Ep.64 How to Create a Transformational Amazon Business with Yanik Silver from Maverick 1000

Welcome to the Sprint to Profit Podcast for Amazon Sellers. In this episode, we are going to be speaking with a mentor of ours, Yanik Silver. Yanik is the author of Evolved Enterprise and founder of Maverick 1000. Today’s topic is an important topic: creating business that actually impacts the world around you in a positive way so that you can build a business that is transformational and not just transactional.

Yanik talks about what it means to be transformational and transcendent within your business and how that can change you and your business for the better. While there may be a horrible stigma around Amazon and it’s impact on the environment and society, this doesn’t mean that you (as an Amazon seller) can’t make a difference.
