I’m going to be showing you step-by-step how to sell with Amazon FBA for beginners 2021. Now, quick note here, we’re not selling you anything, There are no courses, There are no pitches. You don’t have to worry about us going through here and just telling you to buy or like a thousand dollar course. The truth is you don’t have to spend any money in order to learn how to do Amazon FBA. It’s still very much alive and well in 2021. And we’re going to show you everything that you need to know.

This is a beginner’s guide on Amazon FBA, and we’re going to give you as much information as possible in this article. So I recommend taking out a pen, taking out a piece of paper, taking some notes on this article. So just enjoy this take some notes and I think it’s going to be of quite a bit of value for you.

So let’s get started here. But it’s important to note as well that this is not a get rich quick type of idea while this is still very much alive and well, we know people who are selling hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of products on Amazon. And we’ve done this quite a bit ourselves but this is not a get-rich-quick scheme.
Okay? This is not something that tomorrow you’re going to wake up and you’re going to have $10
million from selling products on Amazon. This is very much a long process. So hopefully if you’re
reading this article, it’s with my hopes that maybe you already have a job or you’re already in school, you already have something going on.

And what I want you to do is hopefully start to do something like this on the side, right? Start to
build it up over time. You start to learn from your experiences, and this is the best way to go about this,
rather than just trying to jump into it Full-Time right off the bat. But rather build up over time, learn
from your experiences over time, launch one product, then launch another one , another
one over the course of the next couple of months. That’s what we would suggest doing rather than just
hitting it running and just going out and trying to make a ton of money within the next couple of weeks.
It’s going to be really difficult to do that. And we don’t want to see you lose your shit by getting in over
your head too quickly. Okay.

So let’s start here.

Amazon FBA For Beginners 2021

But first of all, let’s just discuss a couple of things that we’re looking at here in the big segments.
First of all, we’re going to look at how to find products. I’m going to talk a little bit more about Amazon
FBA and essentially what it is, but then we’re going to talk about how to find products, right? How do
you find products that have a lot of demand and not very much supply?

I don’t know if you’ve taken any type of economics courses or, or studied economics, but you’ll know that you want to be in a position where there’s not very much supply, but there’s a lot of demand. We’ll show you how to find those
different types of products. There’s a couple of great techniques that we have for those. And then we’ll
talk about how to actually source those products, right?

How do we find the products that we can then go sell?

How do we find manufacturers? Should we deal with trading companies? Should we go straight to the manufacturer?How do we get that over to America or wherever you’re based? And so we’ll go over as much as we can in regards to sourcing products, buying those products, it sounds pretty scary by maybe ordering pallets of products from
some type of country on the other side of the world, but it can actually get a lot easier and simpler once you
get the process rolling.

So if at any point you feel intimidated from this, just know that it’s gonna take some time, okay, but you take it one step at a time. You start to build this knowledge and, and you really
can win with this. So let’s start off by understanding fulfillment by Amazon, Amazon FBA.
That’s what it stands for. It’s fulfilled by Amazon. Now, this is the most popular route for people who
are selling on Amazon, especially in 2021.

There’s also another option though if you don’t want it fulfilled by Amazon, meaning that Amazon is actually shipping out the packages for you. You’re not the one putting those packages in the mail. This is what you’ll see when people do Amazon FBA, you’ll see this prime option as well. So they’re shipping out from their warehouses. You’re just the seller. So you’re getting a cut there. This is a great move for most people, but there’s also something called Amazon FBM, which is fulfillment by merchant, which is a essentially you can list something on Amazon and then you can ship that product out yourself. You can totally do that. I actually know a lot of people who might prefer to do that when they first start off selling on Amazon and there’s pros and cons to each one of these.

Now we’ll be primarily talking about FBA fulfillment by Amazon, where they ship it out, but we will
touch on FBM a little bit on if you want to ship those products out yourself. Now, the pros and cons of
each of these, it’s important to understand this because with something like FBA, maybe you’ll save
some time. And actually you’ll probably end up selling more from our experience selling more when you
do FBA, because you have that prime shipping that’s available in most cases Amazon’s shipping at for
you. So it might end up saving you time as well. You don’t have to run to the post office to ship those
things out. The problem with Amazon FBA is that it can actually be a little bit more expensive because
Amazon does take quite a few fees. And you’ll notice that as a common theme throughout this, that
Amazon, they take a lot of fees in a lot of different areas.

