look at Google Trends right, if if there’s an upward Trend or if there’s a trend you know hovering above 5275 out of a hundred then you know that people, google searches, so there’s ways to find indirect information, but you know if you find out if you find a product with low reviews in a ton of sales, didn’t think of that as like a great thing how you found a diamond in the rough, you have to do a little bit more research to be really comfortable about jumping in, how do I find the top sellers at the item has 20 sellers, edwards basically just, type in the highest volume keyword in to amazon.com the search bar, and then you’ll see, you know the person who’s ranked first organically rights with not a sponsored and he’s not a sponsor, ABC the person who’s not an ad in position 1 is the top seller for that for that keyword, for that nice, the video is no longer working for me only on YouTube at work, i can see the Facebook group, video, confirm can you guys see the brown belts video right now somebody was just saying it didn’t work, cav jsoc on the particular seller selling about five to six hundred years per month for the past 3 weeks, is it at same seller showing 6500 sales a month, how’s that possible, okay it’s working, britney I’m not sure why it’s not working for you it sounds like it’s working for other people, but yeah just go onto YouTube and working for you there I’ll switch back to YouTube and asking questions oil read your questions here, As well.
So it’s I mean it’s possible because maybe they maybe they went, you know they’re above the 909 limit or they have a Max order quantity and jungle Scout trying to estimate based on, bSR instead of like the exact actual 909 I track method, i’m so sometimes it’s a little bit off again which is why I always say, suggest manually tracking, 3 days, even after using the jungle Scout product tracker, just to be sure, can your item get destroyed by sea shipping if your pockets made of paper for example, i mean, going to be like a loose right there going to be in cartons in Palace, yes obviously you can, you can’t yeah that’s actually a great Point Beyond, ami prime.day affected that, so you can buy insurance Yulia and it’s usually extremely cheap because it rarely does anything ever happened to, do you know, Ships, it’s Alex ships sinking every once in awhile right it’s very very rare, you can buy insurance, are super cheap if you’re worried about it but no it’s not it’s not likely your attitude, get destroyed by shipping, bSC, the only thing I don’t understand about the facts section is number 6 included calculation of your talk competitor showing profit margin using this FBA fee calculator, okay so what does means Josh, is, let’s say that we’re selling a humidor right so we’ll go out to some supplier someone say hey, how much is it going to cost per unit to give me 502 medoras right, say okay it’s it’s $5 unit, so you can, obviously you’re going to negotiate that down later right but initially, you can say okay, so then you going to say, how many, humidors 51 car in and they’re going to say, 50 right in this is all I’m just making this up, 50 humidors per carton right now you’re getting 500 right, so you have 10, of those cartons and then you go to my Freight forwarder, you fill out the, the exact little paragraph that I that I asked for that they’ve been afraid for their needs and say hey, achieving 10 cartons, they weigh this much there’s this big how much is going to cost to get from, china from the, port to, long Beach, right and then we can talk about the ground shipping later, so now you have $5 per unit which is your cost of goods sold and now once the freight for the response has okay it’s going to be 5, $500 to ship those 10 cartons, and you know, okay I’ll get them in the shipping is $1 for unit so now you have $5 for cost of goods sold $1 for shipping now you know it cost you, $6, the land that product in the USA right now and shipping, And then Amazon FBA fee calculator will say hey, it’s going to cost you $4 for us to package and ship this out for you, the five, one for shipping, 4 for the Amazon Fulfillment fees so you know it’s going to cost you $10 right, to get that unit to your customer, and then if they if you charge 1999, can you know you’re making $9.99, prophet, on that overall sale, prices that make sense Josh, i think that’s a very important question that everyone needs to understand when they’re formulating these profitability metrics and proper, what abilities calculations before investing in a Prada, what happens if I can’t find item on Alibaba and DHA, well Edwards I mean, you can find manufacturers out there that are, the make similar products, right and then you can ask them hey I want to make this I know you guys make something similar, Could we do that if so let’s talk about it.
