I’ve been with Rainmakers for about a year and a half. I currently have 2 products on Amazon that were reviewed by the Rainmaker team. I really love the community and the support system, however the investment required to become successful is HUGE. Between the initial $5000 ish for the first year of rainmakers, plus the cost of buying products and launching them, I have over $20000 invested. My products have been on Amazon for about a year. I’ve had over $17,000 in sales, but have not seen a dime of that. It all goes back to Amazon fees and advertising costs. I finally hired a company to assist with management to lower my costs because I was paying Amazon close to $1000 a month in advertising. I think my products could eventually be successful if I could pour more into making variations. At this point, I’m bled dry. I’m maxed out on loans and credit cards. Just be cautious and be prepared to spend A LOT of money. You will hear many success stories and it is certainly possible, but the timeframe is much longer than is pitched. When they talk about the sales you’ll make in a year, know that most will go back to fees.