This is not without good reason. I mean, they are in a lot of cases promoting your product for you. The
Amazon search engine is the largest search engine for shopping in the world. So when people want to
buy something, they go to Amazon and Amazon can promote this product for you. So it’s great to have
that on there now, fulfillment by merchant, just very quickly to run over this. It’s probably going to save
you some money in fees because you might be able to do this yourself. You don’t have to pay all these
various Amazon fees, but we find that you actually end up don’t selling as much. And people really do
want to have that prime two-day shipping included there. They don’t want to have to pay an extra $5
and 95 cents for shipping. So we suggest going with FBA if you can, especially if the margins are still
there and we’ll talk about profit margins in just a minute as well, but let’s get into the section here
where we talk about finding products,

how the hell do we find a product to sell on Amazon?

Now, admittedly, it used to be a lot easier to find products with good profit margins, five or 10 years
ago, selling on Amazon, but it’s still very possible to find products like this. So one strategy that we could
use, which is probably the beginner strategy is just going through and randomly searching for things and
kind of guessing a product, we used to do this actually way back when I used to sell a lot of products on eBay,
what we would do is I would, anytime that I would buy something, I would look at the product cost and
then I would go and try to source the product. And I would try to compare that and to see if I could get it
for a lower price. This isn’t the best method, right? Like if I go on here and maybe I’m thinking about
selling some type of you know, winter gloves, right?

And I’m, I’m looking through here and I’m just trying to find something, right. This is going to be really
difficult to just kind of go throughout this and find products without any type of software or any type of
help because who knows, you know, okay, this is selling for $16 and 95 cents, but is it possible to tap
into this? It has a lot of reviews. It’s already at the top here. These are actually sponsored. And so what
we recommend doing is not just going through here and blindly guessing on products. This is going to
end up in just a really big fiasco for you. What we suggest doing is getting this piece of software called
jungle scout. So jungle scout is a software. It’s going to cost you a little bit of money.

Just so you can check it out if you would like to, But basically what jungle scout does, it’s as beautiful piece of software. I absolutely love it. That really what it does is it’ll show you the average monthly sales on average, they’re obviously extrapolating a lot of this data.

They don’t have all of this data on hand but they’re doing as much as they can to give you this information. This is the number one tool for sellers on Amazon. I mean, it’s, it’s an absolute beauty of a tool here but we can see the average price for winter gloves, $19 and 16 cents. We can see the average amount of reviews but then we can
also see the opportunity score here which is not very good, it’s in high demand, but it has a lot of
competition on this as well.

So seeing this, you know, we’re probably not going to want to go and start to try to sell winter gloves
because it looks like this market here it’s already kind of flooded the profit margins. Aren’t that great. As
you can see, some people are on average might be losing money. Some people might only be making a
couple of dollars. This is just all of course, just an estimate from jungle scout. But this piece of software,
you know, we can look through and see their price. We can see their average monthly sales. They’re
obviously selling a ton. You know, most of these are selling a 10, 20, 30 or 40,000 gloves per month
products per month. So they’re absolutely crushing with that, but it’s going to be really difficult for us to
tap into that. So we’re not going to go with that one, but we want to actually, instead of just guessing
here and using the software, which you could do, what we’re actually going to do is we’re going to go
over to jungle scout, right? And so we’re going to go into jungle scout.

I’m going to log in here and we’re going to actually look for the new opportunities, right? The product opportunities. There’s a tab on this site that will allow us to do this. If you don’t want to go through, use the software, if you don’t want to pay for the software, you can still do this. We’ll talk more about that later in this article, if you want to forego that. But I think it’s probably going to be worth an investment to be totally honest with you, at least to do some initial
product research. So once this page, page loads here, I’m going to be able to log in and then we’re going
to be able to look at new opportunities available to us here. So we’re logged into the jungle scout
dashboard here.

