How I made $1,169.65 from one phone call


This week's newsletter is a case study on one of my profitable brands, showing you:

• How I made $1,169.65 from one phone call

• The software I used to get a 40x ROI

• How you can duplicate the process in minutes

Buckle up, because this week's edition will be the most valuable one yet.


Finding The Brand

The brand I'll be highlighting is Lares.

It took me roughly 60 seconds to find them using SmartScout.

First, I fired up the Brands tool inside SmartScout.

Next, I set up a few simple filters:

Primary Category: Automotive

Monthly Revenue: $5,000-$500,000

Avg. FBA Sellers: Min. 2

These filters generated a targeted shortlist of 292 brands.

One of the brands on that shortlist was Lares.


Contacting The Brand

I recorded my call with the brand to show you how simple these conversations can be.

The clip also includes me talking through my SmartScout research so you know exactly which data points to pay attention to.

You can watch the 5 minute clip by clicking here.


The Results

They emailed me a couple days later with wholesale account approval.

I immediately placed an order for their top 3 products.

Here's exactly how much money I made:

Total profit: $1,169.65

Average margin: 17.66%

Average ROI: 35.27%

All of this from one phone call.


Your Turn

I pay $29/month for SmartScout's Basics plan which gives me access to the Brands tool.

That means this one deal that took 60 seconds of effort to find and 5 minutes to call paid for over 40 months of SmartScout.

You don't need to be a genius to see the obvious ROI here.

You can get 25% off your first 3 months of SmartScout by clicking this link OR using code COREY25 at checkout.
