Joes' First Business came off the back of being homeless in 2017 in which he bought, refurbished and resold iPhones and other electronics on Facebook Marketplace. It wasn't until May 2018 when he discovered his current Business model 'Amazon FBA' (Fulfilment by Amazon).
"I was spending hours driving up and down the country to buy products to resell on Facebook Marketplace," Joe explained.
"Then I heard about Amazon FBA. When I realised, I could sell products in bulk on Amazon, and they would take care of Order fulfilment, Storage, Shipping and Customer Service. The game changed for me.
"I went from flipping 5-10 products a day on Facebook Marketplace to selling over 10,000+ units a month on Amazon in under a year, whilst managing my entire business online."
The young entrepreneurs Business specialises in sourcing and bulk buying everyday essential products from wholesalers and manufacturers across the world to resell on Amazon for a profit.
"By February 2019, I had scaled the Business to £50,000 a month in revenue using only UK wholesalers, Once I expanded my product research internationally, that's when things started to get crazy.
"Now in September 2022, our sales have exceeded and maintained above £200,000 a month on a consistent monthly basis."
Documenting his entire journey from homelessness to Business success, Joe has been able to amass a large combined social media following of over 500,000 people that look to take advantage of his Amazon FBA mentorship programme, another one of Joes' successful Business ventures.
"My social media presence was growing by thousands every single day, my inbox was filled with hundreds of people daily, asking me to teach them how to sell on Amazon." Joe, 22, explained.
"So, in July 2021, I built and launched my education company 'TheEcomClub' which is home to 'The Gateway to FBA Mentorship programme'. An online step by step programme designed to help ordinary people Setup, Build and Scale their own Amazon FBA Business in just 30 days' time teaching them my personally proven strategies".
Joes' mentorship programme has already assisted over 2,100 people to start successfully selling on Amazon since July last year with some of the top students scaling to over £20,000 a month in revenue.
"By no means is Amazon FBA a 'Get rich quick scheme' however with commitment and hard work, it can absolutely make you between £3,000 - £10,000 a month quite easily alongside other full-time commitments.
"The programme has produced student results like this month in month out, my strategies are proven to work, it just takes a little persistence." Said Joe.
The serial entrepreneur expressed his desire to build and scale his own Private Label brands to sell on Amazon, with them plans already underway, he expects to have multiple Branded product lines brought to market by summer 2023 with global expansion opportunities.
"Private label brands are where the scalability is in terms of building a sellable asset. Building brands provide longevity and of course build an asset that can be listed for acquisition in the long term.
"My main focus is to continue scaling my Businesses, whilst diversifying my portfolio across other start-ups and property development." Joe disclosed.
