How I used Amazon FBA to quit my 9 to 5 after six months selling

Step-by-step Guide to $50k (Revenue) Months

~Thread ~

First & foremost

A) Sign Up for an Amazon Seller Account

2 Options: Individual vs Professional

Sign up for an Individual Account first. This gives you access to Seller Central for Free.

When it’s time to start selling, switch to Professional ($40/mo)

Next I developed a process around Product Launch & repeated to scale a 6 Figure Business.

The process goes a little something like this:

1.Product Research
2.Product Design
3.Sourcing
4.Product Listing Creation
5.Launch

Step 1: Product Research

More important than what to go for..

Know what to avoid

Next, I developed an airtight 6 Pillar Framework I run each potential product through (see graphic)

Step 2: Product Design

Key to Winning on Amazon: Differentiation

Ask Yourself: How will my product be different than others?
-Material
-Appearance
-Functionality
-Packaging
-Product Listing What

Simple customization works best. Don’t try to reinvent the wheel.

Pro Tip: Before Finalizing, use Pick Fu to Poll audience on what they like

Step 3: Sourcing

Unless you want to be bold, you should be sourcing your products from Alibaba. Alibaba has both the resources & quality (long way from early 2000s)

KEY Alibaba Tip

Ensure each supplier you contact is both:
1.Utilizing Trade Assurance
2.A Verified Supplier

Supplier Negotiation

Suppliers are expecting negotiation, the price they initially quote is not final. Two negotiation tips:

1.Have them state their price first
2.Get all the information you need for a full order before sampling (reduces wastes of time/money)

Step 4: Product Listing Creation

Don’t cut costs here, professional copywriting and photography/video is key.

Many Amazon shoppers buy strictly off pictures/video.

Get them done right.

For you and/or your Copywriter, here’s the steps to create a listing that sells.

Note: if you need recs for Product Photo/Video, DM me and I’ll point you in the right direction.

Step 5: Launch

Primary Goal: Get Product to Page One

Steps to Launch

1.Amazon Advertising (Pay-per-Click)
2.Rebates: RebateKey Giveaways
3.Review Requester: Automated Email (Use Automated Service like Helium 10)

And that folks, is how it's done. Simple & effective to 6 (and eventually 7) Figures.