And now what we’re going to do is we’re going to go to product research.
I’m going to click down here and we’re going to go to opportunity finder. And now once we have the
opportunity finder, this is where we can start to discover different types of products that we might want
to consider selling. Now, I urge you to not just try to sell products that you love or that you use, or that
you’re passionate about because those products might not have good margins. We need to find
products that it doesn’t matter if I like it or not. It doesn’t matter if it, I, myself and using that product.
For example, you know, if I’m selling women’s razors, I don’t use women’s razors, but that’s okay.
Because as long as it makes me some money and it’s a good product, because at the end of the day, you
know, if it’s a bad product, you’re not going to be selling on Amazon for very long that’s.
That’s true.

So now what we’re going to do is we can select all categories, but I actually like to target a
couple of different categories. So home and kitchen, for example, maybe office products, it was one that
we found to be pretty profitable. And you can go through here and decide which ones you want to go
for. Or we probably would suggest just selecting all here for the time being to kind of get your feet wet
and try to discover certain types of things products. Now, once we do that, we can go and look at the
average monthly unit sold. I would suggest going for a product that’s selling it at least a hundred units
per month. You know, if there’s five per month, because you’re trying to sell some type of weird obscure
fly trap thing that nobody’s ever really heard of, it’s probably not going to be worth your time or
anybody else’s time to, to spend energy on a listing.

That’s not selling anything because nobody’s searching for it. So for this, let’s just set up a minimum of
100 monthly units sold. This is a pretty low number. You know, you could even set this closer to 500 or
closer to a thousand, if you would like to, but for our first product, we’ll start with just 100 units. Now
we can also look at the average monthly price. I would suggest setting a filter for this. But the reason for
this is because if you’re selling a product on Amazon for $10 or less, what we find is that your profits will
be almost non-existent meaning that Amazon, they do take a lot of fees, but there’s also shipping.
There’s the cost of actually making the product and getting it to Amazon them, shipping it out. They’re
taking fees and there’s going to be product returns is going to be other problems.

I would not suggest selling anything less than $10 with Amazon FBA. You’re just not going to have good
profit margins at all, unless you’re getting your actual product for like 10 cents. And you’re able to sell it
for $10, which is pretty rare, right? So we’re going to set a minimum price for $10 and a maximum price
we’re going to set at about 80 here, just so that we don’t have too many products showing up. But also
what we find is that if you have a product on Amazon for $500, you’re going to get far fewer sales on
that. Most people aren’t gonna be able to just convert on cold traffic. So we’re going to keep that from a
10 to an $80 range. The other reason why we’re keeping this we’re capping this average monthly price
at $80 is because if you’re just starting to sell products on Amazon, you’re probably not going to be able
to afford to sell $500 sofa.

And a thousand of those, you probably don’t have that much money to invest into something like
Amazon FBA, right? So we want to keep this price a little bit low for our first round of products that we
are trying to sell. And you can go through and add some more filters on here. If you would. Like, what I
would do is suggest turning this competition down from very low down to about medium competition.
They run a number of different factors in this to decide what’s going to be competitive and what’s not
competitive, but this is going to help you tap into those niches or those industries that everybody’s not
in. Right? Like if we try to sell cutting boards, everybody’s selling cutting boards.

It’s really hard to tap into that cause so many people are searching for it. So we’re going to go for something very low to medium competition can also look at seasonality as well, which is going to be important.
Christmas just happens. So we probably don’t want to sell a Christmas item or it could actually be a way
to get into the market here. So now what we’re going to do is we’re going to click search cause we’ve set
our different things here. So now we can go through here and we can look at all these different products that
popped up based off of our search criteria for a product that we might want to sell on Amazon.

So we can go through here and you’re going to see ones that you just are not going to be relevant to you. So a
Yankee candle, I’m not going to sell that because, well, I don’t own Yankee candles. So we’re going to
go through here because what we’re really going for in this case is we’re probably trying to find
something that we can private label, meaning that we can actually source from a manufacturer.
We can slap our own brand name onto it, and then we can sell it for a premium price. So, you know, this
one’s actually pretty interesting right here,

Valentine gnomes. You know, I’ve actually seen this a number of times, we were doing some product research about two months ago, back in November, or maybe it was three months ago now back in November and we’re looking at gnomes for Christmas. And it’s just very interesting to see that for some reason, the no market doesn’t seem very tapped into. And we’re just using this as an example here for the purpose of this article. But let’s say we’re just
intrigued by this. So we can go ahead. We can click on Valentine gnomes, and we can look at the
average units sold, right? Obviously starting to pick up a lot, 1,621 units sold in January so far.

