GFA is truly a valuable community and continuously evolving. Thanks Mike!DARWIN LAM
Hi I’m Daniel From Singapore Amazon Ecommerce seller. First time at CBS 2018. Excited to be here – Mike with me – asked me to say some words. The event is great. Amount of content for the any ecommerce seller should come here, experience the content, the food, teh event. I have nothing but great words for Mike and his team and the amount of hard work they put into this event, see you at next year’s CBS 2019.DAniel
An amazing hands on book for starting a company, sourcing a product, launching it through Amazon FBA. It's an easy read and goes through the entire process as a story, and identifies potential problems on the way. Mike has years of experience from Amazon FBA, forming companies and sourcing from China. Highly recommend for anyone considering new business ventures!Amazon Customer
I bought the digital version of this book. I personally think this is a decent book for the initial concepts of Amazon eCommerce and FBA. This book helps you on running an amazon FBA eCommerce store, Shopify stores, and any type of eCommerce business. In this book you learn everything that goes into a front end sales funnel, back-end fulfillment funnel, marketing, re-targeting, advertising, market research, product research, price research, suppliers, building ideas for niches/products. There are no sale pitches in this book, only pure actionable content. This book will give you all the tools to take action if you're serious about making your Amazon eCommerce work. It can't do anything for you though if you sit around and let it gather dust. Xing Gao
Really helped on how to do business with Amazon. Thank you Mike for sharing your thoughts.Chester Sy
Why Get a Power Hour?
With a Power Hour, Michael Michelini, along with one other specialist, will help you get things back on track. They’ll walk through anything you may have concerns about, and even identify things you may not have known were broken.Here's Michael himself to tell you why you should get a Power Hour:
Before the Power Hour, you’ll define your goals, content, and targeting for us to review. This helps us make sure the right specialist joins Michael on the call.
Once that’s taken care of, we’ll set a time to go over anything you’d like to talk about. We’ll record both the audio and any shared screens so you can have a copy of the whole thing after it’s done.
With this power hour, you can leverage Michael’s 20 years of experience and save yourself weeks or months of making mistakes because of a misguided strategy
I want to give a big thanks to Mike for having me here and also for doing the e-commerce project together. It was an awesome, really great experience, I of course I learned a lot about doing e-commerce business. This is my first e-commerce or FBA business in fact and also doing business in China in general.
I learned a lot on how to being organized or working with people 24/7 all through the internet. We had Freelancers and VA’s and yeah, it requires a totally new set of skills. So it was, sometimes, it’s overwhelming to be honest, but we got through a lot of the obstacles and I was very happy when we had our first product on Amazon selling and yeah, I just think it was amazing.
Dear Mike, I just finished your book, E-Commerce Gladiator. My we have certainly come a long way from our days in the sourcing business. While I have retired from the business world and am taking it (sorta) easy, you have grown in leaps and bounds. I'm proud of you. The book is clearly written and a wonderful resource and guide for anyone interested in e-commerce. Further, I very much enjoyed the format it was written in, showing that nothing comes easy, and organization is of upmost importance. And that no matter how much you try to plan, problems do arise. It is a step by step guide and a genesis of an online business. Great work. It also seems to me (or maybe not) that some/many of the points you make, you and I had discussed in the passed. So I guess that much of the "stuff" we talked about actually did make an impression. I'm glad it did. As I said above, I'm proud of the man and businessman you have become.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It!
Here’s what other’s have said on previous sessions with Mike!When I first arrived in China Mike was a huge help to me – gave me great advice for getting connected to startups and customers in the China business community.
Mike is THE GUY for the Asia startup scene and an expert in generating business leads in China. Do yourself a favor and get some advice from Mike.
"Was an invaluable experience, Mike helped guide me to the best decision for me and my companies, and the resources available in China and Hong Kong."
It was great to talk to you too! Yes, the information you provided was invaluable! Thank you so much for the introductions, I will follow up on them. Thank you for the contract, it's greatly appreciated! I'll be sure to keep it to myself. I look forward to joining the community of individuals trading in Asia!
Mike was critical in helping me understand business culture in China. In our chat, he shared dozens of stories from his experiences. I would recommend speaking with Mike for anyone who needs to understand Chinese social interactions, especially in the import/export and e-commerce business.
Michael quickly and efficiently helped my organization get on the ground in Shanghai. We are planning an event and Michael’s experience has been very valuable in making everything go smoothly. He is now involved with our social media marketing and his company is sponsoring our event.
Michael was introduced to me by a web design partner in Shanghai and since arriving to Shenzhen, he has been instrumental in connecting me with the right people – people that I can trust. He is no doubt one of the most visible and connected expats in Shenzhen.
Mike is THE guy to talk with for insights about China. I had great time talking to him and share business insights as fellow entrepreneur. He has been VERY helpful and I’m keen on working together with him on future projects! He defiantly should be your #1 guy for entering the Chinese market. His knowledge is invaluable!
Michael is thoughtful and supportive. Recently, we had meeting with Michael…even though Michael was caught between two other phone call/meetings. He will willing to make time, and answered our questions…. A true leader, is one that in times of absolute conflict, can keep his cool… thumbs up Michael!!

I always found him insightful, honest, with great experiences and great sense of humor. His work ethic is the same as his Twitter follower count: beyond reproach.
Michael’s knowledge of doing business and startups in China is right on point. He answered my questions with anecdotes/examples from his first-hand experience, which were not only relevant but also very entertaining!
It was good to talk to you and I was very pleased with what I got out of our call. I will certainly be in touch as soon as I can. I don’t disagree that marketing is a key element and I take a great interest in it but I’m happy to stand back and let experts drive that. Maybe my enquiry was a little premature but it was motivated by the opportunity I have when I’m in China on other business. My experience with non-technical team members is that they can get quickly turned off if the development completion keeps creeping out and out. My vision is a great product and great marketing to realise it’s success but first I must nail the product and that is not quite done just yet. Preliminary investigation into sourcing and marketing is interesting but I would rather get thing under way once I have the product ready to go.
You have moved my thinking along and turned my head to some good opportunities that I hadn’t yet considered – thank you for that.
Michael was really helpful in giving me direction for myself and introduced me immediately to someone who can help me. I HIGHLY recommend to talk with Michael.
My meeting with Michael was incredibly useful in order to understand how to approach the Chinese market. His experience and insight allowed him to answer all my questions and give very key advice to my continuing work towards China. Thank you!
Great insights about lean startup and how your company practices those principles! It helped me gained a much better understanding of LS. All the best for your lean-startup

I’m a US university student doing research for transportation which is completely unrelated to Michaels social media in china. HOWEVER, talking with Michael and setting up a time to do so was simple and without a doubt the most informative engaging experience i’ve had working on my project. His depth of knowledge and ability to listen and communicate his thoughts was extremely helpful. I would work with him again in a heartbeat. Thanks again Mike!
