What does it take to walk away from a stable career, bet on Amazon FBA, and build a multiple seven-figure business in the Amazon US marketplace from Singapore? In this episode, Bradley Sutton sits down with Clarence Cheang of TheFBABros to unpack the mindset, strategy, and data-driven systems that have driven his Amazon journey. Clarence shares how he went from a civil engineer working on Singapore’s infrastructure projects to a full-time entrepreneur after setting a clear goal: to make his side hustle outperform his day job income for 6 straight months.

Clarence breaks down the product research process that helped him discover one of his breakthrough products: a Japanese egg pan that went on to generate over $1 million in lifetime sales. Instead of blindly chasing trends, he uses a highly analytical process built around 23 data points, competitor keyword weaknesses, and Helium 10 Cerebro research. His approach focuses on finding products where competitors may be making strong revenue but are weak in PPC, keyword ranking, or listing optimization.

The conversation also dives into how AI is changing the way sellers research, launch, and scale. Clarence explains how AI can reduce product validation from one or two hours down to just minutes, while still requiring human judgment to verify opportunities. He also shares ideas around AI agents, Helium 10 data, bundling opportunities, and using massive short-form video output to drive external traffic from TikTok to Amazon.

One of the biggest “wait, what?” moments comes when Clarence reveals his 50 auto campaign launch strategy. Instead of relying on one auto campaign, he separates match types, identifies what works, and duplicates winning campaigns across different bid levels to let Amazon find converting placements at scale. His message is clear: Amazon is still full of opportunity for sellers who are willing to use data, move fast, test aggressively, and serve customers better than the competition. For any seller wondering if it is too late to start or scale, Clarence’s story is a reminder that your next breakthrough may not come from luck — it may come from discipline, research, and the courage to take action before you feel fully ready.

What does it really take to stay profitable after more than two decades in e-commerce? In this episode, Bradley Sutton welcomes back Rolando Rosas, a seven-figure seller with 25 years of online selling experience, to talk about the less glamorous but absolutely critical side of running a long-term Amazon business: operations, inventory, cash flow, shipping, and knowing your numbers.

Rolando shares how his e-commerce journey began in 2002, after the tech bubble burst, with his own website and Google AdWords, before expanding to Amazon, Walmart, eBay, and other channels. Today, Amazon makes up the majority of his revenue, but he explains why sellers should not rely on one growth lever alone. As markets shift, especially in B2B and IT-related categories, sellers need to pay close attention to profitability and not just top-line sales.

One of the biggest lessons from the episode is that great marketing cannot save weak operations. Rolando breaks down why inventory mismanagement can sink even large companies, how MFN (Multi-channel Fulfillment) can help certain sellers reduce cash flow pressure, and why treating shipping as a shared cost rather than a simple expense can add meaningful profit back into the business. He also explains how sellers should approach price increases by understanding margins, fees, categories, and customer behavior.

The episode also dives into practical AI workflows for e-commerce sellers. Rolando explains why sellers should not let AI handle messy data from start to finish, and instead should feed it clean, structured reports for more reliable analysis. From turning screenshots into spreadsheets to using AI to summarize business data, his message is clear: AI can save time, but only when paired with smart systems and human judgment. The big takeaway? Stay curious, think bigger, and keep looking for the hidden levers that can protect your profit.

Wait! Before you dive in… this is part 2 of a 2-part series, so don’t be that person who starts a movie halfway through and asks what’s going on. Go watch/listen to part 1 on the AM/PM Podcast first, where Bradley breaks down the AI and product research strategies that set up this Maldives Honeymoon launch strategy: https://h10.me/am526

In this special episode of the Serious Sellers Podcast, Bradley Sutton returns to the Maldives for episode 750 and breaks down his latest “Maldives Honeymoon” launch strategy. This time, he shares the exact tactics he recently tested to get new products to page one for multiple keywords in less than five days. From keyword research to listing optimization, this episode is packed with launch strategies for Amazon sellers who want to give their products the strongest possible start.

Bradley explains why a successful launch begins before PPC campaigns ever go live. Sellers need to study competitor reviews, analyze TikTok Shop reviews, look at Rufus questions (Quick note: Rufus is now rebranded as Alexa for Shopping), and understand what kind of images are working in their niche. He also walks through several ways to build a stronger keyword list, including Cerebro, Brand Analytics, Search Query Performance, historical keyword research, opportunity keywords, competitor PPC data, Etsy keywords, frequently bought together products, and Spanish-language keyword indexing.