Is there a way to, how successful last, is there a way to see how successful ask you for seasonal products were in case you want to jump in, yeah definitely too I actually literally, did a video exactly on that, i’m continuing the other students maybe tell through how to find that video I did on cue for that was one of the, questions that the students voted, for for me to make a video specifically on, that’s why did make that until, exist, my next video I promise I will make for you guys soon is going to be talking about this, super advanced stuff for Glendale tile for product launch, and any other clarifications as far as you know giveaways keyword rank in product launch how to get to page one guarantee, He’s right you just have to have the budget, till I give away the number of units, required to get you there and then once you have you know three, the 5 to 10 reviews, you can maintain it at organic position on page one, if you do create a high-value product, but is more valuable than the other competitors which everyone always should be doing, always be adding value, two products NeverBeast be copying right, you absolutely, you absolutely positive you heard only that, yeah I definitely I definitely heard that right is, eOS, you want to be careful with tax stuff cuz, it’s just like legality advice right, you, is it just you going to be able to liable for what you’re saying, variant as in for example the fidget being the main hot selling products and watching a. Of it that is smaller kid a small ham, yeah you want to be careful with that bill Leslie, Did you guys do as a customer do I care, right that’s the biggest question to answer for yourself, do I care that it’s, the smaller product is the keyword volume therefore that variance, if so then definitely, i heard that Amazon TOS they require all professional seller account to have limited liability insurance, so Amazon TOS requires a lot of things, jeff, if I if I adhered perfectly to every single one of them, i would probably, be a crazy person, because there’s so many, closet importance of TOs, i know, multimillion-dollar sellers right other multi multi million-dollar cars that don’t have any liability insurance and I know people that, that sell one product, and it’s a knife, and then they have to have limited liability insurance right it depends on what you’re selling if you’re selling teddy bears, it’s much less likely that somebody is going to, Yo cut someone’s head off with a teddy bear, versus you know tonight so you want to just be logical and again cost-benefit, what do we do if JS Park soccer and then we do I-9, inventory for three days, i-99 has all computers with over 9, emily it sounds like, you’ve had this issue for a while so, it’s tough because if no one on the front page, has, have any amount of inventory you can track right there all merciful they all have Max order quantities, unfortunately I would probably let that product go because you, can’t see for sure what’s happen, exodus so many products, so many products out there, that you know, there’s no reason to invest, your time and money and upfront capital, if you don’t know for sure, answer the only way you know for sure is but with the I-99 method so, Stop.

Joseph I mean, you not meant to work, 70 hour weeks as a human being like you you should be traveling you should, in the world you should be working from, thailand on the beach, sipping a $1 Mai Tai getting a massage, for 3 USD for an hour like you shouldn’t be, killing yourself at work and anyone can do it you just have to use how to commit you have to know how you have to have the right knowledge, Right and that’s what I’m working hard to do to spread the knowledge, people who want to break free, from that horrible cycle that so many people, i’ve been brainwashed into thinking that is normal, do you use 80/20 for inspections Kev Jason I’m not sure what you mean, signing up right now do you have a promo code hehe yeah I do Dan mace in the description, its final 150, and sometimes the promo codes are kind of, finicky because I had to custom code that into clickfunnels they don’t offer, promo codes for some reason, if it’s not working copy and pasting, then just type in final 150 and then it should show you the final of the promotional code, price, any advice on how to lower a cost and yeah that’s a really that’s a really broad question does a lot of stuff you can do, Right so.
