• S3 Ep17: Tax and Accountancy with Ellis Bennett
    2024/11/14
    In this episode, I’m thrilled to welcome Ellis Bennett, a brilliant accountant who’s challenging the usual accountancy mould. We’re talking all things tax, VAT, and financial essentials for entrepreneurs and side-hustlers—perfect timing if you’re looking to wrap up the year with your finances in check.

    Ellis shares his journey of starting an accountancy firm while travelling—proving that you don’t need to stay in one place to build something successful. He’s now working with nearly 400 clients and has a fresh, no-nonsense approach to business finance that’s all about practicality and keeping you out of HMRC’s bad books.

    Here’s what we cover:

    • Ellis’s Story: How he built an accountancy business on the go, and why going against the grain has been so successful for him.
    • Starting Up Right: Good financial habits from day one are essential. We dive into why and how to get your books sorted from the start.
    • Tax and VAT Basics: If you’re an Amazon or e-commerce seller, you’ll want to listen in. Ellis breaks down VAT thresholds, when to register, and what it means for your profits.
    • Claiming Business Expenses: From mileage and home offices to coffee meetings, we chat about what can (and can’t) be claimed as a business expense.
    • Side Hustles Done Right: I say it all the time—treat it like a proper business! We talk through what you need to know about tax implications as your side income grows.
    • Tax Tools That Work: We discuss how accounting software like QuickBooks can simplify your finances, tracking your mileage, receipts, and invoices automatically.

    Ellis also gives insight into some common mistakes people make—like blending personal and business finances, not tracking receipts, and the importance of regular record-keeping. This is a must-listen if you’re growing a business or side hustle and want to stay on the right side of HMRC!

    Resources:

    • Connect with Ellis: LinkedIn - Ellis Bennett ACCA, Instagram - @EAAccountancy
    • Free Startup Bible: DM Ellis on Instagram to get his guide to setting up your business.

    Next Week: I’ll be sitting down with Russ Britton, the “Honest FBA Guy,” for a chat about Amazon FBA success and how the right mentorship has shaped his business journey.

    So grab a cuppa, tune in, and take some notes to get your business finances sorted!

  • S3 Ep12: Warren - Amazon FBA Product Sourcer Pt.1
    2024/10/10
    Welcome back to the Goodbye Poor, Hello Rich show! I’m Des Hamilton, and today’s episode is a little different – I’m recording on the go, from my car in the middle of Stanmer Park in Brighton, proving that no matter where you are, you can still get things done. Whether it’s in the woods or on the move, you’ve got to find time for your hustle! Key Points: Embrace Imperfection: Today, I’m recording from my car. It’s not about being perfect, it’s about getting things done no matter the setting. Behind-the-Scenes of the Launch: Last week, we officially launched the TikTok Shop Affiliate Mastery community (https://www.skool.com/tiktok-affiliate-mastery-1585/about), and I’ve got to be honest, it wasn’t all smooth sailing. From waitlist issues to email glitches – we’ve had our fair share of hiccups. But despite that, it’s all about persistence and moving forward. Steady Growth Wins the Race: While some of us expect that huge financial leap from 10k to 20k overnight, I’m here to remind you that growth is steady and incremental. Gratitude for My Team: Huge shoutout to Sophie at OpenSocials (https://opensocials.net/) – my social media manager who kept things ticking along during the launch. If you’re scaling your business and need help managing your socials, I highly recommend getting in touch with her! This Week's Guest: In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Warren https://www.tiktok.com/@amazonfbaproductsourcer an Amazon FBA expert who I’ve come to know really well. Now, you’d think we’d be competitors, seeing as we both train Amazon beginners, but here’s the thing – there’s room for everyone in this space. Warren’s story is brilliant. He’s in his 50s, came from a plumbing background, and he’s now thriving in the Amazon world. We talk about the importance of product sourcing, how he carved his own path, and the power of networking with people on the same journey. If you’re feeling like you're too old to start something new, Warren’s story will change your mind. Highlights: Collaboration Over Competition: Even though Warren and I offer similar services, we’re not in competition. We lean on each other for support and understand that there’s enough room for everyone to succeed in this space. The Importance of Product Sourcing: Warren shares his unique approach to product sourcing. He’s found a way to look at Amazon listings differently from the crowd and has seen incredible results by going against the grain. Learning Through Experience: Warren’s journey from plumbing to Amazon is filled with lessons about resilience, independence, and learning from each challenge. It’s a reminder that it’s never too late to shift gears and pursue something new. Tip of the Week: You’re never too old to start learning something new. I often hear from people saying they’re too old to get into Amazon or start a side hustle. But here’s the thing – there is no age limit on learning or success. I started in my 40s, Warren started in his 50s, and we’re both proof that it’s never too late. It’s not about age; it’s about mindset. What’s Coming Up Next Week: In part two of my chat with Warren, we’ll dig deeper into his product sourcing methods and how he’s developed a system that’s working brilliantly. We’ll also touch on his Amazon mentoring journey and what he’s got planned next. Trust me, you don’t want to miss it! Final Thoughts: This episode is all about showing you that no matter your age or background, you can still build something amazing if you’re willing to put in the work. Whether you’re listening to this while commuting, walking the dog, or sitting down with a cuppa, remember: steady growth beats quick wins every time. Thanks again for tuning in. By the time you’re hearing this, I’ll have been to a Ryan Adams concert, had a bit too much fun, but I’ll be back on track – ready to hit the ground running. If you’re not part of our TikTok Shop Affiliate Mastery community yet, I strongly recommend joining. It’s less than £10 a week, and people are already seeing some incredible success. https://www.skool.com/tiktok-affiliate-mastery-1585/about Special Thanks: Seller Amp – for continuing to sponsor the show.

    2024/09/26
    This one is BIG:

    In this episode of the Goodbye Poor Hello Rich Show, I take you behind the scenes of one of the most exciting ventures I’ve been involved in—TikTok Shop Affiliate Marketing. I’ll be giving you an in-depth look at how my partner Luke and I amassed over 1,300 signups for our new TikTok Shop Affiliate program in just a matter of days. I talk about the madness, the excitement, and the pure hustle that’s gone into building something that we’re certain can be life-changing for so many people.

    We’ll be diving into how this model works, the power of TikTok shop affiliates, and why I believe this is the biggest opportunity I’ve come across in my journey and the best Luke has come across in his six years of his e-commerce journey. You’ll hear about real success stories, from the trainer in our community that made £22k off one video. If you're interested in diversifying your income streams or exploring the world of affiliate marketing, you won’t want to miss this.

    Luke and I answer your burning questions about getting started, sourcing products, and what it really takes to build this as a sustainable, resilient business. Trust me, you don’t need thousands of followers to make this work - just grit, consistency and more resilience than a baby trying to grab a cookie just that little bit out of reach.

    And for those of you interested in the community, we talk about how to get on the waitlist and secure one of the first 500 spots at an insane £25 per month, locked in for life.

    This is a serious opportunity to transform your financial future. As Luke likes to say: Let’s goOoOOoo!

    Key Talking Points:

    • How Luke and I built massive anticipation for our TikTok Shop Affiliate programme.
    • Breaking down the TikTok affiliate model: what it is and why it works
    • Real-life examples of people making thousands from a single post
