About Sable Education
We are a group of 4 individuals who after being made redundant from our jobs decided to achieve financial security and a better quality of life without working for an employee. We worked with large companies and our careers meant travelling to different locations – as exciting as this is the thought of getting on an early flight gets tiresome and the novelty wore off. We no longer wanted to be as one partner described ‘a slave to our wage’. During the financial crisis of 2008 we left our companies and decided build on line business. Many courses later and after much trial and error each of now runs our own highly successful online businesses and consult to mid size companies looking to grow their on line presence.
Our Directors, all have their own successful and highly profitable online businesses and what they’ve learned, you’ll learn.
We are always learning from experts, visiting trade shows to identify up and coming trends - you get this information.
Our classes sizes are small (no more than 20 people allowing for maximum interaction and discussion)
At the end of the 2 day 'bootcamp', you will know how to;
-
Set up an efficient online retail business.
-
Discover the right product and price point.
-
Create your own brand.
-
Work with discounted suppliers.
-
Utilize existing platforms.
Our Main presenter – Ramesh Shan
Over the years we have used our collective knowledge to build a process and template which anyone can use to launch their online business. Over the last few years, we have presented this course to individuals in the hope that they too have the opportunity to develop other streams of income and be less dependant on their employee.
Our main presenter, Ramesh, has built 2 successful Amazon business – a pet supply business (selling in the UK and Europe) and a beauty supply business (selling in the US). These now run successfully and has given him the time to devote to activities he loves.
Ramesh has been selling online from 2013 first with Amazon, then moving on to opening other e- Commerce stores. Ramesh had no prior experience in this sector.
Ramesh is a CPA and has worked for large companies in the UK including Shell, Rio, Accenture, Barclays Bank and BP advising senior executives of those companies. With regular promotions he had a fantastic career trajectory with good job security. However, work involved very late nights, significant amounts of travel – which became non-conducive to Ramesh and his young family. However, with job security, career trajectory and good pay, Ramesh decided to stay on.
During the financial crisis in 2010 Ramesh’s client list rapidly shrunk and had to take redundancy from Accenture. This was a highly uncertain move. But it compelled him to rethink what he wanted to do. He took courses on property development and management and building Amazon stores and eventually launched his Amazon business in the UK.
He later expanded by building a new Amazon store to sell in the US (he did this from the UK). 8 years ago (with the support of his mentors) he developed a successful Amazon training programme and delivered it across the UK in small groups so there is better interaction with the tutors.
Ramesh moved to Australia 5 years ago and continues to operate his Amazon stores from Australia as well as help train those who may be interested in building Amazon or e-commerce stores. Ramesh also partners with promising Amazon and E commerce business to help them scale and grow.
He has put his learning of what works and what does not in a 2-day bootcamp, using a step by step methodology that is geared to beginners (as he was when he started). When asked why he has done this, the answer is ‘everyone should have the opportunity to know how to build their own business and achieve security from the 9 to 5 job.’

How long does it take to make profits? I have heard other making lots of money in a short time
This depends…..our students have made money in as little as 3 months. Typically by 12 months 70% of our students should make $5000 a month (You should break even in 10 weeks from the time you. By this time we would expect that the business scales up to make even higher amounts.
A word of caution, whilst people do make significantly higher amounts (our most successful student makes around $43,000 per month on one of his Amazon businesses), most people make modest amounts of between $6,000 to $9,000 a month) – Test how much you could make using our calculator.
Success is determined by a number of factors including being disciplined and following our process, putting in the time at the early stages, and making data driven decisions.
It took our lead trainer 11 months to make profits (3 months to break even). It is important to note that all our trainers have make significant amounts, however, we have all made mistakes and between all of us we know what works and IMPORTANTLY what does not
How much money do I need to start off?
We recommend having AUD 10,000. This will be used to fund purchase of products and to pay and marketing. You will also need time to help start the business (once the business is set up you need about 30 minutes a day (more if you are launching new products).
When Can I quit my day job?
The short answer is do not quit now….the business needs to start making money first …
Then it really is your decision
What about other methods of selling?
Good questions…..you could open an ecomm store (using perhaps Shopify). However, consider this:
Amazon does a lot of the work for you - a website, sends you customers, ships products out for you, collects money on your behalf. Additionally Amazon has a captive audience and has significant positive customer interactions. All you need to do is bring to market in demand products (and we show you how)
Are Amazon courses worth it? Can I not learn from You Tube, Free resources?
We often say this is the equivalent of saying why get a teacher – there are many books to teach you. There are lots of resources, however you will have lots to learn, take significant time (and probably make mistakes along the way). The leaning curve would be massive especially if you have never done this before.
This course provides a roadmap with tools and templates that shortens the learning curve and will help you move straight to implementation and with the knowledge that it will work.
Can I purchase sites built for me?
We strongly recommend you not – these sites are generally mass produced with products everyone is selling – you will compete on price and you will lose money.
What markets can I sell in?
You can sell in any major market that you choose (the US, Europe, India, Africa, Australia)….We would recommend that you sell in the major markets first. Our primary recommendation is the USA, followed by the UK and then Germany. The fact that the first 2 are significant Amazon markets where English is the primary language makes starting of easier.
What does Sable Education do?

Why is this course expensive?
Our price is actually much less than any web-based courses. Our price also reflects the investment we have made to provide end to end training module. Individually purchased these each module would cost around $300.
We are more competitive than our competitors as we do not do any affiliate marketing (this creates a conflict of interest for us) and spend significantly less on marketing.
