Amazon FBA For Beginners 2021 (Step by Step)
hey everyone welcome to the my
website Princetobateksingh
i'm going to be showing
you step-by-step
how to sell with
amazon fba now quick
note here we're not
selling you anything
there's no courses
there's no pitches
you don't have to worry
about us going
through here and just
telling you to buy
our like
thousand dollar course
look 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 we're
going to give you as
much information as
possible
in this Post so i recommend taking out
a pen
taking out a piece of
paper taking some
notes on this Post we'll leave some of
the show notes down
below but like i
said
we have nothing here to
sell you so just
enjoy this uh take some
notes and i
think it's gonna be
of quite a bit of value
for you so let's
get started here
uh but it's important to
note as well
that this is not a
get-rich-quick
type of idea uh 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
uh 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
dollars
from selling products on
amazon this is
very much a long process
so hopefully if you're reading this
Post 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 then launch 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
uh make a ton of money
within the next couple
of weeks it's
gonna be really
difficult to do that and
we don't to see
you lose your shirt uh
by getting in
over your head too
quickly
okay so let's start here
uh but first of
all let's let's just
discuss a couple of
things that we're
looking at here
in in the big segments
first of all
we're going to look at
how to find
products we're 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 the
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 that
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 in
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 be a
lot easier and
simpler once you get the
process rolling
so
if at any point you feel
intimidated
from this just know that
uh
it's going to take some
time okay but
you take one step at a
time you start to
build this knowledge
uh and and you really
can't win with
this so
let's start off by
understanding
fulfillment by amazon
amazon fba that's
what it stands for
it's fulfillment 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
with 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
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 shipping announce
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 it 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 wanna have to
pay an extra five
dollars and
ninety-five cents
for shipping so we
suggest going with
fba if you can
especially if the margins
are still
there 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 ten 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
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 i
would any time
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 just 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 i'm
thinking about selling
uh some type of uh
you know winter gloves
right and i'm
looking through here and
i'm just trying
to find something right
this is gonna 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 16.95
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
i don't know if we have
any discount
codes but we'll leave a
link to it down
below
just you can check it
out if you would
like to and i like i
said i don't think
that there is a discount
code but if
there is one
we will include it down
below um but
basically what jungle
scout does it's
this 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 an
absolute beauty
of a tool here but we
can see the
average price for winter
gloves
19.16 we can see the
average amount of
reviews
but then we can also see
the opportunity
score here
uh 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 uh 10 20
30 or 40 000 gloves per
month products
per month so they're
absolutely crushing
with that
but it's gonna 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
over to 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 and use
this 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
Post
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
paid 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 uh
that it doesn't matter
if i like it or
not
it doesn't matter if i
myself am 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 uh because
at the end of the day
you know if it's a bad
product you're
not gonna 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 is 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
products now once we do
that
we can go and look at
the average
monthly units sold
i would suggest going
for a product
that's selling at least
100
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 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 uh 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 getting it to
amazon
them shipping it out
they're taking fees
um and there's going to
be product
returns there's 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 um
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 five hundred
dollars
you're gonna get far
fewer sales on that
most people aren't gonna
be able to just
convert on cold traffic
so we're gonna
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
sofas in 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 if
we try to sell
cutting boards
everybody's selling
cutting boards it's
really hard to tap
into that because so
many people are
searching for it
so we're going to go for
something very
low to medium
competition
we 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
because we've set
our
different things here so
we're going to
wait for this to load
for just a second
and it looks like it
just loaded 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 um so what
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 those 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 Post
but let's say that 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
one thousand 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 this
why there are so many
gnomes being sold
here uh and
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 one quick note here
uh if so we're
going to use this as an
example for this
Post here
sourcing gnomes and
selling valentine's
gnomes but the problem
here is that i'm
filming this Post we're creating this
Post
uh 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 ships
them out into and
to build some reputation
there
so if you're going to do
something
seasonal like this you
you're going to want to
think many
months out right so
right now it's
january
i'm gonna start thinking
about maybe
fourth 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
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 uh
what we're really
looking at here though
is uh the spread here on
the different
products 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
uh for an example here
is well over
fifty thousand dollars 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 15.78
so we're probably not
going to become
multi-millionaires 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
alibaba so this is alibaba
and this is
where we're going to
source
a lot of our products
from this is going
to allow you to
connect directly with a
manufacturer or
in 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 a
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