Let’s talk about that in the student group cuz that would be like a 30-minute question but the PPC module teaches you exactly how to do that right, loquera big campaign, you know negative exact matching the keywords that aren’t converting based on your search term report right, an auto campaigns is a ton of stuff, is Canada a lot of good products only have a few sellers that necessarily a bad thing in the low-volume Canadian Market, americans are so in love with, amazon, such an incredible job, at creating, incredibly loyal customers, in America so I always say you know America first but, do you want to sell in Canada you can do that too, are you familiar with the amazing selling machine method, i’m yeah I am I you know they’ve done an incredible job in marketing as well I’ve taken it, You know their actual content is not nearly as in-depth they don’t show you their actual screens right they’re not, they’re not taking you in-depth enough, that new Sellers and even Advanced sellers need to be able to implement some of this advance, methodologies writing Sol, i think that’s what differentiates are corsets, very very in-depth in the details in the trenches I’m showing my actual screen sharing my screen, in my account right showing you exactly how to do it, 80/20 sourcing does pre-shipment inspection in China for you for a small fee I’ve never used them I use different, inspection companies but yeah if it if it’s a cheap fee and you feel comfortable with the report they give you, as far as example equality and things like that then go for it Jason, does Amazon accurately for their inventory their only seller of this product inventory shows above 99, Yeah they definitely accurately report it right but Amazon Buys in 30000 unit quantities once they’re asked, slowly sure about a product cowgirl so, i’m not surprised at all that they have above 999, i have a review of the course on my page if anyone’s on the fence, nice that guy be red, i just want to let you know that you are great thank you very much for all you do you me, oh thank you you me and I appreciate that, hey Kevin that is more critical question but where do you see the limits regarding scaling in Germany how many parks in a person recently managed, thought about 25, you can really manage a lot more than you think thorben, i mean when you have va’s and you train them well right for inventory forecast management, It’s not as hard as you think Amazon, makes it so much more possible imagine trying to do this with a warehouse right that would be, incredibly difficult you have to hire employees you have to train you have to do with overturn, right turn over, so Amazon mixing, credibly easier than it ever been at any point in history to do it and you can do a lot more than you think, by yourself, especially with you know a couple well-trained virtual assist, knesset ask ask your question again sorry there’s so many questions on YouTube I’m trying to answer them but, they’re coming really fast, i need to keep the same selenium if we have four or five different products, you don’t have to write I recommend having two different seller accounts right one for your brand that you love and care about what, expand exactly you know the horizontally like make Nike, Sporting Goods.
Clothing that is a brand and then you want to have one, seller Central account that where you have, you know a bunch of just high margin products, do you have a toaster oven garlic press you have, you know a toilet see whatever, you have a bunch of different stuff just depending on what’s profitable, is it possible to compete with Amazon in the same listing, you don’t want to compete with Amazon in the actual same listing but the same niche, is definitely possible, amazon doesn’t love their products they don’t care about they don’t respond to customers on the reviews right, so you can compete against Amazon in the same niche, very well actually because Amazon just doesn’t, have the capacity to care and love their products like we do, oh I’m going to switch back to, hey Amy oh nice I saw you join the chorus ask you this morning one more Thai jungle jungle Scout Ranch Market intelligence, Market intelligence has one cool feature that jungle the jungle that doesn’t currently have and I’m actually going to I’m actually going to text Greg, drake right now, sol Market intelligence has a feature, it says, how many units you have to give a way to reach page one and it’s obviously in the beta it was not super accurate, but, it is important, to know that they have that cool feature that junk was that doesn’t currently have right so, the infinite scroll feature I’m going to talk to Greg about adding so we don’t have to press extract page million times on the jungle Scout Chrome extension, and also the giveaways, jungle Scout Amy is much more accurate as far as products right, it has the most expensive product, The product database, it has the most expensive options as far as filtering, but the market intelligence is, probably the best, second competitor in second place jungle Scout is still absolutely the best, product out there, my question is about product bundling specifically from two different suppliers I may have to, do that with my first product, yes the best way to do this connector I’ve answered, fashion a bunch of times is shipped from your, your manufacturer you trust less, to your manufacturer you trust more, have your manufacturer you trust more, assemble the bundle of the products and then shift to Amazon as a final product, both both items going to one box, 1 UTC, one by one, product listing and you ship like that and you’re welcome Baby I’ma jump back to the to the student course, play me if you have more questions or any students on the YouTube page have more question, Coming to the brown belts group that’s going to be answering all the main question, tennis courts is a rip-off compared to Kevin’s agreed Tanner, so as a beginner how long did it take you to, between product launches, i launched I simultaneously launch 7 products, at once, like my I spent $6,100, on my very first ever Amazon launch, and I liked simultaneously launched seven different products, and I got that $1,000 a day, in about 3 days, so, i always recommend it, why would you have money just sitting in your bank account, making, less than 1%, right, when you could be investing in product are you making, 30 40 50, 60%, profit margin, it just, it doesn’t make sense, keep enough money in your bank to live, and then invest the rest of it, inter products you’re doing due diligence on and you know are going to work, But you already had some experience with Amazon FBA when I first started.
