The Amazing Seller
About: Hosted by Scott Voelker, The Amazing Seller launched in February 2014 and now has over 9 million downloads.
According to Voelker, he started the podcast because (back in the day) he couldn’t find any podcasts that focused on Amazon FBA for Private Labelers:
“I would always look for any content that could keep me motivated, but also give me tips and nuggets to try in my own business. So, I decided to create the show that I wanted to listen to. I wanted to find sellers that were doing well and interview them. I wanted to share my results with others to attract others to share their story.”
