What you will learn:

Are you wondering what it's like to sell a product on Amazon and run an Amazon business? 

Mona will share her transition from lawyer to location-independent entrepreneur and give you an overview of her process of launching a successful Amazon product and ecommerce business 3 years ago from right here in the walls of Hubud. Her wellness brand now has been featured in Health Magazine, Headline News, the Australian Financial Review, and Wirecutter, to name a few. From her long experience as a seller, she will give you an overview of what's involved so you can see if it's right for you. Before people commit to the process, they want to know: is this for me? What's the initial investment? What are all the basic components i need to know or learn about selling on Amazon? What are the potential upsides and downsides? How do I know what product to sell? How much of a time commitment is it? Do I have to have experience in this? Mona will share an overview and give you tips on launching a product as well as the many changes in the ecommerce and Amazon marketplace over the last 2 years. This talk is for those who are considering launching an Amazon business on the side or as their full-time venture at some point as only the basics will be covered! She will also cover how this type of business can create time and money for you to pursue other passions.