My very first ever launched, do you ever ask for specific price upfront always way to leverage other quotes, i always ask for price if I’m talking to, 10 different manufacturers, hey one second, okay so I have about I have about 10 more minutes left, so I’m going to try to get through everything, what are your thoughts on electronic and electrical products, i mean I personally stay away from them they have, probably the highest return rates of anything, have any product category on Amazon because you know somebody can’t figure out how to connect to their Wi-Fi router, sent you know somebody says it arrived broken, you know there’s battery issues, there’s different, yo this different Hoops you have to jump through as far as, you know, in for it, laws it is still just a lot of complexity, And there’s also a lot of competition, the scummiest of the scum sellers on Amazon, are the electronics rights OUC undercutting UC, 100 hijackers on one listing all undercutting each other to the point where they have no margin whatsoever, i always suggest staying away, i’m finding some, rate product options I just need more Capital to launch them just wanted to say that, just wanted to say that for anyone who thinks it’s saturated, yes absolutely not saturated, i mean yeah everyone you guys tell everyone who says it’s saturated that it is right cuz we want to keep it for, is absolutely the farthest thing from saturated, is your girlfriend camera shy, they’re asking about you, amazon just deliver, yMCA, yeah maybe we’ll introduce her in a little bit but she’s, she’s a little nervous cuz there’s a lot of people watching, how do we get a ninja shirt, Oh you like the ninja start Leslie, i’m so actually gave away a couple of these, for like a little contest I did, i’m sure you’re probably watching right now, so Nick and one other guy Ryan one, the t-shirt that I had for the competition I just asked like a ridiculous question, in, are 20,000 person group, so don’t go ahead and find the immortal snail question if you want to try to win a shirt, but I will I will be giving away shirts to people soon so just yesterday I had like kind of an interesting idea, create like a ninja Hall of Fame, i’m so over everyone who’s part of the chorus right who gets, i’m $2,000 a day Mark and gross sales right not not profit or just talking about Revenue here, every single person who gets to $1,000 a day, get the place in the Ninja Hall of Fame is going to be a website page that I’m hosting rights going to have like a little picture of the Ninja, Is going to have a little description you know about when they started how long it took them to get to $1,000 a day, and so everybody who gets it at thousand dollar a day mark, just message I support, support at official Kevin david.com and with a screenshot of your sales, and we will get you added to the ninja Hall of Fame, forever live in immortality, in that in that amazing ninja Hall of Fame, customs duties is there a set percentage are all variables haven’t seen it yet in the full course, custom duties Christopher are based on devaluation of your products right to what you pay and if there’s no set, percent right because different product categories, have different percentages, You can just go to a customs duties at estimator just.
Just Google search customs duties estimator, put in what your product is finding Associated category, type in you know what your product value is in at the front of your paying your cost of goods sold right now if you’re going to sell it for, your cost of goods sold, into the customs duty calculator and you’ll be able to find it, make a note right now that I should add that, products with no experience in that cost you a ton and moq kasparaitis most supplies that offer a good price won’t go, lower than 500, it seems like you needed that much anyways, you’re going to do a giveaway do you agree, yeah I mean I talked about I talked about how to how to estimate, how many products should buy right there, it’s basically, you take, your giveaway budget, You take how many that the top people already in that needs are selling per day the average right and then you multiply that average by, 180 days cuz you don’t ever want to go over long-term storage right, camp Verde 480 days, and you’re going to buy 1800 units, plus your giveaway right, plus how many that you allocate for your giveaway so I can get their son 10 per day you want to give away 12 per day or 11:40, for 7 days, seadoo 787, plus the initial 180-day margin and that’s how men feel comfortable buying, once you’ve done your duty., is there an issue, with importing products that have built-in batteries, i stay away from Bad batteries Andrew I just there’s so many options out there that you don’t need, you don’t need to mess around with you know lithium ion batteries and all this extra Hoops you have to jump through, Associated with that, oh snap High jazz, yes just says hi, no Jazz that sided talking about you, you should send all your students ninja shirts, i should send all my students ninjasaurus Emily that’s true, i want to save them for like special stuff though like for a little contest and fun little giveaways that we run, i need a ninja hat, yanik, you definitely do need to knit a ninja hat so you should do something else for me and maybe I’ll get you one, i cough during your initial launch ever did you use all PPC and all the tricks you preaching your chorus, yeah well I mean I didn’t know all of them then Bentley but I knew some of them, joe Hazeltine and get a shirt for the thousand-dollar day Club maybe maybe I’ll do that okay, how about this guy’s everybody who gets the $1,000 a day Club, Into the ninja Hall of Fame I will send you a t-shirt all right, is there anything in Amazon TOS is making it harder to include ebooks, yeah I mean Josh it definitely they added the opt-out, right so people, i knew anyone on Amazon now can opt out of third-party seller emails which is why we’re getting all those thousands of emails or how, however many year, you’re selling right, you’re getting a bunch of email saying this customers opted out of receiving emails so so you can’t deliver the ebook because they have opted out and see, you can’t attach it as an attachment to your Fallout campaign so that’s a little bit harder, just curious how old are you Kevin, i’m 27 but my birthday is actually pretty soon, salmos 28, how do you find the HS code for a perspective, products, hS code I’m not sure what you mean by Andrew, Add me to the Hall of Fame.