This is of course an estimate. This is going to be a seasonal item. So you have to decide, this is something
that you really want to end up selling, but let’s go ahead and let’s start to look into this a little bit more,
right? So let’s actually search this on Amazon. So we’re searching for Valentine gnomes on Amazon, and
we can go ahead and we can look at what we have here. And what we have is a number of products that
don’t really have many reviews.

I mean, take a look at this. They don’t have many reviews, but they’re averaging quite a few monthly sales. Now, this is of course an estimate. This might not be totally accurate, but it’s very intriguing to see why there are so many gnomes being sold here. And there, they’re getting quite a few sales, right? So this might be a product that we’re interested in trying to source and trying to sell. So now one quick note here if, so we’re going to use this as an example for this article here, sourcing gnomes and selling Valentine’s gnomes. But the problem here is that I’m writing this article in January. And so if we wanted to actually do this, we should have been ahead of the trend, right? So, because it’s going to take a couple of weeks to find a manufacturer, to get those to Amazon, and then Amazon ship them out and to, and to build some reputation there. So if you’re going to do something seasonal like this, you’re going to want to think many months out, right? So right now it’s January, I’m going to start thinking about maybe the 4th of July or independence day gnomes or summer gnomes, and maybe Easter gnomes right later on in the year. So that I’m prepared for them.

That’s just a quick note there that I wanted to mention. So let’s go back to jungle scout
And let’s say that we’re very interested in Selling gnomes, right? Because they’re selling quite a few gnomes here. It looks like this is a pretty good product to sell. So now that we’ve found a potential product that we want to end up selling, we’ve identified that there’s demand for it, right. They’re obviously selling thousands of Valentine gnomes per
month. And there seems to be quite a bit of demand for it as well. Okay. So now that we have identified that what we’re going to do is try to find a way to source that, and that’s going to be in the next segment here. So assuming that you are using the jungle scout plugin here of what we can do is we can go up to the Chrome extension, which we have installed here. After we’ve searched for Valentine gnomes, we can go ahead and click on it. And this is just another view that you can have here.

So with an average of 1,672 monthly sales what we’re really looking at here though, is the spread here on the different products that are being sold, right? So these are all different brands here, and they’re all likely selling thousands of different gnomes, right? So they’re obviously selling a lot here, their monthly revenue for example here is well over $50,000. I guess a lot of people like gnomes, I don’t know, maybe old people, I wouldn’t buy one of these, but some people obviously do with an average price of $15 and 78 cents. So we’re probably not going to become multimillionaires off of this one specific product because the margins might be a little bit low, but it could be a great way to tap into the market and start to build our reputation here. So what we can do now is we can go over to Ali Baba.

So this is Alibaba, and this is where we’re going to source a lot of our products from. this is going to all
you to connect directly with a manufacturer or sometimes in some cases, a trading company. So
there’s a difference between a manufacturer and a trading company on something like Alibaba And
you’re going to want to know the differences between these two now, a trading company you’re likely
going to end up paying more for a product, because this is not actually a company that actually makes
your specific product, but you’re actually just kind of buying it from them and they’re like a middleman.

