You may even want to learn about a fellow students experience.

So let us now delve into all of that!

Who Is Success With Sam?

Success with Sam is the brand name and respective YouTube channel of an online and United Kingdom-based entrepreneur called Sam.

Success with Sam YouTube Channel

Sam runs multiple multi-million revenue eBay stores focused on various different niches, which is where he has found a lot of success.

As such, he is a huge advocate of building niche specific eBay stores based on evergreen products that require repeat purchase from customers.

He also is keen to express the importance of finding reputable suppliers and building long term relationships.

It is this model that forms as the premise of his training.

On top of this, Sam runs and is growing a highly popular YouTube channel (Success with Sam) that has just under 30k subs (at time of writing).

He publishes almost daily videos on all things e-commerce. Mostly eBay related content and the benefits of setting up and selling through this platform.

Though, he does recommend Shopify and Amazon as a means of scaling and creating a more future-proof brand.

While he does train and suggest dropshipping as a means of product sourcing and fulfillment, he is also a strong proponent of importing goods from China and offering fast delivery turn around times and stellar customer service.

Naturally one would ask why somebody making so much money through eBay would need to create a course.

Having followed him for some time, I believe it is clear to see that he has done so as a means of diversification – a way to protect himself should Sam’s eBay business take a downturn due to factors outside of his control (such as the recent pandemic).

I have been following Sam’s YouTube channel for quite a while now.

I routinely learn new tips and suggestions from his new content, which is based on a lot of research and his experience.

Personally, I love the transparency of the channel and the fact that you see inside his stores (live screen shares), earnings, sales numbers, and daily processes.

Why Did I Sign Up To Project eBay?

I signed up to project eBay to learn from a seasoned full-time eBay business owner and to leverage his systems and processes.

I have actually been running an eBay business on the side since 2013.

It made me some extra and ‘fun’ money, but if never managed to scale it into a full time income (in of itself).

I mostly sold used items, stuff I no longer required and things I managed to find at thrift stores and on same at retail stores.

But then I stumbled across the Success with Sam YouTube channel and it instantly struck where I could take my store, and why it was only making a couple of hundred each month.

I saw the potential in building long-term relationships with suppliers and selling in demand evergreen products.

But I didn’t know how to go about it, what to consider and how to mitigate risk.

That’s why I signed up to project eBay.

To save money, time and to ensure I was going about the transition in my store the right way.

My Personal Experiences

I got started right away since enrolling in the course. Time is of the essence.

Since then, I have personally managed to source and import products that cost me as little as 0.02 a unit and that I am now selling at 1-1.5 a unit. My margins are huge and I’m making daily sales from repeat customers.

Here are the boxes that were delivered from China in under 7 days:

Making that first order on Alibaba certainly was a bit scary, but I am now much more confident on contacting and negotiating.

Now it’s just a matter of sourcing more products and reinvesting profit!

But since signup, the course has already paid back for itself in sales – but it’s what it saves you in costly errors and mistakes where I see some of the real benefit.