Yanik send it to our support, and I’ll add you, with love, lithium can’t go are neither can ping pong balls in Mass quantity right because of pressure that’s a great Point Christopher, i heard about people getting Magnus stopped at customs, i mean like I said on the last Q&A people, amazon so terrible about certain things like you know, if you look at the little or the little magnetic balls that are like a toy it doesn’t say anything about it being gated, right it has great numbers, and then you ship in your you know, 500 units of little magnetic balls for toys and then Amazon Chester listing down and says, you know you’re not allowed to sell it on Amazon but there’s like a hundred other people selling it on Amazon currently and you’re like what the hell, So I always suggest guys listen up, i always suggest, for buying a product, before investing in a product, message Amazon Seller Support with an ace in of a currently selling products, related to your product, hey is there, any type of restriction, to sell this product for me specifically, and then get in writing, i’m saying yes you can or no you can’t sell this practice, so much better than shipping 500 units in the Amazon and then having Amazon say, you know by the way you can’t sell this, seems like there’s a market for Ninja shirts someone make that listing, yeah you guys what a great idea to maybe up maybe I’ll make that into my merch into one of my, merch by Amazon listings and I’ll make it I’ll make it as cheap as possible, my first goal be to get a ninja star that good Leslie AR, You guys I love all my students I want to send out a million shirt so everyone get there please, watching, 50 days in my issues going to go from zero to a hundred real quick. Yeah I bet, is is beauty worth getting ungated in, absolutely I mean getting ungated in grocery, immediately, remove, 50 to 75% of your competition right because most, people won’t know how first of all to get into Beauty and then, even more people won’t want to pay what it cost to get ungated, right and so you just have so much less competition immediately and it’s the, it’s a beautiful thing, all right. So one more question we’ve been going for about an hour and 20 minutes let’s take our last question in the brown belts, group and never going to say goodbye and I hope you guys all have, a wonderful amazing Sunday, The one more question, are you on adderal, just became a ninja cap I wear XL for my black belt thanks, main, yeah I’m get to that thousand-dollar Damar Jackson and I’d be more than happy to send you out a, delicious ninja shirt, and add you to the ninja Hall of Fame, the last, last question here guys, he’s on ninja roll, alright Nick, good idea focus on parks that run out in the customers I need to buy more soon customers consumer products and keep buying more, google does a great idea, write the most consumable type products is like beauty or grocery right so you need to be ungated, to be able to let you know, selling a consumable space, but subscribe and save is a, great you know you always want customers, again it’s a hundred times easier selling a product to a customer that you’ve already sold a product to, Right then getting a brand new customer that’s like that’s marketing 101 it’s a million times easier to sell a second product.
Customer get that first initial sale, what’s your five-year goal Emily, okay guys this is my last question, my 5-year goal is just to do exactly what I’m doing I want to help, 10000, people quit their job and be able to live the life that they always knew that they could and they deserve I don’t want to, people to, never be dreading going to work on a Sunday ever again for the rest of the lifestyle, truly that is what I want, i am extremely happy my businesses are doing very well, you know it’s never going to be like a financial issue for me again it’s literally just about helping people at this point if I can free 10, thousand people from corporate slavery, In five years that I would be, the happiest, ninja in the world, i got so thank you so much for our Q&A number for I hope that helps I tried to get to everyone’s answer, i got the every single question in the suit and groove so I’m really happy about that, i will post the replay of this video, in, the student groups and then again on YouTube, and in the Facebook page so everybody can re-watch it but I hope you guys enjoy joining live so I can answer your specific, questions and we will see you next time so enjoy the rest of your beautiful Sunday and I’ll see all of you and me, amazing people very, soon.
