What does it take to push through and overcome challenges in life and business? Do you have a plan to face adversity head on or will you cross that bridge when you get to it? On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear from innovator and entrepreneur Mark Aramli. In his conversation with Jeremy, Mark opens up about selling his product on Amazon, why he feels conflicted using Amazon, what it takes to keep knock-offs at bay, how to overcome challenges, and much more. You don’t want to miss a minute of this fascinating episode featuring Mark’s story!

How would you respond if your businesses potential was limited by a distributor? You’d cut that distributor out, right? What if that distributor was Amazon? They are hard to cut out when they own a significant portion of the ecommerce marketplace! Mark Aramli feels the tension between life as an Amazon customer and an Amazon merchant. He loves the simplicity and ease of use that Amazon brings its customers, but he finds significant challenges working as one of their merchants. With this tension in mind – Mark encourages ecommerce sellers to avoid depending on Amazon for any sizeable portion of their sales.

Difficulty with Amazon isn’t the only place that Mark has had to face and overcome challenges in his career. Back when BedJet was inching closer and closer to its launch date, Mark had to have a difficult conversation with his then fiance. It turns out that Mark’s wedding date and the rapidly approaching launch date of BedJet were too close to make anyone happy – the wedding had to be rescheduled. While Mark’s soon-to-be bride wasn’t happy – she powered through the challenge and supported Mark. As a sign of his gratitude – Mark was able to give his wife the wedding of her dreams. What can you learn from Mark’s story?
