Product Research 101
Summary
Just getting started with product research and sourcing? Stuck trying to find ideas or find that "perfect" winning product? Want to find good selling products that others are ignoring? Interested in wholesale or private label products? If you answered yes, then this book is for you. If you are an experienced seller or are looking to do arbitrage, this book will have less value as I don't discuss sourcing by arbitrage. I don't do arbitrage, so I don't teach it. This book is written for the new or struggling seller wanting to source wholesale or private label products. What you will learn: Basic steps for finding top-selling products How to generate product ideas and look for trends How to validate demand Tips for finding suppliers Analyzing data to help you pick a product It took me five months of research before I pulled the trigger on my first products to sell on Amazon. Five months and countless hours. I have pages of notes with product ideas in many different categories. Some were wholesale products, others were ideas for my own products. I had some money set aside to buy inventory. But I couldn't commit. I was looking for...not necessarily the perfect product, but, well yeah, the perfect product. Fear of choosing "wrong" was holding me back. I knew that product selection was key to success so I needed to choose right. Another part of the problem was I had bigger ideas - I wanted to create a brand and I had some ideas as to what sorts of products I would carry. But those ideas required more capital than I was willing to invest for my first product. As a result, I put so much pressure on myself to dream big and think towards the future that I did nothing!

Taleisin's Tales
Summary
Including stories from paradise and hard-won lessons in seamanship,Taleisin's Tales reflects back to the first miles Lin and Larry Pardey gained together on the second boat they built lovingly with teak carvel planking over sawn black locust frames. The book includes details from outfitting, provisioning, and final detailing during the early months Lin and Larry spent getting to know their new bluewater cruiser, as well as moments of melancholy as they let go of attachments to their first trusty boat, Seraffyn. The story takes the listener through those initial cautious 1000 coastal miles between California and the Sea of Cortez, discussing everything from sail handling to dinghy racing to the relative luxuries of bicycles and a custom-built sitztub. It reveals surprising and pleasant engagements with other sailors and locals along the Baja Peninsula. Then it launches the listener across the Pacific, sailing with the Pardeys on Taleisin's first offshore leg to French Polynesia, through the Cook Islands and Tonga, and on to New Zealand, where they eventually made their new home. If there is a lesson to be gained from listening to Taleisin's Tales, it's that slowing the pace and taking each day as it comes brings unexpected moments of clarity and joy. And that sailing across an ocean on a small boat is not easy but, with the right partner and attitude, can be beautifully rewarding.

The Mindset of Small Talk
Summary
Wouldn't it be nice to chat with anybody without having to come up with things to say? One of the nicest ladies I ever met was a school teacher. I was chatting with her on a film set once because we were using her daughter in a commercial. This lady was (and I repeat) one of the nicest people I have ever met. I think we chatted for about 30 minutes and then I never saw her again. Thirty minutes. I seriously thought that I could trust this lady with all my deepest darkest secrets. That I could call her up one day and ask her to go for coffee and she’d say yes. How could this lady make such an impression on me in such a short amount of time? Well, she had mastered the two keys you need to be a perfect small talker. These two things are revealed in my book and once you know them, everything gets so much easier. My name is Lana and I am a relationship and self-care blogger. Before I started a blog, I was a seriously introverted university student trying to get through film school without having to small-talk with my classmates at lunch. Little did I know back then, the film industry is all about networking and creating relationships with people you barely know. Once I started actually working in film, I was forced into learning how to small talk and how to get along with people. I was able to do this by observing others and stealing their techniques. People like that lovely high school teacher became my role models, I needed to do what they were doing. After years of observation, I realized that all master small-talkers have a few things in common but the biggest things are the two keys that were shown to me so elegantly by that school teacher. Once I had mastered those, no small talk conversation was a nightmare anymore. In fact, I started to enjoy them. My book will show you: The two keys you need to master small talk, and neither of them involve conversation starters How to shift your perspective on small talk so that it takes the pressure off The reason why small talk is not about entertaining others but is actually for you The difference between a good conversation starter and a bad one Small talk for people with social anxiety Small talk for introverts Small talk for dating, making friends, and networking How to improve your self esteem How to help in building confidence How to never fear the dreaded small talk conversation ever again! If you've read this far, you're already 500 words into transforming yourself into a real people person. Don't hesitate to make this simple yet super-effective change in your life. Download my book and instantly start improving your conversation skills today.

Seraffyn's Oriental Adventure
Summary
A tale of adventures, as Lin and Larry Pardey continue their voyaging on board their self-built 24'4" cutter. They cross the exotic sea that spawned Homer's tales of Ulysses' Odyssey, then sail through the strife torn Red Sea and across the typhoon tossed waters of the Bay of Bengal. In this book, fourth of the Seraffyn series, the Pardeys have reached a turning point in their lives - halfway around the world, eight years into a meandering voyage. Their routes had always been determined by the need to find the work to support their cruising life-style or the desire to see an island spoken of by some favorite writer. Now they have to decide whether to continue eastward, or turn back westward and complete the circle with a return to the place they once called home.

WASP of the Ferry Command: Women Pilots, Uncommon Deeds
Summary
WASP of the Ferry Command is the story of the women ferry pilots who flew more than nine million miles in 72 different aircraft - 115,000 pilot hours - for the Ferrying Division, Air Transport Command, during World War II. In the spring of 1942, Col. William H. Tunner lacked sufficient male pilots to move vital trainer aircraft from the factory to the training fields. Nancy Love found 28 experienced women pilots who could do the job. They, along with graduates of the army’s flight training school for women - established by Jacqueline Cochran - performed this duty until fall 1943, when manufacture of trainers ceased. In December 1943 the women ferry pilots went back to school to learn to fly high-performance WWII fighters, known as pursuits. By January 1944 they began delivering high -erformance P-51s, 47s, and 39s. Prior to D-day and beyond, P-51s were crucial to the air war over Germany. They had the range to escort B-17s and B-24s from England to Berlin and back on bombing raids that ultimately brought down the German Reich. Getting those pursuits to the docks in New Jersey for shipment abroad became these women’s primary job. Ultimately, more than 100 WASP pursuit pilots were engaged in this vital movement of aircraft. The book is published by University of North Texas Press. The audiobook will be published by University Press Audiobooks. “A compelling account of the unorthodox women who brilliantly helped sustain the vital flow of military aircraft around the country at the height of World War II.” (Dorothy Cochrane, curator of the National Air and Space Museum) “A thorough, well-researched record of the derring-do and grit of these women in trying wartime conditions.” (History.net)

The New Rich: Online Business
Summary
The New Rich: Get rich without working yourself to death The secrets of earning and accumulating money big time while enjoying the world with family! You can be rich, a millionaire, depending on how you handle things.

You will realize that a simple mind shift could spell the difference. And that's the way to start for you to get rich. Say goodbye to a life of uncertainty. Spend a few minutes perusing this material designed to help you fulfill your dreams, be the person you have always wanted, and start living a life of happiness. I will show secrets to having this life that you deserve. You have no idea how to start? Your problem is not lack of opportunities or lack of resources.

If you have already started making some strides, I will help you achieve even more. Listen on and see how you can make a difference in your life and be financially successful. The Pythagoreans, according to Dr. Isaac Watts, had a very sacred rule in life. It was their practice to evaluate all the day's activities or events before going to sleep. The evaluation was not done only once or twice but thrice. The reason, of course, is obvious - they wanted to ascertain how they fared in all their affairs, what was done wrong and what was accomplished right.
