    #1160: Why Would Anyone Pay $40 on Amazon for a $20 Walmart Item?
    May 7 2026

    Some of the smartest people Robin Joy coaches still can't pull the trigger. They're stuck in saver mode when the business needs them in builder mode.

    Brian and Robin Joy unpack the mindset shift that separates the sellers who get going from the ones who keep studying. Why customers happily pay more on Amazon. Why Brian wouldn't drive to Walmart to save money but goes all day to make money. And the math behind the catalog: out of 1.4 billion ASINs, the sweet spot is the 2.4 million selling 50 to 199 units a month. That's the corner big corporations can't be bothered with. That's where we live.

    The cure for analysis paralysis isn't more analysis. It's a shipment.

    Let's go test more ASINs.
