Hi! I'm Johnathan Martin

I'm a 35 year old ecommerce, real estate investor and former basketball player from Tennessee. I've been truly blessed and fortunate over the last few years to grow a drop shipping business that operates primarily online. I am truly thankful that instead of waking up everyday clocking a 9-5 doing the normal cycle that most people have to obtain to make a living, I get to spend my time and energy enjoying life to the fullest. This lifestyle allows me to spend more time with my family, friends, travel around the world to places that most people could only imagine, also giving me all the time and energy to work out, eat right and maintain a healthy lifestyle while never having to worry about any stressful financial situations. So you may be asking Johnathan, How Did You Get Here? Well I initially took the traditional route. I graduated from high school, went to college on a basketball scholarship while practicing everyday, working hard and bussing my ass just like any other determined kid who has dreams of making it to the NBA. As you probably guessed, it didn't quite work out like that. I grew up in a small city called Chattanooga where most people would say that you have to leave town to become successful. I was blessed to be raised in a two parent home where you would think that I would have advantages because there's 2 incomes but not at all.
I mean my mom and dad worked very hard which I appreciate and did the best that they could to raise 4 kids me being the second oldest but the hourly wages that they were paid just wasn't enough. Now we wasn't poor or anything but we also wasn't rich either. I use to want to wear the Air Jordan's and wear the newest fashion outfits and just couldn't quite understand why my mom and dad couldn't buy me the same things that I seen the other kids at school wearing. As I got older I grew taller and fell in love with a game called Basketball. I remember wanting to be like my role models Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson. I worked hard everyday because I wanted to be just as good as them and play on the biggest stage in the world the NBA. I worked night and day on my basketball skills and most people that know me would tell you that I got extremely good to the point that I was able to earn a full basketball scholarship. When I was younger of course I wanted the new shoes, clothes and etc. but the main thing that I wanted is for my mom and dad to be able to relax, not work so hard.

It felt like my life was over. What was I going to do now, all this hard work I put in to end like this over an injury. I felt like I had let everyone down, my friends, family, myself and most of all my parents because I told them a million times over and over that they didn't have to worry about anything because I was going to the NBA. So I retired from basketball for good and eventually had to find a job. I hated it, getting up at 6am in the morning and leaving work at 4pm only to make enough money to last me to the next pay period. I knew that it was something better for me that would allow me to make more money and have more time and freedom to travel, try new things, new adventures, and most importantly give back to my parents. So I spent the next couple of years online searching for different business opportunities that could give me the lifestyle I wanted. This wasn't easy because there were so many things to choose from and I was new to this entrepreneur thing but I knew this was the route I had to go. I'm not going to lie. I spent a lot of time and money looking for the right business niche because it seemed like whatever I did I just couldn't get over the hump. Until one day I came across a guy online named Jacque and he was talking about something called ecommerce and how much money you can make from the comfort of your home if you're doing ecommerce. So I was excited because I was hearing all these different people and their testimonies of how they are changing their lives and making residual 6-7 incomes with this ecommerce thing. I was sold, so you know I purchased this online training course and in this course I learned something called DROP SHIPPING. With this drop shipping thing I could control everything and most importantly control the amount of money I make and manage my own time in the process.

After learning dropshipping and how to do it, I was hearing everyone talk about taking the drop shipping model and using it on the biggest ecommerce platform in the world called Amazon. Within a year I had a six-figure store making over $100,000 in sales. The best part about Amazon drop-shipping is I didn't have to store any inventory, no overhead and only had to purchase the products after I sold them so it was no way I could lose any money. Meaning I already knew how much money I was going to make on each product even before I purchased it. Drop shipping on Amazon is the simplest way for anyone to get started online with the least amount of risk. There's no cap on the amount of products you can list, no purchase needed until you have already sold the product, the suppliers send the product directly to the customers so you never even physically see the products. I have been very blessed to be able to give back to my family and live the life I always wanted, from living paycheck to paycheck to $15,000 days with ecommerce.

I get to stay in the comforts of my home while relaxing and enjoying unlimited time with my family, the opportunity to travel all over the world and all I need is my laptop and internet connection. I never have to request vacation time because I'm my own boss, however my biggest achievement has been the ability to mentor others and pass down my knowledge to help others achieve a better life for themselves and their family.