And then they go talk to the manufacturer and get it made for you. So it’s, it’s not the best option. The
good thing about dealing with the trading company over the manufacturer is that their customer service
tends to be a bit better from our experience.
But you really do want to probably go and find a manufacturer. I have a lot of friends who do so much
on Amazon FBA that they end up taking business trips over to China, quite a bit, which to just be honest
here, most of the products are going to be coming from China or from some different countries that
have quite a bit of manufacturing in infrastructure in those countries. Okay. So let’s go ahead and let’s
search for the product that we’ve just found on jungle scout. We might not still sell this, right. We still
need to do more research and see how cheap can we actually source this product for now. One thing
that we want to sort of use as a quick and dirty rule of thumb that we like to do, it’s called the rule
of thirds. So let’s say that we’re looking back on these different Valentine’s knowns. And we’re seeing
that the average price is $15 and 78 cents. So what we want to do here is if we’re using the rule of
thirds, which means that one-third Of your price here Is likely going to be going towards the cost of the product. So perhaps $5 or less we’d want to have for the product. One-third of that goes towards Amazon, right? Amazon takes a lot of fees that referral fee, their FBA fee, their long term, their long-term storage fee, and also a seller membership of 39, 99 per month. So they take a lot of fees, but with the rule of thirds, we have that first thing, which is the cost of
the product that might be $5. Then we have the Amazon fees, which could be another $5 or more. And
then hopefully the other third can be our profit, which would be hopefully $5 in our pocket for this. So
let’s see if this is actually going to happen while we can go back over to Alibaba here, let’s look for
Valentine Nome, and let’s see what we can find here for Valentine Noam, right? So let’s, let’s look this
up here.

So for Valentine gnome, we’re going to have a budget pop up here, and this is an interesting-looking
creature of, of a known, but it looks like we can get them for about $2 and 63 cents per piece with a
minimum order of 500. Now, this is probably from a trading company. We can go through here and look
at it specifically. We can look at actually this company here, but let’s scroll through and let’s see if we
can find something for a better price or just a better option here. Right. So, you know, these actually
look kind of cool, I suppose. And these are relatively cheap, a dollar 37. We can go through here a little
bit more, you know, is there anything that we really like, I kind of like these, I think these actually could
sell pretty well.

So let’s go ahead and let’s click on these and let’s see what we’re dealing with here. So this here is a trading company, as we can see based off on this right here, it says the trading company. So we’re probably not going to source them from here. We’re going to want to find a manufacturer but let’s go through here and let’s just read a little bit about the company, right? And some of the different things that they have available. So what we can do, and what I suggest doing is ordering from at least three to five of these different manufacturers, or if you buy it from a trading company, you want to order these and source these from a couple of different ones. And when I say this, I don’t mean you
should be ordering thousands from each different supplier, but rather you’re going to order a sample
from each one of these companies. Right? So go ahead through this and what I think you should do.
And what we’d like to do is pick five different companies.

So we say, you know, this might be a good one here, or maybe we like this one here for only 20 cents. That’s extremely cheap, a little bit too cheap. In some cases you want to be careful on how cheap they are, because sometimes if you’re just going for the lowest price, you might get some pretty bad quality. But we’re going to order a sample from each
one of these five. And the way that we’re going to do this is we’re going to send a message to these
companies. So we’re going to go in here and we can send a message to each one of these companies
reach out to them. We can contact them and say, Hey this is what I’m looking for. I’m looking for
thousands of these items. I’m looking for X amount of these items to ship over to me so that I can sell
them.

Can you do it for this price, blah, blah, blah. And can you also send me a sample is the right price for the
sample? Cause sometimes they’re going to charge you a little bit, actually in a lot of cases, it’s free to get
a sample from these companies. They might just ask that you pay for shipping so that they don’t lose a
ton of money sending out samples to a potential buyers. So go ahead and maybe look for five different
products here that you can experiment with. Then you’re going to end up getting those to your home,
wherever else you’re going to inspect each one of those five different products that those companies
sent you as a sample. And then you’re going to decide based off of the price based off of your
negotiations with those companies, which one you think is the one that you want to use for your FBA
business.

Once you make that decision, then we go through the process of actually putting in an order with one of
these companies. Now, in most cases, we ended up just wiring money to these companies. And in a lot
of cases, you’re going to do a 30% upfront and then you’re going to pay 70% once that product gets
shipped, but you can, of course negotiate these terms. I’ve seen people pay 50% upfront and then 50%
once the product is shipped. But that’s really going to be the way that you can source products. You can deal directly with manufacturers, if you want to private label something.

For example, let’s say that we’re not selling gnomes, but let’s say that we’re selling like workout equipment. So let’s just look up right, like workout Workout shorts, right? And we can find something like this.

