• #531 - Most Amazon Sellers Have Never Tested Their Main Image
    Oct 21 2026

    Most Amazon sellers have never tested their main image. Not once. This week I launched a main image split test, kicked field goals with my boys, and let AI fix the stuff that used to eat my whole afternoon.

    In this episode, I'm sharing a more behind-the-scenes look at a real week: College GameDay in Provo with my two boys, and what working inside my Weavos operating system actually looks like day to day. I get into why AI isn't a "run my business and walk away" button, how I fix things without knowing how to code, and how I built and launched new main images as an Amazon experiment in about an hour.

    In this episode:

    • Why this podcast is just as much for me as it is for you
    • College GameDay in Provo with my boys, 17 years after my first one
    • Going deep on Claude Code, and why I've been posting less on Instagram
    • AI is not hands-off: reviewing data, arguing with Claude and making the decisions myself
    • One click from decision to execution, with client updates sent to Slack
    • Fixing broken things with zero coding knowledge: "Why is this not working?"
    • Why we decided our main images could be better, and studying top competitors
    • Building new main images in about an hour and launching a split test in Manage Your Experiments
    • What used to take a graphic designer and 10 days of back and forth
    • Why the people who dive into AI now will have a big advantage over the next 6 to 12 months

  • #530 - I Disappeared for 8 Months. Here's What I Built.
    Oct 16 2026

    Built by Business is BACK! My last episode went out February 23rd, almost eight months ago, and I've had a fire burning to get back on the mic.

    In this episode, I catch you up on everything: a summer of boating content, doubling my Instagram following just by being me, and landing brand partnerships I honestly thought I had no shot at. Then I get into what's had me up until 2 a.m.: two AI operating systems I've built with Claude Code. One runs my personal life. The other, Weavos OS, runs my Amazon agency, and it's the reason I now want fewer clients, not more.

    In this episode:

    • Why the podcast went quiet, and why it's back
    • Making content for fun again, and doubling to about 74K followers on Instagram
    • Shoot your shot: how a pair of budget sunglasses turned into a brand partnership
    • The dark side of content: chasing views, and learning to say no
    • Amazon Accelerate and getting serious about AI
    • Learning Claude Code from zero: 20 hours of lessons before my first session
    • Isom OS: one system for every inbox, the family calendar and personal finances
    • Weavos OS: SmartScout, Helium 10, AdLabs, Nova Data and Keepa in one agency system
    • BRIN on Amazon: 133 listings, a storefront and 530 edited images in a few days
    • Why I want five clients max, and one or two openings in January

    If you're a founder doing $50K+/month and want me to look at your Amazon account, go to www.weavos.io (put in an ASIN for an instant report) or email andy@weavos.io.

  • #525 - The Brand-Direct Play: Who It Works For (and Who It Doesn't) with Cajua Robinson
    Nov 26 2025

    Forget arbitrage. Forget guessing what to private label next.


    In this episode, Andy Isom sits down with Cajua Robinson to unpack the Brand-Direct Model — where sellers form exclusive wholesale partnerships with established brands and manage their Amazon presence on the brand's behalf.

    We break down how these exclusive agreements work, what types of brands are ideal partners, how to structure deals that protect both sides, and why this model is one of the most sustainable paths for Amazon entrepreneurs in 2025.

    If you've ever wanted to move beyond reseller chaos and build real relationships with brands — this episode is your playbook.
