While their companies are drastically different, three Amazon sellers have overcome the same challenge: launching a business while working a full-time job. Now, their companies are thriving in Amazon’s store and creating innovative products. Hear each seller share how they successfully built a business while supporting their families, employees, and customers in Episode 7 of “Hi, I’m an Amazon seller.”

Michael Schmiedicke, Strong Oaks Woodshop
Michael started woodworking after his physical therapist told him he had to get out of his desk chair and start moving. It didn’t take long before he started selling furniture made from reclaimed wood, and Strong Oaks Woodshop was born. Strong Oaks builds each furniture piece from reclaimed wood salvaged from across the country. Michael turned to Amazon with the launch of Amazon Handmade, and has been selling Strong Oaks furniture in Amazon’s store ever since. @JakeSchmiedicke
Jamelah Tucker, @EasypeasieCo
Sisters Dorielle and Jamelah created EasyPeasie to give Dorielle’s kids exposure to vegetables early and often. What began as a solution for young, picky eaters led to a business idea that offers families a convenient way to add nutritious vegetables to meals. With backgrounds in engineering and pediatrics, the sisters are helping parents win at mealtime with vegetable blends that include carrots, peas, sweet potatoes, kale, and spinach.
Sean Brownlee, @Ravenox
“Manufactured in the USA” means a lot to Sean Brownlee, a Special Operations Marine and the founder of Ravenox. In 2012, Sean founded Ravenox as a way to serve his community. Ravenox ropes were initially made for the outdoor adventurer, but they have a multitude of other uses, from tug-of-war, to crafting, and pet leashes, or anything else you might need a rope for. They are proud to be one of only 27 manufacturers in the world whose ropes meet the manufacturing standards set forth by the American Cordage Institute.