And then perhaps we can end up actually private labeling these meaning. We can work with the manufacturer to slap our label on the side of these shorts or on the side of these leggings or anything else in here. Right? And so this is also another option that people like to do because this can actually build your brand right as a whole. And then you
can end up selling these brands. I mean, I’ve had friends who have sold their brands. They’ve built
businesses on Amazon, on FBA. They become very popular people start to recognize that brand name.
And then they’re able to sell this brand. Just the IP, the brand name itself for hundreds of thousands of
dollars. Yeah. Because it’s a very reputable brand and they own some of those spots at the top of the list
on Amazon searches because they’ve made this great branding for all their products.
They’ve slapped their brand on there. They’ve worked with the manufacturer. So that’s what we suggest
doing for that.

But let’s go a little bit deeper into this here. So once you discuss your different deals with the manufacturers or the trading companies that you’re working with through Alibaba or through some other type of source then what you’re going to do is you’re going to actually discuss how those products are getting shipped to you. And this is an important step of the process because we have two different options unless the manufacturer is right down the road from you. You’re probably going to have to get this stuff shipped to you from the other side of the world, in most cases and a lot of cases, this is coming from China. So we really have two big options here. The first option is to have this product shipped to you via by sea, right?
So if you’re shipping products by sea, we find that the average price that is going to run you from our
experience here tends to be roughly like 25 cents to 50 cents per pound. It really depends on what
you’re selling and how much space it takes up as a whole as well. But you can end up getting a lot of
products over by sea for relatively cheap in terms of shipping the problem here. If you’re getting your
products shipped from the manufacturer to Amazon buy, see the problem, you, it can take a pretty long
time. I mean, we’re talking a couple of weeks. These are coming over on big ships across the ocean,
across the Pacific. It’s going to take a lot of time in some cases over a month, we’ve seen. So that’s the
problem with having your products shipped from your manufacturer to Amazon by shipping it by sea.

Now, the faster way to do this is by air, the problem with air though, as you would expect when you’re
getting it in like five days rather than a month, is that it’s going to end up costing you more. We see that
this can end up being closer to like a dollar or $2 per pound. But of course, like I said, it does depend on
the overall space of the product takes up as well. Now you’re also gonna want to make sure that you
have an FN skew barcode on that. So the Amazon can send those out. We can go more in-depth on that
in a later article, we’ll do like a follow-up here to kind of touch on a couple of things that maybe you
would like us to go over. But also please let us know down below in the, in comment section, if
there’s something else you would like us to elaborate on more, I’m trying to cover as much as I can here.

So I hope you can understand that. But what I want to do actually is take you over to the Amazon seller
central here to show you around a little bit and so that you can get started this. Now the thing we have
to know about this is, like I said earlier, Amazon, they like to take their fees. And one of the fees that
they take is an overall seller fee just to even allow you on their platform. So you can either have the
individual plan here, or you can have the professional plan as an Amazon seller. Now, pretty much
everybody that I know has the professional plan, which is going to be 39 99 per month. Or you can do
the individual plan. Now the problem with the individual plan is that you’re paying per item sold. This
can really end up costing you a lot of money.

So, you know, maybe you want to start with the individual plan at first, when you just get started,
because you’re not selling many products, but once you start to sell like a dozen products or more than
you would want to switch over to the professional plan as an Amazon seller. But I do suggest you go to
this page we’ll try to link to it down below and go ahead and look through some of their different things
that they’re taking here, there different fees that Amazon takes, and they actually help you estimate
your Amazon sales margin. So you can go through and look at the different referral fees that they have,
right? So every time that somebody is buying a product, it depends on the category in which they’re
buying the product, but you’re basically paying Amazon or somebody else as a referral fee for bringing
somebody to your product.

Remember, Amazon’s one of the largest search engines in the world. So you’re going to end up paying a
commission to other people or companies in order to actually have people buy your products, right? So
here’s just a nice list of all the different things, right?

If we’re selling beauty products, we’re paying it looks like 8% for products with a total sales of $10 or less, and then 15% for more items. What are you going to notice? So is that the general trend is that these referral fees can be about 15% of the total price that we’re selling these items for. So keep that in mind, some can be lower, closer down to about
8%, even in some cases, computers only 6%, but in a lot of cases, you can end up paying 15% as a referral fee to Amazon. Okay. So once we’ve done that.

let’s talk about what makes a good listing.

