Arriving in the United States with only $900 and no knowledge of English, he started working in a kiosk selling sea products in San Diego. Despite the language barrier, Dima learned how to sell products by asking his boss to write him a script. He later became the top seller in multiple locations. &nbsp; Dima's success continued as a pedicab driver in Key West, where he came up with a unique approach to increase his earnings by offering tours to his customers. There, he met a client who taught him how to sell products online for free, leading him to start dropshipping on eBay. Although he faced challenges such as other sellers copying his stores and undercutting his prices, Dima's experience taught him the importance of product selection and creating visually appealing listings. &nbsp; Dima's journey wasn't without setbacks, however. He lost all of his inventory when Apple sent a warning letter about selling non-certified cables, and even faced a potential $2 million fine or jail time for importing copycat products. Despite these challenges, Dima continued to adapt and find success by testing and eventually selling supplements and matcha tea on Amazon. &nbsp; Dima's story is a testament to the power of persistence and delegation in business. He has built a successful fulfillment center and software company for Amazon sellers and encourages anyone with ideas to reach out to him. For Dima, the easiest way to gain financial freedom is through starting a business on Amazon, and he is passionate about teaching others how to do the same. &nbsp; &nbsp; "> <meta itemprop="name" content="The Aaron Cordovez Show: Ukrainian Immigrant Millionaire Story From $900 and no English to a $30+ Million on Amazon - Dima Kubrak"> <meta itemprop="description" content="Looking to sell your company?