One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is the importance of testing Amazon’s understanding of your product before launch. Bradley shares how Amazon initially misunderstood two new products he launched, which caused poor impressions and weak Rufus visibility. By sending relevancy signals and checking Amazon Recommended Rank keywords, he helped Amazon better understand the products, leading to a major increase in PPC impressions and faster keyword rankings.



Bradley also covers launch execution, including how to choose keywords you have the “right to win,” set up exact match launch campaigns, use discounts strategically, monitor CPR numbers, activate alerts, and drive outside traffic through TikTok Shop creators. But the episode ends with a powerful personal reminder: while business growth matters, entrepreneurs should not lose sight of family and time. The strongest launch strategy may help you win on Amazon, but the strongest life strategy is making sure you do not miss the moments you can never get back.

In this episode of the Serious Sellers Podcast, Bradley Sutton welcomes Andrew Bell to talk about the real Amazon operator experience behind his AI and listing optimization expertise. Andrew shares his journey from growing up in small-town Indiana and studying ancient Greek and preaching to eventually diving deep into business, SEO, Amazon strategy, and AI-powered workflows.

Andrew breaks down how he helped Touch of Class, a niche home decor brand, grow from around $100,000 annually on Amazon to $7 million per year. He explains how he used Freedom Ticket, Helium 10 tools, keyword research, listing optimization, FBA, competitor tracking, and category-level keyword lists to turn thousands of niche products into a much stronger Amazon catalog. He also shares how the Amazon Brand Store became a major growth driver, with around $1 million in sales coming through store activity after treating it like an SEO page that could rank on Google.

Bradley and Andrew also dive into the relationship between Amazon SEO, PPC, and Rufus, now Alexa for Shopping. Andrew explains why keywords still matter, but sellers also need to optimize for customer intent, use cases, benefits, pricing transparency, and the questions shoppers are asking. He believes Rufus and traditional Amazon search are connected, meaning sellers should not ignore either side when building listings.

The episode closes with practical AI strategies sellers can use now, including using ChatGPT or Claude to organize Helium 10 keyword lists by intent, structure PPC campaigns, and analyze search term reports. For Amazon sellers trying to future-proof their listings, this episode is a reminder that growth comes from combining strong fundamentals with new AI-driven workflows.

What does it take to build a seven-figure Amazon business from Eastern Europe? In this episode, Bradley Sutton travels to Sofia, Bulgaria, to speak with experienced sellers from Bulgaria and Romania who have built successful brands across Amazon Europe and the U.S. marketplace. From workwear and cosmetics to pet supplements and ranking services, these sellers share how they found opportunities, scaled their businesses, and adapted as Amazon continued to evolve.

The first story follows Iliyan Ivanov, a seller who started in advertising and eventually turned local workwear demand into a multi-million-euro Amazon brand. He explains how starting early in Amazon Europe gave his listings maturity, how Germany became his top marketplace, and how keyword research helped uncover unexpected seasonal demand around Germany’s carnival season. He also shares how tools like Cerebro and Managed Refund Services helped his team with listing strategy, keyword targeting, and recovering money from Amazon reimbursement opportunities.

Next, Bradley talks with another Bulgarian seller, Milcho Vasilkov, who used product research to enter categories he was not personally connected to, including maternity products, cosmetics, grocery, and pet supplements. His story highlights why sellers do not always need to be passionate users of their own products to succeed. Instead, he focuses on demand, customer behavior, marketplace fit, and smart inventory timing. He also shares Prime Day strategies for Europe, including building keyword position ahead of major events, using account managers for top deals, and extending promotional momentum after Prime Day.

The final guest brings a Romanian seller, Marcel Marculescu’s perspective on selling in the U.S. marketplace, and how Amazon ranking has changed over the years. After early product failures, he built a seven-figure Amazon business and now focuses on more sustainable launch and ranking strategies. He discusses using Vine, PPC, external traffic signals, keyword research, and Rufus optimization to help listings perform in today’s Amazon ecosystem. The episode closes with a powerful reminder for sellers: success does not come from a single hack or a single marketplace, but from adapting early, watching the data, and building strategies that can survive the next Amazon change.