Cause we’re going to wrap up here soon, but we want to go over what makes a good listing here. So let’s go back to these products here. Let’s go back to the gnomes and let’s take a look at some of these gnomes that are selling, right?

So let’s go ahead and let’s look at these gnomes. Let’s go to the first ones that are popping up that are not sponsored. So let’s take a look at these Right here. This is a two-pack Of these little gnomes. Now what they’re doing here is, is we can look through and we can see that they have quite a few words in their title. This is something that we’ve been doing for so long. You want to stuff, a lot of keywords into your title. This is going to be a great tactic. If you just had a title that was Valentine’s day Nome, and that was it, there was no other title to it. You’re gonna end up missing out on a lot of opportunities. So you want to do some keyword stuffing here. As many as you can, that are relevant keywords. If you want to learn more about what keywords you should be using, you can do two things. You can look at your competition and you can say, well, I’m going to borrow some of these ideas, right? Don’t copy. Don’t totally copy other sellers. That’s just not very cool. You don’t want to be that person, but you can borrow some ideas, right? You can switch around the order. You can decide, you know what, I’m not going to have Santa doll in there, but I, I am going to change this to Valentine doll perhaps, or something, you know, just, just start to change things up there. And you can borrow those or you can go back to jungle scout and you can go up to Your keywords And you can start to look for different types of keywords, right? So keywords scout, and we can start to look for things that are related to that. So we can type this in, let’s look up Valentine gnome, and let’s see what comes up here and we can search for it.

Oh. And it looks like you actually need to have a higher, extensive one that we don’t have here. So nevermind. Yeah. You’ve stuffed in quite a few keywords into your title. You’re also going to want to look at your description here. Now, this one’s very interesting. I’ve never seen emojis really in descriptions very much, but I actually kind of like it a little bit.
This description is not too bad. They’re obviously giving you quite a bit of information, but there’s
definitely a lot going on here. What we actually like to do.
Let’s see if we can find a different one here, because what we like to do for our descriptions here. Yes.
The bullet points are very good. But what we’d like to do is have all caps for the first couple of words
and then follow it up, right? So that they chose to use brackets here. This is also another option.

But what we do is for example, we might say, perfect Valentine’s day gift, all caps, right? It’s it’s know it’s on
camps. And then the following sentences are in regular text. How you would normally see it, right? So
this is not bad. I like how they’re doing this. You can think about having different types of pictures as
well. Amazon does want you to have your main photo as a white background for this. So keep this in mind. You’re going to want a white background for this. If you’re looking for ways to get pictures of your products, there’s a couple of ways to do this. You can end up actually paying people. You can use fiverr, or you can use Upwork. You can send these products to photographers or models and have them take some photos with your products. I would suggest doing that because it does help with conversions. When you actually have people holding your product or
using your product, we see this, especially with different types of fitness products, it works extremely
well, right? Like if you’re selling athletic shorts, you’re going to want to have something besides just a
white background picture. You want to have some photos of people wearing your shorts, inactions, and
that people can kind of relate to it. And we find it does sell quite a bit better that way. So let’s see what
else they have here and what else we can use as an option.

Now, I want to show you another cool thing that we can do that most people don’t tell you, which is
when you scroll down and you look at this frequently bought together tab. This can be some secret
sauce here. Okay? Because what we can do is we can look at the items that are bought together and we
can actually end up creating a separate listing that has both of those bundled together, which can save a
lot of money. Right? So what if we end up selling a product that has both gnomes and whatever the hell
this thing is, it looks like it’s a happy Valentine’s day, heart wooden wall decoration, right? So what if
we ended up making our own product and actually bundling both of these together, selling them as one
item where they get these gnomes and also this wooden happy Valentine’s day.

And this love thing, because people want to do like an all-in-one. They buy some decorations for
Valentine’s day. So they’re buying all three of these so that we can bundle these together and make it a
one product and see people who are buying all three of these, they’re paying $42. We can end up selling
this for less, maybe $30 as a bundled deal. So that’s a cool thing that a lot of people don’t tell you about.
We’ve seen a lot of success with something like that, but then we can scroll down and we can look a
little bit further into this. The question part very important. If you have people asking questions, you
want to be fast with your response time. This helps out a lot of other people, not just the people asking
the questions, but prospective buyers in the future as well. And then also the most important thing by
far is going to be the reviews.

