006 : Bob Willey – Old School Amazon FBA

I am going to call Bob "Mr. Original FBA". He literally was one of the first sellers on FBA and is the founder of the massively popular Yahoo FBA group in August 2008. He really has seen the metamorphosis of the eCommerce world and especially Amazons growth. Bob is forever sourcing products for his rapidly expanding FBA business while managing several groups with more than 15,000 members. Bob was Scanpower's Customer Service Team (Yes he was the support team) Bob is everywhere! Bob talks about buying from 888 lots, BidonFusion.com, Retail Arbitrage and online Arbitrage, he is always buying! Bob's coaching business has also taken off and finally he has added some much needed help where he has developed a process to move volumes of products. Bob's greatest strength is his contagious enthusiasm, it is really catchy!