um 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 is like 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
um and we're seeing that
the average
price is 15.78
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
uh is likely going to be
going towards
the cost of the product
so
perhaps five dollars or
less we would
want to have for the
product
one third of that goes
towards amazon
right amazon takes a lot
of fees
their 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 five
dollars then we have the
amazon fees
which could be another
five dollars or
more
and then hopefully the
other third can
be our profit which
would
be hopefully five
dollars in our pocket
for this
so let's see if this is
actually going
to happen well we can go
back over to
alibaba here
let's look for valentine
gnome
and let's see what we
can find here for
valentine gnome right so
let's let's look this up
here
so for valentine gnome
we're going to
have
a bunch of things pop up
here and this
is a interesting looking
creature of a gnome but
it looks like we
can get them for about
2.63 cents per piece
with a minimum
order of 500. now this
is probably from
a trading company
we can go through here
and 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 1.37
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
uh based off of this
right here it says
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 their
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 like to
do is pick five
different companies
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
uh reach out to them we
can contact them
and say hey
this is what i'm looking
for i'm looking
for a thousand of these
items i'm
looking for x
amount of these items uh
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 there a price for the
sample because
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 gonna 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 end
up just wiring
money to these companies
uh and
in a lot of cases
you're going to
do 30
up front 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 up front 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 uh for example
let's say that
we're not selling gnomes
but let's say
that we're selling like
workout
equipment
uh 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
that 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 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 fba
they've 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
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
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
in 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 c
right so if if you're
shipping products
by c we find that the
average price that
is going to run you from
just
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 um 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
by sea the problem here
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
to amazon by shipping it
by sea now the
faster way to do this
is by air the problem
with air though as
you'd 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 two
dollars per
pound
but of course like i
said it does depend
on the
overall space that the
product takes up
as well um now you're
also going to want
to make sure that you
have an f and skew
barcode on that so that
amazon can send
those out we can go
more in depth on that in
a later Post
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 the comments
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
with 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
then 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 the
different
uh things that they're
taking here
they're different fees
that amazon takes
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's 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 uh it looks
like
eight percent for
products with a total
sales of 10 or less and
then 15
for more items what
you're going to
notice though is that
the general trend
is that
these referral fees can
be about 15
of our total uh price
that we're selling
these items for so keep
that in mind
some can be lower closer
down to about
eight percent even in
some cases
computers only six
percent 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 because 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
uh if you just had a
title that was
valentine's day
gnome and that was it
there's no other
title to it you're going
to end up
missing out on a lot of
opportunity 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 keyword 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
expensive one that we
don't have here so
never mind
so once 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 um
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 like to do
is have all caps
for the first couple of
words
and then follow it up
right so 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 all
in caps 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 five or you
can use
up work 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 in
action so 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 people 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 a
uh 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 we
could bundle
these together and make
it one product
and see people who are
buying all three
of these they're paying
forty two
dollars we can end up
selling this for
less maybe thirty
dollars
as a bundle 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
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'd
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
how to tap into the
market basically how
to start selling right
because
a lot of people find
issues with this
they find it's very
difficult
to start to actually
sell 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 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 post
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 post
and getting it to the
top
just so you can start
getting some
reviews maybe once you
get five six
seven reviews you feel
like you don't
have to really have it
sponsored anymore
because it'll 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
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 uh everybody in
here selling
cutting boards for
you know 20 right we're
seeing a lot of
cutting boards for 25
dollars 19
right we're seeing a lot
of cutting
boards for those price
ranges let's say
you go in 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 they
probably are bad you
might only make
like a dollar or two um
but now your competition
is going to
look at us and say well
wait a minute
we're losing a lot of
money here because we 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
because 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 two
dozen sales
they write some reviews
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 uh where we've
lost money on the
first hundred items that
we sold
we've end up lost money
on purpose so
that we could position
ourselves in a
good spot
on amazon a little bit
of a risky move
um 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
tutorial
really getting into the
nitty-gritty of
like sourcing products
and
manufacturers and the
types of messages
that you send to those
manufacturers

instagram if you
guys want to connect a
little bit
i'll try to respond to
you as much as
possible thanks for reading the Post
like i said guys you
have to pay any
money for any of this
