Guide To Starting A Fulfillment By Amazon Business

Take advantage of Fulfilment by Amazon, an optional service where we store your products, ship your orders, and manage customer service and returns-all so you can focus on growing your business. Now, here’s the thing, if you think that it cost a lot of money to start, why don’t you just go ahead and go into Target, go into a big box store and go to the closeout rack, pick up something there that you think would sell on Amazon or take and look at in on Amazon and see if it’s a popular product and then from there go ahead and launch that one product.

The long term vision for this, and kind of the way that I’m using Amazon and I’ve, right from the beginning, I was testing Amazon to test to see if products were selling but then from there I’ve always had the vision of once we validate, once we verify then yes, we want to start building out our brand not just on Amazon but off of Amazon which we’re not going to go into that.

HOWEVER — Amazon FBA is great for setting up a fulfillment service to ship items to your customers and you have access to the best customers ever — Amazon Prime customers, and if you are familiar with eCommerce and search engines, then Amazon spanks the crap out of eBay when it comes to a Google search bringing up what a potential customer types in.But most of the time that’s not going to happen like that and you got to put work into it and it’s possible but people out there are still saying, Well, it’s too saturated.” Yeah, it’s saturated for people that just want to throw up a product and just say, I’m going to sell the same thing that everyone else is selling and then I’m going to get sales.” Yeah, you’re right.

You Can’t Be Successful Selling On Amazon: I am reiterating a previous point here with this one, but with Amazon soaring towards $100 billion in annual sales over the next two years it’s a wide open market place for people to cash in. Just last year on Cyber Monday there were 16 million items shipped from third party sellers, a fifty percent year over year growth.We found great opportunity (which ultimately led to our success and acquisition offers from both Amazon and ) in specifically targeting thousands of companies looking for personal service (extra discounts, product lists tailored specifically to their needs, and other support for their unique requirements) on those millions of books their employees buy every year.
