4 Main Amazon Business Models
Retail Arbitrage
In this model, you go to retail stores and find products that are on a deep discount. You take the product and sell it on Amazon. The problem with this is it’s not a sustainable business model because you constantly need to go out to retail stores and look for products. It’s a good side hustle though for low-income companies or students.

Wholesale
In this model, you go to companies or manufacturers and you buy their product at a wholesale price and flip it on Amazon. While you can make money with wholesale on Amazon, there are three problems with this model. First, it’s getting too saturated. Second, there are established sellers that are just so far ahead. Third, a lot of the manufacturers are just going directly to Amazon.

Private Label
This is the most common one that new sellers are doing. It used to be extremely easy and it used to work really well. Basically, you find a product on Amazon that has high sales and low reviews. You can create your own private label version of this product. You slap your own brand on it. You go to (more…)

How to Sell on Amazon:

I Quit My 9-5 Job For Amazon

In the video, Ariana and I will share with you a review of Ariana’s 1st year of selling on Amazon. We will try to be completely transparent and honest as much as possible about everything

Biggest Mistakes
Ordering Too Much
Our first mistake was ordering too many units of the product. We ordered 2,000 units. The reason we did that is that once you ordered more units, the cost of the individual product goes down. However, one of the downsides is that there were some mistakes on the cards and we are stuck on selling those. One of the lessons here is that there are going to be mistakes in your product, but it’s not the end of the world. People are still going to buy it.

Expensive to Start
The process was a lot more expensive than we thought it would be. Shipping costs are major. Air shipping vs sea shipping makes a huge difference. If you are in a rush, air shipping is the best solution but it will have a greater cost. Sea shipping takes up to 6 weeks, but it is cheaper. If you have the time, do sea shipping.
