THE SELLER ACADEMY MASTERCLASS
Step-by-Step Training on how to build a Massively Successful Amazon Business as a Canadian
THERE’S WAY TOO MUCH AMAZON TRAINING ON THE INTERNET. THATS WHY I CREATED A PERSONALIZED LEARNING EXPERIENCE SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU.
YOU GET EXACTLY THE INFORMATION YOU NEED, AND WITHOUT THE NOISE.
So you'd like to start selling on Amazon? Great!
Amazon FBA is the best way for the average Canadian to build their own business (even from scratch), but the process for getting started can feel daunting.
I'll help you cut through the confusion—to not only learn how to properly plan and launch your Amazon FBA business, but make sure you're successful too - With ongoing mentoring via our Private Mastermind.
In The Seller Academy Masterclass, I'll walk you step-by-step through the entire process of launching and scaling a highly successful Amazon FBA business.
With videos (that aren't too long) and examples along the way, you'll have your Amazon business up and running in no time, so you can start growing and become your own boss (or create a side income)
I've been selling on Amazon since 2014. But I didn't stop there.
I founded a community of Canadian Amazon sellers in 2015 and it's grown every year since. In fact, as of 2021, we have well over 10,000 Canadian entrepreneurs!
I'm also the author of the best selling eBook How to Sell on Amazon from Canada which is consistently ranked #1 in its category on Amazon.
Throughout the course of creating, launching, and marketing thousands of products on Amazon, I've learned a lot about what works and what doesn't. I know how to grow a business from scratch, take an existing business to the next level and which successes can and can't be replicated.
And over the past few years, I've applied a lot of what I've learned to help thousands of Canadians get up and running on Amazon.
But in the process, I've also heard from many of those sellers that they need more help. They need guidance launching and marketing their business on Amazon. They need a way to ask questions of other Amazon sellers. They need someone who's been there and done it to help guide them through the whole process.
That's why I created The Seller Academy Masterclass to help aspiring Amazon sellers learn from my successes—and failures.
The Seller Academy Masterclass gives you everything you need to start your Amazon business successfully, including technical help, multiple strategies to find products to sell, and access to a private community of other Amazon sellers ready and willing to share their advice with you.
I update the course regularly, and improve things based on user feedback. I also add additional content and new materials - at no upcharge to existing students. It's the course that keeps on getting better with time.
To date, we have hundreds of students enrolled in the Seller Academy Masterclass. And THEIR success speaks for the quality of the training - IT PRODUCES RESULTS!
Latest Success Stories:
I registered my business and joined Amazon in June of this year. Had my first and only sale with FBM in June to test out the market while I’m waiting for my FBA items to become active. Had my first FBA sale in July mainly doing OA and RA while I was waiting for wholesale suppliers to give me approval to sell their products. FYI, I’m not approved to sell any products on gated categories. The rest is history. I just hit 100k and sales yesterday and just got ungated to sell toys today and still waiting to get ungated on grocery and topicals. - Empoy L.
I call this day and also this weekend the happiest and best being an Amazon seller, it has been lot of work to find those Sku's and a lot of money invested, wins and loses, those nights learning and researching are paying off, i do that even when I'm tired after my full time job and I'm learning how to automize my business using 3pl and all the boundaries that FBA can offer, happy holiday season and wish you a lot of success stories
"Hope you are doing well. I know you dont know every single student but I am a part of your seller academy. Ive been selling FBA for the past 4 months doing just RA/OA and I hit my first 5k in September. I sell only on .ca" -Rakhee M.

The Seller Academy Masterclass is more than just a course. It's a community of like-minded entrepreneurs that work together to help each other succeed.
Upon signup, you get unlimited access to all of the course materials, and 24/7 support via our Private Mastermind Group.
My primary goal is to help you succeed. There are no upsells.
Because I'm not a Guru! Or an Internet Marketer.
I sell on Amazon myself and teach others how to do the same.
Thus, I'm always up to date on the latest trends and walk the talk.
Over the years, I've implemented every aspect of the training I teach into my own Amazon business. I run all of my own marketing and advertising, and manage other companies accounts as well.
Perhaps what makes us so unique is that this is the only training on the planet that covers selling on Amazon with a uniquely Canadian perspective.
I'm Canadian and so are all of my students.
You're billed in Canadian dollars at a reasonable price (Less than 1/10 of what others charge for all of the content you'll receive)

And Duncan, thanks for creating this.....
Renee Els Buys I’ve been wanting to start selling on Amazon.ca for a couple of months now but can’t seem to find the courage to just take the leap. Joined.... to hopefully find the some inspiration to stop procrastinating and just get going😬
Tayyaab Tanveer I've been following now for the better part of this quarter. I've started with the basics such as RA and now I'm moving on to sourcing - bigger and better just got one of my largest shipments today :)

Ana G. Robillard Congrats! I found you by searching! And thank God because i have so many quesrions.....I can have my answers. Really good vibe too!
Evelyn Townsend I was trying to find a Canadian version of everything I was reading online about Amazon sellers. Duncan was the first and so far only one to give a Canadian perspective – and more than that accurate information. I also appreciate how the group will help when someone has an issue. Thanks Duncan!
Sanson Paul Found you on YouTube. So good to find a fellow Canadian. Thanks for all you do.
Jill Conyers It great that’s it’s for Canadians, but the best thing is the positive nature of the group. You don’t need to be afraid of asking “dumb” questions, as you’re not going to get torn apart (as can happen on some other groups).
Rebbecca Madge I love your story and ideally that’s my goal, leave my salary job and do FBA full time!

"I can’t thank you enough. I was worried about launching my business in Q1 but it turned out to be a smashing success! Your course was the best money ever spent. When I last emailed you a couple weeks ago my sales were just over $1,500/week. Not bad for just starting out. Now not even 2 weeks into February my sales have skyrocketed to $5K per week with Valentines Day sales leading the way. This is building way faster than I could ever expected and I’m truly struggling to balance this with my day job. Thanks so much once again!!" -Chuck