I don’t know about you, but this is the one thing that I look at all the time. I want to see the reviews. If
they’re good or bad, I personally rarely buy anything that has less than a four or a three and a half star
review. I just won’t buy it. So you want to make sure that you’re selling good quality products and you’re
getting reviews from your customers. Now you can’t just go out and ask your customers and say, Hey if
you like the product, make sure you review it. If you don’t like the product, don’t review it. You cannot
say that. So what you want to do is you can say, Hey, don’t forget to review the product. And you can
just do this by putting like a little piece of paper in each one of the products that you’re shipping out.
You can have your manufacturer do this for you if you would like to when they’re bundling these
together and just say, you know, here’s the contact information. If you have an issue with the product
you know, feel free to leave a review. If you’d like to that’s one thing that we’ve seen that helps get a lot
of reviews, but let’s actually talk about which is

how to tap into the market, basically how to start selling

Because a lot of people find issues with this. They find it very difficult to start to actually sell the product
because it’s difficult to tap into it, right? Like how do they get to the top spot on Amazon? When somebody searches for something it’s really hard to get that spot. So there are basically two strategies that we use to get our product to the top and start to sell products immediately.

Even if we don’t have a lot of reviews for people to base their decisions off of now, the two strategies
are as follows. The first one is probably going to be, I would say your easiest one, but it’s going to cost
you some money. And that’s basically PPC, which is pay-per-click which is going to get you towards the
top. So let’s say for example, that somebody is looking for cutting boards and you’re you happen to be
selling cutting boards, right? So if somebody’s looking for cutting boards, what’s going to happen here.
Well, Amazon, they like to make their money. And so these ones at the top here, these are all
sponsored.

These are all sponsored listings for cutting boards. So you could sponsor your posts. This is
going to cost you money. You might lose money on this, but in turn, you can end up getting some decent
reviews.
So it’s an option. It’s not the best, but it’s something that, you know, maybe if you have some money to
spend, you have some money to invest into this, you could consider sponsoring your posts and getting it
to the top. Just that you can start getting some reviews. Maybe once you get 5, 6, 7 reviews, you feel
like you don’t have to really have it sponsored anymore. Cause it will already do well on its own. But that
is one strategy to start, to get some reviews, to start, to get some sales, but keep in mind if you’re
sponsoring it, it’s costing you money. You’re probably not going to be making nearly as much. And in
some cases you might end up losing money, which is not the overall long-term goal.

Now the other option for you to do is to basically undercut everybody else Who’s selling the products so that you can
end up positioning yourself higher on the list and then eventually raise your prices.
Once you get those reviews. And once you get that kind of credibility this is a tactic that I’ve used for many, many years, And it works pretty well. The issue with this of undercutting, your competition is that
you might end up forcing your competition to also cut their prices. Because let’s say that everybody in
here selling cutting boards for, you know, $20, right? We’re seeing a lot of cutting boards for $25, $19,
right? We’re seeing a lot of cutting boards for those price ranges. Let’s say you go into here and you
start selling cutting boards for $12. What’s going to happen. You might sell a ton of cutting boards. Your
profit margins might be pretty bad and they probably are bad. You might only make like a dollar or two.
But now your competition is gonna look at that and say, well, wait a minute, we’re losing a lot of money
here because we could have been getting way more sales.

So they start to lower the prices as well, to compete with you. And then everybody kind of ends up
losing cause you drove the prices down. So you want to be careful with that. Really the strategy here is
low price for the first maybe dozen sales, the first 2000 sales, they write some reviews and you get some
sales going. Then you can raise the price. That’s a tactic that I’ve always used, but just be careful on how
long you leave that low price in there. I mean, we have brought items into the market where we’ve lost
money on the first a hundred items that we’ve sold. We’ve ended up losing money on purpose so that we
could position ourselves in a good spot on Amazon, a little bit of a risky move. But it’s something that, that
does work if you know what you’re doing.

All right, everyone. So I would love to go more in-depth on this. If you want to see an even longer
article, really getting into the nitty-gritty of like sourcing products and manufacturers and the types of
