Rich from Anywhere Founders S. Blackburn and S. Johnson on Online Marketing, E-Commerce and Choosing a Business Coach
S. Blackburn and S. Johnson are the founders of Rich from Anywhere, a coaching company that teaches online marketing and e-commerce to clients worldwide. In this episode of Your Brand Amplified, they tell Anika Jackson how they left the music industry, recovered from a failed first Amazon store and moved from running a marketing agency to coaching. Their main advice: mentorship speeds up results, but choose a coaching program carefully.
How did the Rich from Anywhere founders get started in online marketing?
Blackburn and Johnson came from the music industry and faced financial challenges early on. Their first Amazon store was shut down over copyright issues, and they shifted to other platforms, including Shopify. They went on to run a marketing agency before founding a coaching company that now works with thousands of clients worldwide.
How do you choose a legitimate business coaching program?
The founders warn that scams are common in online business coaching. They advise choosing genuine programs that deliver substantial value beyond what the contract terms require.
What results do they report for coaching clients?
Blackburn and Johnson say personalized mentorship helps clients grow faster and avoid costly mistakes. They report that some clients have increased their monthly income from $900 to more than $50,000 within six months. Individual results vary.
Key takeaways
- A failed first store, in their case an Amazon shop closed over copyright issues, can be a reason to change platforms rather than quit.
- Mentorship can shorten the learning curve and help new sellers avoid expensive mistakes.
- Vet coaching programs carefully; look for value beyond the contract terms and watch for scams.
Income figures are results reported by the guests and are not typical or guaranteed. This is not financial advice.
