Welcome
I’m Nina, creator of Project Goldilocks. If you want to balance a workload you create with the life you want, this page is for you.
Before I adopted the Goldilocks lifestyle, I was barely scraping by working for a nonprofit and drowning in student loan debt. Even though I loved my job, I wished I didn’t have to worry about paying for groceries or being able to afford a family vacation.
Then I saw a Facebook post about a guy who quit his job and worked from home by selling products on Amazon. I thought, “If he can do that, so can I.” And that became my mantra for my journey into importing!
It works like this
With Fulfilment By Amazon (FBA), Amazon does most of the work for you. You find the right product and send it to Amazon’s warehouses. They take care of the selling, shipping, returns, customer service and all the other ecommerce elements you don’t want to deal with. Then you sit back and get a paycheck from Amazon every couple weeks!
Obviously there are a few more details, but that’s the jist. If I can do that, so can you.
Enrollment is currently closed for my online course, the FBA Life Launchpad, but if you want to be notified of the next free, live webinar date, sign up for emails!
She recently had a baby and wants to quit her 9-5 job to raise her family as a stay at home mom.
She has a full workload and little free time, but wants some side money to pay off student loans.
She doesn’t want to spend her life in a cubicle, but needs the passive income to travel the world.
Or maybe you have a completely different reason for seeking out Project Goldilocks. FBA changed my life, and it might be the tool that can change yours, too.
The best part is YOU get to create the perfect balance in your life: not too much work, not too much play, but just the right amount to feel fulfilled and secure.
What FBA Is Not
It’s NOT a sales job. I have zero background in business and I don’t do any direct selling. Amazon takes a percentage of your product’s sale price. In exchange, they handle the business side of things like payments, shipping, returns and customer service. Not to mention all of your potential customers are already on Amazon, the world’s largest retailer.
It’s NOT a get rich quick gimmick. Believe me, I researched every possible option for making money at home. Taking online surveys, selling makeup, or spending my evenings working for a call center just wasn’t going to cut it. With FBA, you run your own business, you are your own boss, and you get real income.
It’s NOT 100% passive. It’s true I make money in my sleep, but I still average a few hours a week working from my laptop, and more when launching a new product. Importing requires researching the right product, contacting Chinese suppliers, and navigating the Amazon Seller Central platform. If I can do that, so can you!
I appreciate you
I’m here for you as a guide and a friend as you begin your journey.
Hearing your stories, whether they are successes or challenges, is the best part of the job. I will try to help whenever possible. Being a part of Project Goldilocks is an experience best when shared. I certainly don’t pretend to know everything about importing, and there’s plenty we can learn from each other. Let’s do this together!
I firmly believe that I’m not special, I just sought out a solution to a problem in my life and put in the effort to fix it. There are plenty of others just like me, and I’m excited to share what I’ve learned.
