Leon Vartanian shares how he transitioned from being a typical college dropout to one of the top Amazon FBA experts reaching 7 figures in income.
When COVID-19 hit the world, all businesses suffered massive losses, but e-commerce thrived. According to a study, e-commerce sales in the United States alone increased 14.2% over the preceding year, extending $870.8 billion, and 41% of those sales’ occurred on Amazon. Amazon has the largest inventory with over 12 million products listed across all of its categories and services.
Apart from making life easier for its customers, Amazon has also opened up opportunities for many people who want to sell products online. Amazon’s FBA (or Fulfilled By Amazon) program helps sellers to scale their business and reach more customers with the least amount of effort. Sellers can profit simply by listing their products while the e-commerce giant handles the rest – logistics, warehousing, order processing, and shipping.
Leon Vartanian has used Amazon FBA to scale his business. Today, he is the top Amazon FBA coach, having assisted over 100 people in creating online stores and earning more than $15,000 per month through Amazon.
Journey Of Becoming His Own Boss
Born in California, Leon always wanted to be an entrepreneur. He decided in middle school that he did not want a boss ordering him around. After being in community college for 2 years, Leon took matters into his own hands and dropped out of college while having strong feelings of not belonging in school systems.
A chance knocked on Leon’s door shortly after when he was offered a full-time position at a car dealership. This is when his journey into the world of e-commerce also began, as it was a good way to supplement his income from the comfort of his own home. The young entrepreneur began selling on eBay and Shopify in 2018. However, he realized that it wasn’t as convenient as he had hoped because he had to manually advertise and fulfill orders.
One year later, Leon transferred his online business to Amazon and began operating according to the arbitrage business model. This model, however, backfired and his account was suspended. Driven to achieve greater success, Leon completely changed his business model to Amazon FBA white label where he sold popular name-brand products without having to fulfill any orders or violate Amazon’s seller policies.
Transitioning Into The Top Amazon FBA Coach
Leon hasn’t looked back since. He has stuck with that business model and grown it to a seven-figure income. He quit his job in 2020 to focus solely on his online business. He also noticed that many people working a 9-5 job want to replace it with their own business but lack the necessary skills or are misled with the wrong information. In 2021, he began providing 1-on-1 coaching to show people how to sell on Amazon using the proper methods without having to work outside of a home office space or violating Amazon’s terms of service.
Leon has been recommended as “the best” because he genuinely cares about his clients’ success rather than their money for his program. He surmises, “You have to sacrifice things you do want to do and be disciplined to do things you don’t want to do, and trust in the process and not be worried too much about how long it takes.”
