    Why Most Amazon Sellers Quit Too Soon — Mindset, Perseverance & Real Talk w/ Ian MacIntyre | Marketplace Mavericks Ep. 10
    Jun 25 2025
    Most Amazon sellers quit too soon — not because they lack opportunity, but because they lack the right mindset and realistic expectations. In this episode of Marketplace Mavericks, Ian MacIntyre joins us to share how he battled through injuries, fear, debt, and massive self-doubt to build a thriving Amazon business. Ian drops real talk on why patience, community, and resilience matter more than flashy "orange bar" screenshots on social media. If you’re struggling to stay motivated, doubting your buys, or wondering whether you should keep going — this episode is for you. In this episode: ✅ How Ian overcame physical setbacks & financial struggles to grow a 6-figure/month OA business ✅ Why your first 90 days (and first Q4) are the hardest — and how to push through ✅ How to set the right goals so you don’t quit too early ✅ The trap of “comparisonitis” and why orange bars can lie ✅ Why building community & sharing knowledge matters ✅ Mindset hacks for overcoming fear, doubt & burnout …and so much more! This is an episode every seller should bookmark & re-listen to when motivation gets low. 📩 Have a question for the Mavericks?
